Security :: Sudo For Users But Only +r On Other /home/users Ubuntu 10.04 ?
Nov 1, 2010We are trying to set up a classroom training environment where our SIG can hold classes for prospective converts from Microsoft/Mac. The ten machines will have /home/student01..10 and /home/linsig01..10 as users. We want /home/student01 to be able to explore and sudo so they can learn to administer their personal machines at home. We don't want them to be able to modify (sudo) /home/linsig01. I've seen the tutorial on Access Control Lists but I'd like other input so we get it right the first time.

Networking :: Looking For Way To Log Users' Browsing History
Nov 2, 2010I've searched these forums as well as Firefox's site, as well as searching on Google Linux but can't find what I'm looking for.In a nutshell, I want to keep a log of my users' browser history so that even if they clear history or set Firefox to not keep history, I can still view a log of what site they have visited.My hope is that I can write a script(although I'm a BASH newb it would be a nice little real-world project for me to attempt) that would keep info such as user,visit date,ip of visited site, just the basics. A great feature would be for the logs to be emailed to me for inspection but that isn't vital if I can navigate to the log myself.
For all I know this is already available somewhere in the log folders I just can't find anything. If it helps I'm running Mint 9 Isadora and Firefox 3.6.12
Ubuntu Servers :: New Users Don't Have Bash History?
Nov 23, 2010installed Ubuntu Server Edition and I've found that my first user has a bash history and I can turn on a coloured prompt by editing my .bashrc etc but new users don't have that!I did : useradd -d /home/newb -m newbpasswd newband the correct looking .bashrc file appears to be in /home/newb but it is being ignore by bash when logged in as newb. Instead I am presented with just a dollar prompt instead of "newb@server"how can I sort out my users with proper prompts?

Sep 29, 2010Samba up and running on my pc. pc runs FC12 with kde. A laptop has win vista. The pc can access the shares on the laptop but the laptop has authentication issues to access the pc. Note that windows doesnt enforce authentication forincoming network connections.Using the system-config-samba util i tried to map a windows user to the unix user "feduser". The laptop (named LAPPY) has a user (lapuser) which has on windows no password.What should I tell samba config what the windows username should be? lapuser or LAPPYlapuser doesnt work because when accessing the pc via the laptop, the authentication fails. The only auth that is successful is when choosing the same winusername as the unix username.
Secondary, id like to setup the laptop so that the user doesnt have to provide a name and password, or at least not more then once in the lifetime of the laptop. Note that you cant provide an empty password to system-config-samba. How is that possible?
Strange but not really on issue imho:the samba - KDE control module(kcmshall4) (and the smb.conf) shows 2 shares: the homedirs and the data dir the samba server configurator (system-config-samba) shows only the datadir.

Fedora Networking :: Modify The Script To Allow Non-root Users Similar Features?
Mar 28, 2011I spent some time programming a useful script which presents the user with a UI of all the samba/W2K8 servers and shares on the domain and they check off the shares and the script maps them. The script can only be run as root because mount doesn't allow users to execute. I was asked to modify the script to allow non-root users similar features. I was able to get this working by running the commands:
Code:
# chmod +s /sbin/mount.cifs
# chmod +s /sbin/umount.cifs
Can someone please explain to me what the 's' option means? The man pages only go as far as to say that it allows for setting suid but I don't really know understand that means or what the implications are by doing this. In a perfect world I would like to create a security group and add users into that group and then grant that group permission to run mount.cifs/umount.cifs rather than making such a drastic global change to a core binary. how I might go about granting members of a group permission to run hand-selected commands like mount.cifs?
Post added at 07:07 PM Previous post was at 04:40 PM Ok, I read up on the /etc/sudoers man page and I think I have a more elegant solution to this problem of user mountable samba shares. I restored my mount.cifs back (chmod -s /sbin/mount.cifs) and I used visudo to grant the access.
Code:
%smbusers ALL=NOPASSWD:NOEXEC:/sbin/mount.cifs,/sbin/umount.cifs
This allows any users in the smbusers group to run mount.cifs/umount.cifs with sudo but without being prompted for a password.

There is a problem with the internal clock on my PC so at a regular time (every hour or day for example) I want to sync with my Network Time server. I use "sudo ntpdate time.bgr.local" as it is now and have to enter my user's password for it to work.I know root is disabled by default and would like to keep it that way if possible but if I have to enable it and then add it to root's cron list the so be it but would prefer not to.
View 5 Replies View RelatedSecurity :: Take Away Ability Of Using Sudo For Common Users
Mar 9, 2011I decided to consult you before making any changes, because the clients' PCs are spread all over the country and I do not have the physical access to their boxes.The idea is to take away the ability of using sudo for common users.I know that the syntax of this file may vary a bit in different distributions.Our OS is Ubuntu 10.10.I created the account 'support' for me and other technician stuff of our department. So, 'support' user must have all the power. And common users mustn't have access to 'sudo'. This is the requirement.As far as I remember, in Slackware the user must be a member of 'wheel' group to be able to use 'sudo' (but I may be wrong).
