View 3 Replies View RelatedI recently installed vsftpd on my server. I noticed that users on the machine can login into vsftpd with their username and password on the machine and go to their root dir "/home/username".Now, I want to give some people a vsftpd username and password so they can upload and download files and folders to their folder, but this folder has to be in the "/var/www/(username)" folder. I don't want them to be able to go to any other folder than their own folder like "/var", "/etc" or "/home" etc. Also I don't want them to be able to login on the machine as a user, through putty for example. They should only be allowed to acces their folder with vsftpd, nothing else.

I went through System-Administration-Users & Groups to change my username. I changed my name and the name of my home folder to match. After restarting it to activate the changes, I get these messages when I try to log in: Could not update ICEauthority file /home/Moo/.ICEauthority; There is a problem with the configurations server (/user/libexec/gconf-sanity-check-2 exited with status 256); and Nautilus could not create the following required folders: /home/Moo/Desktop, /home/Moo/.nautilus

I accidently created an account with the wrong username. I need to change it to something else. I never done this before but I think you can issue this command "usermod -l login-name old-name" which only changes the username nothing else.I know I will also need to change the home directory to reflect the changes but I am not sure what to do.

View 3 Replies View RelatedBeen using 11.2 for a couple of months now, mostly I've solved my own problems or read from some preexisting already solved problems on threads like these. But, I'm not even sure where to start with this one. I cannot login under my main username, the account is set to autologin, and I get the login screen instead. When I attempt to login I get a black screen for about a second then it bumps me back to the login screen, no error messages. I'm able to login under runlevel 3, but as soon as I try to "init 5" it bumps me out and back to the login screen.
Root account works fine, and I used it to create a secondary account from which I am posting from right now. The behavior started after the system put the display to sleep while I was watching a movie in VLC, I woke it up just as it turned completely black, it hung there and I was forced to hard reboot. Had the problem ever since (for several hours now, lol).
I use Gnome but I installed KDE to see if it would resolve my problem, but no dice.
I was recently added to a group on the unix server. My active screen session has not been update to the new groups:
$groups
A B C D
$screen -r
$groups
A B C
Without closing my screen session is there a way for me to use my new privileges in the screen session? Or if not, is there at least a way I can save all of the different directories each of the tabs are on?
Is there a way to SSH into a server (my home computer) from behind a proxy that has a username and password? I read about corkscrew, but I was wondering if there is a simpler way.

View 2 Replies View RelatedWhen I installed Ubuntu on my laptop, I had chosen "automatic login" . So i was not asked ofr username and password everytime I switched on. I later wanted to change the settings. So I went to systems-->administration-->login window-->security. There I disabled automatic login and I reboot the computer. Now the GUI does not allow me to enter Username and password. It says "Authorization denied" at the login screen.

View 6 Replies View RelatedOkay, so, when I try to log in, it says it cant log me out because "Power Manager" is running, so i click log out anyway, then, once it's logged in it says "root" in the top right corner instead of my name. And, it's logged into the root account, and it's irritating me because to get to my documents and stuff, i have to navigate to /home/[my name]/documents instead of just clicking documents in the corner. Does anybody know how to solve this?
