Server :: Rsync Using Www As User Gives Ssh Error - User Www Not Allowed Because Account Locked
Feb 11, 2011Apache is run as www as is all the files/folders. People are uploading via FTP, scp, so the problem is if I chmod so everyone can read, then rsync as a user it works until new files are added which then my ; if rsync fails with a permission denied. Now I can add a chmod in the script so everyone can read, but since www can already read, I figured I would just change my script to use www. I added the ssh key to his authorized_keys file, but when I try to just ssh in I see this in the secure file;
server sshd[29539]: User www not allowed because account is locked
sshd[29539]: Failed none for invalid user www from ip port 54983 ssh2
Now I read a few places already saying I need to add a password to the account, etc. but before I jump and try all I read, 1st major one, will this now break apache? Will this affect any startup things, etc. and .... will that unlock that user for ssh in or is there another preferred method?
Server :: AD User Login To Nagios - Unable To Execute CGI Scripts In Apache
Apr 25, 2011I have a nagios server monitoring around a 1000 hosts in our office. To make things easier, i've integrated apache into Active Directory for the website authentication. This works perfectly, however the Nagios website uses alot of CGI scripts to display information I get the message below when trying to show CGI scripts with an AD user. Local users work fine. 403 Forbidden You don't have permission to access /nagios/cgi-bin/status.cgi on this server. I tried adding the AD users to the cgi.conf file within Nagios (which works for local accounts) but it doesn't seem to work even with this change.

View 2 Replies View RelatedNetworking :: Allow Remote Access To Server Running On User Account?
Jul 11, 2010In the past, I've installed Internet services as daemons and as xinetd.d with no problems. Those approaches do not meet my needs. And, perhaps, nothing will.
- the service was converted from VB-6 to wxPython. It has a GUI which is accessed with either "remote desktop" or VNC.
- the wxPython service works on Windows and can be accessed from other hosts on my LAN
- the wxPython service works on CentOS and Fedora, but can only be accessed from within the server host. Even from other user-ids. But, I cannot get to it from other hosts.
- ipchains AKA firewall ports are marked for INPUT.
- The server host uses autologin to fire up a useid in group "user". I do not want it running as "root". the .bash_profile fires the service up.
- the service is heavily mult-threaded, and supports devices connected to serial ports asynchronously with the ephemeral port threads (all this works).
There are some programming solutions that I would rather not develop.
- a proxy service that runs under xinetd.d.
- separate the GUI code from the Internet and serial port code. Allocate a "control" port for remote GUI control. a'la SAMBA & SWAT
Is there any hope, that I can run it as is, by doing some network configuration stuff.
Networking :: In PPTP Server - Limit Bandwidth Per User & No. Of Connection Per Account?
Apr 2, 2010recently i rent a xen vps intended to setup a PPTPD vpn server for me and my friends. so we can by-pass the great firewall in china and get back on ....., facebook and stuff. i have already setup the server and i can connect to it without any problem. but i still want to do some further configuration the server:
1. i want to limit the bandwidth to 400k/s per connection.
2. i also want to limit the max connection per user a/c
i have some thoughts on the 2nd requirement. in the user configuration file of /etc/ppp/chap-secret, you can specify the range of ip the user can get, does it limit the max connection per user a/c? or they can connect anyway, just every now and then a box pop up says conflict in IP address?

Server :: Cron Reporting User Account Expired, Chage -l Shows It Never Expires?
Jan 4, 2010I've got a server running CentOS 4.8 (binary compatible RHEL 4.8 clone) that's decided all the accounts are expired.I've tried this on multiple accounts so far, to no avail.chage -l <username>Shows that the account never expires. In this case the problem was first noticed with the root account, then I tested it with my user account, and got the same answer, the account never expires.For the test I added a crontab to my account, and to roots, ever minute run "whoami"In the log I get (once for each crontab):rond[]: User account has expiredRecycling crond doesn't help, and I can't recycle the box itself as I've got users on it (pounding away at the poor box at that).
Several searches so far have only turned up that locked root accounts (ala debian/ubuntu) can cause this, and check or correct the age of the account using chage.Comparing entries in /etc/shadow to other boxes where everything is kosher doesn't seem to help either: the important bits are identical.

Now what I wanted to know was how I can set this up in a server and website where they can register an account and pay me through PayPal! I don't need help setting up the site! Just on how to set up the server to automate this. What tools are needed (ex. ISPConfig, jailkit.... stuff like that?) I don't mind doing this manually but if I get more people that would like this I don't really want to do every single one.

Server :: How To Test A Nagios Email
Sep 22, 2010This is an odd question, but I can't figure out why my nagios emails aren't being sent. In fact, I got my last one three days ago so it *should* be working.
I have everything in contacts.cfg, and the admin page tells me that the following should be sent: Unknown, Warning, Critical, Recovery, Flapping, Downtime
I also have notify-service-by-email and notify-host-by-email.
I have no idea if nagios emails just don't want to be sent or what -- and I'm not even sure if the nagios emails are even trying to be sent.
Here's my contacts.cfg code...
There's nothing in /var/log/nagios besides the mention of that email address in objects.cache, so I have no idea if an email was attempted to be sent. My sendmail queue is empty as well.
Meanwhile, I have some downtime on a service and didn't get notified. Only the web interface is helping me out here. Any ideas why I am not getting email? How can I run a test to see if everything's working okay?
