Hi blinuxers!

Perhaps someone can give me some advice here.  I just installed Redhat 5.0
and everything works great.  I have the dumb terminal connection to my dos
machine working properly and I get a login prompt and my keystrokes are
getting from the dos box to the linux box the right way up and so on.  So
here's my problem...

>>From the console login prompt I can login as root and everything is just
fine except that I can't do much without speech and I'm not up to the point
where I'm ready to install emacspeak yet.  When I try to login from the dos
terminal, though, I always get a "login incorrect" message.  My other linux
machine is a slackware machine and I've never encountered this before.  Any
ideas?

thanks,
Chris
