... ciao: all of a sudden, i am only able to login as root. this is not something i was trying to accomplish, and at a loss in figuring out how i did. anyway. as a given, login as a valid user, with correct password, terminated immediately, with a new login prompt. invalid login attempts iterate until a new session initiated. ftp, and smtp allowed, telnet fails. i'm not seeing anything mentioned in the logs with regard to failed normal user login. i'm at a loss as to where i might start looking. any thoughts, suggestion would be much appreciated ...
