Does anybody else have any thoughts about why my Server Tools no longer prompt for the root password. Now they only throw up a message box saying insufficient rights. I've tried every keyword I could think of to browse archives and documentation but I've not come up with anything.
Which server tools? Something like system-config-httpd?
Are you trying the ones in /usr/bin?
Paul.
Thanks.
