[Wylug-discuss] Linux connection problem

Hi,

We have a interesting Linux problem.

We have a Linux box which has been running for years with no problems ( as
Linux does!)

However, today, users cannot rlogin to it. However, as root you can, and
when logged in, su - to a typical user works.

I have tried rebooting (first time in over a year) to no effect. The machine
is running yp, but all the config files etc worked OK on Friday an have not
been changed since
.
The problem would appear to be with creating a telnet session for any user
other than root.

Any suggestions anyone?

David
