I am trying to login as root from a remote machine but get
     root login refused on this terminal.               

If I su i get
      su: kerberos: not in root's ACL.
      su: you are not in the correct group to su root. 
even though kerberos is turned off.
I read someone said su was already setup for kerberos... is there a way to
unkerberos it?

please help :-)
