My squid server works fine in fedora 11 system . Is there any web like interface for admins to create,change,modify users of squid and to view their logs.
I am using squid + dansguardian for web and content filtering. And it is working fine. I am forcing users to use proxy through browser configuration. Now I am planning to add another layer to controlling access using ncsa_auth program. I know it is not the most secured but I am fine with it. Plain passwords are fine with me.
I will be giving users some default passwords but I want some program for allowing users to change the passwords for the respective users if they want. Is there any perl script or something web based for the purpose that anyone is using or know of?
Using SLES11, squid 2.7, NO TRANSPARENT PROXY, and work fine. Now i need permit a some users only access to a pop from external mail (outgoing mail authenticated)

How can user access it on there web browsers to change there password.my squid, Sarg ,webmin as well as chpasswd are installed on my server 10.135.90.200. How can user refer to this server so that change password screen comes on his browser.

How to allow users to change their password in chrooted ssh as long as the modifications in the shadow file in the chrooted environment will not be applied on the system itself ?
My company has policy that user accounts expire once a month and they also get locked out if they re-try login more than 3 times (pam_tally). It gets very annoying every time they come and ask to get password changed.How do I let users change their own password? Also let the system email them every day for two weeks before password expiration and until they change their password?

It seems that karmic has changed the behavior of Gnome's cpufreqselector, so that it requires root authority to make changes, and those changes don't persist after a reboot.
Is there a way to make changes persistent? Is there a way to let admin users change the setting without having to enter a password every time?
I am not sure whether it's possible or not. We running squid proxy server for our office. We restrict users using ACL to access the internet. There is some who do the followings:
1. Create a own proxy in there box who has the internet access.
2. Other users use those box as proxy and access to the internet.
I installed SLES 10.2 with SAMBA 3.5.5.43 to retire our old Microsoft Windows 2000 Server and save some money. All was fine until last week when our chief asked to me to set password expiration for all clients. This morning, all users cannot logon because, when they logon, windows asks to change password and then it gives error error "Access Denied".
hello i am trying to change my password, but when i type in the new password i get this:"The password is longer than 8 characters. On some systems, this can cause problems. You can truncate the password to 8 characters, or leave it as it is."my question is what kind of problem could i get and how can i change so i have to log in every time i start the computer?
Right i did a clean install of Fc15 and used a custom layout with separate /home partition. when it all installed It had created /home in the /root partition. so I then moved the /home directory to the partition I intended, added the relevant fstab entries and re granted permissions etc to the relevant files. All done with a live cd.
the problem is when i rebooted all settings worked as the partitions mounted with all the /home directories and all my user settings are in tact but when i click home in KDE's kick off it tried to open root? So all im wondering is how could i change the default /home back to my user account? as all i seem to find online is how to specify a /home with useradd
I'm using Fedora 10 as a proxy server using squid, but I recently noticed that some users use the IPS's Dns to bypass the proxy and surf the web freely. So my question is, is this a problem with Squid or perhaps I can solve the problem whit IPTables.
The normal user is now in the sudoers group. How can i allow it to install programs using it's own password rather than having to know the super-secret Root-Users password?
I have Redhat enterprise linux 4 and it is used for squid. This machine is behind the Cisco PIX Firewall and it is handled by our network administrator. few days ago, my boss ordered me to allow Mail (Yahoo, Hotmail, G-Mail) only to some users and block every things for them. Here also, some other users (not above) have allowed downloading, movies etc and some users have not. I did it in squid as follow for users who required mail access only:-
I have a box that's used as an SFTP server. All users have restricted shell so they can only use SFTP to send and receive files. But it makes it hard to have them change their passwords. I thought that if we had a web page set up where the user could enter their username, old password, new password and confirmed new password, that this would be the easiest solution.
I have a server, with a trust relationship. Thanks to that, I can log in without being prompted for the password.But - I'm trying to Change the password, using passwd. I get:Unknown Errorpasswd: unknown user (uid=0)This is a NIS server, and typing passwd <account> brings up a prompt for the old password of <account>What should I check next? I only have a few days before the account locks out...
I need to write program (preffer Python) to change range for users. Does anyone know some library which can help me to do that? Maybe someone has written program like that?
I got during my last year of high school, and I recently installed Fedora 11. During the installation, I misunderstood one of the questions, and set my root password as what I wanted my account password. I want to go in and change it, because it's pretty easy to figure out and has me feeling really vulnerable, but it won't let me. I went to System-Administration-Root Password, entered my password, and put in a new one, but it won't let me click Change Root Password. The button is faded out and unclickable. I've tried several different passwords, and triple-checked each to make sure I typed it in correctly, but it won't work.
