Haha ... you're so honest. If you want access to /etc/master.passwd, you'll have to be root. If you're telling the truth, and you have legitimate reason to want this, then you need to contact whoever has root access to that machine and get their cooperation. If you're trying to get master.passwd on a machine that you have no root access on, they you'll have to break root on that machine, and this is the wrong forum to ask questions about how to do that. -- Bill Moran Potential Technologies http://www.potentialtech.com
