I did not delete toor and then recreate it. I just modified what was 
there in the base system with this script.

#! /bin/sh
pw moduser toor  -d /root -s /bin/csh -h 0 << EOD
j722
EOD

Using putty from remote location I connect to the host ok, but toor 
login fails with denied message. For user name I use toor ie; no 
@domain. Remote putty ssh does work using other account names only.

When pc is on the LAN can access ftp using toor. Never tested ssh toor 
from LAN.

Any suggestions
