- I have finally decided it is a good idea to not log in all the time as
- root... Too easy to make mistakes. Unfortunately, I can only use Minicom
- as root. I have put my non-root account info in the minicom.users file,
- and the permissions all seem to be set correctly. When I type
-
- minicom
-
- as any normal user, I get the humurous but not very informative response:
-
- You do not exist. Go away.
-
- Any suggestions????
-
- Thanks,
