Nope, AFAIK. The Windows equivalent is normally "Administrator" or in some special cases SYSTEM (this has ALL the powers posible). But there's no difference running as Administrator (as i do normally) or SYSTEM :( Administrator has usually the necesary permissions to do anything (SYSTEM is used in some especific situations) >> >> With no visible difference (I tried SYSTEM, Administrator and root, >> all of which are in Administrators group) >> >> IMHO the problem seems to be on the taper/driver FATAL reading result >> from >> taper: Software caused connection abort > Taper quit, because it is not setuid root. That's why. [EMAIL PROTECTED] /usr/local/libexec $ ls -al taper -rwsr-sr-x 1 root None 577611 Aug 18 10:19 taper [EMAIL PROTECTED] /usr/local/libexec $ Tried with SYSTEM and Administrator as owner but no change. If there's no reason appart from taper thinking it has no enough privileges: Is there some way to fool/convince taper is running suid-root ? If there's a subtle need that taper needs to fulfill to run properly: 2.- Can I have a more verbose taper information, so i can get a workaround or? Thanks again :-)
