This is probably a dumb question.

I need to add a user that can su to root.  So....

I add the user with adduser, invite the user into the wheel group (GID 
0) then add the user to the wheel group in /etc/group

su still fails.  What am I missing?  It's go to be something really dumb.

Thanks for any help.

Dan
