Huma, Create another user and try to login with that. If that is successful, then the problem is with your username. bye shiraz ------ original message --------- I'm new to working on linux and have just got a Redhat Enterprise Linux 3 WS. Tha installation process went fine and I created both a root account and a user account. Today as I tried to login as user and typed in username and password, the system just seems to hang and then go back to the username screen again. I can't understand what the problem is... can anyone please help?? __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Win a $20,000 Career Makeover at Yahoo!
