    Welcome friend!
    you can get root privileges using
    Code:
    su
    but it need root password.
    if not configured to require root password, this allows users to run programs with the security privileges of root promting for user password(not root).
    Code:
    sudo
    check if you can do this.
    Sorry, it was unintentional.
    You should have told me at least once and i could have fix it.
    thanks for reminding me.
