Hi All, I've just installed FreeBSD 6.1 and listed myself as a member of the wheel group during the add users portion of the installation. For some reason I have not put a finger on yet I cannot shutdown the system "do not have permission" to effect the command. Went back as root on a later session and re-entered my name in /etc/group to the wheel account to no avail, anybody got an idea as to where I need to look? Thanks, Tommy2
