Software :: Can No Longer Access Smoothwall Admin GUI
Sep 27, 2010
After a power cut I needed to restart my Smoothwall 3 box. Things are working fine, except I can no longer access the GUI to open ports (https port 441, or http port81) etc. I get a "(111) Connection refused". I would just reinstall, except my kids have opened up a number of ports over the last few months for games but without keeping a record, and would struggle to have to start from scratch again.
How I can solve the "refused connection" issue, or alternatively, do you know which file on the box stores the port config info so I can take a copy of it before reinstalling. I have looked at /var/log/dmesg and notice I get a "segmentation fault" for the line /usr/apache2/sbin/httpd -DSSL and am guessing this is significant to the problem, but I don't really know what it means or how to fix it. I have rebooted several times, over several days.

While messing around with file permissions and ownership of /var/www/ i seem to have locked myself out of being able to administer users on my 9.10 system.
when I go to the user administration screen in the icon with the keys is grayed out. with the message "not authorized to make changes". My account seems to have lost admin access. But, I'm the only user on the system.
I presumed I somehow changed my group status from the root group to something else
but, sudo usermod -g root [my name] just returns "no changes made"
All I can do for now is run as the su from the terminal. Is it possible to log into gnome with a root account?

Whenever I try to do anything that requires administrative permissions, including Synaptic, the Update Manager, or installing something on the Software Center, the "Starting Administrative Application" task comes up on the window list, but then the window does not come up and whatever action was supposed to be taken does not happen; no error messages, nothing. Also, whenever I use su or sudo in the command prompt, nothing shows up when I type my password; then when I hit Enter, it gives me an authentication error.
EDIT: It seems that the "Add/Remove Applications" program as well as the Software center do not have this problem. Synaptic and the Updates Manager, however, still do not work.

I'm dual booting XP and UNR and I want to give users access to the windows file-systems but not to admin of Ubuntu.
At present I have given them a Desktop user account but that doesn't allow access to the XP file-systems. The only way I can see to enable that is to go to Advanced User Setting and allow them to Administer the System - which I don't want to do.

First off, since this seems like a networking issue I put it here, but if it should be somewhere else, the powers that be should definitely move it over.
I'm using Ubuntu 10.10 on Dell Presario M2000 I have made sure that all updates have been done.
As the subject states, the admin account (mine which I'm posting to the forum with right now) can access the internet and see webpages. The user account on this laptop (my underaged sister who my parents don't want full access to the computer) will not access any webpages, it just continually looks like its loading.
I have made sure the wireless card drivers are installed and activated.
Also, I ran iwconfig and ifconfig and here are their results
p { margin-bottom: 0.08in; } Results of iwconfig
lo no wireless extensions.
eth0 no wireless extensions.
wlan0 IEEE 802.11bg ESSID:"myqwest4137"
[Code]....
These were both run from the user account. At this point it looks like its connecting to the internet through the wireless card as I was also able to run the update manager through the user account and have it download the updates (after putting in my admin password of course).

This isn't an Ubuntu question as much as it is a general Linux question, but is there a text based Linux emulator (preferably BASH) similar to DOSBox?See, I need GAS, Gnu Linker, gdb... pretty much everything in binutils, as well as a platform to test my programs at school, which runs Windows. I've tried VirtualBox, VMware and QEmu; QEmu is a b**** to access any files outside of the VM, VMware is hard to get portable, and all 3 require administrator access. I've also tried CoLinux, which requires admin access, and PortableUbuntuRemix, which gives me some unnecessary GUI and slows the computer down

This is the set up I have: PC downstairs by a tv, with 3TB of storage containing my media, connected to the tv too. HTPC upstairs by another tv and connected to it. A few laptops and other desktops around the house which are windows based
I want the downstairs pc to act as a file server and to run my torrent client, it is running Ubuntu desktop version and has xbmc installed too for use with the tv. The upstairs htpc has xbmc live on and will access the media from the file server. What I am looking to do is to be able to log into my ubuntu machine remotely from a laptop running windows so I can manage the files and add torrents for download etc, but for this to be a complete remote session, rather than taking control over what is already being shown on the downstairs pc, like VNC does in windows.
I have two user accounts set up on the main ubuntu machine, the admin account and a media user account which is set to go straight to xbmc after log in. Also how can I make sure that the media drives are automatically mounted to allow access if the admin user is not logged in?

