i have a big problem with my Ubuntu PC.

When i try sometigng need sudo or su, nothing is working and the OS Upgrade too, when i write the root password to the su command i have a "autentication error", same in the upgrades and when i try the sudo command to install something i don't have error message and nothing happen.

I was tring to make samba work when all goes wrong.

Some help!?

Thanks!

  2. I can't access recovery mode...
  3. With the autologin i can access the system, if i logout and try to login again return the autentication error

It may be an issue with pam. Can you include the contents of

/etc/pam.d/sudo
/etc/pam.d/su

As a side note, you may have more luck with this question in a forum. You are probably going to have to post a lot of information specific to your system setup to solve this.
