[rhn-users] RHEL3 box hanging at login

[Lamon, Frank III]

Check out the size of your /var directory - it's probably over 80%. Depending on your update level the default setting for auditd is to suspend auditable actions (logons, etc) once the filesystem reaches a certain threshold (80%  is default I think).
