The problem was that the login prompt comes up fine. I enter admin and the password, and then then returns: “Unknown meaning for error number 0x6f; Please call a Novell support provider”
Right now, it works. I have done quite a lot of config work on this box but I think it’s because IPV6 was enabled. Not absolutely sure but 99%. That was the last major change I made – ie disabling it.
SUSE/OES11 by default installs it.
Just simply type:
echo “alias net-pf-10 off” >> /etc/modprobe.conf.local
echo “alias ipv6 off” >> /etc/modprobe.conf.local
or
Edit /etc/sysctl.conf and add this line:
net.ipv6.conf.all.disable_ipv6 = 1
or
Edit /boot/grub/menu.lst with an editor and add the boot parameter
ipv6.disable=1
at the end of the respective line of the kernel-entries.
Also you can use address IP instead of a “tree” name, but this does not work with GroupWise.
