Ubuntu Servers :: 10.10 - Cannot Save Multiple Users And Passwords With Htdigest

Dec 12, 2010

On other editions of ubuntu server I had no problem saving multiple users and passwords with htdigest but now it seems it is only possible to save one user and password.
Code:
sudo htdigest -c /etc/apache2/passwords directory user
When I add a second username and password for the same directory it overwrites the first.

Ubuntu Servers :: "force" Users To Save To A File Server?

Apr 18, 2011

If there are users in a network who have desktop Linux (any variety), is there a way to configure their computers to "require" them to save documents to the network? Like for example, redirecting their /Home folders to a network file server or not allowing them to save files to their local hard drives?

Ubuntu :: How To *export* Passwords From Firefox For Save Storage

Jun 24, 2010

How do I, the rightful creater and owner of the Firefox master-password, convince Firefox to release my passwords to me? I'm aware that Firefox stores website-passwords in the personal information manager, and that I am able to view these after unlocking them with the master-password and export them with the profile info export function. However, I collect all my passwords and encrypt them with a very strong key for storage outside my PC.

Networking :: Networkmanager Does Not Save Wireless Passwords

Jul 11, 2011

I am using gnome's nm-applet as the client for NetworkManager. However, it seems that nm-applet will not save network passwords, so I have to retype the password on each connection. I already have gnome-keyring installed, so I'm not sure what the issue could be. I read online somewhere that secrets are retrieved through polkit or something, but I am completely unfamiliar with polkit and such.

Software :: Wanting Firefox To Save Passwords Again?

Sep 14, 2009

Whenever I log into a site for the first time I always tell Firefox to save my passwordThis is very convenient. Along time ago, however, when I first started using this feature I sometimes clicked "Never save the password for this site" and consequently some of the sites which I most frequently visit still need me to manually input the password.How can I tell Firefox I want it to save the passwords for these sites now? I cleared everything in the "Preferences >> Security >> Exceptions" menu but that did not fix the problem. I don't want to just delete my profile because I have about a years worth of passwords and bookmarks and whatnot that I don't want to redo.

Ubuntu :: 3 Users Only Want Passwords For 2?

Mar 2, 2010

I am trying to set up Ubuntu like I had on my windows PC. I have my account, my wifes account and my kids account. I want passwords set for both myself and my wife but I don't want the kids to be required to have a password to log in. When setting up Ubuntu, it looks like it was all or none. I have dabbled with Linux off and on for years and am sure there is a way to set this up but I have no idea how.

Ubuntu Installation :: Restore Users & Passwords?

May 4, 2011

I upgraded from 10.10 to 11.04 (32 bit) with a clean install as the "upgrade" option in update manager failed. I'm setting up the system again and want to restore the backup I took prior to upgrading, however due to the upgrade I don't want to just re install everything. The following have been backed up

/etc
/home
/usr/local
/var

Now there are various things that are different such as firefox 3.x has become firefox 4 Open office is gone, long live LibreOffice, my proprietary Nvidia drivers don't seem to be trusted yet, all the repositories will be different etc. I will re install all the applications fresh from the software centre, but I would like to restore all the users and passwords and their home directories,

So I don't I want to restore /etc or /usr/local en masse. I guess /var is not worth restoring either /home gets me their files but how do I restore the users and passwords? (there are about 8 registered users some of whom have different privileges) and the user ID need to be the same as they all access a NAS through nfs)

General :: Viewing Counts Of Old Passwords Associated With Users

Aug 19, 2010

I'm configuring a CentOS 5.4 workstation. I have been able to apply most of the security that is required. I have met all but one logging requirement. How do you get the count of old passwords associated with users? I don't need to see their passwords just how many times they have changed them. I have set remember to 24 in the /etc/pam.d/system-auth file. I don't know where the file is that contains this information.

Security :: Console Users Logging In Without Passwords?

Jul 19, 2010

Sitting at the console, I log in with any user name and NO PASSWORD IS REQUESTED. I get logged in automatically without entering the user's password.

I did:
passwd joeuser

To change his password and still he goes right in without being asked for a password!

Possibly related- 10 days ago, my smtp server was breached as a spam relay. The username they cracked was deleted. I added fail2ban for postfix. The logs show no further intrusion.

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?

Security :: Permitting Users To Ssh With Out Typing Their Passwords Via Kerberos?

May 24, 2010

Is there a way to use kerberos (or baring that a trusted CA) to allow users to ssh across machines in an environment isntead of having to manage the hash keys per user/server? I'm using kerberos+ldap to log folks in and get their settings but I'd like to take it a step further. I've been reading a lot but still can't quite get it all to come together.

