Fedora :: 15 Machine Accounts Show At Login?
Jun 15, 2011I recently upgraded my Fedora server from 13 -> 15 and imported all the linux and samba accounts from the old setup. I have the machine operating as a domain server for my network using samba and tbm files for storing user info for samba. I now have all the machine accounts (machine$) show up at the login screen after startup as well as the user accounts. How can I hide these machine accounts like before?

View 8 Replies View RelatedSecurity :: Lock User Accounts After Too Many Login Failures?
Jun 8, 2010I am trying to disable accounts after 5 unsuccessful login attempts. I am following the guidelines in this article:
[URL]
This is on an Oracle Enterprise 5.4 box, which is essentially RHEL 5.4 Here is what my /etc/pam.d/system-auth looks like:
--------
#%PAM-1.0
# This file is auto-generated.
# User changes will be destroyed the next time authconfig is run.
[code]....
Unfortunately, the account does not seem to be locked or disabled. As root, runninng 'su test2 -c <some-command>' always sucessfully runs <some-command>, and leaves the failed attempt count at 6. /etc/shadow does not have an * or ! anywhere in the encrypted password for the 'test1' user.
What am I doing wrong? I thought that with the max attempts set to 0 in faillog, that the deny= parameter would be used. I thought I should be using su <user> -c <command> from the root account to test if the disable feature is working.

Jan 30, 2011I was logged in, but had not used the computer for about 48 hours. When I 'woke' the system, I could see that Thunderbird and Firefox were active, just as I had left them. I moved the mouse, the screen went black and the mouse pointer was visible (and could move). The system stayed like this for about 2 minutes, then wend down completely. I cut power, booted and got the login screen. Each time I put in my password, it looks as if it is loading but then just goes right back to the login screen. I have no problem logging in as root.

Jun 4, 2010I am not sure if anyone here has any experience with Kaspersky Anti-Virus for Linux but my problem relates to that product.
I am running 11.2 openSUSE and after installing the latest version of the Kaspersky product in question, I went ahead and restarted the machine. At the logon screen, when clicking my user name to log in, the password box would not display.
I tried clicking on the other option and trying it that way and after putting my name in the username box, the machine just started thinking and thinking and nothing happens.
I also tried logging in through terminal service but it would not recognize my password to be correct.
I really need to log into my username since I have important files on that Linux partition. I tried mounting this partition in Windows since I have a dual boot setup but I can only view the folders of the partition and not the contents.
OpenSUSE Install :: Login Fails For Normal User In 11.3 - KDE4
Oct 4, 2010I can't log into my normal user account at bootup; it just bounces back to the login screen.
However, I can log into the user's terminal window from the root account.
I've tried deleting and re-creating the user, but to no avail.
Is there some special file that I could delete before re-creating the user?
The one that holds the (corrupted) authentication data, perhaps?

Ubuntu :: Show Password Entry Field For Default User In FIRST Login Screen?
Jun 11, 2010When I boot Ubuntu 10.04 then at first the login screen appears with the main user
"Peter"
and
"other..."
In 99% of the cases I use "Peter" and have explicitely to click on Peter. Only then the password entry field appears and I can enter it.
This is somehow user unfriendly. Can I define somehow a default user (here: Peter) and show immediately the password entry field (and place the cursor inside)?
OpenSUSE Install :: When Edit My User-name And Password The System Said That Login Is Incorrect
Oct 16, 2010Today I have installed Linux SUSE 11.2 . At installation, I was asked for user-name and password. I edit this correctly.
At the end of the installation, the system reboots until the mask 'user name' and 'password' will be displayed. When I edit my user-name and the password the system said, that the login is not correct.
First, I think, I have forgetten my password an do a new installation of Linus SUSE 11.2 . Whatever, the same problem ist still there.
OpenSUSE Install :: Normal User Cannot Login - Screen Blinks - A Black Page Appears
Jun 27, 2010I can't log into my normal user account anymore, though I can log in with root without any problem. When I enter my normal user name and password, the screen blinks, a black page appears and after a couple of seconds I get the login screen again. I deleted /tmp files but no changes. I tried to login using command mode. So I hit Ctrl-Alt-F1 and log into root in command mode, then ran init3, then switched user to my normal user and ran startx. It worked and I logged into my normal account, but I can not do this process every time. So, what is the problem? How can I solve this problem? I used to work with my normal user flawlessly. I installed a bunch of software and also copied some folders to my home directory, but I don't know whether these activities caused the problem or not. I'm using KDE4 under openSUSE 11.2.

Jul 18, 2011I'm trying to setup a LDAP server and it seems to have all gone pretty well. I set it so that users that type their passwords wrong 5 times are locked out for 20 minutes. That works fine, but if I want to log on as an admin and unlock their account before that 20 minutes is up it isn't working.Normally, (authenticating locally)
Code:
passwd -u blank888
works and does what I want it to. If I want passwd to recognize the LDAP server I use
Code:
passwd -D cn=Administrator,dc=example,dc=com -u blank888
When I run that, it always asks for the admin password like it should, but then will only work on some accounts and not others. Mainly I've seen that it only works on accounts that already had local accounts before connecting to the LDAP server.If I run a passwd -Sa command I will get something like:
blank888 LK 07/18/2011 0 999 7 -1
blank888 LK 07/18/2011 0 999 7 -1
test LK
blank888 already had an account on the machine, but also had a LDAP account along with test. So blank888 is showing twice because he has both LDAP and local accounts, whereas test only has a LDAP account. So now if they both get locked out passwd -D $adminDN -u $account will work for blank888 but not test. Then the results of a passwd -Sa would be:
blank888 PS 07/18/2011 0 999 7 -1
blank888 PS 07/18/2011 0 999 7 -1
test LK
I need to be able to unlock test using passwd. The LDAP server is running 11.2, and the hosts are running various Linux distros, and XP.Can anything think of a way to fix this without removing the LDAP server, adding local accounts for everyone, and then putting the LDAP server back on?
