I have used the terminal very less in my MAC and now I am trying to learn do things from there as it is mostly based on Unix commands but the problem I am facing is that most of the things I am unable to do saying that there is no privilege. So can you tell me how to get the root access from it? What command I should use for it?
Yes it is possible to get the root privileges by using the root account for accessing all the needed commands directories because root user is the only user who is given all privileges to browse any Mac OS X directory, unfettered and unrestricted. To enable the root user in your terminal just follow the simple steps given below,
STEP 1: Open the terminal from your Mac.
STEP 2: Now type in the command sudo passwd root.
STEP 3: This will allow you to set the password for the root user, so the next line it will ask for the new password which you can give the one as desire.
STEP 4: So once it is done. You can close and open the terminal again and type the command sudo and press enter.
STEP 5: You will be asked for the password which you have set, just type in the password to go into the root user.
STEP 6: Now in the same terminal you will be given the root privileges where you can do all the needed changes which you need without any restriction.
If you are facing any other problem in your Mac with the commands executing in the terminal just leave your queries here to get the fix as soon as possible.
