Solomon,Can you ping from from that machine?If not check the network card configuration i.e. by # sbin/ifconfig -a-Michal

As stated by the first rsponce, the networking interface being up is a baseline

requirement. I would then want to ask if the machine known by the other systems

within you network.

Has a naming service been established? NIS , DNS, or even /etc/hosts file entries?

IF the system is on the net, there is one other thing might be, the /etc/default/login file.

There are lines that looks like this in the file:

# If CONSOLE is set, root can only login on that device.

# Comment this line out to allow remote login by root.

CONSOLE=/dev/console

Comment out the CONSOLE line by adding a " #" sign in front of it, and try it again....

#CONSOLE=/dev/console

Hope this is helpful,
