Re: SLES10 Client
Hello Everyone, I am now able to logon to the root userid on my "full-service server" SLES10 SP2. I will start "yast" tomorrow.

I need some clarification here. Are you trying to SSH to a Linux system that you are in the process of installing? If so, there is no default password. During the setup process before you SSH in, you are asked for a temporary root password to be used. That is the password you need to use when you SSH in to enter the "yast" command. The prompt is right after you select the "display type."

Re: SLES10 Client
Hello again. Well, I tried both the starter system default password and the new password I changed it to to logon on as root for the full-service starter system from my SSH client and neither one works. Also, when I logo as root, it does asks for a password. Is there a different default password for root for the full-service server?

Re: SLES10 Client
Remember this is a sample directory entry, it can be tailored to look like pretty much anything you like. The secondary user can or can not be used if you like. The secondary user provides another point of control for the virtual machine to receive messages and issue commands. The additional CPU is also optional, and if it is not *absolutely* required for the workload I would suggest removing it and changing the numeric value in the MACHINE statement to 1.
