When inetd accepts a connection from a remote system, it checks the
address of the host requesting the service against the list of hosts
to be allowed or denied access to the specific service (see
inetd(1M)).
which lead me to /etc/inetd.conf and this line which I had looked at previously. I had assumed it is correct but am including for another set of eyes to look at.
I am getting closer. The problem is that the root password contains the "@" character. When I use a password without "@" I can get in. I think it has something to do with eol being set to ^@.
For the heck of it I tried adding this to /etc/profile
Code:
EOL="^-"
export EOL
stty eol $EOL
but it didn't help. I suppose because /etc/profile is read after the login.
In the end I just ended up changing the password to something simpler because a screw up of the tty settings for the root account could mean a reinstall and it's not worth it.
