Ubuntu :: Hiding Folders Inside Of Shared Folders?

Mar 27, 2010

I am setting up a lubuntu nas with all of my music, movies, etc on it. I want to give my kids access to my mp3 directory, so I can move all of the kid appropiate music into the root of my mp3 dir, in the same order I have all of my music sorted. Under the Music folder, I have them sorted, in folders, by letter. So A, B, C, D, etc... Now, in those folders are the respective artists. So where there may be something approipate in the P folder (say, Paramore), there is something inapproipate (say, Pantera)Now, when the kids go to the P folder, I don't want them to even see the Pantera folder. I just want them to see the Paramore folder. I tried a test using chmod 711 and chmod 700 on a directory with a test user, and the user can't access the directory, but can still see it

Ubuntu :: Linking Content Of Windows Folders To Folders

Mar 31, 2010

The Problem was I wanted to open my /home/Pictures folder and have it display the contents of the My Pictures folder in my windows partition. This way I could have ubuntu and xp using the same set of music files, picture files, etc. I was having a very hard time understanding how to get from here to there because I'm such a newbie. However I have discovered how to do it and I wanted to post it, in hopes it will make things easier for other newbies.This allows me to see every TYPE of document in /dev/sda8/Media (windows My Documents folder) without having to see any of the folders (My Music, My Pictures, etc).

Ubuntu :: Unlock Screen Invisible And Cannot Be Seen

Aug 24, 2010

When I lock the computer, and move the mouse to unlock, the unlock screen is invisible and can't be seen. I can still type in my password and manage to unlock, but I can't visually see the screen, nor can anyone leave me a message while I'm gone. This only seems to affect GL screensavers.

Ubuntu :: Any Way To Unlock File Info In Koala?

Jan 8, 2010

Is there any way to "unlock" file info in Koala to become visible in the properties of that file? For example, when opening an .mp3 in VLC and checking the information, I am able to see and edit extra info that I do not see when simply right clicking the file and selecting properties. Another example is that GIMP saves comments to images, but I have nowhere to view these comments once they are saved. I would like to see more info when checking the properties of a file, dare I say like Windows enables users to. So is there a terminal code or plugin that I can install?

Ubuntu Security :: Unlock The 'default Keyring'?

Jan 13, 2010

I think this counts as a security question. I didn't know where else to place this.It's really preventing me from doing some things, such as setting up the Empathy IM program for chatting and whatnot, and this default keyring really haulting any progress I can make on that front. It also pops up when I'm just booting up the laptop. My brother set the password and then forgot, so he tried all of these passwords and it would never work. It always pops back up several moments later and reiterates its question. It goes away when I click on 'Deny', but now I can't follow that same route when trying to set Empathy IM Client up. I would like to either do away with this password requirement, or just change it to something I can easily remember

Ubuntu Networking :: Can't Unlock Network Manager

Jan 21, 2010

I am working to connect several Ubuntu computers to a Hughs satelite radio via a Trednet switch. The ISP requires static IP addresses on our machines. Obviously, to do that I need to access the Network Manager.

When I click on the Unlock button the machines wait for a minute or so and return a "could not authenticate" message. It never prompts for a password.

When I loaded the OS on these computers in the states, there were no issues with the install or updates and configuration. Now that they have been shipped to Africa there is something which has happened to all the computers and they will not unlock.

If i reload the OS they do fine..

Ubuntu :: Unlock Login Keyring Freeze?

May 2, 2010

Im unable to login to my computer because directly on startup the "unlock login keyring" pops up, i can move my mouse around but cant click anything or type/use commands.

The loading also takes longer then usual. This is in lucid 64bit. I installed gnome-do the night before so i think it has something to do with that, but i really dont know what to do. I tried going into terminal (alt-f2), or killing the process with ctrl-alt-esc but they keyboard is useless (though not entirely frozen as i can turn on/off numlock etc)

Is there someway i can bypass this temporarily and then get rid of it (from bug reports ive read it seems deleting gnome-do will work)

Ubuntu :: Unlock Home Directory From LiveUSB?

