Coming from Mac OS X, there is a possibility for every ordinary user to open Terminal and type in 'login' to change to a different user account.
When I do this with Ubuntu, it provides the following error message:
login: Cannot possibly work without effective root
Is there any way to remedy this? Which file do I need to edit and with what to enable the use of this command (even for a standard user)?
su username
command.su <username> -
- note the hyphen.
