Hi, List I find myself blocked when I try to su from a normal user to root, even if the password is absolutely correct. I guess this must have something to do with having made some typo when entering passwords. The username must have been blacklisted since then. I looked up man pages of su and suauth to find a way to lift the restriction. However, there isn't such a file "/etc/suauth" in my system. What's the mechanism behind this (the su blockage)? What's the correct way to solve my problem? Thanks & regards Xinhao -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
