Unfortunately, the standard VINES distribution is much more limited than
Convergent's implementation with regard to UNIX access.  You can get access
to the UNIX side of the VINES server by purchasing the "VINES APPLICATIONS 
DEVELOPMENT TOOLKIT" for $1495, but even this has limits.  It only allows you
to login under the username local (NOT root), and you cannot add device drivers
or do other root-like things.  Sorry.  -Scott
