[linux-help] Login Issue

[John Alexander <john.alexander@xxxxxxxx>]

OK, I found a pretty good one. I built this laptop as a gnome workstation
(RedHat 6.2), and, luckily, I built a user while I was doing so. I'm finding
that root can't login from the tty, and that my 'normal' user can. I did an
'su -' to root, and changed the normal users password. Now, if I (normal
user) log into the console, I still have to use my old password, but if I
(normal user) log in remotely, say, over ssh, then I have to use the new
password that I assigned to myself as root. What say ye?
