Fedora :: File Gets Password Protected?

Mar 22, 2010

This is sort of a weird question.'m helping an agency develop a Microsoft Access database. They use windows and I use Fedora. I can run Access in Crossover Office if I don't get too fancy.I've sent what I've done to them for their review and comments and somehow it has become password protected. I've checked the Access settings and their is no password set from Access. I've tried a chmod666 on the file and sent it to him again and he says it is still calling for a password

Ubuntu :: Password Protected .doc File; Only Opens As Read Only?

Nov 30, 2010

I created a password-protected .doc file in Windows yesterday using the latest version of OpenOffice (3.2.1)Opening the file worked perfectly; double-clicked the file, OpenOffice popped up and prompted me for the password, then it let me edit the document as usual.Tried it on another computer with Microsoft Word; worked perfectly as wellFor some reason though, it won't work in Ubuntu (10.10). I'll double-click the file, it'll open with OpenOffice and prompt me for the password, but once it opens it's in "Read Only" mode.I tried it on another Windows computer, just to see if it would work, and it did.I right-clicked the .doc file and looked at the permissions: (picture edited for privacy)Every time I tried changing it from "Read-only" to "Read and write" it automatically (and immediately) switched back to "Read-only"

Ubuntu :: File-Sync With Unison To A Password-protected Share?

May 11, 2011

Been thinking about a new backup-strategy for my family and me. In our house is an Ubuntu Server (10.10) and NAS (Zyxel NSA210). Now I thought I'd create a Cron Tab entry on all machines which will sync specific folders automatically to either the NAS or a specific backup drive in the server. So now the question is: "How do I do that without seriously compromising each family members privacy by making their backed up files available to everyone in the house?" So in essence I'd like to sync/back up the files to a password protected share for each family member. But this process should still be done automatically every few minutes or so without them having to enter any password at all as their specific password is stored locally.

Security :: Use Protected Password In Script?

Jan 18, 2010

I have a bash script that will unencrypt a file, use the unencrypted file for a very short time and then delete the unencrypted file. The problem is that my password is in clear text

[code]...

Obviously this isn't so secure, but I need the script to be non-interactive. How do I hash, encrypt or otherwise make secure the password for the openssl command? I know that the openssl can protect passwords, e.g.:

openssl passwd -crypt "password"

But can I use this protected password in my script?

General :: Change What Windows XP Considers To Be A 'protected Operating System File'?

Apr 1, 2011

At work I'm using a windows box with local and network drives. One of drives I have mapped is my Linux home directory (We have separate windows and linux accounts and home directories here). When I view it from windows, all of the files and folders beginning with . are shown, as would be expected. (Although . and .. aren't in any folder)

Just wondering if there is a way to tell windows to not show anything starting with a dot. I was hoping there's a registry entry or something that defines what a 'protected operating system file' is, so I could put dot files in the same category as thumbs.db etc.

OpenSUSE :: Cannot Open Password Protected Archives With Ark

Jul 31, 2011

Each time I try to just open a password protected archive with Ark it just shows a "Loading file" progress bar, but nothing happens after several minutes. And if I just right-click and select "extract" extracts nothing. It doesn't even ask for the password at any moment. I also checked the help typing "man Ark" in the console, but found nothing related to passwords. Has someone successfully opened archives with password with Ark? Or is it still buggy?

And on a side note, I can open normal .rar files, but cannot compress files. It says "failed to locate program RAR in the PATH". I thought Ark was all self-contained. Do I need to install something else?

Ubuntu :: Full Screen Webpage Password Protected?

May 31, 2011

really need to display a full screen webpage with firefox (with flash animations, etc) with some password protection against navigating away, closing firefox, etc.I am thinking that a good solution would be to set up gnome screensaver to display the webpage as it already has the password protection stuff. Anyway, I investigated this idea for a while and is seems that it will not work...As I want to have flash animations onto that page, a solution that captures the screen and passes the picture to gnome is also not suitable.

Ubuntu Security :: Accessing Password Protected Ext3 Files?

Jul 31, 2010

I have a drive that originally was used with a Linksys Network Storage Link (NSLU2), then stopped working with it. Now I'm trying to get the files off the drive. When I USB connect the drive to Ubuntu, I can see the files, but I'm unable to open them or copy them. The error message is: "Error Opening File: Permission Denied". I did have permissions set on the NSLU2. So far I'm not able to find a way to get around the permissions issue in Ubuntu.

I have used apps like EASEUS Data Recovery and Recover My Files. It appears that they are finding the files and are able to access them, so I know it can be done. I don't mind spending some $, but these apps are taking a *long* time to run. If I could properly access the files in Ubuntu long enough to copy the files, I think I'd be all set.

Ubuntu Servers :: Postfix Rejecting Password Protected Zip Files?

Mar 25, 2011

I recently set up a machine with Ubuntu 10.4 LTS to help to replace an aging VAX mailserver that was the DMZ mailserver for the company I work for. I set up a default install of postfix (via apt-get) to function as a DMZ border device that routes between two internal mailservers based on subdomain aliasing via internal DNS.

The problem is that although I have installed no anti-spam or anti-virus options, mail sent to this machine from any outside source containing a password-protected zip file is being rejected with error:

552 Password protected zip file found inside of the email

At first I'd thought that possibly it was the sending mailserver issuing this error, but after further testing I found that no matter the source, any password protected zip file is immediately rejected. Being as we're in a HIPAA-sensitive environment, this has been relied upon as a backup for people to do one time encrypted file sends via email. The file in question is relatively small, and I do not have any quotas on, and the same test file sent two ways (one encrypted zip and one non-encrypted zip) caused the encrypted zip only to fail.

As stated before, I do not use any type of antivirus or antispam measures, no header or body checks have been put in place, and in the course of trying to troubleshoot this problem, have probably opened my server up more than is strictly wise. I really need to enable this feature as being unable to take encrypted zips puts the entire migration at risk.
