Logging in as owner

skutle · 09-27-2009, 08:08 PM

I am trying to install a messenger with webcam... It tells me to save the file in etc/yum.repose.d but even when i log in as an administrator it says i must log in as owner to save file there. Is there a way to save the file or how do i log in as owner. I log in by going to terminal typing su and entering the correct root pass

Try su - (su space dash) instead of just su. su gives you root's power with the user's path, but su - gives you root's power and root's path.

I also suspect that it should be /etc/yum.repos.d (no e).
