Historically adm is the owner of the file system, whereas eve is the host owner (i.e. the initial user at boot). "bootes" is the traditional host owner and is normally added to the adm group (check /adm/users for detail). The easiest way to interact with the system as eve is to use the console. If you're running a default system, this should be all that is needed. Cheers, Steve --001a1139872e79963d050e3aaeed Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable

I need t= o access to /adm/timezone to change the timezone.

How do I log as user adm ?

I use the standard plan9.iso image downloaded form ATT web site.
I have not set any password. Glenda is automatically logged in.
I've tried auth/changeuser but get "/mnt/key/adm permission denied= " in return.

I'm new to plan9. Read ATT docs, but I have not understand how to set password, and how to log as another user?

Can someone help me ?

Short answer: you= don't.

Historically adm is the owner of the f= ile system, whereas eve is the host owner (i.e. the initial user at boot). = "bootes" is the traditional host owner and is normally added to t= he adm group (check /adm/users for detail). The easiest way to interact wit= h the system as eve is to use the console. If you're running a default = system, this should be all that is needed.
