Ok here's the deal. I am running a Dell Poweredge dual P3 @ 600Mhz running Red Hat 6.5. I have been testing RH 7.1 for the last month or so on my own machine (Dell Optiplex GX300 @ 700Mhz), having found very few problems, and finding it more secure and stable than RH 6.5, I decided to go ahead and upgrade the server. The install went along great, no problems.
I then rebooted the server and the login prompt came up, I entered my username and hit enter, the screen refreshed and I was back at the login prompt, it never even gets to the password prompt. Every now and again you can see "login incorrect" flash across the screen before it refreshes.
Of course it you keep entering login names the system halts displaying an INIT: Id "1" respawn error.
The only way I can access the server is in single user mode, which is a not a reasonable procedure for updating the content.
I have searched all over for a solution, no one in the history of humanity has appearently had this problem. Anyone have any clue as to what went wrong?
