Hi, No I am not able to login as root from other consoles also. I am able to ssh on this machine from other machines and is able to successfully login to this machine but from my console I am now even not able to login to this machine. It is not accepting my uname and passwd. Looks like I ma stuck at a big trouble. -- Regards Mayank Jain(Nawal) Niksun 9818390836 www.mayankjain.110mb.com On Monday 22 October 2007 19:28, Eric Crist wrote: > If you executed the command you claim you did, you're system > permissions are really screwed up.
