Subject: Re: Installation Problems

My husband purchased Free BSD. I believe it is version. 5.3. He installed  
the disks and then entered his username and password. Then when he needs to
sign 
 in he again enters his username and password and nothing happens. He can't 
get  into the program. Do you have any information to help with this
problem?

Are you trying to log in as root? By default there is only one user account
on a freshly installed box. The user name is "root" without the "s and there
is no password for the account. Did you change anything on the box after the
install?

Regards
S.
