login incorrect and XDMCP not working

[WilliamSmith11]

Hi
I just have installed the last version of HPUX OS on itanium system rx2620.

The problem is that when I do telnet , the machine responde with the login prompt, I set the login and after request for password, when I set the password send me a message that the login is incorrect.

The other problem is that I have I can not connect me throught reflexion X because say that there is not any host running XDMC , the local graphic console is working fine and the serial console too.

Some Idea ?

I will appreciate your help.

Thank you .

1) Login problem
- First guess is that your password or login name keyed in is incorrect.
- When keying in, there shouldn't be any spaces

Quickest way to reolsve this is to verify the login name is accurate and get someone else with admin priviledges to reset the password.

2)You could try to start and stop the daemon

/sbin/init.d/dtlogin.rc stop

/sbin/init.d/dtlogin.rc start

Else, you may find the solution in this thread

user name and password are ok , since I use the same one fronm the serial console port .

I will need to change some setting in the init.d and enable telnet?

Thank you

William,

Are you trying to log in as root? There could be /etc/securetty which will have the word console in it. If so, you can only log on as root from the console. Log in as another user and su to root.

Hi William,

Verify file,
