I've had a strange problem the last couple of days: I can't login to
my system (IIfx w/ A/UX 2.0.1) via the modem. I'll get the banner and
the login: prompt. I type the userid and hit return. Instead of a
password: prompt, the system drops the carrier. I haven't changed
anything, and I can still login on the console. Any ideas? I've tried
a few different userids that I've setup on the system.

I finally made a DIN-8-to-DIN-8 cable so I could use my Mac Plus as a terminal to test this problem. Even direct connect, the problem still exists. I've messed with /etc/inittab and used stty to change the settings all around. I've now seen that after I enter the userid, the process dies/gets killed/enters a black hole and a new getty process is spawned. I completely out of ideas. Three people have sent hints (and they know who they are, thanks!), but no solutions as of yet. -- Eric Dittman Texas Instruments - Component Test Facility dittman@skitzo.csc.ti.com dittman@skbat.csc.ti.com Disclaimer: I don't speak for Texas Instruments or the Component Test Facility.
