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?

View 9 Replies View Relatedthe laptop of my friend runs ubuntu through wubi. The system suddenly freezed and she restarted it manually. After doing a check disk and automatically repaired some packages(unfortunately she doesn't remember what exactly, only just inode information appeared), she can't log in as when she types her username and password the answer is authentication failed. We tried to change the password through recovery mode but nothing happened.
1. Do you have something to propose to solve the login problem?
2. If not how can i access and back up her ubuntu documents through windows?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI just installed Fedora 12 on a laptop. I changed the default shell on the root account to /bin/tcsh and changed the runlevel to 3 and then rebooted. Now I can't login into the root account: it returns me immediately to the login prompt and I can't see any error message (the screen is cleared).Why is this happening?Can I boot into some sort of safe mode so I can undo my changes to the /etc/inittab and /etc/passwd file?I tried booting with a Live CD with the intention of mounting the filesystem and making the changes, but the new filesystem is a LVM and it won't let me mount it (or I don't know how to mount a Logical Volume).

View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to run OpenSUSE 11.2 on VirtualBox (ver3.0.8 on Ubuntu 9.10). The installation proceeds without a hitch, but when I try to login, the login manager (kdm?) complains that the login failed. When I go to the console, my login/password do no work there either. I've tried installing OpenSUSE 11.2 three times -- the first two times, it complained about the simplicity of my password -- and all three times I've run into this problem.Have other users encountered a similar problem? It doesn't seem like a VirtualBox-specific issue. Is the /etc/password being changed somehow?

I would love to use the latest Ubuntu in this machine. Please let me know if it is possible to configure a ubuntu/xubuntu in this machine. I need to be able to login with my corporate user_id/passwd, because many of the tools use this for authentication. so just doing a ubuntu installation in this machine and mounting the n/w location would not help.
I have tried to install openSuse several times and the same problem would persistRight after installation, when the prompt to log in shows up, I enter a username and a password, but it says that login failed. I am sure I type in the correct data as I have written down the username and the password I register during the installation.Also, after the installation finishes, the computer restarts automatically, though instead of restarting it goes into a mode similar to stand by. The screen is blank and the media buttons of the keyboard are lit, but nothing happens, so I just restart manually. Could this have something to do with it

I was reading /usr/share/kde4/config/kdm/kdmrc and see this 3 lines:

Somehow an app on this box seems to have disappeared long ago which was configured to start immediatedly with a root login (eg su). Now, whenever upgrading permissions to root or logging (and assuming login as root), an error displays saying "cannot find <application>"
Considering root usually is different than other logins, am not sure where to start looking on an OpenSuSE box. I've tried without success
BASH -v to enable verbose mode before executing a "su."
BASH --debugger to enable debugging mode before executing a "su."
Logout, Login as root and inspect /var/log/ hoping to find some logfile that audits the login sequence, but may be looking at a wrong logfile.
