8 character password limit for root on 7x10

Hi,
is there any good reason why the Amber Road/Open Storage Appliances make use of crypt, when other encryption algorithms are available in Open Solaris? This means that only the first 8 characters of any local password are significant.
thanks
iain

To my knowledge, there is no way to do so, short of using external authentication.

Cifs - 5 character password limit

Hi
I've found that if I add a simple password with more than 5 characters in it and I can't authenticate to the netware server via cifs. if the password is shorter than 5 characters it works fine, what am I doing wrong or is this a limitation to the novell cifs protocol?
the servers are netware 6.5 sp8 edir 8.8.5 and the client is a windows xp/windows 2000

Hi Marcel
we are using simple password (we don't hae universal password yet) and the passwords are changed via iManager.

There is certainly no 5 character password limitaton for CIFS. What
kind of passwords are you using for CIFS authentication? Simple password
or universal password? How do you initially set your password?

Is there a character limit for a field in CrystalReports?

Is there a character limit for a field in CrystalReports?
Hello,
I'm trying to display a long text (+100.000 characters) stored in a MySql database in CrystalReports but CR is not showing the complete text. Is this because there is a length limit for fields in CR?
Thanks,
Eddy G.

This is not a great answer, but you can base your report on a SQL Command, then use something like this for the command(MS SQL):
select
case when length(table.field) > 65535
      then substring(table.field,1,65535)
      else table.field end as field_part1,
case when length(table.field) > 65536+65535
      then substring(table.field,65536, 65535)
      when length(table.field) between 65536 and 65536+65535
      then substring(table.field,65536, length(table.field)-65535)
      else '' end as field_part2
from table...
Then in the report, display both fields where you want the BLOB data.

HT201991 What is the character limit for length for video or song reviews?

What is the character limit for length for video or song review?

One other thing I found... It was still doing the spinning clock and locking up, but it took a while after boot for the problem to crop up.
I pulled the media card and found that there was a media sync folder under Blackberry\System that had some files in there that were pretty big. The artwork file was over 150MB and some other files were largish.
I deleted the entire media sync folder and now it seems to be behaving itself. No more spinning clock and it seems to be slowly returning to normal. (Besides all the messages it deleted during the whole process)
If anyone else runs into this I would say you should clean the folder off the media card along with disabling the sync. Seems the BB still reads that folder and processes it if present.

Shaman doesn't ask for root password. But gets root privileges!!

As the title says:
Shaman is launched as a reguler user, never asks for root password, but still i able to install and uninstall packages.
Either something in my system is seriously fucked, or there is a major securiy problem with shaman.
Running openbox, installed shaman while running gnome, if that has anythiung to say. Sudo is not installed.
Output from running shaman in terminal:
[gert@flyktig ~]$ shaman
This process is currently running setuid or setgid.
GTK+ does not allow this therefore Qt cannot use the GTK+ integration.
Try launching your app using 'gksudo', 'kdesudo' or a similar tool.

The point of this thread was that you don't need to enter the root password at all. Not the first time, not ever.
As far as I understand, it is supposed to work like this: When you first use shaman too install anything, it asks for the root password You can tick a "Do not ask me again"-box, so you don't have to enter the password again. If you tick the box and enter the password, shaman add the lines
[auth]
askforpwd=false
to the users shaman.conf-file (~./config/shaman/shaman.conf) The next time shaman is run, it checks the config file, and if the askforpwd value is set to false, it grants itself root privileges (with some nifty setuuid root-thingy, I imagine) This is not the problem - this is the feature.
The bug is this:
the fact that any user can add the lines
[auth]
askforpwd=false
to his own shaman.conf file, without ever entering the root password in shaman. The next time shaman is run, it checks the config file, and if the askforpwd value is set to false, it grants itself root privileges - even though the user has never entered the root password.
This works for any unprivileged user on the system.
If that is indeed a feature intended by any sane person, then I'm Mother Mary. And that can't be, seeing as I don't have breasts.

Character Limit for PDF Bookmark

What is the maximum number of characters that Acrobat allows for a PDF bookmark?

Please post what you find with BB10 re: the hard limit or character limit for Contact Notes. If BB10 simply carries over their existing limits to their new platform (which is very stingy), then this could be a deal breaker. I'd be VERY disappointed but definitely NOT surprised.
By the way, I bought a 3rd party program that syncs BB with Outlook and any other program and it's called "CompanionLink" and it works with BB Desktop seamlessly. You don't even know it's running as you still sync using the native BB desktop. CompanionLink increases the hard limit that BB has set for Contact Notes, Tasks, etc. However, there is still a limit. So instead of getting maybe a 1/4 to 1/2 page of notes (on a word doc) you get almost a full page.

Socket read wait for specific time limit for specific character

Hello again,
Is there a way to have a socket read for a specific time limit for a specific character?
An example would be to wait for 30 seconds for an <ENQ> to be read. Naturally if the time limit is reached a SocketTimeoutException exception would be thrown...
Much thanks.

datagramSocket.setSoTimeout(30000); isn't what you
are looking for?.setSoTimeout() was it... Thanks.

Bad entry in /etc/password for root

I had a feeling that it wasn't a good idea to change the default shell for root. Tried it anyway because I know how to get myself back in on other Unix versions - Well I can't log in as root anymore. Can't even su to root (with or without '-'). b - s from the boot interpreter fails as well.
What I'd like to try now is to boot in single user mode from CD and mount my hard drive and get to the /etc/passwd file.
Does somebody has the exact procedure (or a better one)?
Thanks
Jim Theriault.

