Guerra) Organization: Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory Lines: 10 Recently, someone tried to log into the root account from a remote machine with the proper password without success. Now, I can su to root with that password and can log into the console, but attempts with telnet or rlogin meet with no success. I'm sure that there's a simple explanation, but I'm not in a thinking mood right now. Any suggestions? Frank guerra@lll-crg.llnl.gov guerra@cae.llnl.gov (NeXT mail)
