Topic: Can not Telnet or login to Esmith Gateway

[Prabhjot Gill]

Hi All,

Last night I tried to login locally from prompt command prompt but it did not allowed me to login as admin. It would just kick me out within 1 - 2 seconds. I changed security settings to private or public for telnet session but same thing. I would connect through telnet but at the same time telnet session will be re-set. I was trying to fix my DHCP problem but now I have this new problem. I will appreciate your advice otherwise I will re-install the whole thing over the weekend.

I believe you can only log into the console as root, using the same admin password.

Login: root
Password: ******

Welcome
E-Smith/ >

I believe the admin is only for logging in through the http server.

Thanks for your suggestion. Yes, it worked with root id.
