Display type: cgthree
What were you trying to do?
Log on.
What's wrong:
The workstation reported that;
23:37 /etc/athena/cleanup: /etc/nologin already exists, not performing cleanup.
and upon attempting to log on I got an error stating that cleanup
was currently in progress and that I should wait a few seconds and
try again.
After trying serveral time, I couldn't log on. [I logged in as root
and rm'd /etc/nologin."
What should have happened:
cleanup should have "cleaned" up after itself in the first place!
Please describe any relevant documentation references:
