Hello,
With Putty or local console, the using of login "admin" and password no longer work :sad:
With Putty, after entering the password, the window disappears, and with the local console, nothing happens.
No problem with login "root" or login of a other user. Apparently, only the login "admin" is in question.
I've got access to the server-manager in HTTP mode with login "admin".
As I need to reconfigure network settings, can someone help me find access to "admin" (with Putty and local console)?
Thank you very much.

Hi.
Looks like you have changed the admin shell. You can verify this with grep admin /etc/passwdYou should have something like admin:x:101:101:e-smith administrator:/home/e-smith:/sbin/e-smith/consoleNote that the shell is /sbin/e-smith/console. You can however acces the admin menu under the root account, just type the command "console".
Cheers

Hello,
Thank you for your response.
If i write "console" then the console admin appears :P
I have not tried the command "grep".
Thank you very much.

If i write "console" then the console admin appears :P
But that does not diagnose nor correct the problem you have reported.

Yes, that doesn't correct the problem I have reported.
I still have not corrected the problem, I just used the "console" for my urgent actions.
As soon as possible, I will test for correction.
