OpenSUSE :: 11.4 Konqueror User Account Bug New Account No Bug
Jul 16, 2011
I have a problem with the Google search box top right corner in Konqueror, when entering search I recieve an error page "Unsupported Protocol" Google asks for ioslave or kioslave. Also when highlighting text on a page and right clicking with the mouse no search option is given. I created a new user and all works as it should for the new user. What is wrong with my user account? I have reset default values in Konqueror setup.
i m not able to create new user account to my new install of 11.2 don't know whether it occured due to update problem or some installation failure. when creation a new profile through yast it gives a warning sub-domain not started and quits however a new user get added through cli but with no profile of its own. that user cant log into gui enviroment and when he/she logs through cli it automatically tranfers it profile to "/"(i.e root) i m using kde4.3
I've used it recreationally in the past but am now attempting to deploy an OpenSUSE LTSP server in my wife's computer lab at her school. really like to make it easy for her to give the kids instructions for the day via a text file/pdf located on the kid's desktop. What I'd like to do since there's 500 kids that she teaches is create a shared folder for each grade that she just drops the assignment instructions into. I'd like to avoid having to add a link manually in each user's /home/*/desktop folder, so is there an easy way to do this?
In case the above isn't clear... 1) Create folder on teacher's desktop that is set to share 2) Create a link on each user's desktop to enable them to access said folder 3) Ideally, all new users will have a specific folder based on which usergroup they belong to (1st grade, 2nd grade, etc
openSuse v11.1 Linux 2.6.27.39-0.2-default x86_64 VirtualBox v3.1.0
One user account completely ignores all keyboard input. No other account demonstrates this bizarre behavior. The faulty account has had occasional keyboard difficulty but it has always been related to the Virtual Machines (VirtualBox); the hosting account always functioned correctly.
Then the ban on keyboard input. Poof! "Keyboard? What keyboard? I don't see no stinking keyboard!"
It is not the physical keyboard. Three different hardware exhibit the same fault. It is not the motherboard; two mb's show the same fault. It is only that one account. And I even took the Windows route of re-installing the OS (what a waste of time that was).
If something changed, I am not aware of it (although something must have).
My install of 11.4 has been running perfectly for for several weeks now. But- (always a but) today it started acting up. I cannot log in to any user account including Root after logging out. After a cold boot I can log in again anywhere but after logging out I have to reboot again then I can get back in to any account once. After logging out any attempted log in causes the splash screen to blank for a few seconds and then it comes back with the previous successful user name log in but typing in the password blanks the screen a few seconds again. Clicking on a user account also blanks the screen a few seconds and then it again comes back with the previous log in users name.
I cannot log into the normal user account after shutting down the OPENSUSE 11.1 system by cutting off electricity. The system always returns to the login page which requires to choose account id and enter passwd even when I type in correct normal user id and passwd. The root account can be used.
I manage to get my mobile broadband working (connected, I mean) in both root & user account. However, my web browser, IM etc only work in root account.In user, knetworkmanager does show that my Huawei E160G is working fine, connected but I still can't surf the net & chat. I've included the dialout & uucp group for user account but that still doesn't resolve the problem
I have like 4 email addresses on one Ubuntu One account and I'd like to remove them all except my current email... I also have an old account I'd like to delete. I used the contact form but to no avail.
Apache is run as www as is all the files/folders. People are uploading via FTP, scp, so the problem is if I chmod so everyone can read, then rsync as a user it works until new files are added which then my ; if rsync fails with a permission denied. Now I can add a chmod in the script so everyone can read, but since www can already read, I figured I would just change my script to use www. I added the ssh key to his authorized_keys file, but when I try to just ssh in I see this in the secure file;
server sshd[29539]: User www not allowed because account is locked sshd[29539]: Failed none for invalid user www from ip port 54983 ssh2
Now I read a few places already saying I need to add a password to the account, etc. but before I jump and try all I read, 1st major one, will this now break apache? Will this affect any startup things, etc. and .... will that unlock that user for ssh in or is there another preferred method?
I have a user account which is required to run as part of the operating system and as a service. I am currently attempting to install my companies software on an Ubuntu desktop via wine just for the purpose of finding out if it's do-able.
