Trouble Logging in.

[R. Todd Wall]

	My unix-pc is now having a problem logging in to it.  I have 3
login windows set up on the console and 2 logins from the serial port.

	After about 1 to 2 days, I'll try and log in on the console, or
via any other port, and it'll prompt for user name, then passwd, it'll 
tell you about a wrong passwd if you enter it wrong, it does everything
normal except ....  After you type the correct passwd, the hard drive runs
for about a second and just locks up.  You can toggle through the console
windows and try to log in again and it does the same way.  If you wait about
3 minutes, it'll close all the windows that are locked up.  It will not 
regenerate a login prompt.  
	If you reboot the machine it works fine for about another 2 days 
and then it'll mess up again.. 
	Anyone seen this problem and have any advice???
