Hello.
This may seem like a stupid question and I feel stupid for asking it but how do I log onto the root user? I'm using Ubuntu and I don't seem to be able to do anything with any programs because to do that you have be logged in as root, but when I tried logging in root on the main login page it said "System Administrator is not allowed to log in from this page"... Yes I am n00b. Help me please! Am I missing something that's blatantly obvious?!?! |
