Rick, Do you know about the 'root' user (also known as superuser)? Look it up in Mac Help (Finder). --help topic & support article Caution: "The root user should only be used for specific administration or monitoring tasks. After completing a task as the root user, log out of Mac OS X and log back in using a normal or admin- istrator user account."
