normally in ubuntu you don't login as root, you login as a normal user and 
use sudo to do root tasks.

Ubuntu doesn't allow root to login directly by default. you can do sodo 
passwd and then set the password for root.

>> how to run LAN  sharing

do you mean that you want to make things on the ubuntu machine able to be 
accessed by other systems (and if so, are they other linux systems, 
windows systems, or ??), or are you wanting to access a fileshare that 
already exists on the network?

these can be done by users that are allowed to do sudo (the first user 
created has this ability), or by root.

when you configure the printer, one option is to share the printer over 
the network.
