Quick question about this change: Is the first user given sudo privileges now when the root account is enabled (eg: first user always has admin privileges irregardless of root account status)? IIRC when the root account is enabled the first user needs to be granted permissions with visudo. I'm not up-to-date with the new installation procedure though! ;-) Cheers, Nicholas
