RE: I can't find command su.exe


usually under win2k you would use "runas"

under the bash it doesn't seem to work. it says:
echo mode cannot be activated. yet i'm not sure what
this means.

maybe I should change to the cmd.exe ;-) ?

anyone a idea how to activate the "echo mode" ?

best regards
Timo
