On Debian you enter the root pw at setup. You don't on Ubuntu, but when I setup a new Ubuntu system, all I do is create a root password w/ sudo and from then on it works like any other system with a root account. Is that so surprising, or did I miss something? Hal -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
