On my Debian box, I don't have to be root, but my username (dpavlin) has to be in group uucp (cu is part of uucp package). This can be done using $ usermod -a -G uucp dpavlin after logout/login you should be in uucp group which can be checked with: $ uid=1000(dpavlin) gid=1000(dpavlin) groups=10(uucp) After that, you can access cu without root priviledges, and if you want to use it as root, you would probably need to add root to uucp group. Hope this helps. -- Dobrica Pavlinusic 2share!2flame [EMAIL PROTECTED] Unix addict. Internet consultant. http://www.rot13.org/~dpavlin
