Telnet as a user in the wheel group and use the "su" command to become superuser. If you absolutely want to enable root access by telnet, and you're aware of the *RISKS*, edit /etc/ttys and add "secure" after all the ttyp* entries. >(2) I want to use tcsh on FreeBSD-3.1. But I can not run tcsh (tsch: >command not found). Install tcsh... Look at the ports. If you don't know what the ports are, I suggest you to read the handbook at www.freebsd.org. >(3) I want to run FTP as a normal user (not as anonymous user). How can I >do so? If you installed the system correctly, FTP works by default. --- Stefano Riva Software Engineer - Systems Administrator Informazioni Editoriali I.E.
