Hi, I just installed FreeBSD on an older system I have, just to try it out, and would like to be able to telnet into it, and configure things remotely. Is is possible to make it so that I can login from root, or that another account has many of the same pr velages as root, such as modifying configuration files? Also, when I login to through telnet, it connects, and sits for about 1-2 minutes before I get a login dialog. After this, data transfers very quickly. I get the same problem when logging into FTP, the client connects, but then times out. FreeBSD giv s me some message about "icmp-response bandwidth limit 201/200 ppi." Does this have anything to do with the problem, and what can I do about it?
