Clone5k Posted November 22, 2002 Share Posted November 22, 2002 Log on as root or type su then enter, and type in your root password Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mezz Posted November 22, 2002 Share Posted November 22, 2002 As what Clone5k said, to use su and keep one terminal window open at all the time with root ready. Or, you can use the sudo that will allow your regular users have the more access. Check in the man su and man sudo for the more details. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
