Security :: Allow User To Logon Remotely Using SSH?

Feb 10, 2010

Is there anyway to prevent a user from being able to logon at a machine (Terminal and XWindows) but allow that user to logon remotely using SSH? This user is for remote capture of logs only - on a private network (no internet access).

Fedora :: 14 - Logon Screen User Order ?

Nov 4, 2010

In fedora 14, the user order on GNOME login screen is completely different from that in fedora 13. Is there any way to order the users by date of creation ASC, not by name ASC?

Also, it is completely random. This time when I started my computer, my account was listed first. When I started this thread, it was listed last. What's happening?

General :: Logon User - Unable To Get Property

Jul 14, 2010

I'm working on a script notifying me after a client changes a log level on a given server. I get the following error after running the script:

LogonUser [
odeunivmo3domaincommon]: unable to get property
LogonPassword [
odeunivmo3domaincommon]: unable to get property

I get the email notification fine, the environment is set to common. I think the problem is somewhere in these lines of code.

SCP_USER=`${cer_exe}/lreg -getp \
ode\\${NODE}\domain\\${loc_env} LogonUser`
SCP_PSWD=`${cer_exe}/lreg -getp \
ode\\${NODE}\domain\\${loc_env} LogonPassword`

Software :: MySQL Initial User Logon ID?

Aug 11, 2009

I'm running Suse 11.1. MySQL is installed. I downloaded and installed the software for MySQLAdmin and MySQLBrowser, this was one software package so both got installed at the same time. My question is this; When I log into MySQL to use the Admin Tools it doesn't like my root password. So I log in as 'localhost' with the id of 'root' and no password and I get right into the main Admin menu. Why doesn't it accept the root password and how can I change the root login to need to have a password. Will just changing the password in MySQL Admin do the trick?

If you need to to exclude one or mode user from your gdm login window you must edit "/etc/gdm/gdm.schemas" and add the user you want exclude from the <key> "greeter/Exclude" (near the other user in <default></default>)

When Fedora could have a gdm config again?

OpenSUSE Install :: Empty User List Pre-logon

Dec 14, 2009

Sometimes my user list is empty on start-up. When it happens the buttons beneath the empty list (shutdown, suspend and restart), are not responding. As a work-around I login to the first terminal as root to restart the machine and usually my normal user account appears back on the list. This morning the reboot work-around didn't work any more..

Security :: Display Of Number Of Failed Logon Attempt At Logon?

Jan 26, 2010

Our system is based on RH4 and is using pam_tally and faillog to record failed attempts and to lock users out after 5 attempts. We have a requirement to provide a normal (non-root) user logging onto our system, with information regarding the number of failed logon attempts made on their account before the current successful logon (similar to the functionality provided by HP Protect Tools on Windows). My first idea was to add 'faillog -u $USER' to the bashrc, however by the time the bashrc is run - the user has been successfully authenticated and the faillog has been reset back to zero.

Fedora :: Launch A Bash Script (game) With A Shorcut?

Jun 11, 2010

I just downloaded a game Cube 2: Sauerbraten and I am trying to make a shortcut in Application->Games.

Basically to launch a game I have to double-click on a file, which is a script that invokes the rest of the game. After double clicking a dialog shows up that asks me whether I want to edit the file, run in terminal, or just run. I have no problem running it this way, but my shortcut in Applications->Games does not work. I have tried setting shortcut option to "Application" and "Application in Terminal" and nothing happens.

As of now the shortcut command points directly to that start script. I have also tried to do "sh /path/to/game" and still no success. How do I make that shortcut work?

Ubuntu Multimedia :: Simultaneous Application Launch In BASH?

