simran@hostnames password: Permission denied, please try again. simran@hostnames password: Unable to find an authentication method
I tried to deploy an ldap server on this host before leaving and reverted my changes since I was unable to get ldap up and running at the time. I did check my nsswitch.conf file and it shows for passwd, group and shadow files first and then ldap. So this should not be the cause but I might be missing something else. Hopefully I am on the right track.. Could this be the issue?

I also removed the encrypted password for root and my userid from the /etc/shadow file and rebooted. Now when I enter root or my username as the login it does not even ask me for a password and brings me back to the login prompt. Any other ideas as to what might be causing this issue?

Not sure why the root partition would fill up since there was a lot of space when I left and this box only runs a web server and a dns server whose files don't grow that much. Could possibly be the logs but not sure. What would be the best way to free up some space. Do I still need to boot into single user mode using the cdrom or is there another way I can fix this? Any ideas?
Hi Guys,
I just came back from my vacation and can't seem to login to one of my redhat servers. I am getting the following error message when I try to login:
bash-2.05# ssh -l simran hostname
simran@hostname's password:
Read from remote host hostname: Connection reset by peer
Connection to hostname closed.
bash-2.05#
Actually, it sounds to me like one or more of your partitions are full.
Thanks for all your replies, -- Simran H. redhat@xxxxxxxxxxxx www.chamkila.org
