su : no shell + memory fault

[nishith]

i had power outage.my hp-ux servers booted back. all filesystems afe fine. but now i'm able to login only as root user. for all other user i get the mesage

su : no shell
memory fault.

please help. i made permissions of the /usr & /home to 755. still problem exits

[Muthukumar_5]

check the shell binary permission. It has to be 555.

example:
# ls -l /usr/bin/sh
-r-xr-xr-x 2 bin bin 204800 Oct 21 2003 /usr/bin/sh

check the the directory permissions of /usr/bin too. Which user you are trying to login. Check that users shell type from /etc/passwd file as root user and check the directory and binary file permission to have world searchable (x) permission on last bit.

Hi,

Did you run filesystem consistency check after the crash ? You can do it with, # fsck -F vxfs -o full -y /dev/vg00/
