If you have pam on your system, then it broken '/etc/pam.d/system-local-login' might be the cause, as well as user-specific files there. And if that's not the case, try commenting out pam modules like mod_access, which can add additional access restrictions. Also, you can probably tell if pam is the cause of a problem by commenting out all the required modules from whole authentication chain (usually, commenting out everything in system-auth will do) - it should allow any access w/o password, and it's probably not pam if it doesn't... can't really think what else it might be, though. -- Mike Kazantsev // fraggod.net
