something simple, but i have no idea: a login issue
Hi all,
I have a problem not really dramatic but realyl annoying:
i've got a groups of users who logon a sunos 2.3 box via a windows telnet client (KEAI, but this is not the problem).
they login as perso1 and password.
It takes a very very very long time to get in.
If i log on the same box as root, then do a su - perso1, i get the same results.
if as root, i do a simple su perso1, then source the .profile, it is almost immediat.
since yesterday evening and this morning, the .profile has not changed.
FYI, the login shell for both root and perso1 is ksh..
Any ideas?
Jason

login.access
LOGIN.ACCESS(5) BSD File Formats Manual LOGIN.ACCESS(5)
NAME
login.access -- login access control table
DESCRIPTION
The login.access file specifies on which ttys or from which hosts certain users are allowed to login.
At login, the /etc/login.access file is checked for the first entry that matches a specific user/host or user/tty combination. That entry can
either allow or deny login access to that user.
Each entry have three fields separated by colon:
o The first field indicates the permission given if the entry matches. It can be either ``+'' (allow access) or ``-'' (deny access) .
o The second field is a comma separated list of users or groups for which the current entry applies. NIS netgroups can used (if configured)
if preceeded by @. The magic string ALL matches all users. A group will match if the user is a member of that group, or it is the user's
primary group.
o The third field is a list of ttys, or network names. A network name can be either a hostname, a domain (indicated by a starting period),
or a netgroup. As with the user list, ALL matches anything. LOCAL matches a string not containing a period.
If the string EXCEPT is found in either the user or from list, the rest of the list are exceptions to the list before EXCEPT.
BUGS
If there's a user and a group with the same name, there is no way to make the group match if the user also matches.
