Well, I finally realized that this system was originally setup without portmapper process running. Very tight security even better than C2. C2 security needs a process called rpc.pwdauthd to run. This process determines authentication for users and groups, once C2conv utility is run and setup. C2conv also reformats and re-locates the passwd and group files. To communicate to and from the pwdauthd daemon server requires RPC calls. NO, rpc processes will run if the portmap process is not. "portmap" is a server that converts TCP/IP protocol port numbers into RPC program numbers. It must be running in order to make RPC calls.
Thanks,

####### Original Question -- below ###################################
Admins,
I recently tried a few C2 configurations (C2conv) on a SunOS4.1.4 system. Each time after I reboot to multi-user logins hang via telnet, rlogin or console. The system wouldn't allow any logins. This is a standalone system (no nis and no secure NFS being used).
The system was installed with the SECURITY option.
It has a GENERIC kernel which includes SYSAUDIT, UFS, QUOTA and CRYPT.
Does anybody recognize this problem? Or have any input which could possibly help.
Thanks in advance,
Mark
