First, when you respond, make sure you cc the list and don't just send a message back to an individual. It lets others follow the thread and possibly respond and it also gets responses in the archive. The other thing I mentioned, and I think some else did to is that you must be in the wheel group. So, put yourself in the wheel group and then try it. If you are unable to do that - eg do not have sufficient access to do it, then you aren't allowed to use su either. Groups are in /etc/group ////jerry > > Thanx! > > _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
