Hi there, I have a strange problem that has manifested itself recently. I am unable to log into ne of my boxes - either via ssh or local console.
SSH returns "<ip address> has closed the connection" immediately after issuing the "ssh2 command from another machine. A local login just quits - i.e. you enter a username at the login prompt and it just returns to the "user" login prompt - doesn't even ask for password. All services on the box are currently running fine, I just seem unable to get a shell.. This box is not internet facing and no other boxes are exhibiting this behaviour, so I am discounting an intrusion. If I boot the machine in single user mode (i.e. linux single at the lilo prompt) I can get into the machine and everything is OK until I either logout, or issue "init 2" to get to runlevel 2 (it's normal run-mode). The machine is running sarge on a Compaq Proliant SMP machine....I have had no problems until a few days ago when this started... Any ideas ... or any more infomation required? I would prefer not to rebuild the machine, but if necessary I suppose I will have to.. Cheers, Pete. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
