I want to control Network manager from the command-line. This worked well enough in Ubuntu 10.04 (with cnetworkmanager, nmcli is another possible choice). Since the upgrade to Ubuntu 10.10 however, a DBus exception is raised when I attempt to activate a connection from within a SSH terminal:
Code:
org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.PermissionDenied: Not authorized to control networking.

It may have to do with /etc/dbus-1/system.d/NetworkManager.conf; This issue occurs only when I am ssh'd into the machine; in a gnome session I don't get the same issue -- with the same (admin) user account in both cases.
I have several local users on a F11 box. I want to keep one of those users from getting to the network. I could upgrade this machine to F12, if it offers a better solution.

Is there a console tool that can hide windows?
I am using xwininfo to get information about the window. It gives window id, and some additional stuff. This id should be enough to do any operation with the window.
I have a logitech wireless keyboard/mouse, but just lost the tiny usb wireless receiver.
I want to use my laptop as the keyboard for the other machine (Ubuntu 10.10) until I replace the keyboard and mouse.
Is it possible to control the console session's keyboard over ssh? I only want keyboard control, I don't want to use something like VNC because the video is too slow.
EDIT: I'd like to be clear that I want to be able to control gui applications running on the console session, so something like unix screen won't
I just added a 2 port network card to a system that is running Fedora 11, but it is INACTIVE. I open the Network Device Control to activate it but there is no network ports in Network Device Control. It is empty.It looks like the system recognize the card and loaded correct driver.

View 4 Replies View RelatedNew install of Fedora 14, all updates applied. If a USB flash drive is plugged in, get a Not Authorized message when Nautilus tries to mount the drive. The drive does show up in Places in Nautilus. From a terminal window, if you 'su' to 'root', then:
mkdir /mnt/usb
fdisk -lu
mount -t vfat /dev/sdb1 /mnt/usb
WILL mount the device, can 'cd' into directories, 'ls' to list files, 'cat' the files -- all OK -- so the device itself is fine. But from a regular user account, it will not mount the drive. Did 'chown' on /mnt/usb and /dev/sdb1 so that the user owns everything. The same 'mount' command as above gives the message "mount: only root can do that". Disabled SELinux as a test -- same result. Searched around but only similar problem was in this thread (buried in the middle): [URL] That's where the sequence above was suggested, which does work as 'root'. Where else would permissions need to be set? And what changed? This worked automatically in previous versions of Fedora

That second 320GB HDD that I'm not authorized to mount is where my backups are. Now that I've reinstalled over the Lucid that I trashed on my first HDD I need those. The drive appears under "Places" in the side pane of Nautilus, but not sudo Nautilus. If I could see it under sudo Nautilus I think I could just right click and change permissions.

View 6 Replies View RelatedFacing this issue where I need to ssh from a solaris server to Linux server.The flow is as below:
-Oracle Webserver on solaris server (oracle user) initiates a cgi script
-The CGI script then executes a shell on the solaris server that tries to ssh to linux server
Have already tried the below:
-Checked the permissions for the .ssh and related folder/files
-authorized keys updated correctly
-tried alternative ssh login from another user which works fine
Issue could be-
-I must try the first login manually, where I'll need to enter password and then the solaris server will get registered in the known_hosts of the linux server
-Cant do this because I donot have the oracle user access.
Please suggest a work-around to the issue that can be done from my end.
Or is it that I must simply ask the DBA to execute an ssh from their ends?
I feel little silly asking this, I accidently removed from my gnome panel my internet connection, volume control and battery indicator on F11. how can I add this back. It does not show up in the add to panel menu and the applications do not give you back the default feel.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI don't know how this happened, but my keyboard copy and paste functions have stopped working. Oddly enough, I discovered that I can only copy and paste by using the third mouse button. Pressing down on the scroll wheel after highlighting text copies the text, pressing it again pastes it Ican still use the Edit-copy and Edit-paste menu functions.
I'm sure it has something to do with all the tinkering I have been doing with my desktop. I have been experimenting with CompizConfig and Cairo dock, changing my themes and things of this nature.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI've a DHCP server in RHEL 5 and 100+ users in my network. I mapped 30 users MAC address with ip. Rest are getting ip address automatically. In my network, users tend to move from one department to another frequently. I've created scopes according to departments. (i.e. Dept A - 172.19.54.10-172.19.54.30 and so on for other departments).
1) I want to configure DHCP server in this way, that a client have to autheticated by DHCP server before receive and IP address.
2) Second, Whether DHCP server have free IPs in scope, but only clients can obtain IPs those MACs are mapped, rest should not without authentication or authorization.
I am running 10.04 Lucid Lynx 64 bit. Whenever I insert a CD or USB flash drive, I get the error "Unable to mount - Not Authorized". I can, however, mount these things by using the mount command from the console as root. I suspect that either the component of Lucid which is responsible for automounting has a bug, or there is some kind of permissions bug with the way Ubuntu sets up the primary user. Does anyone else have this problem? Is there a workaround? Should I file a bug report?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have ubuntu-10.04-desktop-amd64.iso loaded in Transmission, which starts every time I boot up. Today, I booted up and got these weird error messages from Transmission with the ubuntu-10.04-desktop-amd64.iso file. The message is: Tracker gave an error "Requested download is not authorized for use with this tracker." - Idle.
I thought that maybe something was wrong with Transmission, so I paused the torrent and then removed it. I then reloaded it and pointed Transmission at the download directory. Transmission verified the downloaded data and then spat out the same error message at me - "Requested download is not authorized for use with this tracker."
I then removed the torrent from Transmission, exited from Transmission cleanly, restarted Transmission, reloaded the torrent file, pointed it at the current download location, it verified the file was completely downloaded, and then got the same error message. I have a firewall running, and it has ports 51413 and ports 6881-6999 open for both TCP and UDP connections. These are the same settings that I had yesterday, and there was no error message spat out by Transmission yesterday.
I've found some older threads with the same problem and read a few bug reports also. Nobody has a solution that has worked for me.How can I get Ubuntu 10.10 to be able to use something as basic as a usb drive?
