Debian Configuration :: Migrate The Users Without Resetting Their Passwords?

Aug 13, 2010

I have an old server running CentOS 5. The encription method used was the default MD5 for the shadow file. I would like to migrate the server to Debian Squeeze which uses SHA512. I have already copied the passwd, group and shadow file with the user accounts information but the Debian machine doesn't let the users login. I have already looked in the pam files to make it accept the MD5 encryption without any luck. how can i migrate the users without resetting their passwords?

Debian Configuration :: Root Doesn't Have Permission To Change Passwords

Jun 19, 2014

I installed Debian Kit on my Asus Nexus 7 tablet, and after following the installation tutorial I got it running except for I'm stuck on the step to create a new user. (btw link: [URL] .... )

Here's how it went (I can't copy&paste from my tablet so I have to type out everything...):

Code: Select allroot@android-6c40984c21c156ae:/# adduser paul374
Adding user `paul374' ...
Adding new group `paul374' (5000) ...
Adding new user `paul374' (5000) with group `paul374' ...
Creating home directory `/home/paul374' ...

[Code] ....

So since I read somewhere that selinux had some permission problem, so I did a few chcons:

Code: Select allchcon --user=u --role=r --type=init --range=s0 /etc/passwd
chcon --user=u --role=r --type=init --range=s0 /etc/shadow
chcon --user=u --role=r --type=init --range=s0 /etc/gshadow

And it did take effect:

Code: Select allroot@android-6c40984c21c156ae:/# ls -Z | grep passwd
            u:r:init:s0 passwd
u:object_r:unlabeled:s0 passwd-
root@android-6c40984c21c156ae:/# ls -Z | grep shadow
            u:r:init:s0 gshadow
u:object_r:unlabeled:s0 gshadow-
            u:r:init:s0 shadow
u:object_r:unlabeled:s0 shadow-

...but still same thing as what happened in the beginning...

Anyway my goal is to create and be able to log in to another user so that I'm not stuck running root all the time. (Which, as we all know, is a bad idea.)

If there's a way to manually create the user by editing a few files, and root still won't be able to change passwords, I'm fine with that, as long as I have another user. Whatever it takes to just get a non-root user log-in-able...

I forgot to mention that since this is the Asus Nexus 7, there is no removable media, so chrooting from another Linux machine isn't an option, and neither is removing an SD card to use a LiveCD on it.

Debian Configuration :: Restore From Hibernate Fails From Time To Time?

Apr 28, 2011

I have a Insprion 14R (N4010) and when I hibernate it will usually restore without a problem, but maybe 15% of the time it will reboot while loading. I would like to figure why, since I'd rather not lose anything... My swap space is 5.9GB, I have 4GB RAM (video uses 1gb, so I have 3gb usable)

lspci says

00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corporation Core Processor DRAM Controller (rev 18)
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Core Processor Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 18)
00:16.0 Communication controller: Intel Corporation 5 Series/3400 Series Chipset HECI Controller (rev 06)

[code]....

I do have the hibernate package installed...

Debian Configuration :: Reboot Both The Server And The Client Machines Every Time Change The SAMBA Configuration?

Apr 5, 2010

I am *finally* getting around to rebuilding my file-sharing computer. I'll be sharing files with both Linux and Windoze machines. It's a home network, so there's nothing fancy needed. I know I have to tweak my smb.conf file until I'm satisfied with the features and security. I'm using SWAT and I'm starting with a bare-bones conf file. It's not secure but I can see the server and selected files/directories from my other Linux box.

My really dumb question is, do I have to reboot both the server and the client machines every time I change the SAMBA configuration? I thought I just had to stop and restart the SAMBA service in the SWAT software - but then the server disappears from my client. It looks like I need to reboot both machines for the client to see the server.

Debian Configuration :: DM Crypt With DSA Or One-time Pad?

Nov 20, 2010

The in build cipher algorithms that are in the kernel are not critically secured, the best, I think, supports 384 bit encryption.

So I was looking forward towards stuff like DSA or very preferably OTP cipher with like... 8192 bit encryption using DM, I know it sounds insane, but so is the data. I want it to be uncrackable for the fastest supercomputer combined till 2070.

Security :: Passwords In Configuration Files

Aug 31, 2010

Lately I adapted my /etc/fstab to mount samba shared network drives. I had to put the password in the configuration file in order to log in automatically. Isn't there another way? It feels a little akward to me to put passwords in a plain text-file.

Debian Configuration :: LVM Partitions Not Getting Mounted At Boot Time

Apr 18, 2010

I have two partitions in LVM. They are added in /etc/fstab to mount automatically. But, they are not working. The process to mount partitions seems to be happening before the service /etc/init.d/lvm2 is started. I can get it mounted using "mount -a" command, but not during the boot time. What should I do get it automatically mounted on every boot?

Debian Configuration :: Resolvconf - Does Not Start At Boot Time

Debian Configuration :: Mount Smbshare At Boot Time?

Oct 13, 2010

A windows server named SRV is sharing folders for each users in /share/From a Debian computer on network logged with the user session "foo" I can mount the remote directory /share/foo with:smbmount //SRV/share/$LOGNAME /remote_directorythen the prompt ask me for password and when I have gave it the remote directory is mounted correctly.Now I would like to make this at boot time.If I put the same command in the .bashrc, when I boot, the remote directory is not mounted when the session is opened but then if I open a console, it ask me for password and the directory is mounted.This way is not convenient and it would be better if the directory is mounted when the user open his session and using the same password.The point is that every user should have a his own remote directory mounted when the session is opened.

Debian Configuration :: Create A Ramdisk At Boot Time?

Jun 1, 2011

On Debian Etch I used to understand how to change boot kernel parameters with Grub. You could just edit menu.lst.

With the newer Grub in Squeeze I am without a clue! I want to set up a ramdisk, say 128 Megs in size, and add that to my boot parameters so that it is created every time the machine starts. Do I set something in /etc/default/grub ?

Debian Configuration :: Disabling Boot-time Messages?

Jul 17, 2011

I'm trying to stop all boot time messages from appearing -- basically I'd like to have a simple blank screen from grub to xdm.

I tried everything -- used the "quiet" option in grub's config, added dmesg -n 1 to rc.local, changed console=ttySx, set kernel.printk in sysctl.conf to 4 1 1 7, and even eradicated rsyslogd altogether... to no avail. I still see all sorts of messages on my screen.

It is laptop configuration, no NFS server(?) lenny with few installs from backports (open office and .30 kernel - for Intel 5300) vmwware (7), as well firestarter firewall

Debian Configuration :: CIFS Mount At Boot Time Fail?

Nov 20, 2010

Running Debian stable. I added the following command to rc.local and made it executable:mount -t cifs -o username=ted,password=computer,uid=mooreted,gid=users "//192.168.1.121/Storage Volume" /mnt/vortexAfter rebooting dmesg throws the following error:

[ 21.400697] CIFS VFS: Error connecting to IPv4 socket. Aborting operation
[ 21.400708] CIFS VFS: cifs_mount failed w/return code = -101

However, if I run the command as root after the system boots it works fine.Been using this method on other distros for over a year. No idea what the problem is.

How do I get it to start automatically at boot time?
