Hi, I am having a few problems with my v.small network. I have 2 boxes both pc's, one running FreeBSD nearly current (Updated begin Jan) and the other running 3.0 release. Firstly I was able to telnet to 127.0.0.1 and log in as root, however now even this seems to be causing problems the same as if I try to telnet to the other box and log in as root. This is the message that I get scratch2 login: LOGIN root REFUSED (NOROOT) from scratch1.netlink on TTY ttyp0 The other problem is that I am having problems with networked accounts, unable to log on as anything from one machine except that which was created on it Don't know if this is anything to do with it but I get this message scratch1 login: LOGIN FAILURE from scratch1.netlink repeat repeat scratch login: NIS netgroup support not configured reading about netgroup and creating /etc/netgroup with only + in it and re-make the yp Makefile does not produce netgrp.byname etc Do I need netgroup and if so what am I doing wrong, Is this a problem with having ELF on one box and aout on the other !!!!! any help much appreciated Thanks -- Tim Preece To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
