I never said I wasn`t root when I ran install-strip.  What I said was (let 
me cut and paste it)
-----------
I just did a make then a make install-strip and at the end a root logon 
popped up.  I checked and yes, there was another root sh.
-----------                            ~~~~~~

As I run a dozen OS`s, including several Unixes the past 4.5 years I have 
never been notified of another root login on my console during an install 
before. It kind of surprised me.  When I checked with top etc it was 
there...there was another user login and even after a reboot this extra 
root login was still there.

What I`m asking is...is it normal during the vpopmail install for another 
root login to appear and why ?
