Hi all, iŽm following this freeBSD chat for a long time and i also wish to submit a question regarding a FreeBSD Version 7.0, which i installed yesterday. After logging in as root, i started with startx and Gnome and KDE3. >From there i wanted to configure Network, DNS etc., but it(System popup) >says, that i donŽt have rights to configure as there is no permisions for >that;-( , although directly logged as ROOT! But this problem does not arises with the FreeBSD 6.2, which iŽm running for a more than a year!!.
What should do i do? I appreciate for an positive solution.
