Hi,
  I wrote earlier about having trouble allowing users to log in remotely
to my machine.  I don't know if anyone can help me, but 
I would really appreciate it if someone could.  Here are the symptoms:
users who are trying to log in recieve a 'Login incorrect' message, 
even if they type the correct password.  I have 'fixed' it a couple times
to allow people to log in, only to find a few hours later that they
were no longer able to log in (with no one having touched the computer in
the interim...)  I have tried a large number of things to fix it such as
killing noremote, making them local users, etc.  I have reinstalled a number
of times, and am not doing anything locally other then try to allow local logins.
I have also reinstalled 1.1, and found that the problem doesn't affect that.

Thanks,
-jonathan
