I checked the hosts.allow and host.deny. Hosts.allow # See tcpd(8) and hosts_access(5) for a description. #ALL EXCEPT in.fingerd, in.identd : ALL : spawn (safe_finger -l @%h 2>&1 | \ # /bin/mail -s "%d-%h %u" root) &
I tried uncommenting - still "login incorrect" Also added the IP from which I was telneting - still "login incorrect" Hosts.deny # See tcpd(8) and hosts_access(5) for a description. http - rman : ALL EXCEPT LOCAL Tired commenting this - still "login incorrect" I also followed another suggestion to check /etc/shells to see if passwd shell was there. It was there. The other suggestion I got was to see if PAM was running - not sure what it is. Any other suggestions? After the install I had to setup inetd to start on startup b/c it was not by default. Think I did a workstation install.

Perhaps you should check the /etc/hosts.allow and /etc/hosts.deny files ? /Martin -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
