I am able to access the FreeBSD machine over my LAN as a user, but not as root. This is true for both ftp and telnet. I can access it fine as root, either ftp or telnet, when I plug in the old HD with the successful build. I can't find anything I'm doing differently with the new HD. The ftp connect as root is rejected outright, yet a user connect works fine. After I first connect via telnet as a user and attempt su, the response is "you are not in the correct group (wheel) to su root." I'm using 4.10. Help please? Jay O'Brien Rio Linda, CA USA
