Hmmm, I tried to boot into single user mode to find out since I cant log in
from the console normally and I got this error message.
Starting the sync daemon
Starting the error daemon
System initialization completed.
Password:
INIT: Sorry.
Then the cursor just blinks. Fun fun.
So I booted from the AIX 5l install cd went into advanced mode shell and
checked out root's login properties, and root can log in. And tty0 is set
to enable logins.

Check root's user entry. Is login permitted?
