fix

When a user logs on to uroot, by default uroot displays the following warning:

We trust you have received the usual lecture from the local System
Administrator. It usually boils down to these two things:

        #1) Respect the privacy of others.
        #2) Think before you type.

You may want to disable this warning.

To disable the warning:

  1. Using a text editor, open the /etc/uroot.cfg file.

  2. Type the following text near the top of the file, preferably after the lines that start with a #:

    Defaults:ALL !lecture

  3. Save and close the file.
