Hiya, I just installed freeBSD 4.5 over ftp, after downloading the 2 floppies and running them on a spare machine. I`am very impressed on how easy it was :-). I have machine up and running now but have a few things wrong that I don`t understand. 1) A created a "mark" user, so that I`m not logged in as root all the time. The machine is on an isolated lan so I`m not to worried about security, But I`d prefer not to be able to login over ssh straight into root. So I log in as mark and try to su up to root and I get this. "su: you are not in the correct group (wheel) to su root." How do I fix this? 2) /stand/sysinstall all of a sudden starting display the characters all screwy. I didn`t play with the fonts ( although I have now in an attempt to fix it ) the up and down arrow keys now exit the menus rather than more up and down the selection. It`s a bit odd.. I have to use the + and - keys on the numeric keypad to move up and down. What have I screwed here? Thanks...
