There's no need to use "useradd". You can enable it with "sudo passwd". But there's no need to enable it, you can use "sudo -i" to run commands as root without prepending "sudo " to every one of them. There's a problem with booting into the rescue and emergency targets when root's disabled. In previous versions of Fedora/systemd, you could change "rescue.service" and "emergency.service" to run "sulogin --force" instead of "sulogin" but "sulogin" has been replaced by "systemd-sulogin-shell" and the latter doesn't seem to understand "--force" (so I'm using "sulogin"). _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
