Dace" To: questions@freebsd.org Subject: Call me stupid, but... Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-questions@freebsd.org Precedence: bulk in playing around with FreeBSD (recompiled the kernel, changed my login banner, etc), I decided that I'd like to see a wheel group, so I made one. I then proceeded to ad myself to the wheel group (GID 10), but didn't change my default login GID (0). I also forgot to add myself back into /etc/group as part of the now-root(GID 0) group. BTW, security on FreeBSD seems nice and tight, as now I can't su to root and because I can't login via telnet (I'm at home now, not at work) I'll have to either have someone at work fix my broken setup, or...is there by any chance some kind of "change group" command under FreeBSD? My suspicion is that there isn't one because one isn't needed, and since I'm not in /etc/group as part of the GID 0 group I'm SOL. Anyone? | Adam W.
