How do I enable root user within Lion? I've looked online, and I've been instructed to launch the 'Director Utility', but I cannot find this ANYWHERE in Lion. It's not in my Utilities folder. Can anyone offer any advice as to how to enable the root login? Thanks.

Directory Utility.app resides in /System/Library/CoreServices/. It still shows the command to enable root.

Be well.
