Hi! I have a strange problem with the "login' command on SuSE 8.2 1. I can log on the console and with ssh with a user errrr let's say 'hector' :-) 2. When log on as root, and I use the 'login' command (either on the console or ssh), I'm not asked for the password and get logged out. I didn't find any error message I searched the whole day in the man pages, in the SuSE db, on internet, but I didn't find anything about login rights or login problems :-( Does anyone have a clue? It's _very_ annoying since I need to have the login command to work to setup a ppp dialin server :-/ -- Christophe Greisberger
I found something else: If I log in as a non-root user and I type 'login', I have following message: FATAL: cannot change permissions of TTY: Operation not permitted -- Christophe Greisberger

Thanks, but the problem seems different, and anyway there was no solution in these threads. I found a temporary solution by replacing 'login @' with 'ssh -l @ localhost' in /etc/mgetty+sendfax/login.config A nasty solution, but it works. -- Christophe Greisberger Zenon-Media GmbH Phone: +49 (7852) 9133 / 34 Fax : +49 (7852) 9133 / 35
