Cannot login or su
Hi!
I have installed woody in 3 boxes. Suddently I can't login to one of
them.
I am not sure if this problem has to do with the upgrade of wine package
(version 20040615).
Now I have only 2 ways to access this problematic box:
(1) using boot floppy disks
(2) starting X by sudo in startup script and using xterm from within
window managers
However, I can't su from non-root accounts in xterm, either. su yields
error message:
su: Module not found
Sorry.
sudo seems to be working fine.
When I try "telnet localhost" from xterm in the same box, the system
prompts me "login:", but after any account followed by enter key (line
feed) are entered, the system does not prompt me password. It instead
directly responds with login failure.
If I telnet from other boxes and give the problematic box the login
account, the problematic box does not prompt password, either. Then it
says:
System bootup in progres - please wait
Files passwd and shadow look good.
How to fix this? Please!
TIA