Over the last few years of using Linux as an alternative to That Other System, I started with Red Hat 9 and moved on to FC3. I have no web access with RH9, and FC3 no longer has audio. It used to, but I recently was obliged to do a fresh install, and up2date no longer does anything. I suspect this is because FC3 is so old. I need the updated kernel in order to have audio. Time to move on. I see that Fedora Core goes up to FC11 now, and I was wondering if anyone had suggestions as to which of the more recent FC distros is better than the others, or, alternatively, which one(s) to avoid?

I have web application running on my server and can access this over the GUI.
This morning I can no longer access the gui interface. The activity LED flickers non stop on my nic card. I cannot ping or ssh into the server. However can access it directly from console and system is responsive when doing that. So i think this is a n/w issue... Any thoughts? How can I troubleshoot this?

I don't know what I did but I can't connect to the network any longer. KNetworkManager finds it but I can't connect. It stops at waiting for authorization. I've been connected before and it still works in xubuntu but something happened here. Here is what /var/log/messages/ says
Code:
Apr 1 20:06:27 linux-ec26 kernel: [ 2568.174423] wlan0: authenticate with AP 00:12:1e:b3:2b:02
Apr 1 20:06:27 linux-ec26 kernel: [ 2568.175913] wlan0: authenticated
Apr 1 20:06:27 linux-ec26 kernel: [ 2568.175916] wlan0: associate with AP 00:12:1e:b3:2b:02

can no longer access the internet,Deleted Network Manager thinking I could reinstall it and it would be back to its default settings. Had not been able to get online for days. Offcourse now I can't get Network manager back as I have to be online for that. I think I had stuffed up the proxy settings but can't work out how to get that back to default either. What do I do now and how do I do it?

I tried Ubuntu 10.10 after occasionally using other distros of Linux from time-to-time on friends' machines. After deciding it trumped Windows in almost every way, I decided to install if from a USB stick. The installation appeared to work and I followed the instructions that were given on the Ubuntu download page. After it restarted, it booted back from the USB stick asking again if I wanted to try Ubuntu or install it. I tried to shut down however the only options I get in the power off menu (on the top right) are Suspend and Hibernate. I ended up turning the computer off by holding the power button on my computer (I know this has probably hindered me more than helped but I needed to shut down).
When the power was off, I removed the USB stick and tried turning on the laptop again, however, I no longer get any options to get into my BIOS settings, and NOTHING will boot. I just get a black screen with a blinking white cursor in the top left corner. I can still use Ubuntu by using the ''Try Ubuntu'' option when running from the USB stick but quite obviously this is not ideal. I know I have probably wiped Windows Vista from my system (I had most data backed up a week or so ago, so all the important things I still have, however, if there is any way, I would like it all back). Any way to do a Super-System-Restore to revert back to Windows (if this is even possible).

I installed Linux on my Y drive, and all went well until I tried to boot into XP again. I can't access or install an operating system to my other three hard drives, C, X, and Z.I think that during the install my hard drives were changed to something other then NTFS, but Linux won't access them either.
When I use my Windows XP or Windows 7 disc, it says the drive has 0mb free, and it can't install until I delete the partition, then reformat. I don't want to do this obviously, because I don't want to format all of my data.When I go to Places > My Computer it lists my CD drive, Filesystem, and the Y drive. It doesn't show my other three hard drives.Under Palimpsest Disk Utility I can see my other three drives, but I can't access the data on them yet.

