The loans are essential for people, which are willing to start their own organization. By the way, it's comfortable to receive a consolidation loan.

Note that reports are that 10.5.8 fixes this issue

Wow - Thanks for posting this. I have an Intel MacBook Pro, and just updated from 10.5.6 to 10.5.8. As soon as the update took effect, my CPU temperature soared to 200 F. I discovered the su.startup process running like mad logging errors to system.log - "can't find command ps/can't find command sleep"

I couldn't find any information on this su.startup script, until I came across your post. I was so glad to see what the script was for. I killed it and reran it, and it seemed to have made the changes to /etc/authorization just like you posted.

Now I'm happy again! Thank you so much.

Well done - and this applies to machines on which you run WGM to manage local machines (localhost) vs servers too.

Yep, making the changes to /etc/authorization works, thanks for this.

sadly, this is an issue on Intel machines using managed printers, too.

Dave, yeah soon they’ll give us something called ‘Snow Leopard’ that doesn’t run on PPCs at all

Good catch!

Clearly, this is all part of their ingenious strategy to make us all run out and replace our PPC machines with something newer and shinier...
