... 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 ...


/var/log/message is your friend.
