X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.1 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Thu, 17 Apr 2003 22:46:27 -0000 Hello; I have finally gotten irritated with an occurance that is really not a problem. Every time I SSH to a FreeBSD machine from a unix prompt, I get prompted for a password twice. The first time, that password NEVER works. Sometimes it is automatically entered as nothing, and a Response line is printed. For example : Password: Response: joe@192.168.1.1's password: Now, I can successfully log in, but it's starting to get annoying, and I was wondering if there was a setting I could alter that would remove that extra password/response combination. Hopefully someone out there in the real world has some advice for me. Joe
