Config error of some kind

2002-02-13 Thread McGillan, Patrick
Hi, I had to back my laptop off from Woody back to the stable version. Everything seems to work, except only root is allowed in. In fact, even though there is a root passwd, it doesn't ask for it when I enter root for user name and hit enter. Any attempt to login in as a normal user, goes no where.
