non-root

 

I updated centmin today, but prob still persist

Code:

login as: nonrootuser
Authenticating with public key "rsa-key-xxxxxx06"
Last login: Mon Jul 23 13:22:26 2018 from <myip>
mkdir: cannot create directory `/root': Permission denied
[nonrootuser@machine01 ~]$

 

I log in as nonroot and then do sudo su -
I assumed it's safer to not to let root to log in.
the thing is /root/centminlogs folder exists for some time now (from installation, updates, vhosting adds)

btw: what's the scoop with I have to change dir whne reruing centmin after udpate?
