Recently updated to 1.3.18-1 and telnet/rlogin/etc have stopped working.
inetd is running as a service just like before. The problem now is that
I cannot authenticate! No password works:
$ telnet $(hostname)
Trying 192.168.1.121...
Connected to adefaria.SALIRA.COM.
Escape character is '^]'.
CYGWIN_NT-5.1 1.3.18(0.69/3/2) (adefaria) (tty7)
login: adefaria
Password:
Login incorrect
login: Connection closed by foreign host.
Tried several times with what I know is my correct password. When I do
the same telnet to a machine running 1.3.17 it works fine.
Another interesting thing is:
$ passwd --status
passwd: unknown user adefaria
Clues?
