Lanham" To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: root login Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Evidently I messed something up on install because I am now unable to login as root. I get : login: /bin/csh: Permission denied I am certain I am typing the password correct and I am wondering why the system is trying to throw me into csh. Wouldn't it just give me login incorrect if my password were bad. anyway since I can't login as root I can't do a whole lot to correct this. If there is no easy way to correct this the nI can just reinstall but I would like to be able to fix it w/o the reinstall. I am still able to login as the userr that I set up during the install. I glad at least I did that. Brett To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
