What group does a regular user need to be part of in Fedora to use the 'screen' command? I can probably sudo it, but thought there was a group I could add the user to that would allow it. Am I wrong?



I'm running it just fine as a normal user. There's a group called screen, but I don't seem to be a member.
What error do you see when you try to run it?




This is what I get:

Cannot open your terminal '/dev/pts/5' - please check.


See if this helps:

Now that's interesting. I didn't google it thinking it was simply a needed group addition. What I don't get is why 1 FC6 server works and one doesn't. I can su into one user on a server and have no problems, but can't the same user on a different server. Hmm.

Thanks for the link though.  It does help.
