I've read the archives, FAQs, man pages, and I feel really stupid. All I get si "sorry" when trying to su. I've deleted and added users again and again, added them to wheel, and checked the login.conf file and all that. I'm left with the thought that it is another broken bit from the CD. (There are files on it that will not uncompress and install but will if I pull them in via ftp.) I do not know which way to look or for what file/program bit to scrutinize. If anyone has an idea... I won't be mad if you respond with; "you fool, look at..." ;-) Thanks, John To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
