Re sysklogd package broke my root login today. syslogd and klogd were not running on my powerpc because I prefer the rc.inet1, rc.inet2 scripts and had not corrected the pathnames from /usr/sbin to /sbin.
As soon as I did turn them on root was unable to login, though other users could. Nor was I able to su to root. It would print `you have no mail' and hang prior to running /bin/sash. So I booted -b sushell=/bin/sash, moved syslogd out of the path, and restarted system fine. Logged in as root fine. Started syslogd and tried to login on another console as root. Got to no mail and it hung. Killed syslogd and got the shell prompt on that new console. sysklogd_1.3-29.deb powerpc Everything on that machine tracks unstable. I don't know if this is a bug or something local. Has anyone else run into it? cfm -- Christopher F.
