Hi I am using Solaris 2.5.1 and I don't think there is a group 'wheel' in my system. I got this message in the console window when I enter the password, sun1% Oct 25 09:44:04 sun1 login: ROOT LOGIN ON console Oct 25 09:47:35 sun1 su: 'su root' failed for simklibm on /dev/pts/2

Hi rbobbitt There is 'ar.c' and 'ar.o' in the same directory as 'make', are these files the one needed or do I need to download the 'ar' from somewhere else, as I could not find 'ar' in the rest of my system. Thanks for your advice.
