I have a number of machines connected to a terminal server (annex).
Most work properly except one.
When the machine is in multi-user mode there is no output via the annex. When I connect to the annex port, i see the message "connected" then nothing.
If I telnet to the box and halt it, the telnet session dies and then I see all the remaining output via the annex as far as the OK prompt.
When I reboot the server through the annex, I see it come up, FSCK the disks, bind to the NIS server, syslog starts,
print services start and volume manager starts - then nothing, the terminal hangs.
I can then telnet in normally.
I have tried swapping the annex ports with another machine and using a terminal instead of the annex. But in all cases, output via the serial port stops when the machine is in multi-user mode.
As this is only happening on one machine, it must be something wrong with that machines configuration.
But what? Does anyone know of this problem or seen it before?
Thanks
Steve
