Debian Configuration :: Default Admin Password For Ntop
Feb 1, 2016
I installed it from the packages list and the eye candy has been good.
However, in trying to fix an error showing up in syslog
Feb 1 17:37:38 host ntop[30764]: **ERROR** Buffer too short @ dataFormat.c:144 (increase to at least 56) [230982 years, 187 days 7:107374]
I started looking at the configuration files; well attempted. It asks for a login. It isn't any user or root, but apparently is admin, but IO don't ever remember setting it.
Various web search suggests it is done at compile(downloaded compiled) /installation, but I have no recollection of entering any.
There is a Redhat/Centos wrinkle ntop -set-admin-passwd=password; but that puts out a lot of lines, then hangs and has no effect.
Note, despite message(old version of ntop), it is up todate in packages.

I'm using Debian Jessie Cinnamon right now. I've got 1 user account on my machine--fred--as well as root, of course. "fred" is an administrator, and many times that is enough for root priviledges, for example, I can install packages via apt or dpkg. However, I cannot access "Users and Groups", or install packages via GDebi, with my password. For that, I have to have the root password.
I know that it is possible to let the admin account handle everything and not even need root--for example, Mint and (I believe) Ubuntu do it this way. I don't know how, though.
Code: Select allgroups fred
fred : fred cdrom floppy sudo audio dip video plugdev netdev lpadmin scanner bluetooth
I did disable the root account by Code: Select allsudo passwd -l root to see if it would make any change. Nothing different happened except that I now can't use GDebi or access "Users and Groups" since the root account and therefore password is inactivated. Not a big deal to get it back, though.

I have set it up, but I'm not sure whether the admin username and password are set correctly. How do I confirm? Also, if someone has any links explaining the format of an LDIF file.

I thought these were the same password?In-fact, they WERE the same password on the set-up I currently have.But now, weirdly, I can log in fine but I the exact same password is not using in order to perform admin tasks.I've tried a recovery mode, console, and then "password (username)" in order to reset the password.This does reset the password I need to use to log in, but the password still does not work for performing admin tasks

I've got a Dell laptop with a dual boot with Ubuntu and Windows 7, but I want windows 7 to be the default OS. I can't seem to find anything on Ubuntu with any information. I had a look at some forums and it said I need to go into admin, but I don't think I have it. Does anyone know how to get Admin rights and how to change the default OS?

On this moment i build an webenvironment with wordpress, apache2, debian 8. On this moment i try to impelement Varnish.
By default this application use the port 6081. I try to put apache on port 8080. This already works but i get varnish not running on port 80.
You can see below that varnish still listen to the default port 6081. How can i fix this?
Code: Select allroot@webI:/home/beheerder# netstat -lpt
Active Internet connections (only servers)
Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address Foreign Address State PID/Program name
tcp 0 0 *:ssh *:* LISTEN 2917/sshd
tcp 0 0 *:6081 *:* LISTEN 3717/varnishd
tcp 0 0 localhost:6082 *:* LISTEN 3699/varnishd
[Code] ....
To test another port i have also try to start Varnish on port 85.
Code: Select allvim /etc/default/varnish
DAEMON_OPTS="-a :85
-T localhost:6082
-f /etc/varnish/default.vcl
-S /etc/varnish/secret
-s malloc,256m"
I have restart the apache and varnish services. I have also rebooted the server but varnish will not listen on port 80 (or other non default ports). On port 6081 the application works fine. But how can i fix this ?
Source Varnish port 80
I can use the application with the following command
Code: Select allvarnishd -f /etc/varnish/default.vcl -a 0.0.0.0:80.
But why is this not working with the normal config file. Varnish are than listen to port 80. With every server reboot i need than to run this command. So i would like to use the config file.

I run Debian Squeeze on my Lenovo ThinkPad W500. Today I tried to use the expresscard slot on the device and was disappointed to find that it didn't work. A bit of digging revealed that the pciehp module was not loaded (but is required for hot-plugging these kinds of devices).Can anyone explain to me why this is the case? All other hardware on my system has had the module auto-loaded on boot-up, but why not pciehp for my expresscard slot?

