Message-ID: <20020519205152.GA17093@dhcp01.pn.xcllnt.net> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline User-Agent: Mutt/1.3.99i Sender: owner-freebsd-current@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk List-ID: List-Archive: (Web Archive) List-Help: (List Instructions) List-Subscribe: List-Unsubscribe: X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Gang, I sometimes cannot get passed SRA secure login, even though credentials are given correctly: Connected to athlon.pn.xcllnt.net. Escape character is '^]'. Trying SRA secure login: User (marcel): Password: [ SRA login failed ] : (repeat last 3 lines -- Ad nauseam) The problem is not a faulty password or username, but appears to be something that behaves much the same as uninitialized variables. Most of the time SRA secure login works ok, but it does occasionally reject the login. It is not possible to login at all when SRA rejects a login. It's a permanent state and the only way around it is to ^C and re-telnet, which BTW occasionally fails as well... I haven't seen anything on this topic, so I'd like to hear if others are experiencing this as well and if this is a security "feature", a bug or misconfiguration.
