Yeah, I have found out that on my /etc/groups file there's a group called wheel where is the &quot;admin&quot; user. So I just put the other user there and things worked. Thanks.

Hi:<br />
<br />
On my server the user &quot;admin&quot; is the only one who can authenticate as Root. I need another one else to have this power. How to do? <br />
<br />
But listen, I don't want to change it during a Telnet/SSH session, through &quot;su newuser&quot;, I need to have it fix always when I logon as user &quot;newuser&quot;.<br />
<br />
Thanks a lot.<br />

Hi:

On my server the user "admin" is the only one who can authenticate as Root. I need another one else to have this power. How to do? 

But listen, I don't want to change it during a Telnet/SSH session, through "su newuser", I need to have it fix always when I logon as user "newuser".

Thanks a lot.

Another User as Root
