Hey *, this morning I tried to log into my freebsd 4.6 release box and was refused (SSH 2.9 sent back the passwd prompt and denied me). I called someone else and they tried, and were refused too. I got in via the console and reset my user and the root passwd and could ssh in successfully. I'm thinking that the /etc/master.passwd file may have been corrupted. Is there any way to check this?
Also, I found some strange output in /var/log/messages.0.gz on the machine that locked up. There is an identical machine (same hardware and config) that did *not* have any of this stuff. The last line in the message below (the "Device not configured") is repeated hundreds of times. I've pasted it below ... does anyone know what this indicates? I tried google, but found nothing conclusive. ================================================================ Jul 3 10:00:00 mas02 newsyslog[14137]: logfile turned over Jul 3 10:50:32 mas02 /kernel: (da0:ahc0:0:0:0): Invalidating pack Jul 3 10:51:29 mas02 /kernel: (da0:ahc0:0:0:0): SCB 0x11 - timed out Jul 3 10:51:29 mas02 /kernel: ahc0: Dumping Card State while idle, at SEQADDR 0x9 Jul 3 10:51:29 mas02 /kernel: ACCUM = 0x0, SINDEX = 0xa, DINDEX = 0xe4, ARG_2 = 0x0 Jul 3 10:51:29 mas02 /kernel: HCNT = 0x0 SCBPTR = 0x18 Jul 3 10:51:29 mas02 /kernel: SCSISEQ = 0x12, SBLKCTL = 0xa Jul 3 10:51:29 mas02 /kernel: DFCNTRL = 0x0, DFSTATUS = 0x89 Jul 3 10:51:29 mas02 /kernel: LASTPHASE = 0x1, SCSISIGI = 0x0, SXFRCTL0 = 0x80 Jul 3 10:51:29 mas02 /kernel: SSTAT0 = 0x0, SSTAT1 = 0x8 Jul 3 10:51:29 mas02 /kernel: SCSIPHASE = 0x0 Jul 3 10:51:29 mas02 /kernel: STACK == 0x3, 0x108, 0x160, 0x0 Jul 3 10:51:29 mas02 /kernel: SCB count = 80 Jul 3 10:51:29 mas02 /kernel: Kernel NEXTQSCB = 23 Jul 3 10:51:29 mas02 /kernel: Card NEXTQSCB = 23 Jul 3 10:51:29 mas02 /kernel: QINFIFO entries: Jul 3 10:51:29 mas02 /kernel: Waiting Queue entries: Jul 3 10:51:29 mas02 /kernel: Disconnected Queue entries: 18:17 Jul 3 10:51:29 mas02 /kernel: QOUTFIFO entries: Jul 3 10:51:29 mas02 /kernel: Sequencer Free SCB List: 24 3 27 28 15 10 9 22 19 17 5 8 11 12 26 14 1 6 4 2 20 16 31 25 21 23 7 30 13 29 0 Jul 3 10:51:29 mas02 /kernel: Sequencer SCB Info: 0(c 0x60, s 0x17, l 0, t 0xff) 1(c 0x60, s 0x17, l 0, t 0xff) 2(c 0x60, s 0x17, l 0, t 0xff) 3(c 0x60, s 0x17 , l 0, t 0xff) 4(c 0x60, s 0x17, l 0, t 0xff) 5(c 0x60, s 0x17, l 0, t 0xff) 6(c 0x60, s 0x17, l 0, t 0xff) 7(c 0x60, s 0x17, l 0, t 0xff) 8(c 0x60, s 0x17, l 0 , t 0xff) 9(c 0x60, s 0x17, l 0, t 0xff) 10(c 0x60, s 0x17, l 0, t 0xff) 11(c 0x60, s 0x17, l 0, t 0xff) 12(c 0x60, s 0x17, l 0, t 0xff) 13(c 0x60, s 0x17, l 0, t 0xff) 14(c 0x60, s 0x17, l 0, t 0xff) 15(c 0x60, s 0x17, l 0, t 0xff) 16(c 0x60, s 0x17, l 0, t 0xff) 17(c 0x60, s 0x17, l 0, t 0xff) 18(c 0x66, s 0x7, l 0, t 0x11) 19(c 0x60, s 0x17, l 0, t 0xff) 20(c 0x60, s 0x17, l 0, t 0xff) 21(c 0x60, s 0x17, l 0, t 0xff) 22(c 0x60, s 0x17, l 0, t 0xff) 23(c 0x60, s 0x17, l 0, t 0xff) 24(c 0x60, s 0x17, l 0, t 0xff) 25(c 0x60, s 0x17, l 0, t 0xff) 26(c 0x60, s 0x17, l 0, t 0xff) 27(c 0x60, s 0x17, l 0, t 0xff) 28(c 0x60, s 0x17, l 0, t 0xff) 29(c 0x60, s 0x17, l 0, t 0xff) 30(c 0x60, s 0x17, l 0, t 0xff) 31(c 0x60, s 0 Jul 3 10:51:29 mas02 /kernel: , t 0xff) Jul 3 10:51:29 mas02 /kernel: Pending list: 17(c 0x62, s 0x7, l 0) Jul 3 10:51:29 mas02 /kernel: Kernel Free SCB list: 10 38 57 62 20 12 7 16 27 11 28 19 40 56 33 43 36 47 48 13 45 21 78 58 64 49 69 18 5 22 55 39 51 65 52 59 6 66 2 37 25 4 41 14 35 29 68 34 61 54 30 60 3 42 15 79 46 53 31 63 0 32 26 24 44 67 9 50 8 1 77 76 75 74 73 72 71 70 Jul 3 10:51:29 mas02 /kernel: sg[0] - Addr 0x188dc000 : Length 4096 Jul 3 10:51:29 mas02 /kernel: sg[1] - Addr 0x2d11d000 : Length 4096 Jul 3 10:51:29 mas02 /kernel: sg[2] - Addr 0x24ede000 : Length 4096 Jul 3 10:51:29 mas02 /kernel: sg[3] - Addr 0x1615f000 : Length 4096 Jul 3 10:51:29 mas02 /kernel: (da0:ahc0:0:0:0): Queuing a BDR SCB Jul 3 10:51:29 mas02 /kernel: (da0:ahc0:0:0:0): no longer in timeout, status = 34a Jul 3 10:51:32 mas02 /kernel: (da0:ahc0:0:0:0): Invalidating pack Jul 3 12:00:02 mas02 /kernel: Connection attempt to TCP 127.0.0.1:25 from 127.0.0.1:1388 Jul 3 13:00:00 mas02 /kernel: Connection attempt to TCP 127.0.0.1:25 from 127.0.0.1:1389 Jul 3 14:00:00 mas02 /kernel: Connection attempt to TCP 127.0.0.1:25 from 127.0.0.1:1390 Jul 3 15:00:00 mas02 /kernel: Connection attempt to TCP 127.0.0.1:25 from 127.0.0.1:1391 Jul 3 16:14:40 mas02 last message repeated 17 times Jul 3 16:16:51 mas02 last message repeated 30 times Jul 3 20:15:00 mas02 /usr/sbin/cron[14546]: login_getclass: retrieving class information: Device not configured ===== ----------------------------------------------------------- Emo is what happens when the glee club goes punk. ----------------------------------------------------------- __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
