FW: Request to mailing list freebsd-hackers rejected

[James Hicks]

Per instructions from the moderator below i'm making this post to the 
free-bsd questions mailing list.


I'm building a samba server. I have an XP laptop using putty via ssh to 
remotley administer. I cannot use putty to logon as root directly. If I 
logon as my regular user I cannot su/sudo in as root. I tried modifying the 
sshd_config file with AllowUsers root at ip. This didn't work. Any suggestions? 
Im somewhat new to UNIX and nery new to FreeBSD, so my indepth knowledge is 
not the best.

James
