what is the root password in mac os x?

no, idea,

but here is a command to change it:

sudo bash

and put your passwd

then do passwd root

thanks Gaz!

installing Midnight commander in Mac OS X 10.5.7

I installed fink from http://sourceforge.net/projects/fink/files/
Then in terminal started
fink install mc
mc

it gives error:
dyld: Library not loaded: /sw/lib/libintl.1.dylib
Referenced from: /sw/bin/mc
Reason: image not found
Trace/BPT trap

to fix it I replaced link
ln -s /sw/lib/libintl.3.4.3.dylib /sw/lib/libintl.1.dylib
as suggested in http://www.claws-and-paws.com/node/1266

and now it works fine.
