It's all on a closed = network so I'm not worried about security. I just want to practice = stuff. When I try to login in a root with the correct password, I get "Login = Incorrect". I expect this is happening because 'root' isn't allowed = remote access. So when I login as a normal user, I try to "su" and I get "su: Sorry". = Do I have to set some special permissions for this? Thanks
