View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm new to ubuntu. Now iam using Karmic Koala. I want to change my password. So i used,
system->Administration->users and groups to change my password . As i entered my new password and clicked on 'Change Password', It is saying, 'password changed'. But when I click the close button in the main users and groups window, it is asking for my password, and I am forced to enter my old password only.
After the window is closed, i logout to check whether my password is changed. But it is not. I have to enter my old password to login.
Is it best to do this via the terminal or gui interface? does this meanthat the home folder encryption password is the same as the old login password?

I suppose that my main Linux user account password serves as my SSH password as well. Is there a way I can modify this? As it turns out, I'd like to have a REALLY secure SSH password for obvious reasons, but a less secure local password, as it makes typing in passwords a heck of a lot easier on a machine. Is there a way I can change my account password in SSH without changing my Linux user password?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am looking for a utility that would do the following:1. Be run manually on a list of files whose sizes should not change, to get a control file containing the sizes of each file.2. Subsequent manual runs would report any changes in size of any of the files in the list, and allow option to accept the new sizes.3. Be run as a cron job to check for changes in the file sizes and send an email alert if a change has occurred since the last time it was run.The purpose is to detect possible hacks of key files on a website. It would not include files expected to change, but just those that should not change. It would be run manually a few times to get the control list one wants to monitor.
