CDE console hung for root

Ratzie — Tue, 24 Oct 2006 14:43:15 GMT

I locked the server down, apparently too tight and now at the console the CDE session is hung.
This is for anyone logging into the console.

Wont move off the copywrite page.
There is nothing in the .dt/errorlog

And the session log does not complain.

Shalom,

1) Make sure xfs is runing /sbin/init.d/xfs start edit /etc/rc.config.d/xfs to mae it permanent

2) Check permissions on the files listed above.

3) Check permissions and existance of /rootuser/.profile

Have you checked the /etc/securetty file??
I should have "console" in it (without the quotes). That should let root log into the console and CDE

xfs did start on boot
We changed no permissions on users directory

root@snap # ps -ef |grep xfs
root 2260 1 0 15:37:56 ? 0:00 /usr/bin/X11/xfs -config /etc/X11/fs/config -port 7000 -daemon

# pwd
/etc
# cat securetty
console
# ll securetty
-rw------- 1 root sys 8 Oct 6 15:01 securetty
