Ha--when I first got online in late '94, my ISP introduced the internet
as being comprised of 3 main parts: email, the world wide web, and

Thr first two commands show how to log in to your admin account with su.
You had previously been using ssh for that. That works too, but I'm
just giving you this method in case you had ssh enabled just for that.
