Why do you need root for that? Can't you Ctrl-Alt-F1 to get a new virtual console (text window), log in, and change your own password? Or does KDE look up your password only once, and continues to compare to the same password even after you've changed it? -- Nadav Har'El | Tuesday, Apr 23 2002, 11 Iyyar 5762 [EMAIL PROTECTED] |----------------------------------------- Phone: +972-53-245868, ICQ 13349191 |I want to be a human being, not a human http://nadav.harel.org.il |doing -- Scatman John ================================================================= To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
