ok, this is very weird question.

i cant login via root, or any other user name on the
system.
im thinkin its something like /etc/nologin
but that allows root to login.
so i try rebooting in to single user mode, 
i use passwd to change the password of root
then i boot in to init 3 and still i cant login as
root
it exits out just as like a /etc/nologin was there,..
what would cause , or how can i make root not be able
to login form consols,.?
is it related to pam?

im sorry but i no longer have access to this machine,
so i cant tell u if there is /etc/nologin file or not,
or if there is anything un usuall in /etc/pam.d/ but 
if i wanted to ristrict access of root login form
consol, how would i do that?
i know about normal users, thats from /etc/nologin,
but i didnt know you could lock out root.
please explain.
