I can't get "login" to work properly. It won't recognize my passwd. Everything else seems to be working properly (indeed, when I switch over to the telnetd/inetd supplied by Exceed - a commercial telnetd - I can login normally; so it appears something specific to how I installed the coolview/remote package). Here's all I see: 10:53:49./users/default> cat /etc/passwd Administrator::1003:513:::/bin/sh ghart::500:513:::/bin/sh Guest::501:513:::/bin/sh IUSR_GHART::1000:513:Internet Guest Account::/bin/sh IWAM_GHART::1001:513:Web Application Manager account::/bin/sh spsy::1002:513:Spectrum 5.X user://c/home/s:/bin/sh 10:56:59./users/default> echo "admin"|login Administrator Password: Login incorrect login: 10:57:22./users/default> login login: Administrator Password: Login incorrect login: thanks for any hints at what I did wrong (I read through all the posts about this, and I tried to follow Sergei's instructions for "User Rights", but I'm still stuck).
