FC2, 2.6.10-1.771 NIS client with nsswitch.conf passwd entry 'compat nis' /etc/passwd user entries of form '+username' Problem: Recently a user of our FC2 system found he wasn't able to ssh login anymore. No other users (total <20) are experiencing this problem. The ssh login fails with 'Connection to xxxxxxx closed by remote host.' When root user su's to this account, say with 'su - username', error is 'su: cannot set user id: Resource temporarily unavailable' /var/log/messages records consecutive 'session opened' and 'session closed' for the user, with same time stamp. /var/log/secure records that sshd accepted the password for that user. 'ypwhich' reports correct NIS master. To my knowledge there have been no system config changes across the working/notworking time interval. Again, this user used to be able to login. All others except this user can still login. Any suggestions? -Neil -- Neil R. Smith, Comp. Sys. Mngr. neils@xxxxxxxx Dept.
