Hi, today, I used cvsup to update a server from FreeBSD 5.0 Release to FreeBSD 5.1 Release. I didn't forget to run mergemaster.
Now I find, I can no longer get a login shell for a NIS-supported account if I try to log into the server via ssh: | [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ ssh server | [EMAIL PROTECTED]'s password: | Connection to server closed by remote host. | Connection to server closed. However, the authentication seems to work, as I see it in /var/log/auth.log on the server. Also, I can invoke commands via ssh (just not get a login shell): | [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ ssh server ls | [EMAIL PROTECTED]'s password: | [home directory listing is shown] On the other hand, a ssh login for a user with an account locally on the server works, as does a (temporarily tested) telnet login of the NIS user. Console logins work, too, for both local and NIS users. Summary in a table: command user known by NIS user known locally (w.r.t. server) ssh doesn't work works ssh ls works works telnet works works console login works works Can anyone help? Please reply not only to the list but also by private mail because I'm not subscribed to the list. Thank you!