Is there a way, in Ubuntu, for a user account to be given the local rights assignment to act as part of the operating system and to function as a service in the background?
i am having problems with privileges i have created a new user with my name, but i cant get root privileges on it. i need the same privileges as the root profile.
I've been running smoothly for most of the time but last time I booted my Lap a login screen appears. I had this disabled as I'm the only one using that machine. After trying several times it appears none of my passwords works. I log in as root (offline mode) to reset the pwd and then log in again with my standard user. Fine again and I disable log in so no account is asked when booting. As I got a new access point I had to reconfigure wireless connection. Shortly after I do so (1hr approx), the Wireless gets disconnected and it request my WEP key again. I entered and verified several times but no connection. I confirm with another device that the wireless is working and the WEP key is correct. So I restart to see if this fixes my connection and ,surprise, log in screen again and no pwd is recognized
I haven't touch that machine again but I'm afraid a malicious SW can be stealing my pwd. Only SW I have installed is from the official repositories
I recently created a new user account in ubuntu linux, and created a file called xsession so that I can boot directly into xmbc when I log into that account. Is there anyway to delete the home folder for that account. I can view the file but when I try to delete it is says I do not have apporite permisions to delete the file.
I removed the account and deleted the group but it still shows up when I type in the address /home/xmbc
Is there anyway I can delete this file. It also will not let me create any new user accounts is there any way I can fix these prolbems without totaly reinstalling the system.
i cant log out of my user account without shutting down the computer, and no one else can either. computer can't be turned off unless i, (administrator)have logged out, this can't be a default setting surely.
I tried to add a samba user account on an Ubuntu machine called "video" like I had on another Ubuntu machine, but it's telling me it already exists. At one point I had added the user via terminal, but the user did not show up in system-config-samba (the popular samba gui a lot of people use). So now I'm trying to re-add him and it's not working. Likewise, if I use terminal to sudo smbpasswd -x video, it says failed to find an entry for that user.
As far as I can tell, the user doesn't exist - yet I can't add him because it "already exists."
the OEM account was created when I just installed Maverick (10.10) and now I've changed the password on that account and want to create a daily user account, cannot locate where I can do that.I want to learn Linux badly but am completely in the dark beginner right now.
So I was creating a backup user on my Ubuntu machine, and realized that there was already one there. I wanted to have a user account that only had permission to scp data archives to my backup directory. Is there already a mechanism in place via this backup user to do just that? Or does this account have other uses and should be left alone?
I have two Fedora 10 boxes. Both have a user account, Andrew. I use this account all the time.
Now when I put my USB drive (ext3-filesystem) in box I, create a file in it. It works. But when I attach it to box II and try to access the files, it gives me error - Permission denied. I have to use
Quote:
sudo chown -R Andrew
Only then I am able to access the files in it.
When I attach my drive to box I again, it also gives me error - Permission denied. So in both boxes, I have to use
Quote:
sudo chown -R Andrew
first. Otherwise I get Permission denied message.
This means Andrew on both systems is different. How can I make Andrew account on both systems same? So that I can access files on my usb drive without running chown all the time.
two days before I have formatted my / partition and everything seems to working fine. Next day I came to office and try to login as root through ssh. I am getting the error: [sunheer@svn ~]$ ssh root@192.10.10.23
I thought the password were wrong and I rebooted the server in to run level 1 and reset the password and it started to work. Again on next day the account got same problem.his started to happen after formatting the / partition
I'm still quite wet behind the ears with CentOS/Unix. What I'm trying to do is to setup a non interactive user, where I login with an interactive user and su to the non interactive. I have set the non interactive with /sbin/nologin (through the GUI), but when I login with the interactive user and su to the non interactive user I get the following: "This account is currently not available".
Im pretty sure this is trivial to config, but I havent had any luck searching on google.My situation is: I want to forward any emails sent to my domain to another account. So:
just started using Debian today and I would like to know how can I disable the user acount password, I am the only user on this computer so I would like it to boot strait into my account.
I made the mistake of using the command 'adduser' on an already existing user. I was incrementing a name and mis-typed. Now the account refuses to recognize the users password. The user can get in.
I tried resetting the password as administrator (passwd 'user'), but when the user tries, the new password isn't recognized.
I tried expiring the account password (passwd -e user). The user gets prompted for a new password, but the new password still doesn't get recognized.
