Ok here is my situation. I recently signed up for a free shell account and when I attempt to log on to the account it lets me put my username in but it wont let me put my password in, I was using the Windows Telnet app. then I tried another one and I still had the same problem. I even tried to use the telnet in my linux and I still had the same problem. I continually get an incorrect login prompt. Am I doing something wrong or could it be the shell account itself? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanx.
