View 1 RepliesSo I installed the latest Thunderbird security update without bothering to check what version it was and found that I had "up"graded from 2 to 3. Despite selecting 'no synchronization' on all my archived Gmail labels it still started downloading many gigabytes of archived email. In Thunderbird 2 I had just the headers of the archive and that suited me fine. So a warning about installing the latest updates without checking and a question: Is there a Thunderbird 2 package for slackware 13.1?
View 1 Replies View RelatedHalfway through upgrading from 9.10 to 10.04 (i386 desktop) using the Alternate CD, you are prompted to insert "Ubuntu 10.04 LTS _Lucid Lynx_ - Release i386 (20100429)".Luckily, I'd already burnt a full installation CD so swapped this and the run continued for a moment. It then asked for the Alternate CD again (20100427.1).If you haven't got a full install CD handy before you start, you may not be able to complete the upgrade.
View 9 Replies View RelatedSamba up and running on my pc. pc runs FC12 with kde. A laptop has win vista. The pc can access the shares on the laptop but the laptop has authentication issues to access the pc. Note that windows doesnt enforce authentication forincoming network connections.Using the system-config-samba util i tried to map a windows user to the unix user "feduser". The laptop (named LAPPY) has a user (lapuser) which has on windows no password.What should I tell samba config what the windows username should be? lapuser or LAPPYlapuser doesnt work because when accessing the pc via the laptop, the authentication fails. The only auth that is successful is when choosing the same winusername as the unix username.
Secondary, id like to setup the laptop so that the user doesnt have to provide a name and password, or at least not more then once in the lifetime of the laptop. Note that you cant provide an empty password to system-config-samba. How is that possible?
Strange but not really on issue imho:the samba - KDE control module(kcmshall4) (and the smb.conf) shows 2 shares: the homedirs and the data dir the samba server configurator (system-config-samba) shows only the datadir.
Is it possible to map a remote user to a local user in SSH? The object is to avoid using $ssh user@server and instead just do $ssh server instead.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI work as an system administrator for AIX and Linux servers. We have an FTP server running in Linux which has shared folders to Windows domain using Samba. The new requirement is to map users created to Linux machine to Windows users in such a way that, when a user logins into Windows machine with an ID say "X123" in domain "TEST", his access control to the samba shares should reflect based on the same user ID created in Linux machine.(FYI. Both the Windows and LINUX machines are in same network and domain). Please let me know the step by step procedure to configure Linux machine (smb.conf entries or any new file to be created for user mapping) to identify Windows user Login and provide access restrictions accordingly.

View 10 Replies View RelatedWe are trying to set up a classroom training environment where our SIG can hold classes for prospective converts from Microsoft/Mac.

We don't want them to be able to modify (sudo) /home/linsig01. I've seen the tutorial on Access Control Lists but I'd like other input so we get it right the first time.
View 3 Replies View RelatedIn other Linux distros I've used, new users are assigned to their own group (i.e. user 'joe', group 'joe') by default. To my surprise, when I create new users with my openSUSE 11.4, they are all assigned to the 'users' shared group by default.To test this, I created a new user called 'friends'. From my terminal, I can see how the new user files look like:
joe@linux:~> ls -l /home/friends/
total 40
drwxr-xr-x 2 friends users 4096 Sep 3 11:37 bin

Because I was browsing around in KDE and found out that I can view other users files and they can view mine.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a new server with Fedora 10. The root user can log in by SSH using an RSA key but for any other user the RSA key is ignored and a password required.Ultimately I wish to access an SVN server over SSH and would like to to have to keep entering a password. I have Googled this issue and found nothing.If I log on as root the /var/log/secure file shows that the key is accepted, for any other user no message is added and the password is requested.I have checked all the config files and as far as I can see they are all correct so I am at a complete loss as to why SSH will not use the users RSA key.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI wish to create several different users for different members of the family. They should all have different menus, and they should not be able to access some programs, above and beyond just the normal root blocked ones. Any personal configuration files (eg, bookmarks, saved passwords, logins for other programs (IRC, MSN, etc) should also not carry over. One of them needs to have KDE enabled as default (as it looks the most like windows). I however, would prefer to have enlightenment enabled as default for me. Is this in any way possible?

View 14 Replies View RelatedRight i did a clean install of Fc15 and used a custom layout with separate /home partition. when it all installed It had created /home in the /root partition. so I then moved the /home directory to the partition I intended, added the relevant fstab entries and re granted permissions etc to the relevant files. All done with a live cd.
the problem is when i rebooted all settings worked as the partitions mounted with all the /home directories and all my user settings are in tact but when i click home in KDE's kick off it tried to open root? So all im wondering is how could i change the default /home back to my user account? as all i seem to find online is how to specify a /home with useradd
wondering if fedora 15 users will get kernel 3.0 by update,, or is that a typicall update for FC16??

useradd -p '$1$S5P0QMGg$1RJ8yBPnDvyJ0SynNkESL1' mruser
The above password hash is for the word: password The easiest way to hash your password would be to grab it out of /etc/shadow
