Can not login to Solaris 10 [6]

Hello,

I get a trouble when using Xmanager with Solaris Sparc 10.
The Xmanager 2.0 can remote access to the log in console of Solaris 10. But when I login by the root user, there is a warning: "Not on System Console, root login reject"

I have check the /var/dt/Xerrors, there are some warnings (See attached file for detail).
Please help me to solve this problems.

Thanks.

Hi,

I have just solved it , the solution is:

open file /etc/default/login, commment line:
"CONSOLE=/dev/console

Root login is diabled by default for security reasons. I recommend you to keep it this way, but we you must, here is intruction on how:

Open /etc/default/login and comment out the line that starts with CONSOLE like the following.

#CONSOLE=/dev/console

In most cases, you should login as a normal user and then switch to root account. But then again, it's your choice.

thank u sir the solution was the best and it worked for me keep up the good work u r a life saver

Simply open /etc/default/login and comment out the line that starts with CONSOLE like the following.

#CONSOLE=/dev/console

save the login file and go to your xbrowser to login in Solaris 10 System.Now You can login by root user.

what if , there is no other normal user accont active only root , and I cannot login at all due to the error??

Try logging in via SSH or Telnet. If you have no user account other than root account, you will have to access the console.
