What works for me is editing the /etc/pam.d/su file. The last line of that file loads pam_xauth. It is a session module. Reverse the order so that it is put before the pam_stack module. Then you can automagically use X as root. (It internally uses xauth) Paul -- Paul de Vrieze Researcher Mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Homepage: http://www.cs.kun.nl/~pauldv -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
