Login disallowed (audit error)

[Rui_3]

I'm getting this message: Login disallowed (audit error), on some users when I'm using rexec an or ftp, as anyone had this similar problem?
The strange thing is that it does not occur on all the services and for all users, for example rlogin is working well, and other users are able to use these services without any problem.

I'm working on a trusted system, but with auditing turn off.

Tkx in Advance for all the help.

Check the inetd security file of the host, make sure the rexec service wasn't set to disallow there.

I see the same error - but there is no inetd.sec file so I assume that by default this would not be switched on ?

Solution to my problem:
authck -p highlighted inconsistencies between the passwd file and the trusted database, once these were corrected (using vipw in this case) the problem vanished.
