Solaris 9 login problem

Hi I have a ULTRA ENTERPRISE 2 machine. The system won't allow me to log in. When I use the root /root-password to login at CDE graphics screen , it says invalid user shell. I have not set up any other account here so I don't know whether this problem is only for root user.Whats the next step ??/