Original HOWTO can be found at: [URL]... So the other day I was in IRC and someone had brought up a problem where they created a new Administrative user, but didnt have rights to use sudo. Looked into the problem a little bit to figure out what was wrong, and it turns out that when you create a new user through the user manager (in kubuntu, anyways. Havent tested in Gnome.) the user gets added to the adm group, however, a quick look at the sudoers file shows that its looking for users in the admin group to allow the use of sudo. So, to solve the problem we do the following: If youre on the new admin user (which Im assuming you are) use the following commands:
Code:
su [insert username of old account without brackets]
sudo usermod -G admin [username of new admin account without brackets]
exit
Then simply logout, and then log back in (not always necessary, but the easiest way to flush the permissions.)
Code:
su [insert username of old account without brackets]
Means were going to Switch User to the old admin account
Code:
sudo usermod -G admin [username of new admin account without brackets]
This simply adds the admin group to the secondary group list for the new user
Code:
exit
Pretty self explanatory

I'm running window xp and unbuntu 10.04. I ran into a problem where I reinstalled unbuntu by erasing old one under CD boot. During installation, it asked me to place files and i placed it in /. Now when I log in as single user (only user or other at login screen) and try to change any system files, it said I don't have permission. I can't change anything or access root file. I try chmod function and it said i don't have permission as well.

I have a samba server on my LAN. It can be accessed without any problems from Windows machines on the LAN without password. I have two computers that I have updated to OpenSuse 11.2 (both used to run 10.3). Since doing this upgrade I can no longer access the samba share from the Suse machines. Basically, both Dolphin and Konqueror ask for a username and password to access "avoca" (the workgroup).

2011-04-11 11:57:03 UTC I don't know what happening with my centralized log-server running octopussy. Currently it is working in a vmware setup with approx 980 Mb ram and is set in bridge mode. Currently is it set to receive logs from logs devices which are 4 in number one of which includes the core isg-1000 device. This setup is still in its test form....now what happens after some time (sometimes it taken days and sometimes just hours) when the connection (https) is suddenly lost to the apache and i can no longer access the interface. What happens more strangely my Ethernet interface gets shutdown on ubuntu. I have to restart the services by issuing /etc/init.d/networking restart.
Even at times it itself start receiving network packets on its own; without even restarting; i don't what the hell is wrong with the server. I cannot understand its erratic behavior. I need a sound and reliable Ethernet connectivity at all times because coz of loss of connectivity in my case would mean loss of logging functionality. I dnt want any time-gap in logging ...as im currently logging some highly critical devices on this server.

I've recently been experiencing an issue connecting to my Samba shares on a Ubuntu 10.4 server box on my network from a Windows 7 client. If I use Ubuntu 10.10 on the same machine, or a Windows XP Virtual Machine running under both Windows and Linux host the share works absolutely fine.
What happens is if I browse to the hostname or the IP address I see a login prompt (there is access control) but my username and password no longer work. Before I didn't need to login as they are the same as my windows credentials.
I'm not sure what information/logs etc would be most relevant so I've posted some information, if any more is required then let me know where to find it and I'm sure I'll be able to get it.
Here is the last few days of the log when I believe it was working, there are no entries since.

I have a Nikon Cool Pix 990 camera which I could access under Fedora 11 (and previous) using digikam and/or gphoto2. However under F12 and F13 it no longer works. When plugged in I get a Nikon Camera icon that the system thinks is a usbfs. However the camera is too old for that interface. If I unmount the device then it shows under usb-devices as having Driver=(none). How can I get it to be recognised as a non-usbfs device ?

I've had everything but /boot on LVM LUKS encryption since I installed 11.4 on my netbook. Suddenly it won't accept my password and boot. Nothing had been updated since the last successful boot. The only possibly different thing that occurred was that I had plugged in my Android phone to charge before it booted up. Anyway, the specific error it gives when I enter the password (and I'm absolutely sure it's the correct password):
Code:
No key available with this passphrase.
Here is everything else on the screen:
Code:

Creating device nodes with udev

Everything was working well between my Windows 7 shares and all three of my Ubuntu machines. I just replaced my buggy belkin router with a Netgear one and now none of the Ubuntu machines can open my windows box through Nautilus. All three (one 10.04, 2 10.10) can see the Windows box but when I click on it I get the never ending password prompts. My Mac can access the Windows 7 machine fine, and all three Ubuntu boxes can access the shares with CIFS/autofs. I just can't browse the available shares using Places->Network. I'm lead to believe something on Win 7 reset when I changed the router but after two days I'm at a loss as to what it could be.
