Sounds like /etc/nologin; contents of which are displayed immediately
before the login session terminates. Configured within apcupsd.conf
with a configuration setting of NOLOGINDIR pointing to /etc by default;
I don't believe it can be disabled, however.
Thanks John, I'll look for this file.
So I guess the, log everyone out and stop further logins instruction
is still lurking around somewhere.
How do I regain control of my server??
Remove /etc/nologin.
Does this mean I need to boot with a rescue disk and edit some file
somewhere??
"ssh root@host rm -f /etc/nologin" will remove it.
How do I prevent this re-occurring, after a perfect shutdown and
restart, only to get stymied here.
not an option, already set no root login via ssh.
however I have console access, so a <Ctrl><Alt>F7 got me another tty and
root login from there worked.
now to debug the apcupsd....
Thanks for the help - appreciated
apcupsd should be handling this automatically when mains power is
restored. Perhaps check the package documentation / project bugtracker.
