Hi,
Well, although I don't live in the US, their laws have surprised me from

However, I read this as:

2) Don't sniff packets not belonging to you.
With encrypted e-mail channels, communications are still between your ISP

It depends on the login manager you're using.

Hello:
Being a newbie I had the same problem that you had I couldnt log onto X with the root
account. This is actually meant to be that way. The reason being is that if you want
to do any system administration you should log in with a regular account and use the
"SU" command as you mentioned be

What login manager's do you use?
In GDM (Gnome Desktop Manager) you should to set this option before you
can login as root:
( /etc/gdm/gdm.conf )
AllowRoot=true
and next type /etc/init.d/gdm restart
Then you should be able to login as root in gdm.

Hi,
My system is running Debian 3.0 (Woody) Linux.
I use this Linux system as the gateway for my home LAN. It has 2 interfaces
eth0 and eth1.
eth0 - Uses DHCP to connect to the ISP
eth1 - Uses static IP address (10.10.10.10)
Now I want to switch the home LAN to DHCP environment

Hi,

use su and switch to root, but no matter what I tried, I can't login to t
