Server :: /usr/bin/xauth: Timeout In Locking Authority File?
Jun 3, 2011
[URL]
We have the same problem but tried his solution to no avail.
Doing a shh would give me an error..
Quote:
usr/bin/xauth: timeout in locking authority file /var/www/html/felipe/.XauthorityServer sent command exit status 1
When I change SElinux to permissive from enforcing I can login but turning back to enforcing, the problem comes back. I did the following...
Quote:
[felipe@nimitz ~]$ ls -Z .Xauthority
-rw-------. felipe felipe unconfined_ubject_r:httpd_sys_content_t:s0 .Xauthority
[felipe@nimitz ~]$ ls -lZd
drwxr-xr-x. felipe apache system_ubject_r:httpd_sys_content_t:s0 .
[felipe@nimitz ~]$ ps -eZ|grep sshd
[code]....
I tried to create a new user with the default directory in /home and it work fine.

I have installed vnc-server on my CentOS 5.6 virtual machine. I can connect to it with a java web browser so it seems to be working. However, I get the following error message when I start, stop or restart the vnc-server process. Quote: Starting VNC server: 1:ken xauth: timeout in locking authority file /root/.xauthkk661q

The setup is a central PC with XDMCP getting connections from two peripheral PCs. All PCs have normal Slackware installations (12.0 the central one, 13.1 the others). XDMCP works fine and the users login to KDE. The users have a common directory with appropriate permissions for group work.The problem is file locking. More than one users can open and work on the same file in the common directory, eg. foto editing the same jpg with GIMP.
Googling around I found that file locking is advisory in Linux, meaning its up to the applications to honour it. Also that there is a mand (mandatory locking) mount option which seems like the solution, but there are warnings [1], [2]. Other finds point to the use of versioning systems (svn, git) to take care of file locking, or network file systems (cifs, nfs): I'd prefer not to burden casual users with having to come to terms with a versioning system, and the network file systems seem wrong since the users work locally.
Considering Linux is a multiuser OS I am taken aback from this apparent lack of file locking support and tend to think missing something obvious.Has anyoneexperienced/solved a similar setup?A couple of last points. The common directory is on a normal mount (ext3, RAID1), fstab entry:
Code:
/dev/md0 /data ext3 defaults 1 2
And I'm aware of options like TSLP, but I'd rather resolve the issue generically.

I changed the user name using the User Properties window and rename the home directory with the new user name. Did not change the Group Name. The new name is ResearLab
When I restarted the system I received an error message:
Gnote Crash
gnote 0.7.3-4.fc14
Following are the messages:
(1) could not update ICE authority file/home/ResearLab/.ICE authority
There is a problem with the configuration server
(2) /usr/Libexec/gconf-Sanity-check-2 exited with status 256
(3) Nautilus could not create the following required folders: /home/ResearLab/Desktop, /home/ResearLab/.nautilus.
Before running nautilus, please create these folders or set permission such that natilus can create them.
A. What did I do wrong? Is it not possible to rename a user in Linux?
B. How can I correct this problem?
C. Should I have created a new user instead or renaming an existing one?
D. Can the primary group be renamed?

on boot I got a message that (part of) level 5 was skipped, and I ended up on console. So I tried startx but get this message (probably the reason boot failed also):
xauth: file /home/kostas/.serverauth.3396 does not exist
Fatal server error:Cannot move old log file "/var/log/Xorg.0.log" to "/var/log/Xorg.0.log.old"
consult the The X.Org Foundation support at X.Org Wiki - Home for help.

I am wondering if anyone has figured out how to turn off the file locking in openoffice 3.2. I have been searching the net for solutions, trying out the fixes, and as of right now I have not been able to find a way to stop the creation of lock files.
I have tried editing both /usr/bin/soffice and /usr/lib/openoffice/program/soffice as described in the links (below), but this has not helped.
Here are the relevant links I have found
[URL]
According to this thread, the method I tried (setting SAL_ENABLE_FILE_LOCKING=0) was based on earlier versions of openoffice.org It no longer works because as of openoffice.org 3 the file locking is built into the program.

I set the default os to boot as windows 7 with a timeout of 1 second. I thought that this would be enough time to switch os ubuntu when i need to, but I am unable to. How can i reset the timeout to 3 seconds? I also cannot view the ubuntu partition within windows because of ubuntu's file system.

