by it clown 02 Mar '05

02 Mar '05

Hi All, I have joined suse 9.1 to a w2k domain. When i want to test squid with ntlm_auth by doing the following: ntlm_auth --helper-protocol=squid-2.5-basic --domain=mydomain --username=username --password=password nothing happens but when i test it like the following: ntlm_auth --domain=mydomain --username=username --password=password I get OK. Why do i not get an OK with the squid helper? How can i check if the following is enable with smb: --enable-auth="ntlm,basic" --enable-external-acl-helpers="wbinfo_group" I used yast to install smb and squid. Thanks Regards ______________________________________________________________ http://www.webmail.co.za the South African FREE email service

sulog and restrictions
by Stephen Hughes 02 Mar '05

02 Mar '05

Hi Group Does anybody know how I can go about restricting logins (telnet) for other users besides the root user? I'm looking to restrict my dba's from logging in directly to the oracle account and would rather have them su to the oracle account from their individual logins. Also, is there a way I can log the "su" attempts made on my servers, bypassing the messages log?

Cant get through D-link wireless router
by Richard 02 Mar '05

02 Mar '05

I'm running Su'SE 9.2 with a D-Link dwg-650 pcmcia wireless. It configures fine with Yast. When I get it going it goes out to a D-Link WiFi router Model DI-624 and gets an IP faithfully. I can ping the router and run the router utility from my laptop, yet I cannot get anything through the router until I power it down and repower it. Then all works fine. By cannot get anything through, I mean I cannot ping the internet connection or anything on the internet. The error message says no connection. If I run a cable to the router, I can get an ip and go onto the net without fail. Running windows I can get the ip and go onto the net without having to unplug the router. It appears the wireless router firewall is set up to allow all on the lan to go to the net. Any ideas? TIA Richard

Sound Card Problems
by bucciarelli＠to.astro.it 02 Mar '05

02 Mar '05

I'm using Suse Linux Professional 9.1 on HP D530 Desktop, and I cannot hear any sound. Everything seems OK from the point of view of the hardware; in fact, I tried installing Windows OS on a disk partition of my PC and in this case the sound works fine. I suspect there is a sort of incompatibility between the sound card and the Linux OS, but looking at YAST, the hardware seems correctly recognized and configured. However, if I try to reproduce a sound, even the bell sound, I don't get any error message, but no sound comes out. The name of my integrated sound card are: 82801EB/ER (ICH5/ICH5R) My office mate has the same Linux OS on a HP EVO D310 and he has never experienced problems with his sound card, which is a 82801DB (ICH4). Anybody can help? Thanks, Beatrice

Re: [SLE] Can't login as my normal user

Is it possible your Xauthority file is corrupted? startx should generate a new one if it is missing, so... mv -iv ~/.Xauthority Xauthority.OLD startx "man xauth" might give you some other clues.

Linux and Windows XP :-)
by Jerry Feldman 02 Mar '05

02 Mar '05

My system at work is dual booted to SuSE 9.2 Professional and Windows XP. I was sharing the 2 desktop systems over a KVM until a week or so ago when I got a TFT monitor, and gave the KVM to someone else. The Keyboard and Mouse that came with this system are USB, but the old stuff was PS/2. I plugged in the new Monitor, Keyboard and mouse, booted up to SuSE, and everything came up perfectly. :-))))) Then, to test Windows XP, rebooted, the XP boot loader gave me the presentation for normal and safe modes. But, one I came up in the ctrl-alt-delete splash screen, neither the keyboard nor the mouse worked. Maybe the system is telling me not to use XP :-) -- Jerry Feldman <gaf(a)blu.org> Boston Linux and Unix user group http://www.blu.org PGP key id:C5061EA9 PGP Key fingerprint:053C 73EC 3AC1 5C44 3E14 9245 FB00 3ED5 C506 1EA9
