Hi, I'm trying to run aide to check the db but this error happens ? linux:/ # aide --check -V Couldn't open file /var/lib/aide/aide.db for reading linux:/ # cd /var/lib/aide/ linux:/var/lib/aide # ll total 24172 drwx------ 2 root root 80 Dec 22 21:50 . drwxr-xr-x 36 root root 920 Dec 19 21:24 .. -rw------- 1 root root 24724849 Dec 22 22:29 aide.db What do I do to get it to read the db file?

su to root, or otherwise make yourself root ... I think. ( You *could* even use the filesmanagere w/ Super User permissions kmenu --> system --> filemanager super User mode. OF course no matter what way you choose , you need the root password.. That's a "good thing" -- j afterthought: Who is General Failure and why is he reading my disk?

Many thanks so easy that was ;) I wonder how I missed it..? Because when I tried su - then pass no joy... but when I tried another term and went in as root not a problem reading the db file. -- Dre :-) arawak <arawak@blueyonder.co.uk>
