OpenSUSE Install :: Can't Login To Root In GUI / Error Can't Establish Any Listening Sockets?
Aug 28, 2010
I was logged in as root, made some changes to my users and think I may have inadvertently changed root somehow. Ever since then, my machine runs just fine, I can sudo, Yast, etc without any issues. (Root password is fine) but when I try to log in as root, the system changes the screen display, as if it's going to login, then returns me back to the login prompt without error. If I "ctl+alt+F1", I drop out to the console and can login as root, but cannot startx because the display is already in use.... So, I removed the .X0-lock, but still cannot get the GUI to load. (after running rm /tmp/./X0-lock, I get a fatal error, "can't establish any listening sockets..." "Ctl+Alt+F7" brings me back to the GUI where I am logged in as myself in Gnome) if I login with my user account, everything runs fine and all is well.

I have Lenovo T61 with opensuse 11.4 which until this morning was working just fine. I have used OpenSuse on this notebook for about 2 years with out much trouble. This morning on boot up I could not login because GDM was not listening to the keyboard for some reason. I rebooted on a live disk and the hardware was just fine. I switched to init 3 in /etc/inittab and the keyboard was working fine. If I started X with startx it still worked fine. If I started gdm the keyboard was not working anymore, so much so that I could not do {ctrl}{alt}{F1} to switch to a virtual terminal or {ctrl}{alt}{bksp} to kill X, nothing. The mouse worked so I could reboot.
I installed KDM and switched to it instead of GDM for the display manager with yast and was able to login and everything is fine. I would like to switch back to GDM but it is not that big of a deal

I am very new (since yesterday) to Linux also new to web server setup. I have installed all LAMP components, including SSL as described here: [URL]. I have added LISTEN 443 Wanted to restart the apache server -> no success ! stopped it, now doesn't start at all:
Warning msg=>
(98)Address already in use: make_sock: could not bind to address 0.0.0.0:44 no listening sockets available, shutting down . .
Failed
I tested Apache and my PHP earlier and it worked. Now after SSL and FTP installation it doesn't work anymore! Also I am wondering about my server name, it is the set IP of the web server, surly i should change that? Only used link for SSL set-up, used diff links for apache php etc (also have java JRE installed as I will need that later for my app) also have GNOME available, but prefer command line.

I have just installed Ubuntu 10.04 and it works fine. Next, I attempted to install Apache 2.2.16 server on the machine. I was able to get Apache installed but I cant't get it to start. The command I used to get it to start is "apachectl -k start" and got the response "command not found". Then I used the absolute path which is "/home/Administrator/Downloads/apache/bin/apachectl -k start" and got the response"httpd: could not reliably determine ther server's fully qualified domain name, using 127.0.1.1 for ServerName(13)Permission denied: make_sock: could not bind to address 0.0.0.0:80.no listening to sockets available, shutting down". Please advise me on what to do. My eyes hurt from looking at the screen for so long trying different options and reading almost all the apache install instructions that exists. Just ready to have it up and running.

I was configuring usermod for vboxusers and reboot when suddenly I can't even login to my own account except for 'root'.
I had disabled user login before this. There is only 1 group when I checked in YaST which is 'users' and its group member is 'games'.
Why can't I login to home account?

Using openSUSE 11.4 (64-bit). Desktop is default KDE. All of a sudden I am no longer able to login. My desktop only has one user and when I key in the password (which I am 100% sure it is correct!) I get the dreaded "Login failed" message. I followed these instructions without success: How to reset/recover the ROOT password in openSUSE | SUSE & openSUSE Following the instructions in the above link, I tried re-typing the old password and created new ones too. But I keep on getting the Login Failed message. A strange situation

I just happened to lock myself out of ssh access on my xen virtual server since I changed the ssh port but forgot to open it in the firewall. No problem, I just access it through VNC in VM manager, I thought, however I have some special chars in my root password and the keymap through VNC seems to have changed somehow. So I cant login as root, nor do su or sudo. I can login as user. I need the sign " but can't figure out how.

Is there a better way

I am using opensuse 11.3. I am encountering a problem while trying to log in. The problem message was
"could not start kdeinit4. Check your installation"
I tried to solve this problem by following the instructions given in OpenSuSE 11.0 Could not start kdeinit4... i.e., I opened yast2 and then I had to select "software management" from there in order to update all the packages in kde4. But I got another error when I clicked it.
/usr/lib/YaST2/bin/y2base:/usr/local/lib/libstdc++.so.6: no version information available (required by /usr/lib/YaST2/plugin/libpy2wfm.so.2)
The error list continues. I cannot type whole error list ending with similar wordings as above as am using different computer. I tried to solve this one too by following the instructions in Relocation Error but I could not understand its line "...fixed the problem by taking /usr/local/lib out of ld.so.conf, and then running ldconfig" as am new to linux.

I am trying to deploy Kerberos and LDAP so users will be able to login in to a server on the edge of the LAN, and afterwards be able to establish a SSH connection to all the computers in that LAN without the need to type any passwords, and without the need for me to manage SSH keys [beside the SSH keys on the login server] and local user accounts.
1. When i create the users in OpenLDAP i use a template that i created by reading documentation from the Internet. In the template one piece of information that is neede is the UID. Is there any clever way the keep track of the numbers so i do not assign the same UID to two users, besides using a pen and paper?
2. For the users to be able to establish SSH connections between the computers, the host is going to be added to the keytab like this: ktadd host/client.example.com Is is possible to replace client with something genric so i do not need to mange these keytab files between the hosts?
3. Users will be logging on the the server on the edge of LAN by using SSH keys. How can i configure the setup so the users will recieve a ticket automatically when the logon without executing kinit and without entering a password, just by having a valid SSH key?
4. krb5kdc is running on all the network interfaces in the server i want it to only run on eth1, how can this be done?

I have found this link "Login Failed" message when logging in through RDP
I am suffering from exactly these symptoms. Can anyone suggest what the likely cause is? How would that bug/solution relate to my environment: openSUSE 11.3/xrdp 0.4.1-85.1?
And lastly, how can I find out if the update implied under "Additional Information" has happened?