I agree deleting .Xauthority files work, but thats not a good solution. I mean, everytime I have to run any X forwarding application I have to delete the .Xauthority file. Here is my scenarioThe applications that I want to run are on Linux Server [NFS] and the client machines [CIFS] that are having problem in locking theXauthority files are Macs which share the same domain as that of client solaris machine. i.e. The home directory of particular user on Solaris & the home directory of that user on Mac have same contents.When I ssh -X from Solaris to the server, everything works fine, no error messages.When I ssh -X from MACs to the server, I get the following warning messages.
Code:
/usr/X/bin/xauth: error in locking authority file /home/user/.Xauthority
/usr/X/bin/xauth is the path on the server. If I try to break the lock by sudo

I'm working on a kickstart install to automate a lot of monotony doing installs. When i use the kickstart install i get an error on boot saying "File based locking initialization failed" "no volume groups found". Then it proceeds to boot up with no issues and appears to work just fine. Below is the section of my ks.cfg for creating the partitions: %include /tmp/partition.cfg is included where the partition info usually occurs. The user is prompted in the pre script for how large they would like the partitions to be and then the script below creates the included file with partition info

I am on CENTOS 5.4 64 Bit Servers.
I have created a script which runs some commands on remote servers.
I am stucked when a server is not responding timely.
I want to set a timeout say after 10 seconds, if I am unable to login (for whatever reason) I should be dropped back at the shell.
I tried using LoginGraceTime but it is not working for me as below:
Code:
LoginGraceTime 10s

I'm new to this forum and pretty new to the Linux world. I'm currently working for someone and learning this as I go along and we want to be able to set up a machine so that we can display some kind of internet browser in a type of kiosk mode (without the fullscreen) on the gdm login page.
I've been able to find a browser to do that but we cannot edit how the gdm login screen boots to include the browser. I was told to try to see if I could remotely access said machine to start the browser on the same display as the gdm login which happens to use display :0. When I tried experimenting with xclock first, it would not let me run it on the same display short of me using xhost + command. I was told to try to use the xauth application to create my own authority file and allow permission but I don't know how to do this. I've tried several different combinations I've found on other forums and none seem to have worked.

My KNode gets a 'timeout on server' when loading newsgroups. I've read that you should tweak the server timeout (settings -> configure knode -> accounts newsgroupserver -> edit -> server timeout). However, when I try this out the properties window of my news server has no 'server timeout'. What can I do now?
(KNode version 4.4.8, KDE version 4.4.5)

Here is my setup:
Machine A (fedora, gateway on remote network)
Machine B (fedora on local network)
Machine C (Vista on local network).
I want to connect to machine A from C and run graphical apps on it. I figured that installing a vnc client will be easier then X server (last time I tried X server on windows it did not end well). To ensure security, I vnc into a local linux box (machine B) and then ssh over to the remote box. When I ssh (with the -X param) into A from B, everything works great including the graphical apps. However, when I vnc into B from C and then ssh into A, I get the following message:
Warning: No Xauth data; using fake authentication data for X11 fowrard If I then try to run a graphical app I get cannot open display:
localhost:11.0
why does X forwarding work directly and not through vnc?

* Correct me if I am wrong.* In web browser, if I go to a SSL site, I need to install a CA from the SSL site, so the web browser trusts it.* I assume my ubuntu box is working the same way.* That is if I need to do ldap bind or search, I need to install the CA and put it in /etc/ldap/ldap.conf* It works well, if I only have 1 CA in ldap.conf. * If I put 2 CAs in ldap.conf, only the last one will work. e.g.
BASE dc=a,dc=b,dc=c,dc=d
URI ldaps://somesite.com

No sure exactly what the problem is here? I am trying to get a X app running from a remote site on my desktop. I am using this proceedure:xhost +remote host xauth on local host the get 'Cookie'.
scp Cookie to remote host
xauth merge Cookie into .Xauthority
ssh to remote.
export DISPLAY=local host:0
xfig
xfig fails with "Error: Can't open display: local:0"
If I start another X using '-ac' ( not authinaction) and put to local:1 , all is well.

I have a box running Fedora 14 upstairs and I've been trying to get it to run VNC server, unsuccessfully. I've RTFM, and followed the instructions step-by-step, but it still won't run. I'm getting no error messages. But when I try to connect from either a Window or Mac client, it either get a timeout or connection refused. I've read and tried all the troubleshooting; been working on this for about 12 hours now. Is there something major that I could be overlooking?

I have an RHEL 4 server now running 2.6.9-89.0.18. After installing the kernel and rebooting to make this the current kernel, the grub menu to choose the kernel failed to offer a countdown and did not choose the kernel as it should have. I had to manually select the kernel.I inspected the grub.conf file and could not find any clue as to why it didn't work. The timeout directive is there, and the syntax matches other systems we have with the same kernel and OS.Can anyone provide any insight as to what else (other than a typo on the conf file) would cause this?The only difference between the way the kernel update (and the subsequent changes to the grub conf file) took place was a manual install of the RPM on the affected system, versus pulling it down from RHN using up2date.

I have opened the port I have specified in the ushare.conf file and in verbose mode, uShare sees every video I want to share. The XBox sees the uShare under "Computer", but I get a connection timeout when trying to connect to it. /var/log/messages shows no errors with uShare. I can connect to the uShare web interface without any problems. Most people seem to be using uShare with Ubuntu,

Everything worked fine for several updates to the final system, now suddenly when trying to login dropping out at runlevel 5 and login. When doing login the system starts as root with startx but not as user. This is for me a permission problem. Only: I did not change the permissions and I did not log into as a root-X system. I just did set the permissions in yast to secure. Nothing else. The system complains:
