I'm attempting to run a command called 'vncpasswd' which forces me to type the password into a field that well I can't type in. It's locked. The same applies if I try running 'su' which is often used to grant the user root access, or access as another user. Neither the vncpasswd command or the su command will show you the password as you type it. This is to prevent someone from reading what you type over your shoulder, i.e. a security measure. However, even though you can't see what you type on the screen, it is still being recorded and it still works. Just type your passwords as required and hit the enter key and all will be well. -- MELVILLE THEATRE ~ Melville Sask ~ http://www.melvilletheatre.com
