All;
This may be self inflicted, but the box is nearly locked down, and I
need a little help sorting it out.
Background:
I recently had a problem with the sshd user having been deleted... The
seeming result of a power outage...
With that restored, I set to cleaning up the rest of the mess.
As a closing act, I ran msec to clean up the permissions, etc., that
were probably gone bad.
Then I rebooted the box.
Now... It won't allow users to log in. I *CAN* log in as root, but not a
normal user.
Also, e-Mail stopped working, as did the web server.
So, I tried to run "msec 0" to just open the box up.
No joy.
Same for msec 1-3. (with reboots included to be sure all the changes are
set.
The errors I'm getting in /var/log/messages are:
Jan 11 10:30:30 <server> sshd[3503]: Accepted password for <user> from
xx.xx.xx.xxx port 33509 ssh2
Jan 11 10:30:30 ibu sshd[3505]: fatal: login_get_lastlog: Cannot find
account for uid 500
The x'd out address is the source address that I'm logging in from.
This happens for any account except root. The accounts DO exist. I even
tried creating a new account... Same thing.
I could really use some help.
Thanks in advance.
