Login as root on Fedora Core 9

[Doner, Leslee]

I previously had Fedora Core 6 and could login as root with no problems. On Fedora Core 9 although I set the root password and can successfully use it to get to System Administration settings, when I do the following:

login root
<enter my root password>

Login incorrect

 What needs to happen first?

Many thanks,

  Leslee