Do I need to create a SPN for each host to do this? Sorry if I am asking a dumb question, I am returning to the *nix fold after a decade+ in the Microsoft world, be gentle with me.

Server :: Program For Squid To Allow Users Change Passwords

Jan 8, 2011

I am using squid + dansguardian for web and content filtering. And it is working fine. I am forcing users to use proxy through browser configuration. Now I am planning to add another layer to controlling access using ncsa_auth program. I know it is not the most secured but I am fine with it. Plain passwords are fine with me.

I will be giving users some default passwords but I want some program for allowing users to change the passwords for the respective users if they want. Is there any perl script or something web based for the purpose that anyone is using or know of?

Programming :: Shutdown Multiple Computers Via SSH (Try Different Passwords)

Oct 1, 2010

I'm trying to write a mass reboot script in the event of a power outage (servers go to UPS for some 15 minutes or so and shutdown uncleanly). What I have is a set of 6 common passwords which will be prompted for per ssh connection, is there any way I can cycle through this password list

Code:
#below is an example of how this is constructed, IP's are used instead of hostnames due to the possibility of a DNS server being offline.
SERVERSRM1="1 2 3"
SERVERSRM2="110 120 130"
For i in $SERVERSRM1; do ssh -n root@192.168.0.$i "hostname && shutdown -y -i5 -g0"; done;'
for i in $SERVERSRM2; do ssh -n root@192.168.0.$i "hostname && shutdown -y -i5 -g0"; done;'
Each time the code is executed I'm prompted for a password (it's always one of 6 passwords). It would be quicker to have the passwords be cycled through.

I realise this is basic code at the moment but it will eventually allow for a specific set of computers to be shut down based on what power supply they're using. Authorized keys not really an option given the scale of computers (some 300 or so).

OpenSUSE Install :: User Locked Out After Multiple Passwords?

Dec 5, 2009

I am having a problem with some users who get locked out after more than 3 failed attempts at login. This is exactly what I want to see - they will eventually remember those stronger passwords (maybe?) - but how do I re-enable their access? I haven't tried this on a live box but I can easily recreate the situation via vnc to the server in question and I assume the result would be the same. I like the policy that leads to this but I do need to let them back in - eventually. Where is the blacklist kept and how do I edit/reset it?

Is it possible to have more than one password simultaneously attached to a login account in Linux?I'd like to be able to add a temporarily-authorized user to an account on my web server, but don't want to have to change the login afterwards.Even cooler would be if this could be done with a timer of some kind so the temporary password would auto-die after, say, 24 hours.

Security :: Centralize Users And Passwords And Also Create Controls For User Access To Some Equipment?

May 12, 2011

I'm planning to centralize users and passwords and also create controls for user access to some equipment, for example, Linux Servers, Switches, routers and firewalls. In case of failure of the link between the ACS and AD or equipment to the ACS, this device would use local username and password.

At the moment, my AD structure is a Microsoft, Cisco ACS servers and Linux Standalone. I wish that both linuxs servers and network equipment were authorized by Cisco ACS on the accounts that are in Microsoft AD.

The configuration of the Cisco ACS to use the AD is done and no problems, the network equipment is OK too, but am having difficulties configuring the server for this solution.

Software :: Import Windows Users / Passwords Into Openldap Server - Ldap Migrate Migration?

Nov 18, 2009

I am looking for ideas for getting windows users into an ldap server. I am currently running a Linux server for my department and need to create an LDAP server which mirrors the username/password information for all of us as they are stored in the windows server here. I have the openldap server up and running on Ubuntu 8.04 and it works great; I now need to find some way to import user info into this from windows. I've seen discussions of using ldifde.exe to export the AD users into an ldif file. Is this the simplest way to go about it?

Our Linux server is currently providing us with much needed services using apache, and apache is authenticating using LDAP to our windows server (Using our windows username / password is required functionality). This windows server has some problem which causes it to delay for inordinate amounts of time between authentication requests and responses. The situation is such that this problem will not be addressed by IT staff. However, I have control over the Linux server so I am looking to just mirror the windows server on an LDAP server of my own. I could get away with updating the passwords in the Linux server.

Ubuntu Installation :: Multiple Admin Passwords - Opration Requires Root - Administrative - Privileges

Jan 10, 2011

I downloaded a driver for my printer today and I opened it in the terminal. Then a window popped up saying "This opporation requires root (administrative) privileges. Please enter the administrative password below:" I typed in the same password that I use when authorizing the installation of programs from the Ubuntu Software Center and I tried it multiple times. Each time, it rejects the password. I even tried downloading something else from the software center, just to make sure the password was correct, but the system had no problem with the password when downloading from the software center. So, is my software center password different from my administrator password?
