General :: Let VNC Users See Normal Non - VNC Session?
May 13, 2010We have just installed VNC. It seems to work fine. If we connect to a remote system using VNC, on say DISPLAY 5, it works and we can run our applications. If another person wants to view this session, they can also connect to DISPLAY 5, and it is fine.
However, if you are just sitting at your own system, without using VNC, and someone connects to your system using VNC to DISPLAY 0, so you can show them what you are doing, they do not see your session, they see a plain startup session, not the session in which you are running your applications... How do you let VNC users see your normal non-VNC session? Have I configured something wrongly? We are new to VNC!

Ubuntu :: Samba Sharing Single Directory Not Subs?
Jul 28, 2010I have samba set up and working quite well, but I have several shared directories containing multiple directory trees, and for some reason the sub-directories of the shared one are not shared.Is there a way do set them to shared automatically rather than having to go through and set share for each and every one?

Dec 23, 2008I'm on the road with a laptop and my wife. I can get into various networks (like my father in law's) but just to make life nicer, I'd /like/ to only have to enter the wep key once ... in my profile. For instance: I get on the network under my profile. I then log off, and my wife logs on. She has to enter the wep key in her profile. She logs off and a cousin logs on (on our anonymous account that has limited privileges) and they also need to enter the wep key. Any way to share the wep key across all accounts? I'm using network manager in ubuntu hardy.

Feb 14, 2010I am using Ubuntu 9.10 desktop. I set up my main user- admin and loaded the folders of files I would be working on and the relevant additional programs. Now, I would like to set up a second user so that someone else can use the computer with access to many of my files and folders, but not all, which would defeat having a second user. I have set sharing preferences for all of my folders. I have giving most rights to my second user. Yet the second user cannot even see ANY of my folders when they sign-in.

Ubuntu :: Sharing Wine Installations With Other Users?
May 12, 2010sharing a wine installation across the system but I haven't managed to get them to work (you'd think that this is something that would have been implemented properly a LONG time ago. Crossover has a rubbish version of it but I wanted to get it to work in Wine).Here's what I did (it works insofar as office 2003 can be used but the menu entries don't (as of yet) appear in the different users' menus):
Regular install of wine, start wine on my profile and let it build all its stuff. DO NOT INSTALL ANY PROGRAMMES YET (I did the first time and it didn't work afterwards). Create user and group "wine" with disabled password/login and no home dir. Move system.reg and drive_c to /wine and chown wine:wine, chmod 0775 (both recursively, bien sur).
Add all users to the "wine" group. Make symlinks to drive_c and system.reg in my .wine directory. Copy ~/.wine to all the other users' home directories, delete user specific registration files user.reg and userdef.reg. Chown the .wine directory for each user.
Install Office 2003 (for me at least) or whatever programmes you want (I've only tried this is Office 2003).
chown wine:wine /wine -R because your installation will have messed things up a bit.
Now cd (in Terminal, obviously) to /wine/drive_c/users. If you ls you'll see a folder called Public and a folder with your user name (mine is "gideon"). cp your home directory (recursively again) for each of your other users who you want to be able to use wine. Chown their user folders to user_name:wine (recursively - I'm going to stop writing that, just assume it). su as each user, go into their user directory and you'll see something like this (ls -al):
Code:
drwxr-xr-x 13 gideon wine 4096 2010-05-12 13:09 .
drwxr-xr-x 8 wine wine 4096 2010-05-12 13:31 ..
drwxr-xr-x 3 gideon wine 4096 2010-05-12 13:10 Application Data

Ubuntu Networking :: Nfs And Sharing Users Between Boxes
Oct 18, 2010Ubuntu 9.10 So I have four boxes. One has all the users on it and it is the nfs-server. The other 3 are nfs-clients. I need to be able to share all users between the boxes. I have mounted the /home directory from the server onto the three clients as well as the /usr/local folder, however I am still unable to log in as anybody but the root on the clients.
I am not even sure how to search for this (I keep getting results on how to mount the home directory, and information about adding multiple users to a single box).

Ubuntu :: Can't Add Neww Users Guest Session Not Working
Mar 19, 2011Ubuntu 10.10 x64.It's been a little over a week since I *rebuilt my system after a gdm or gnome issue and now I'm having an issue with the guest session not working and I'm unable to add a new user. It says "incorrect data" or something like that. This is more than annoying. Why is my system decaying so rapidly? I'm not adding anything to the system that isn't approved by Ubuntu. it's virtually a stock build, minus some changes to the look and feel category. Is this possibly a security issue? My routers up and running and I turned on UFW.
.1) Can't add new users
.2) Guest session will not start.
.3) Should I be concerned about my security?
Ubuntu :: External Hardrive - Sharing With Other Users On The Same Computer
Jan 17, 2010I am having issues with sharing an external hard drive with other users on a computer. For example if I reboot and login with user A and then logout and login with user B, I am not able to mount the external hard drive. If I reboot and login with user B first, I can then access the external hard drive with user B but not user A. Is there a way that both users can use the drive without having to reboot every time?
I am assuming this is some sort of security issue. If I login with the second user and go to /mnt/external harddrive I get a permission error."You do not have the permissions necessary to view the contents of "External Drive"." If I login with the first user and try to set the permission it doesn't give me the ability?
Software :: OpenSUSE - Map Users Folders From Samba Sharing
Aug 24, 2010There are 3 computers:
- OpenSUSE (Workstation configured to log in using Active Directory Information)
- First Windows Server (Domain Controller)
- Second Windows Server (Provide shared folders for users to use)
How do I map domain users from second Windows Server (like \windowsserverusers<user>) to a folder (like /home/<domain>/<user>/<user_personal_folder>) in OpenSUSE computer ? It should be via samba right? Trying checking something in /etc/samba/smb.conf but couldn't find anything.
Fedora Security :: Top Shows 3 Users In A Single-user Laptop?
Jun 20, 2010I am running Fedora 13 - 64-bit variety and using KDE as the gui. No real issues asides from machine not exactly flying, but then this is a mere core 2 duo 1.6 with 2 gigs of ram, so not unexpected...
When I run top I see 3 users indicated - which worries me somewhat... I am the only user on this machine.
I come from a Debian / Ubuntu /Gentoo knowledge-base and this laptop is a fresh install, encrypted partitions, temp has own partition (encrypted too) and obviously the firewall is on, with ssh service turned off and ssh access removed in the firewall....
is this 3 users in top normal, or have i managed to be hacked in the 3 - 4 days since I started the install ? In all this time I have been sitting behind a router when on the net.
Am I looking at a fresh install, or are there valid reasons for the extra users?
I just ran "users" in terminal and I show up 3 times - I have only logged in once, through the GUI and no extra access routes

May 11, 2010Info about session timeout.
I use tmout = 15 min in my /etc/profile (along with readonly tmout). i have some issues i need to address, looking for ideas.

3. if user uses su to a higher level, are there now two sessions? is the tmout for user suspended until su user time outs or leaves su session?
4. i have some users who will run long sql queries. is there a workaround to have the session remain active until process has finished?

Nov 10, 2010I have a very bad attempt at hashing the components of an tcp session to assign/locate the session in a hash table bucket. I am pretty sure that it has a very high collision rate and when there are a very large number of tcp sessions my application is having to search a long linked list to find the session within the bucket.
All the hashing functions I have found take a single string input where I need to input several integers and hash them into a single result. My guess is that any real hashing function is going to produce better results than what I am currently doing.
