Howdy all,
I must appologize, I asked this before (and was rightly scolded for not
including enough info) and then exam-time came around so I never continued
the thread. So, I will ask again :).
I cannot log ANY users into my RH6 system via telnet. I can log these
users in via the console, but I cannot telnet to my own system (localhost)
and log them in. I am also able to log users in via ftp. This affects even
newly created users.
When I attempt to log in, everything operates as normal...initially. I
get a login prompt, and then a password prompt, and then it says "login
incorrect". The only log entries this generates is something like : "inetd
: FAILED LOGIN from user dave" It will also indidcate how many times I try.
Obviously, I have done something to cause this but I cannot fathom what
that might be. The only thing I did was install the iptraf utility, but I
did that several days before I stopped being able to log in.
Thanks for your help,
Dave
