Re: [cobalt-security] log files

Are you uploading the config file to a nuetral location, then SU'ing to root
and then copying the file over the original?

You must be root to edit the config files. Type SU and use your admin
password to become root user. You can obviously only do this through
telnet - you can't log in via FTP as root.
