Problem : Error: 3004-004 You must “exec” login from the lowest login shell.

Hi ,

Recently I had just set up AIX5.2 with CA-TNG Enterprise Management. After successfully setting up CA-TNG Enterprise Management on the machine, I was unable to perform a telnet session to the server through a remote client. I encountered the error “3004-004 You must “exec” login from the lowest login shell.” whenever I tried to establish a remote telnet session. I can only login to the server through the console. Any help to enable remote logins?


Solution: Error: 3004-004 You must “exec” login from the lowest login shell.

this happens when you invoke a tsm as root with strange params
like some OpenSSH builds from bullfreeware do whe you enable “UseLogin” or PermitRootLogin” or “Compression” etc.

man tsm
man login
