Hi, Thanks for your quickly reply, but I still confused about your mentioned. I took a look at /etc/ directory, but i couldn't find any problem on that. ls -l: -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 842 May 25 2004 profile so is it not correct? I could understannd what you told me that maybe I messed up permissions on this system. And I need to provide what kind more information that could help to trace the problem, Anyway, any tips will be welcome, Zhou Zhen On 6/26/06, replies-lists-redhat@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx <replies-lists-redhat@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote:
based on the little info that you've provided, it sounds like you may have messed up permissions on your /etc/ directory. in general, the /etc/ directory (and it's contents) is owned.grouped by root.root with "group" and "other" having read and execute (as appropriate) access to most files. e.g., group/other should have read access to /etc/profile . ------------ Original Message ------------ > Date: Monday, June 26, 2006 11:19:40 AM +0800 > From: Zhen Zhou <zhouzhenzj@xxxxxxxxx> > To: fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx > Subject: strange and serious problem about user login > > Hi, all, > I am using Fedora 3, today I found serious problem, I couldn't start > any service other than root. > and I try to login as normal user except root, the teminal show me: > --bash: /etc/profile: Permission denied > --bash: 3.00$ > > and when I start sshd in this pc, I get no errors, but when I check > the status of sshd, > it showed me: sshd dead but subsys locked > > When I login as root in terminal without any problem, but I keyin: > su normal-user > I got error: could not open session > > I guess, maybe the user manage got problem, but I dodn't know how to > solve the problem. > > > Thanks a lot for any tips, > > > > Zhou Zhen > > -- > fedora-list mailing list > fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx > To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list ---------- End Original Message ----------
