Question User Access Problem: Via Telnet or even Console

Just took over a UNIX Server from someone who left our company.

Having problems with access by some existing users as well as new users.

I get the following message from telnet sessions, when attempting access at the "Login:" prompt:

"UX:in.login:ERRO: Login incorrect"
"telnetd:Unable to invoke login scheme"

Also, when I log on to the server console with the problem users or any new users I create, I get:

"UX:login:ERROR: Login incorrect".

This is confusing since I can log in those users, that didn't work through standard "Login:", using the "su -" command from a user that does work.

Also new users that I create, either through "sysadm" or "useradd" will exhibit the same problem.

The Server is using:
UNIX System V/386 Release 4.2 Version 1.1.2.
UNIX Systems Laboratories, Inc.

I believe this is Novell's UnixWare.
