Hello, This patch fix order of checking password in systems that contains /etc/shadow file (Linux for example). The order is exactly like in linux-shadow-password package. First is checked /etc/passwd but if password field contains "x" then password is read from /etc/shadow instead.

We've been running Samba2.2.x and relying on the underlying Solaris user authentication (/etc/passwd /etc/shadow). For historical reasons, we've allowed plaintext passwords. Now as we've upgraded to Samba 3.0.3. we would like to continue this method of authentication (at least until we can implement ldap). The docs are sketchy at best (you can use plaintext authentication, etc.), but

Fellow list members, I recently tried to add a user to a little used server that hadn't see a change in users for quite a while. When I use system-config-users I get an error alert that says - The user database cannot be read. This problem is most likely caused by a mismatch in /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow. The program will exit now. I awk'ed out the user ID's and ran diff.

Hello. I've been attempting to locate information on how to actually create the encrypted passwords for a new user in /etc/imap.passwd file. Im really going into this blindly, not having ever used dovecot before, and really just need to be pointed to any existing resources on this topic. This is a setup of dovecot (w/ sendmail,squirrelmail) on FC2. I've got one successful auth so far

Hello, Is this the proper place to suggest an enhancement for the stock dovecot package ? The enhancement would be the following: For the time being, the dovecotpw utility offers a standardised way to interactively encode a user password in a certain scheme, say: dovecotpw -s CRYPT Enter new passord: Re-enter new password: etc. Given a *valid* /etc/imap.passwd file (passwd-file

hey friends, I am running my company's mail server on FC3 which comprises of Postfix + Dovecot + MailScanner + Clamav + Squirrelmail + MailWatch + Spamassassin. I am using Dovecot 0.99.13-3 version on FC3 and I want to implement Quota limits for the users. I am using userdatabase as /etc/passwd file (auth_userdb = passwd ) and password database as pam(auth_passdb = pam) for dovecot. I read

Hello Why is it necessary to specify encrypt passwords = no to make Samba server start using solely /etc/passwd? Isn't it possible to tell Samba server that on the way between a client and the server, the passwords sould be encrypted, and after decryption, they will be checked against /etc/passwd and not smbpasswd, tdb or whatever backend?

Hello All, I''m new to puppet, and I''d like to know: Is there a formal best practices guide for syncing { /etc/passwd, shadow, group, hosts} across clients from the master? For instance; is it a better practice to make a hard link to these files and share the link, as opposed to just sharing the files directly via a target in fileserver.conf? Inquiring minds want to know...

You appear to be trying to write C code in R. Don't do this. If you can trade off space for efficiency, the calculation can be easily vectorized (assuming I correctly understand what you want to do, of course). set.seed(135) ## for reproducibility D1<-data.frame(x=1:5,y=6:10,z=rnorm(5)) D2<-data.frame(x=19:30,y=41:52,z=rnorm(12)) D.all <-merge(D1,D2, by.x=NULL,by.y=NULL) ##

Hello list members, Today I noticed on http://wiki.rubyonrails.com/rails/pages/WorkingProfessionallyWithRails that there were a ton of spam links in the source code that I couldn''t see on the page itself. Upon careful examination I found the links to be hidden: I am posting the content here for reference and to show patterns of spam: <u

Hey, I'm trying to use the mysql plugin with Samba 3.0.2 and am running into problems with the password storing aspect of the equation. Specifically, here is how I have the smb.conf file setup: [global] workgroup = SRS netbios name = DustPuppy passdb backend = mysql:mysql mysql:mysql host = localhost mysql:mysql user = samba

I just solved the problem I reported previously with Windows XP not working correctly with security = user. Apparently, Windows XP truncates passwords to 8 characters in length before sending them off to the server. I don't think this happened with previous versions of windows, but I don't have any older versions to check this out. Josh ===== -- --
