 Hey guys, wondering if you can help me w/ this problem.  I've searched for
 an answer, but i couldn't seem to find much of one.

 When trying to su from my user account to root, i get incorrect password
 error.  However, i am certain that the root password i'm entering is
 correct, as i can log in under root if i logout/login.

 Any ideas?

 Thanks,
