After an upgrade from 2.2.8 to 4.1 by ftp today I couldn't log on. Got login incorrect for root and my own account. I fixed it by booting with -s and fixing root's password, but does anyone know why this happened? Is it standard or did I just get lucky? I couldn't find any reports of similar things resulting from upgrades in the archive. mvh/regards James To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
