This is happening because login won't allow non-root logins while the system is booting up. It thinks the system is booting up because of the existance of the file /etc/nologin. This file is removed automatically when entering multi-user mode. Two things to check:
1. What is your default run level? This is in your /etc/inittab file. It should be 2. 2. Check /etc/rc2.d directory for the existance of S99rmnologin, it should be a symlink to /etc/init.d/rmnologin. If this is not the case, you will need to reinstall the sysvinit package. -- Kevin ----- Original Message ----- From: J.
