Is this a restriction of freeBSD? Currently, I am able to login as myself but not able to 'su root' with the correct root password: "not in the correct group to su root" I made a mistake when setting up my user account during freeBSD installation. I cannot get to the system console 'til Monday. Is there any way to get around this? Please help, Thanks.
