Incidentally, I still recommend you use sudo. Sudo gives you the benefit of not typing your root password. If you do the above, it's hardly more difficult to type 'sudo su -' to get your root shell, and if you enable password caching (or, in the case of desktops or similar systems NOPASSWD) you get to skip typing your password in at all at least part of the time. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
