telnet session asking system password

Hi all,

One of my unix server HP-UX B.11.11 asking system password, while telnet to that.

example
telnet
login:
Password:
System Password:

If I ssh to this server, it never asks this system password.

Earlier, when similar issue happened, I had turned off the ldapclient and reset the password of user. Now, for the same user it is asking. No other users have problem. He says, whenever he changes the NT password, UNIX gives this problem.

What could be the problem? This is our application test server and the environment, we never use ldap or pam.

Thanks in advance.
Regards
Shibin

Re: telnet session asking system password

Hi,

1. Are you running a trusted system?
2. check krb5.conf for errors
3. tail -f /usr/adm/syslog/syslog.log /After loggin with a regular user

Do you use ntp for your system timing? if so...
7. ntpdate time.nist.gov
8. login as the user ...

Regards,

Marco,
Just unplug and plug in again ....
