- I'm having some problems with telnetd and rlogind on my A/UX 3.0 box
- (IIfx with 20 MB RAM and 160+80+80 MB hard drives).
-
- Most of the time, we don't have any problems. But every so often, we
- can't log in on ttyp0 (the default tty). Telnet sometimes times out,
- sometimes gives me half a prompt, and sometimes lets me log in before
- dying. Rlogin just times out. When this is happening, I can still ping
- my machine just fine, and all background processes also seem to work.
-
- The workaround that we've discovered (by accident) is to log into
- ttyp0. While that is hung, we start up a second process into ttyp1,
- which works fine. By the time the ttyp0 process times out and dies,
- the second connection is working just fine.
-
- Has anyone had similar problems with their machines?
