Unknown on 11:29 PM

If you want to gain the root access of ubuntu 10.04 then you are at the right place .

Today i will tell you step by step , how to root ubuntu 10.04 and gain unauthorized access.

First of all i want to tell you that by default you are not able to login as root in ubuntu 10.04 or any other linux distribution . Linux is not allowing anybody to directly root its distribution, because if you logged in as root and done something wrong in the root, then the whole operating system will be corrupted and get crash.

But you can login as root by sudo command.

It is very simple to root ubuntu 10.04 in GUI [Graphical User Interface]
mode,
If you really want to root ubuntu 10.04 then just follw these simple steps and try yourself:

Step 1

Open the terminal in Ubuntu by clicking on Applications then Accessories then select Terminal or simply  Type [Alt+Ctrl+T]

Step 2

Now type this command in terminal => ubuntuuser@ubuntuuser-desktop:~$ sudo passwd root

Step 3

 It will appear => [sudo] password for ubuntuuser:

Then type your current password in the terminal.

Step 4

Now it will apper => Enter new UNIX password:

Then type your new password for the root access then retype password again.

 Step 5

Now logout from the current session and login again by choosing other user account at login prompt .

Now in the place of username write root and password that you have created in above step.

And you have just done it. Enjoy the root access and do whatever you want to change in it but after finishing the administrative task you should return to the normal mode and be careful .
