</span>Hi, Flavia.<br>
<br>
No, just get a "root" shell instead - e.g. on my laptop "beluga":<br>
<br>
> ajt@beluga:~$ sudo -i<br>
> [sudo] password for ajt:<br>
> root@beluga:~#<br>
<br>
After that, you have root authority and don't need to use "sudo".<br>
<br>
I normally access Bio-linux on terminal servers via "ssh" or "x2go" and<br>
update them without any problems - The only time you need to access the<br>
physical console of a Bio-Linux server is if you need to boot single<br>
user to run diagnostics, or do a clean install. In fact, you can do a<br>
remote install of Bio-Linux if someone boots the remote server from a<br>
DVD or USB-stick locally for you and enables "ssh" for the 'live' user.<br>

</span>I recently did remote installations of Bio-Linux on some servers at the<br>
Mario Negri Institute in Milan, from my office here in Scotland, with<br>
help from my friend in Milan who booted their servers from a Bio-Linux<br>
USB-stick and enabled "ssh" for the 'live' user so that I could login.<br>
<br>
I've used this approach many times before to do remote diagnostics and<br>
disaster recovery of Bio-Linux running on remote servers around Europe.<br>
<br>
With an IPMI connection you can access the remote console directly, but<br>
it is a serious security vulnerability to expose IPMI on the Internet.<br>
<br>
Let me know how you get on?<br>
<br>
Bye,<br>
