Did you try adduser test psswd 1234 then try to login as user test or su
to another user and see if you could su to another non root user too see
if you're prompted for their password or how about looking at
/etc/passwd and group to see if your uid & gid's look right. justin

Hi,
I had to back my laptop off from Woody back to the stable version.
Everything seems to work, except only root is allowed in. In fact, even
though there is a root passwd, it doesn't ask for it when I enter root
for
user name and hit enter. Any attempt to login in as a normal user, goes
no
where. I also note that when attempting to login as someone else, it
always
says please wait while system is starting, before returning the login
prompt.
Looked at the inittab file, but didn't see any problem there, where else
should I look?
