Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-current@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Since my 3.0 machine is several thousand kilometers away, we have the serial console enabled, and plugged inot a port on a Portmaster 2e terminal server...all of a sudden, it won't allow me to login anymore, even thogh I can 'see' the boot sequence and any error messages on teh screen: FreeBSD (hub.org) (ttyd0) login: root Password:Login timed out after 300 seconds FreeBSD (hub.org) (ttyd0) login: The password I type is correct, as I can 'su' in a shell using the same one...it just doesn't let me login through the console... I haven't changed ayting, that I'm aware of, but it definitely used to work...:( Any ideas as to where I should look? connections through ssh work right, and all services (httpd, smtp, etc) all appear to be working correctly...
