I just got FreeBSD 2.1.7 working and I made myself an account during
the initial installation. However when I am logged in as this account
I can't use su. It gives the a kerberos error that I am not in the
proper group to be able to use the su command. I don't quite follow
what I must do to be able to use su from an account. Right now there
are only two accounts on my machine: 'root' and 'me'. What must I do to
allow 'me' to do an su.

thanks
