In-Reply-To: <199802240250.SAA13615@dingo.cdrom.com> Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-hackers@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I am new to FreeBSD so call me crazy..... I am trying to add a user that can SU to root like on a linux or solaris machine. I understand the user has to be in the wheel group but what else am I doing wrong. It always tells me I am not in a group that can su to root. I am using DES. What do I have to do? (Besides buy a book) I am just evaluating this OS and I can't even make a user.... haha Thanks in advance.
