Depending on the SSH server settings, your servers may not allow root user from remote login. Please check your SSH server settings.

If your problem still persists, please send us the following information:

1. everything in the Xrcmd: Reply Messages dialog box.
   To do this, select the Show reply messages option on the main Xstart window, and keep the dialog box open until the X application exits abruptly.
   
   
2. Plese describe your problem in more detail.

Thanks for your mail.
i can login remotly to server with root user via ssh .

i send you Xrcmd output:

please let me know how can i fix it

Your problem occurs when the root user is not allowed to login. Tectia, as far as I know, disables root login by defaut. Check out the following page:

http://www.ssh.net/support/documentation/online/ssh/adminguide/40/Configuring_Root_Logins.html

Hi
i do not think so about root login , becuase i can not use xbrowser with another user , while i can ssh with root or all of user in aix box from command prompt on windows xp

please let me know more

Xbrowser and SSH uses two different protocol and cannot be compared.

This problem occurs when the server preventing root user from logging in. You should contact your system administrator to reconfigure the SSH server and restart it when done.

However, logging into a root user account is not recommended for its security vulnerability issues. We recommend you to login as a normal user, and then switch to a root user.

Thank you for using Xmanager.

I do not think so , because i can login with root user via comand prompt on windows xp cmd line

please let me know more

I don't think you logged in to the server using the SSH protocol because Windows cmd line doesn't support SSH protocol. It is hard to imagine what your problem is from your postings. At first, you said you cannot login to the root account, and now you can? And what's it got to do with Xbrowser?

I really recommend you to describe your problem in more detail.

Do these:

1. Describe what you've done in the cmd window. (Copy everything in the cmd window and include it in your next posting)
2. Attach screenshots of your problem. (include Xrcmd: reply message and the Xstart window)

Hi

I think you should select a "TELNET" protocol in the Xshell Session Properties dialog box.
