Is this a remote system in pain managed by myself or is this my desktop system I happen to be logged on as a non-root user? I don't see multiple xterms as an argument to running diagnosics and other utils as non-root. The only time I would like to become non-root on these systems is to see whether there are any ACL issues with what I just fixed. -- Axel.Thimm at ATrpms.net