May 26, 2010

I can't log in to my current install of 10.04 (x server doesn't start, or whatever, not too concerned about that), and I would like to at least get my files from my home directory, but most of them are inaccessible when I boot up with my LiveUSB of 10.04, due to permissions, I suppose. Is there an easy way to get them? I know the password to my log in,

Ubuntu :: Password To Unlock Default Keyring?

Aug 27, 2010

I just re-sized my windows partition on my laptop and installed 10.04.1. Brand new clean install. I set up my user account, gave it a password, and everything was fine until I tried to connect to my wireless. I typed in the security key for my wireless, and it asked for a password to unlock the default keyring. The problem is, I never set a password for the "default" keyring. I never changed my user password. I didn't auto-login, I entered my password. This was the first boot up of the machine after installing 10.04.1. I can't use Empathy, because the keyring cannot be unlocked. If I "cancel" it gives me an error saying the account details are wrong, but I log into my facebook, aim, and msn every day, so I know the passwords are correct.

I have read about other issues with the keyring and with the auto-login bug that is associated with it. I have also read up on the bug that occurs with that as well. I couldn't find anything about my specific situation, so I hope this isn't a re-post of an issue that has already dealt with, but I did look it up. If it helps, the laptop I am running is a HP Pavilion dv7-3065dx, and I have Ubuntu Desktop 10.04.1 x86 installed. Clean install and the only thing I have done was log in, connect to network, and try to set up Empathy. Both Empathy, and connecting to network, gave me the issues with the keyring. It appears that there is already a password for the default keyring, it is not blank, and my user login password does not work for it. I'm at a loss...

Ubuntu :: Ssh And - Enter Password To Unlock The Private Key

Oct 30, 2010

Since upgrading to Meerkat, I have been getting a pop-up window with the message "Enter password to unlock the private key" every time I attempt to ssh into a server that does NOT use password authentication. I know some people like the remember password "feature", but I prefer just a plain unadulterated ssh session in a terminal. Does anyone know how to stop this message?

So far I have unsucessfully tried:

None of the above worked - and I was sure to log out and back in before testing the behavior.

Ubuntu :: System Will Not Accept Password At Unlock

Nov 29, 2010

I recently did a clean install of Maverick Meerkat and copied a few configuration files from my old system. I can log on normally, and the system works just fine. However, when I lock the workstation with any method, the system will not accept my password. I'm certain that I'm typing it correctly (I tried over 20 times) and that the capslock is not on. When I reboot, I can log in again just fine. In other words, my password only works at initial login, not when unlocking the workstation.

Ubuntu :: Auto Unlock Keyring Lxde

Dec 5, 2010

I've installed lxde from the ubuntu server edition(for less bloat on my netbook)

I installed the lxde metapackage that is in the repository and installed network-manager

In the ~/.config/lxsession/LXDE/autologin I put

Quote:

@nm-applet

the problem I now face is that the gnome-keyring is always prompting for a password to unlock the keyring(which I do not want)

I've been trying to find the package that installs the gnome keyring manager to see if I can't tell it to autologin(one of the downsides to installing from scratch is finding the useful apps)

Ubuntu Installation :: Unlock User With ID Below 1000?

Dec 27, 2010

Deviating from Ubuntu standard, for compatibility with another system in our network (an intradisk NAS with restricted admin features) I have to stick with user IDs below 1000 (namely 501, 502, ...)

In the Ubuntu logon screen, the related users are not shown - and thus cannot be selected for unlocking a session that was locked due to inactivity.

I installed the pam package. I then added the @include common-pamkeyring line to my /etc/pam.d/lxdm file.

Here's my complete /etc/pam.d/lxdm file:

Am I doing something wrong? Does something have to be done differently in LXDE?