Feb 28, 2010

I'm trying to launch CoverGloobus (a fantastic little album art and current song display) and Rhythmbox simultaneously through a BASH script. Problem is that when I attempt to run the script the first time, CoverGloobus doesn't launch, but Rhythmbox does. Here's my script as it is right now:

Code:

#! /bin/bash
#Opens Rhythmbox and CoverGloobus
rhythmbox && covergloobus
done

I've double-checked the commands in gnome-terminal, and they're the right ones for launching the applications. Here's where it gets odd, though. The second time I run the script, CoverGloobus and Rhythmbox launch simultaneously. I've reproduced this scenario multiple times.

CentOS 5 :: Can't Get Automatic Logon To Work In KDE?

May 11, 2010

I've just built a fresh Centos 5.4 install on a 533 MHz P3. This machine is going to be used as a thick client on a LAN. I'm trying to implement automatic logons to the KDE desktop but the automatic logon implementation isn't working as expected. I'm hoping that someone can tell me what I've done wrong. Here's what I've done so far:

1. Created a non-root user account named "bob". "bob" has generic low-level privileges on the machine.

2. I've tried to enable automatic logons using the following GUI menu selections:

Control Center > System Administration > Login Manager > Administrator Mode > Convenience Tab

General :: Launch Multiple Screen Sessions From A Single Bash Script?

Jul 11, 2011

I've written a script (that doesn't work) that looks something like this:

#!/bin/sh
screen -dmS "somename" somecommand
for i in {0..5}; do
screen -dmS "name$i" anothercommand $i
done

For some reason, if I copy and paste this into a terminal, it creates 7 detached screen sessions as I expect. If I run it from within a script, however, I get only the first session, "somename," when I run screen -ls.

Edit: If the same can be accomplished another way (e.g. with multiple screen windows instead of sessions), I would be open those solutions as well.

Security :: Getting Access Denied When "user Must Change Password At Next Logon" Is Checked?

Mar 1, 2011

I have got a RHEL 5.6 server configured to authenticate via a Windows 2008 domain controller via LDAPS.Everything is working fine, except from the following: When I create a new user in Active directory and check the option "user must change password at next logon", the new user cannot logon and gets an "access denied" message. In /var/log/secure, I find the following:

Mar 1 14:43:21 cpssvn10 sshd[5363]: pam_unix(sshd:auth): authentication failure; logname= uid=0 euid=0 tty=ssh ruser= rhost=192.168.3.12 user=testuser2
Mar 1 14:43:21 cpssvn10 sshd[5363]: pam_ldap: error trying to bind as user "CN=CPSS Testuser 2,OU=IBM,DC=cpss,DC=smarterplatform,DC=com" (Invalid credentials)
Mar 1 14:43:23 cpssvn10 sshd[5363]: Failed password for testuser2 from 192.168.3.12 port 4583 ssh2

As soon as I uncheck the "user must change ..." option, the user can log on without problems. Also password change via the passwd command works.

Debian Multimedia :: How To Launch Desktop By Startx As Normal User

Jan 27, 2016

As a long time FreeBSD user, I consider give Debian a try upon the arrival of my new laptop. However, seems I couldn't launch desktop environment by simply typing startx on console as on FreeBSD. I can start desktop through a display manager like lightdm on Stretch, which is quite easy and straightforward, but I still prefer the "startx way".

I setup Debian Stretch on Virtualbox (4.3.43) using official debian-installer, login as a normal user, and install xfce4 via Code: Select allsudo apt-get install xfce4. The installation of xfce4 was very fast and it also introduced xorg related packages here. Then I edit my $HOME/.xinitrc as follows:

Code: Select allexec startxfce4

I typed startx to expect Xfce desktop but got the errors complained instead: [URL]....

while the xorg.0.log had the following contents: [URL]....

So, I failed to start xfce4 by startx as a normal user and had to install and start lightdm to go into desktop, but when I login as root, it worked and launched Xfce4 by startx without any problem. I couldn't figure it out now.

1) added include in /etc/openldap/slapd.conf to /etc/openldap/schema/redhat/autofs.schema

# See slapd.conf(5) for details on configuration options.

# This file should NOT be world readable.
