I have a small problem but one that is causing me some grief. After logging in to local console (serial port) as root, I need to telnet into the platform and then su root to continue testing. Simple enough right, having done this a million times on *nix
Or is it? having created a user account to telnet in, I can login OK, but then attempting to su returns the following error:
-sh-2.05b$ su - root
Password:
su: cannot set groups: Operation not permitted
I've checked permissions on /etc/passwd, /etc/group
added suid sgid to busybox
chmod u+s /bin/busybox
chmod g+s /bin/busybox
but no luck so far. kudos to the expert who can solve this one!
TIA
