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. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
