Re: login problem!



This is happening because login won't allow non-root logins while the system is booting up.  It thinks the system is booting up because of the existance of the file /etc/nologin.  This file is removed automatically when entering multi-user mode.  Two things to check:

1. What is your default run level?  This is in your /etc/inittab file.  It should be 2.
2. Check /etc/rc2.d directory for the existance of S99rmnologin, it should be a symlink to /etc/init.d/rmnologin.  If this is not the case, you will need to reinstall the sysvinit package.

Hi all,
When I try login in my debian 2.4 as normal user, system say:

login: jramon
Sytem bootup in progress - please wait

Password: *******
Login incorrect

I put the correct password, but it doesn't woork. However, I can login as
root successfully.

Where is the mistake?

Thanks
