General :: Both Normal Users Are Not Able To Access Dir1
Dec 14, 2010
I have created 2 users and changed their secondary group to grp1, then changed permission for a directory dir1 to 770(no permission for others) and group to grp1.
The both normal users are not able to access dir1. How is it possible to access that Dir using general permission (770).

We 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!

I read one release goal for wheezy which I had read few days ago, dnssec for wheezy.
[url]
Now the only thing I understood is this will make it harder for the bad guys to give any fake packages while I'm updating from a debian mirror .
Am I correct in assuming that ?
Also do I just have to install the autotrust package and wait for the dnssec-conf to be packaged and installed, correct ?

As per subject, what's the best way to run a CRON job for something that "normal" users need to run as SUDO? There is a problem with the internal clock on my PC so at a regular time (every hour or day for example) I want to sync with my Network Time server. I use "sudo ntpdate time.bgr.local" as it is now and have to enter my user's password for it to work.I know root is disabled by default and would like to keep it that way if possible but if I have to enable it and then add it to root's cron list the so be it but would prefer not to.

Is it possible to install Rawhide packages in F14 for normal users ? I see that Rawhide have F15 (as in Fedora 15) so it doesn't install. How can you bypass this? And what repo to use if you want to install rawhide?

I have shared two external harddrives via samba on ubuntu, but only I can access it. The reason being is because I have logged into linux, and become the owner of the external hdd's. On the permission properties, I can see that the group I have created every other user under has "No Folder Access", and if I change this it reverts back instantly. So frustrating, I've tried to chmod it which hasn't done a thing. The owner of the external hdd's seems to be the only person who can access it over samba.Is there anyway I can get normal users to just read and write to external hdd's?

Here's what I want to do: install ubuntu on a laptop and then create a normal user so that the user could install the normal upgrades without using the root account (or getting root privileges via sudo).
I know that this can be done by adding the user to the admin group, but this has (at least) two bad side effects:
1. The user can use sudo to gain root access. (And then do everything: install or remove programs...)
2. The update-manager doesn't seem to appear in the panel. (In stead it opens in the background.)
I could easily make a script that downloads and installs the upgrades automaticly, but I'd like to give the user a chance to choose when to do all this. So that it's not done for example when the user is using slow mobile connection.

I have set up an NFS server on Fedora 13, and I am connecting to it with Fedora 13 and Ubuntu 10.
On both clients the command
Code:
works fine. On Fedora I can get into the directory with Nautilus and have read/write permissions as specified in /etc/exports on the server, but on Ubuntu I can only get into it from a sudo'd command line.
The ownership of the file on Fedora is "nobody" and on Ubuntu it's "user #500", with only people in the "500" group having access to it.
Obviously the permissions can't be changed on the client, but with the Fedora box being able to read/write to it with no problems I'm not sure what else I can do on the server to let normal users on the Ubuntu box read it.

I'm using Sun One LDAP server, (Soon to be moving to openldap). I have one Master server, no slaves, about 60 user accounts.
I'd like to add an attribute to each of the users DN's to restrict there ability to login to specific hostnames. I.e. I have hosts A, B and C. Dev staff can access A and B, but not C, and support staff need to access all of them.
I found a link at [url] which talked about using 'hostsallowedlogin' and 'hostsdeniedlogin' attributes but I'm presuming these are bespoke. If they are, how do you configure the ldap.conf to take note of these attributes when authorizing access?

I created some users on my Ubuntu 10.0.4 machine a long time ago (whilst experimenting). Some of these users can login to the system, and others were prevented from login in. I can't remeber which ones can login. I have the following questions:
How do I find out which users may login to the machine? How may I disable an existing user account from login in? How may I re-enable a previously (login) disabled user account so it an login again?

I have a CentOS dedicated server running ProFTP. I have created user accounts which are meant for FTP access only but the users cannot connect to the FTP unless their shell access is /bin/bash
Here is an example line that is outputted when I use this command:
This user can access the FTP fine, but he can also access SSH which I don't want to allow him to do. If I set his shell access to /bin/false then he can't connect to the FTP.
What can I use in instead of /bin/bash to allow FTP but don't allow SSH?

OK, I have a very simple question.
Is it possible to share one folder between 2 users with full RW access without sharing every other directory they own outside that folder?
This seems straight forward enough to me. I've just asked it on #linux at irc.freenode.net but when we tried it became apparent that no one there could tell me how it was done.
