- Load AmiTCP:db/passwd into a text editor and find the line which corresponds
- to your login. In my case:
-
- Scampi|NB/.74rol6CEo|200|100|Mathew Hendry|AmiTCP:|shell
- ^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
- And remove the segment I have marked here with "^". (The vertical bars "|" are
- used as separators; do not remove these). To get, e.g.
-
- Scampi||200|100|Mathew Hendry|AmiTCP:|shell
-
- Which means "User Scampi needs no password".
-
- This should fix it.
-
- BTW, if you want to disable a particular user's account, place a "*" in the
- password field e.g.
-
- Scampi|*|200|100|Mathew Hendry|AmiTCP:|shell
-
- You'll notice that most of the accounts in your AmiTCP:db/passwd are
- configured like that.
