Hi,

I recently installed 4.5 from the CD, and while adding user "amar", I
set the primary group to wheel. But now when I try to do a "su -", I
am kicked out for not being in group wheel. Though FAQ 10.1 says that
one has to be manually added to group wheel if su - is needed, does it
mean that folks having primary group as wheel are denied? Did I miss
something very obvious?

Here is the transcript:
==========================================
$ id
uid=1001(amar) gid=0(wheel) groups=0(wheel)
$ su -
Password:
you are not in group wheel
Sorry
$ dmesg | head -10
