Hello!

I have a Problem, SUing from a nonprivileged user in the wheel group to
root. Everytime i trie a su i get the simple error Message "Sorry.".
The access permissions for the password files are as followed:

	-rw-------  1 root  wheel   1154 Jun  7 23:41 /etc/master.passwd
	-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel   1016 Jun  7 23:41 /etc/passwd
	-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel  40960 Jun  7 23:41 /etc/pwd.db
	-rw-------  1 root  wheel  40960 Jun  7 23:41 /etc/spwd.db=20

And the password i typed in for root is correct. You are my last hope,
because nobody in many different newsgroups has an answer to this
question. Thank you.

Bye,


Egon Rath
