Brilliant ideas ? Yes!!!!!

Read ERRATA.TXT 
Search the mailing list archive 

This problem has been reported at least a hundred times on this mailing list.
Next time try one of the above mentioned solutions before mailing the list.

Now for the real answer :

You need to copy the file  /usr/src/etc/login.conf to /etc.

This is because the version of sysinstall that you are using forgets
to do this :)

Glad to help

I just upgraded one of my machines from 2.1.7.1 to 2.2-STABLE (as of last
9/5/97)....  Other than a few dumb little problems (missing "mail" and
"network" in /etc/group, etc.), it went fairly well.....

But.....

Now I'm getting messages in /var/log/messages I can't explain.  A similar
message appears when "root" logs in, and also when the system boots -- it
complains about "daemon" :

Sep 11 10:31:01 lister login: login from 208.132.36.130 on ttyp0 as mike
Sep 11 10:31:03 lister su: login_getclass: unknown class 'root'
Sep 11 10:31:06 lister su: mike to root on /dev/ttyp0
Sep 11 10:35:00 lister CRON[26769]: login_getclass: unknown class 'root'
Sep 11 10:40:00 lister CRON[26772]: login_getclass: unknown class 'root'

After the machine was done with the first "make world", it wouldn't allow
any connections from inetd -- kept complaining about an undefined symbol
in (I think) libutil...  I did a "cd /usr/src;make lib", and that seemed
to fix the problem, but then I started getting these "unknown class"
messages.  I did another make world, but nothing else changed after that.

Any brilliant ideas?

Thanks -- Mike
