For some reason, today I tried to login to my mail server (and secondary DNS server) and got immediately returned to the login prompt without being prompted for a password. I have scoured the web for a good solution and found none. The mail server works fine, I can check my mail using POP3 and I can ftp into the machine with no problem. I tried rlogging into it from another machine and I get a password prompt, but it immediately rejects and disconnects. I booted into single user mode and checked a few things out but I can't see a problem. inetd.conf looks fine and the login executable exists. I re-installed PAM but it had no effect. Can someone help me out here? I really need to get into that machine! Thanks in advance to anyone who responds. Stephen L. McMahon smcmahon@datanetdg.com
