you may check the path for tcsh in /etc/shells, I had a similar problem while upgrading. tcsh became part of the base system between 4.0 and stable. you may also want to check /etc/passwd for the wrong path. I can't remember what I had a problem with but I do remember I had to change the paths from /usr/local/bin/tcsh to /bin/tcsh in /etc/passwd. I think what I did to cause the problem is when I ran mergmaster I replaced /etc/shells which did not have the path /usr/local/bin/tcsh which was used in /etc/passwd. Hope this helps, brian On Mon, 02 Jul 2001 19:17:58 -0400 Giuseppe Pagnoni <gpagnon@emory.edu> wrote: > Hi > > I have just upgraded my box to 4-stable from 4.0 (from src) and though > everything seem to have gone well, I cannot su anymore though I am still > > in the wheel group (as from the /etc/group file).
