Alright all,
First and foremost, you ladies and gents have been *amazingly*
responsive and helpful; for that I thank you.
We've gotten the "root" issue resolved. I fiiinally spoke to
someone that was familiar enough to log a request for good ole
"single user mode" to simply blast the

we still have some (linux) servers with ThePlane
Amusing to hear they are more secure on FreeBSD than linux although its
a shame that didnt work for you. They didnt enable you to use sudo
instead of su or something like that did they?
I'm afraid i cant recommend any FreeBSD hosting companies though

For most versions of plesk i've come across (I look after a load of
linux servers with it installed,) if you have the plesk admin then you
have root. Look for the modules option, then look for the add modules,
this should let you upload a shell script which is then run as root

Also, if you follow the thread, you'll note that we've asked for root
several times. Yet, they keep asking us for the root password so
that they can make changes. A lot of canned responses, etc.

Tom,
Again, Plesk just came with the server config we asked for. We
didn't ask for Plesk, we *asked* for the specific hardware. Plesk
was "free". *rolls eyes*

No, I don't necessarily need Plesk; although we will be selling
hosting. It simply came with the default configuration for the
server. My plan is to manage most everything from the Unix shell. I

Hi All,
I recently purchased a co-located server from Cedant and need to
enable the root user. It's running FreeBSD 6.1. Currently there
appears to be no root user enabled on the server. I can't even "su"
to root. I've tried using "pw" to add my user to "wheel" but I
receive a warning
