[rhn-users] login hanging

[Kueffer, Walter K (PIP - San Diego)]

Once you get in, check to see if auditd is running.  

I had a similar problem on a system of mine because the auditd was
filling up /var.  Once /var was filled, samba, nfs, etc. continued
functioning but you could not login to the system (even at the console).

I've had this problem before.  Portmap had crashed.  If I could get into
it, 
restarting portmap solved the problem, otherwise a reboot solved it.

Hi everyone,

I'm having a pretty strange problem that will likely turn into a general

panic
if I can't resolve it soon.

Over the weekend one of my servers became unlog-into-able.
When I enter my password the system just hangs and doesn't respond.

I have tried this over SSH as well as at the console, with 3 different 
logins.

This particularly server is an NIS, samba and NFS server, and all three 
services
are working properly. That is, I can log into my NIS clients just fine,
and access the NFS shares.

I have run out of ideas before I even had any on how to fix this.

Any suggestions?

Thanks a lot,
Clint.
