Thanks to Paul Sand for his fast response though his suggestion
didn't apply because i am not running NIS. I ended up working
with HP support to get a solution.
HP points out that /tmp is also a CDSL and should be considered an
important OS filesystem and i couldn't just move it to another
filesystem while system is running.
so i ended moving the tmp to another filesystem,
fixing the links and did a reboot after.
thanks
frederick.

hello t64-managers,
i am running T64 v5.1a and all of a sudden
no one could login using telnet or ssh client
but logging using dxterm is ok.
The symptom is the user can see the
'Last successful login' msg after getting through
the password prompt and can type
anything on the emulator terminal without
any response. (cause the shell hasn't run yet)
The problem looks something to do with the '/bin/login'
or the /bin/sshd could not fork the final shell (ksh or sh).
'ps' command always shows the 'login -h 9.9.9.9 -p'
or the '/bin/sshd -f configfile' process.
This can be confirmed by executing login from a dxterm
or any terminal ever logged in befor the problem.
The only thing suspicious is i moved the /tmp
directory to another file system several days ago by
m -r /tmp; ln -s /tempfs/tmp /tmp ; chmod 1777 /tmp
because of root filesystem full.
Apart from this problem, the system appears to
be running fine. I haven't been able to try
reboot the system yet.
Thanks for any response to my problem.
Frederick.
