- Hi,
-
- I am having problem with the two dec machines that we have.
-
- DEC 5000/240:
-
- * The machine boots, and comes up with the login window, but I cannot
- type anything. In other words, I cannot login from the console.
- * The mouse works.
- * There doesn`t seem any problem with the keyboard hardware as
- I can type when I am at the console prompt.
- * On running the test from the console, the machine complains of
- having a faulty fpu.
- * Also, at the left corner of the screen there is a window titled
- "Prompter Message"
- * I can remotely log into the machine.
-
- The last line in the ttys file reads:
- :0 "/usr/bin/login -P /usr/bin/Xprompter -C /usr/bin/dxsession -e" none on secure window = "/usr/bin/Xwst3d bc -class Pseudocolor"
-
-
- DEC 5000/120:
-
- * Cannot login from the login window or remotely.
- * The machine boots, also I can type the login name, but it complians
- when trying to log in.
- * When trying to login as a user on the console the message that comes
- up is:
- Error in quota call
- * When trying to login as root on the console the message that comes
- up is:
- Unable to set gid to 1
- * When trying to login as a user remotely the message that comes
- up is:
- audcntl: Permission denied
- audgen: Permission denied
-
- Please let me know if you have any suggestions.
-
- Thanks
