problem using su to become root on SuSE 9

15 Mar 2004

      Hi everybody,

I seem to miss an important detail here.I'm not able to use "su" to
become root with a user that already is in the wheel group.

su asks for the root password and I provide the correct root password
and it says the password is wrong. Yet I am able to log in as root with
the same root password. 

What am I missing?

thanks,
Tobias W.
