I just reinstalled ubuntu lucid after accidentally damaging it, And I used all the same passwords and user names as before, I can login fine, and I can do sudo commands, but the gnome keyring wont accept my password, I tried changing my password using Applications>accessories>Passwords and encryption but that didn't work. How can I fix this so that keyring will accept my password, I need it to save my wireless router password.

Ubuntu Security :: Keyring Keeps Asking For The Password?

Dec 21, 2010

Every time I log in, I get the "password for keyring default" question two or three times, unless I enter it immediately as it pops up, sometimes even that doesn't prevent it from respawning. What could be causing this? I'm using Maverick.

P.S. Hmm, I don't think I'll be watching the lunar eclipse much now, the sky is covered with smoke, maybe it's lunar apocalypse.

Ubuntu Security :: Cryptsetup Won't Accept Password After Normal Reboot?

Feb 2, 2010

Strange thing happend two days ago. I just wanted to reboot my computer and now I'm no longer able to boot o0. My system is runnig with a full encryption with luks/cryptsetup. I'm using a passphrase to unlock my first partition and it will unlock the others by itself. So far so good. But now it doesnt work anymore... I'm not sure what I did before, but what I know, I didn't change anything! about cryptsetup. I did only a little "update" with the recommended packages from the repositories (guess only 4-5 updated)

I already checked with live cd and same thing there. Not able to unlock any device (what seems strange to me, cause there are 4 of them and all corrupted at the same time...?)

I always get the error message: unlock failed, bad password or options? (on boot) Command failed: No key available with this passphrase (live cd)

First thing I did was checking wheter all modules are loaded:

Code:
ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ lsmod
Module Size Used by
sha256_generic 11580 0

Ubuntu Security :: Keyring Password - Why And How To Stop Being Asked For It?

Sep 28, 2010

When I installed Ubuntu (Lucid) on my new computer, As well as the login password I was asked for a keyring password. I gave one, but I am not sure exactly why I need this password. It seems that it was required to let me access the wifi - even though this has its own security code. I found I could stop the system asking for it every time I tried to connect to the internet using wifi by checking a button in the network setup, but when I registered for Ubuntu One, I was again asked for it - twice, once when I registered and again when I set up Tomboy notes sync. Now I get asked for it again every time I switch on.

I would like to know why the keyring passwords are needed in addition to the login password for a single user computer, which mine is and also how I can stop it asking for this password when I switch the computer on. One suggestion I have seen is to make the keyring password the same as my login password. If that is the case, then how do I change the keyring password?

Ubuntu :: Su And Gksu Don't Accept Password?

Sep 1, 2011

I have this issue on both Ubuntu and Lubuntu 11.04 64-bit on 2 different machines. I have not tested 32-bit.

When I run synaptic or update-manager it presents me with gksu, not gksudo as it previously did in previous Ubuntu releases, no matter how many times I try it will not accept my password.

I have even given it command line arguments to print the password to the terminal and it's correct.

I have found a workaround - by running gksu-properties and changing the mode from su to sudo it will now display gksudo and accept my password.

However, I want to know why it won't accept my sudo password for the su and gksu commands? There are no error messages which are outputted, the gui just says incorrect password.

OpenSUSE Network :: Network Manager Requires To Enter Password Every Time - Login To Unlock Password Keyring?

Jan 29, 2009

I've tried Ubuntu, Arch, and most recently Fedora but the SUSE GNOME environment blows everything else away!

The only problem (so far) is that Network Manager requires you to enter your password every time you login to unlock the password keyring. I want to disable this.

I think some distros disable the prompt by using the login password to unlock the keyring, but I use auto-login (if that makes a difference).

early when I first installed the terminal and sudo were working perfect but now, this is what I'm getting:

[sudo] password for dimebag:

Sorry, try again.

I tried every solution I saw and nothing works. I've been having a heck of a time trying to install things.

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.

Debian :: Would Not Accept Password In Terminal

Feb 12, 2016

I just set up my Debian 8.3.0 Jessie install a couple of days ago. Today I am having a problem carrying out a command in terminal. All I want to do at the moment is make sure my firewall is active. I log in and out of my computer using the password that I set when I originally installed Debian, and I use the same password in the package updater, but today it would not accept that password in terminal. Here is what I am seeing;

rocky@debian:~$ sudo ufw-enable
[sudo] password for rocky:
rocky is not in the sudoers file. This incident will be reported.
rocky@debian:~$ sudo ufw-enable
[sudo] password for rocky:

CentOS 5 :: LUKS Won't Accept Password?

Mar 16, 2010

I have recently installed CentOS 5.4. I went ahead and enabled encryption for the root partition. everything was fine for the first few days, but today it started refusing my password on boot. The weird thing is after refusing the password several times it accepted it once, then when I rebooted to test refused the password it had accepted moments earlier. I guessed the password file got corrupt or something so I did a clean install. During the install it asked for the password to access the partition and accepted (!) the password. I went ahead and deleted the old partition and reinstalled from scratch just to be sure. And I made extra certain I put in the correct password with no fumble fingers. Sure enough the blasted thing refuses the password I just created during boot. However, if I input the password into the setup it accepts it. What the hell is going on here?

Ubuntu Installation :: Installed 10.10 64 Bit; Does Not Accept Administrator Password?

Oct 10, 2010

I had 9.04 64-bit with / and /home in separate partitions. Today I used 10.10 alternate install to install a command line system. Then installed gnome-core, synaptic, gparted, and a few other things. Now when I go to System > Administration > Synaptic Package Manager or to Gparted, I am asked for the "administrator password". I type in my password, but it is not accepted. However, from a terminal I can "sudo synaptic", give my password, and install whatever I want.

Debian :: New Install Won't Accept Username & Password?

Jun 20, 2010

I have just completed a debian netinstall, but am stuck at the "Welcome" screen. Though I took careful notes during the install re the "user account" (did not use my name as my purpose is to get the pc running and give it away) and "user password," it will not accept them. I would like to change or edit both (debian isn't telling me which is incorrect). How can this be done?

Also, this is looking for the "user account" - not the root info, right?

If I am forced to reinstall the OS, will I have to go through the entire process (partitions and all)?

OpenSUSE :: YAST Does Not Accept Root Password?

Oct 24, 2010

Just installed SUSE11.3 and everything was ok until did initial online update. Following update, YAST will not accept root password when launched from KDE (have not tried other window managers). Dialog box is presented to enter root password. It reports back "invalid root password". But I can run yast or yast2 from command line (as root) and that seems to come up, but not all items seem to work.

I can log in as root with no problem. Only YAST will not accept my password. I'm running KDE on a Dell D610. Ran SUSE 11.0 for several years, absolutely no problem.
