Hi,

I have a Woody v3.0 with a 2.4.18 kernel.

I can only login as root, if I try to login as anyone else it does not
even ask for a password, it juts says 'Login incorrect'.

Regardless of which username I enter it always says 'System bootup in
progress - please wait'

My Samba does not work, nor can I use Swat.

There is something wrong with autentication.

What can I do to trouble shoot this issue ?

Many thanks

Matt
