General :: Using Fedora 11 Password, Shadow, Gshadow, Group Files In Fedora 12?
Apr 28, 2010I recently mashed the passwd, shadow, gshadow, group files in my Fedora 12 installation. I was dumb and didn't take a copy of the originals and all I have is the originals from a Fedora 11 installation.

Aug 6, 2010I'm running RHEL 5. When using the GUI System>Administration>Users and Groups, I get the error: The user database cannot be read. This problem is most likely caused by a mismatch between /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow or /etc/group and /etc/gshadow. The program will exit now.
Some research showed that I need to use vipw and vigr respectively to find an inconsistency between these two sets, which I did - to make it easy I copied each from [vipw | vigr] to an excel file and did =exact(%1, %2). There are no inconsistencies.

View 3 Replies View RelatedGeneral :: Group Member Not Able To Write To Group's File?
Feb 8, 2011I have a group (GROUP) with a number of users. I recently added a new user (NEW). NEW is able to read but not write group files, whereas all the other users in the group can read and write to the group files. The permissions for the group files indicate that all members of group should have write permission -rwxrwxr-x
/etc/group indicates that NEW is a member of GROUP
...
GROUP:x:501:GROUP,OLD,OLD2,OLD3,OLD4,....,NEW
[code]....
Don't know if it matters, but both OLD and NEW write to the GROUP files over an internet connection. why NEW can't write to GROUP files? Is there a maximum number of members in a group that I might have exceeded?

Software :: EXT3-fserror: Inode Bitmap For Group 4 Not In Group
May 25, 2011I've been tasked with fixing a Red Hat system that dies with a kernel panic during the boot stage:
Code:
EXT3-fserror (dev sda1): ext3_check_descriptors: Inode bitmap for group 4 not in group (block 67239937)!
EXT3-fs: group descriptors corrupted!
mount: error mounting /dev/root on /sysroot as ext3: Invalid argument
I can boot into a Rescue CD, but I'm a bit out of my element because I don't use EXT3 myself, and I've never had to repair a corrupted file system before.

May 19, 2010I have a number of users, categorised into various groups. I would like one of those groups ("developers") to be in the wheel group as well. I don't want to just copy the people from the developers group into wheel, because then when that group changes I'll have to change it in two places. Is there a way to specify that anyone in developers is in wheel, and have that be dynamic?

Software :: Member Of Group Root / But Root Group Permissions Don't Apply?
Apr 20, 2010A bit of an oddity that I've recently run into with my storage folder in my system; it's a newly installed drive that I've set to mount at /storage. When I first tried to use it, programs that I used that attempted to write to it tossed Access Denied errors at me in their own way. Checking the permissions (at the Terminal, ls -l / | grep storage) showed that /storage was set to 'rwxrwxr--'--Owner and Group were given full read/write/execute, but Others could only read. However, my logon to my system is a member of group root. Why, then, with the above bits set, would I not be able to write to it? Changing Others permissions to rwx (and presumably rw would have worked out for me since I don't leave anything executable there) allowed me to write to it, but I don't understand why that would have been necessary. So far as I'm aware, the prior drive that was in my system--mounted at the same location--did not need this treatment.

Jul 11, 2011I'm using nfs to mount the folder /mirror from a server onto a node.
This works, except on the node the user and group are displayed as "4294967294".
On the server: ls -al ./ displays
-rw-r--r-- 1 cu cu 0 2011-07-11 15:08 test1
-rw-r--r-- 1 cu cu 0 2011-07-11 15:08 test2
whereas on the node
-rw-r--r-- 1 4294967294 4294967294 0 2011-07-11 15:08 test1
-rw-r--r-- 1 4294967294 4294967294 0 2011-07-11 15:08 test2
I have usermod and groupmod the username cu to have the same numbers on the node.
On the server: id displays
uid=1021(cu) gid=1007(cu) groups=1007(cu),109(admin)
on the node
uid=1021(cu) gid=1007(cu) groups=1007(cu)
I'm stumpeed as to what the problem could be.
I should perhaps add that the home directory is /mirror/cu (so that the users share the same account when mounted). Not sure if thats relevent though...
My /etc/exports file (on the server) looks like this
/mirror *(rw,sync)
and I do the mount (on the node) with
sudo mount server:/mirror /mirror
