Login incorrect via getty



Hi all,
I have problems during login over tty and getty, a login via ssh and telnet works.

What could this be? How do getty authenticate different from a telnet/ssh login?

The problem occurs with all accounts, root and new created ones. It asks for login and password and then returns "Login incorrect"

During installation of the Emdebian Grip Squeeze on the ARM9 board it works at the beginning. But at the moment the package "adduser" is installed, it rejects getty login.

BTW: A dangerous behavior I observed with telnet:
When opening the connection via telnet, I'm immediately logged in as root - without asking for a password! I set a password with passwd which also is requested by SSH and getty (before the adduser installation) but not by telnet?!?!?

The messages file don't got any entry.

Any idea?
