Hi again,
Aside from my myriad problems with Ghostscript/printing (somebody
help me please! It's driving me nuts!), I was also wondering about
one other thing.
Why can't I telnet into my mac as root? When I try, it says:
myname# telnet 153.35.235.220
Trying 153.35.235.220...
Connected to 1Cust92.max5.san-francisco.ca.ms.uu.net.
Escape character is '^]'.
NetBSD/mac68k (myname.my.domain) (ttyp5)
login: toor
toor login refused on this terminal.
login:
Of course this happens on all the ptys. I can also just login to my normal
account and su to root.
Can this be fixed, so that I can telnet to the mac as root?
Thanks for any tips.
-Adam
(P.S. PLEASE help with the ghostscript/printing problem! Thanks again.)
