more help please

Hi,

I am now telneting from a unix machine but it is not recognizing the
passowrd I set for root. I've set the password numerous times and restarted
James. But it won't let me log in. I tried with quotes around the user name
and password "root" even though this shouldn't be needed. No matter what I
try it gives the same error "Login failed for root". I set the account in
JAMES.conf.xml should I set it somewhere else. Is it doing this because I
still have James on a MS 2000 machine. even though I can now telnet to at
least the login prompt from a unix box. Any thoughts

Thanks
Mike

I had the same problem (I'm also using Windows).

It seems that it's a bug related to the way in which James handles the
[ENTER] key under Windows.  As I understand it, this should be fixed in a
future version.

Only workaround seems to be to telnet using some software that uses
Unix-style keycodes for [ENTER].

At the risk of sounding stupid....

when i set James of for the first time... in my haste I set the root
password in the portion of the xml document that was commented out
showing the example....

Is it possible you did the same thing?

The correct section is further down the document.

RE: more help please

Posted by Danny Angus <da...@thought.co.uk>.
another common (it would seem) mistake is to change the username & password
in the comment at the top of the XML, forgetting to change the code lower
down.

I don't know how not to make that sound patronising, sorry!
