Workgroup Manager Refuses Login

[lakecoder]

Howdy folks,

Changed the root password on this 10.5.5 Xserve and now WGM refuses the initial login (Workgroup Manager Connect). Can anyone have mercy on this pretending admin?

Thanks!!

Ok – more info 🙂

I [b]can[/b] login via WGM from other machines on the network just fine. Using the exact same credentials locally on the Xserve WGM reports:

[b]The login information is not valid for this server.[/b]

I see this in secure.log:
[code]/usr/sbin/PasswordService[65]: client response doesn’t match what we generated
— last message repeated 3 times —
[/code]
Again, I changed the root password on this machine. Any idears?

thx!
