Yesterday I discovered a strange problem with my SuSE 8.1 box at work. I logged out of KDE, and then tried to log in as root. It tells me that the login is incorrect. However, as a user, I can su to root using the same password. I can even change the password, but I still can't log in as root.
BTW, I am not trying to login through a telnet session. I am trying to log in at the machine.
TIA,
Mike
What KDE are you using? Did you build from konstruct? That happened to me when I used the construct KDM. I just scratched my head and decided it wasn't worth trying to figure out. Can you Ctl+Alt+F1 and login as root? STH
