i am unable to su to root from my bdrosen account.
i edited the /etc/group file to add myself to wheel and
it works, but whenever i next log in i get a mesage
about me being in too many groups and it appears that
it gets rid of the entry so that i can't su.

also reactivate is causing me some annoyance.

i always get these messages:
 No Hesiod information available for livewire.mit.edu
 No Hesiod information available for livewire.mit.edu

is there any way to avoid this other than getting hesiod
info added for my host?i  ie hack the scripts?
has anyone done this ?


Brett
