Gurus,
We can't log on to our ES40 either via SSH or via the console. The
system is a mail server and POP, IMAP, and SMTP are working fine, as
are "finger" and web access. But we can't login via SSH or via the
console.
The system is running Tru64 5.1a. I tried to login a couple of hours
ago to log in, and got:
% ssh uclink
jerry@uclink's password:
Last successful login for jerry: Sun Apr 13 21:50:40 PDT 2003 from ...
Last unsuccessful login for jerry: Sat Apr 12 11:15:07 PDT 2003 from ...
I have left the window open and can not do anything in it. There is
no prompt, and control-C, control-\, etc. do not do anything.
I just tried logging in again and got the same identical results. This
means the first login was not completed and/or not logged to utmp or wtmp.
Could it be a utmp/wtmp problem that hangs up logins? There is at least one
utility that is still using the old Tru64 4.0f format for utmp/wtmp entries.
We are scheduling down time tonight to look into it, but would appreciate
any ideas anyone has.
