Alright all, First and foremost, you ladies and gents have been *amazingly* responsive and helpful; for that I thank you. We've gotten the "root" issue resolved. I fiiiiiiinally spoke to someone that was familiar enough to log a request for good ole "single user mode" to simply blast the root password. I had root access within 15 minutes. It turns out that even the root password they had on hand was wrong so they were forced to resolve the issue. I am now all-powerful. . .well on that server anyway. ;) I will likely be keeping Plesk around in the short term in order to allow "lower" admins to easily set up a few clients, but its days are numbered. Thanks again for all your input/help. Best Regards, Michael On Jul 17, 2007, at 5:54 AM, Julian H.
