to gain write access in root folder
hi
i am using ubuntu 11.04 ,but when i try to save a file to root folder i don't have permission for that. Basically when i try to access the root through terminal it asks for a password which i don't know ,so how can i know that password. |
The password is your users password.
Kind regards |

And if you want further advice on how to blow your system's head off, through the careless use of super-power, feel free to inquire further. (What's an ordinary user doing on the "sudoers" list, anyhow?)

I Know this is solved but here is an easier way.
Open Terminal and type in sudo nautilus (Location of your folder) For Example: sudo nautilus /bin/ |