I know that in an xterminal I can redefine the default colour with something like
!!red
URxvt.color1: rgb:cc/00/00
URxvt.color9: rgb:ef/29/29
Is it possible to do something similar in the Linux (framebuffer) console?

I recently decided to try and change my admin password on my usual default account (the one you have to type in, in order to do sudo e.t.c im guessing)a the user account option...and having entered my previous password correctly,t will not allow me to enter a new password, it just seems to hang, (i.e the working icon appears, but having waited a minute or twwo nothing seems to of happened..(cannot press the confirm button). Is there a way to reset the password so that i can set a new one, if i cannot change my own admin password, and i was working on a windows system, i would be screaming system compromise right now, but as its ubuntu, im sure theres a perfectly innocent explantion

I am using Ubuntu 9.10 (along with Win xp). I have to authenticate everytime I mount filesystem (My d: , e: drives in windows). Or to connect to the internet (I use mobile broadband) I have to authenticate, also if I have to install something from synaptics I have to authenticate. I know this is good for security but I am the only person using my computer , so is there any way out of this authentication business.

I've tried several installs via Windows with the latest RC of Ubuntu/Kubuntu/Xubuntu/Netbook et al, and I've encountered the same problem all over: every time an admin password is required, for example to install updates or new applications, I enter it, but then, the authentication window freezes, even though I've clicked on Confirm or pressed Enter to validate the password.

I have a friend who just recently got an old computer from a college. The college had been shut down for maybe 6 months and decided to sell all their equipment computer ETC. In that amount of time the college had forgotten the administrator passwords for all the computers. Therefore the computer can not be updated or upgraded to the latest version of Ubuntu.Is there anyway possible to get the administrator password so that I may update upgrade and install new necessary components for the computer?

if you try to browse the web from the machine, or log in through a nomachine (nxclient/nxserver) session, it claims there is no internet conenction. You have to run System|Administration|Network and select the stored "Location" for our wired connection. There does not seem to be an option to make this (one and only) "Location" the default. If the machine is up and incoming connections are possible (samba & apache), surely outgoing connections should be working without extra fiddling?
The issue with nxserver (nomachine) becoming unavailable on a re-booted unattended machine (unless someone logs in AT THE MACHINE and runs System|Administration|Network) is causing problems for remote access.

So I was reading this thread on internet privacy and decided to 'upgrade' my system. I installed privoxy and tor and chained them from squid so it looks like this: iceweasel >> squid >> privoxy >> tor. All is working well except when I go to edit my privoxy default.action file I get a fatal error. I've got version 3.0.9-1 The original line in the newly installed default.action file. #+hide-referer{forge}
I edited it by simply removing the #. +hide-referer{forge} Then:su -c '/etc/init.d/privoxy force-reload'And I get this in the logfile.Sep 14 16:41:36.260 Privoxy(7f4fa64756e0) Fatal error: can't load actions file '/etc/privoxy/default.action': first needed line (361) is invalid: +hide-referer{forge} I've even copy/pasted from the manual and to no avail.Have I been looking at to much text for the last two days?What am I missing?

I have fresh install of SuSe11.2 64x My software updater applet tells me there are about 50 or so updates required. I check all and then click install, get prompted for admin password but then nothing happens except the software updater window closes and if I hover my mouse over the applet it tells me it is updating.
however hours later and nothing appears to have happened. If I click the updater applet all the selected updates still appear in the update window. I have added all the standard repos and have network connectivity. I'm a bit baffled here - it worked perfectly fine on my last 11.2 on the same machine.

When I go to "Software Sources..." in the Software Center, the screen dims bringing my attention to the password prompt. I find this quite aesthetically pleasing and am immediately aware that I cannot continue until I enter my password. This is the only time that the screen dims in this fashion when asking for my admin password. Is this correct? If not (or maybe even if it is), should this be considered one for the papercut ninjas?
