Hmmm...  Someone else will have to play ball then.  When I had this same
problem, I added the line "rm -f /etc/nologin" to my /etc/rc.local file, and
all users' logins were again enabled.  Good luck!

No that file does not exist. One other question related to this is that when
I attempt to login after rebooting the system , I cannot login using any
other name than root. Excuse my lack of knowledge , but what must I do for a
user to be able to login other than creating them in the User&Groups control
panel ?

Do you have a /etc/nologin file?

Subject: Telnet question


Hi ,

I have installed Red Hat 5.0 and it runs great , very impressed with it
so far. But , I have one problem. I cannot telnet into the system , either
on console or remote. I simply get "Login incorrect" when I attempt it. I
have used other account than root to attept it , but no sucess.

I have added all hosts needed in the /etc/hosts file as well as the
/etc/hosts.allow file with the entry ALL : ALL.

Is there another file I need to edit , something in inetd.conf or something
simple that I have left out.

Here is a paste of the session as I see it.


Red Hat Linux release 5.0 (Hurricane)
Kernel 2.0.32 on an i486
login:(Known good name)
Password:(confirmed password)

Login incorrect

login:

Any help would be great.
