I have a 7.2 box where root cannot log in. Normal users used to authenticate correctly, but I had been messing around with PAM trying to fix root's problem, and now they can't either.
I can boot single user mode and change passwords, but if I su to a normal user and try to su back to root, it will not accept the password. I would think root logging into the console would only depend on the existence of /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow (which are 0644 and 600, respectively). What else does it consult? I've reinstalled the PAM RPMs, but it didn't help. I've tried stracing /bin/login, but that was, um, counterproductive (but lots of fun). Any ideas? -- Drew _______________________________________________ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
