View 14 Replies View RelatedUbuntu :: Change Root Password - Typing A Password, No Characters Show Up?
Mar 9, 2010I'm really new to Linux so this will probably sound like a pretty naive question to most users, but how do you change the root password?To install Java, I have to type # su into Terminal,which then asks for the password.What's weird is that when I start typing a password, no characters show up. I don't know if this is supposed to happen or not.I've found a bunch of different sites on the Internet that explain how to change the root password, but none of them seem to work for my specific work station.
I've got Ubuntu 9.10 64 bit. In the GRUB boot menu, I can choose to boot normal or in recovery mode (I'm led to believe older versions don't have this option).I've tried typing # sudo passwrd into Terminal, but I already have a root password set up apparently, so I can't change it there.
Ubuntu Servers :: Login With The Same Username And Password - Invalid Login
Apr 18, 2011I have a problem regarding the ubuntu enterprise cloud. I have installed CC,CLC,SC,NC and a client and logged into thje user interface using my browser for the first time with bith username and passwd as admin and downloaded the credentials.But now as I try to login with the same username and passwd, it says that its an invalid login. I understand we have to change the password on the first login but i don't remember doing the same.
I tried recover password option and gave the user name as admin and email address as my gmail id. It says that I have to follow the instructions sent to the mail, but there is no mail sent I have done it like 5 or 6 times with different mail ids

View 7 Replies View RelatedUbuntu :: Run A Script That Needs Root Privileges Without Typing In The Password?
Mar 25, 2011I'm trying to run a script that needs root privileges without typing in the password. I want to copy a file from my documents folder into /etc/X11 to overwrite my xorg.conf. I do this because I will have my computer switch from my monitors to my TV when I watch a movie. But I'd like to be able to make it a clickable icon so I don't have to type in cp /... /etc/...
This is my "script"
Code:
sudo cp /home/nertskull/Documents/xorg.conf_TV /etc/X11/xorg.conf
Then I read a lot of places that said to add this to the sudoers file (sudo visudo)
Code:
nertskull ALL = NOPASSWD: /home/nertskull/Documents/switch_TV.sh
I've done all that, and I still get asked for my password when I run that file.
nertskull ALL = ...
%nertskull ALL = ...
%users ALL = ...
%admin ALL = ...
I'm sure it's something simple I'm overlooking, but I've read 5 different threads on this, and I can't find anything they did that I'm not doing. Also, here is my sudoers file, because I know location within the file matters. But what I read said I should be putting my stuff at the end.
Code:
# /etc/sudoers
#
# This file MUST be edited with the 'visudo' command as root.
#
# See the man page for details on how to write a sudoers file.

OpenSUSE Network :: SSH Client Hangs After Typing Password
Jan 5, 2011After connecting to any host, the openssh client hangs after I type the password. The strange part is, it only hangs if when I use the wlan card. If I connect my phone to the computer and uses it to connect to my server, it works 100%.
If I use any other computer at the wireless network, it works 100%
If I use putty on the same machine, it works 100%
It is only a problem when I use the build-in wireless card, under openSuSE 11.3, on my Lenovo L512. (note that everything besides ssh works completely).

Ubuntu :: Connecting To Remote Servers By Only Typing SSH User@ip
Jun 4, 2010I manage a few Linux servers and I need a fast way to connect to these servers instead of having to enter the root password every time.
Is there anyway to save the passwords/keys and connect to the servers by simply typing: SSH user@ip
Or even something easier without typing the server IP like I had Putty in Windows. I know I can still use Putty but I want to use a better SSH client, like GNOME Terminal.

View 3 Replies View RelatedUbuntu :: Sudo And Login Password Recognized - Password Box Does Not Like
Apr 27, 2010I needed to use Synaptic Package Manager to install an app, but the dialog box ("enter the Administrative Password") that pops up before you can use Synaptic doesn't recognize my password ("incorrect password). I tried typing it into a text editor and it's spelled right, caps lock not turned on or anything.
In Terminal, sudo recognizes it, and it is recognized when I log into Ubuntu. I'm the sole user, I have admin privileges, I've been doing admin things.
I just now did System > Administration > Users and Groups and got a dialog box saying
"Failed to contact configuration server; some possible causes are that you need to enable TCP/IP networking for ORBit, or you have stale NFS locks due to a system crash. See [URL] for information. (Details - 1: Server ping error: IDLmg.org/CORBA/COMM_FAILURE:1.0)"
Moving past that, I changed my user password, and Ubuntu authenticated it.
How do you launch Synaptic Package Manager from the command line?

Ubuntu :: Login - Enter My Password To Login The Screen Becomes Black And Return Me Again
Apr 15, 2011I just bought this desktop from my friend and it runs win 7 and ubuntu 10.04. it worked very well the first two days until I changed the hostname of the system.
I did like: hostname myNewName
And everything worked fine. The problem now is when I start ubuntu and and reach username and password screen , I enter my password to login the screen becomes black and return me again to the screen where I put my password again. If I entered wrong password , the system message stating wrong password. On the other hand, when I try to run ubuntu from live-cd I can login easily and access my account.
My friend told me he removed Naultius package and reinstall it for some reason before he gave it to me. Note windows 7 is working properly.
