Hi all, I've been reading around and some of us seems not to know about
login as root and the benefits of it. So here are how to log as root,
and if some of you feels like continuing this thread maybe talking about
how it can help...
First make sure you are online
Then go find the application "NetInfo Manager" (in your utilities),
Once launched find the menu : Domain->Security->Authenticate
It will ask you your admin Password
then go back to the menu omain->Security->Enable Root user
it will tell you that you need to reauthenticate to make any changes
Quit the Application
"The root user is activated"
Now you need to go in "System Preferences" and locate "Login"
Select "Login Window"
Make sure to select "Name and password entry feilds"
also Automatically log in should be off.
Log out and in the username feild just type "root"
and your password when prompt
You are now logged as a root user with SUPER POWER over your Mac OS X
Use them wisely.
