2 > Esc shift q (vi)

3 > power off - hold D -power on - beep - release D

4 > Ctrl C (hold it down)

5 > Tab (sam/swinstall)

6 > Ctrl E cf (lan/gsp console)

look for console
ps -ef | grep shell at console
kill hung ps ( or shell )

As I mentioned I normaly goes Remote on the server, but the specific server am mentioned in this case,I normaly goes the consol way, because I can??t run a telnet or ftp to the server. The NFS services working perfect, Samba working perfect, Print services working perfect.
Everything seems to work OK, but the consol and telnet servies is not working. :-(
My problem is that I can??t reboot the server, because I have problems every times I reboot the server, the boot sequence can??t mount the drives devices automaticaly.

Check that the telnet services are enabled in /etc/inetd.conf. If not, set it up and restart inetd (inetd -c). This should start up telnet.

What kind of errors are you getting when trying to mount the devices? Check /etc/rc.log for errors.