This document outlines several methods to boot a Solaris 2.6/7 x86 system up to single-user mode. Most of these methods will work for earlier versions of Solaris x86 as well.
Booting Single-User From CDROM Using the Device Configuration Assistant (DCA) on the Hard Drive:
1). Power the system on.
2). Insert the correct version Solaris Software cdrom for your system.
OPTIONAL: If there is a boot loader in operation on your system, select the Solaris partition as the partition to boot from.
3). After the "Solaris Secondary Boot Loader" and "Running Device Configuration Assistant" messages appear, hit the 'esc' key where prompted to do so.
4). At the "DCA intro screen" hit F2 (F2_Continue).
5). At the "list of devices found" hit F2 (F2_Continue).
6). At the "list of available boot devices" select the CDROM as the device from which to boot a Solaris kernel.
7). At the screen where you are prompted to select 1, 2, or 3 for what type of install you wish to do, enter 'b -s' instead of a number.
This will bring the system up to single-user mode from the cdrom.
Booting Single-User From the CDROM Using the Device Configuration Assistant (DCA) Floppy:
1). With the power on, insert DCA floppy, then the correct version Solaris Software cdrom for your system.
2). At the "DCA intro screen" hit F2 (F2_Continue).
3). At the "list of devices found" hit F2 (F2_Continue).
4). At the "list of available boot devices" select the CDROM as the device from which to boot a Solaris kernel.
5). At the screen where you are prompted to select 1, 2, or 3 for what type of install you wish to do enter 'b -s' instead of a number.
This will bring the system up to single-user mode from the cdrom. It should be noted that even though there are fewer steps, this normally takes much longer than running the DCA from the hard drive.
You can then mount the root partition to /a (a standard mount point on the cdrom) and edit /a/etc/passwd

How to enable password request for restart and shutdown?

Hi,
I'm neither a Linux nor an Arch Linux newbie, but inexperienced regarding this particular issue.
I want to enable password request for restart and shutdown and want to know if I'm mistaken, because trial and error might become to time-consuming while working on a project.
I read https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Al … o_shutdown.
$ ls -hAl /usr/bin/shutdown
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 9 Apr 22 03:02 /usr/bin/shutdown -> systemctl
If I try to run $ shutdown -hP 28 or $ shutdown -c nothings happens, I need to run $ sudo shutdown -hP 28 and $ sudo shutdown -c and type a password. That's the way I want it.
If I e.g. run $ shutdown -r now no password is needed. I want to disable this. It should behave the same way as shutdown -hP/-c behave. I want to type
$ sudo shutdown -r now or $ sudo systemctl reboot etc. and then the password should be required.
$ sudo grep -vn "#" /etc/sudoers | grep [[:blank:]]
72:root ALL=(ALL) ALL
73:rocketmouse ALL=(ALL) ALL
The user "rocketmouse" should have all permissions after typing a password, but not without typing the password.
IIUC what's written at https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Polkit, I need to edit
$ pkaction | grep login
org.freedesktop.accounts.set-login-option
org.freedesktop.login1.attach-device
org.freedesktop.login1.flush-devices
org.freedesktop.login1.hibernate

org.freedesktop.login1.inhibit-handle-suspend-key
org.freedesktop.login1.power-off

org.freedesktop.login1.suspend
org.freedesktop.login1.suspend-ignore-inhibit
org.freedesktop.login1.suspend-multiple-sessions
org.freedesktop.machine1.login
IOW I need to replace every yes and no etc. with auth_admin in $ grep -v lang /usr/share/polkit-1/actions/org.freedesktop.login1.policy.
Am I mistaken?
Regards,
Ralf

You'll need to create a rules file which uses javascript.
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Po … tion_rules
// /etc/polkit-1/rules.d/10-admin-shutdown-reboot.rules
polkit.addRule(function(action, subject) {
if (action.id == "org.freedesktop.login1.power-off" ||
action.id == "org.freedesktop.login1.power-off-ignore-inhibit" ||
/*...SOME_MORE_IDS_HERE...*/
// return polkit.Result.AUTH_ADMIN_KEEP;
return polkit.Result.AUTH_SELF_KEEP;

Assigning Different database governance limit for on demand versus scheduled report in BOEXI release 1

Post Author: Lucia Chan
CA Forum: WebIntelligence Reporting
I'm trying to use connection overrides for universe to assign different CPU processing limit for different group members on the database side. For those with low CPU limit setting, they would need to schedule their reports. I'm trying to find out if there is any way for the database to know if the report is on demand or scheduled. If scheduled, there should be no limit. I did a preliminary test with both on demand and scheduled WebIntelligence reports and both passed the wiReportServer.exe instead of wiJobServer.exe on the database side as AppName. Does anyone have any suggestion to look at that can differentiate the two?
Thank you.

All the mesages are dated "Aug 13" which is quite a few months ago ! I see no recent messages.
You have two CREATE CONTROLFILE calls and one alter database character set INTERNAL_CONVERT ZHS16GBK call.
Were these part of a Database Creation using DBCA (The Database Creation Assistant) ?

Password Problem for some applications:

Password Problem for some applications: I'm unable to download Adobe Reader, Microsoft updates. I have no password set to start the computer, applications such as Pages, Numbers, Keynote require no password for updates.
When I try to update Microsoft or Adobe Reader, first I try with no password, I get a hint and I know exactly what it means, but still unable to download. I don't know enough about passwords as to why some I can download and others I can't. So I don't know what I should read. I'm the only user of this computer and prefer not to have to deal with passwords. I'm using a MacBook Pro, Mac OS 10.9.3

Oh what a tangled web we weave. I read up on keychain and I don't understand what I'm reading. Right now I cannot download my email on my computer, I can access it through the cloud. I'm sure it will be the same for the other iCloud feathers. When I go to preferences and select iCloud when ever I try to sign in I get some dialog box it shows up "A keychain cannot be found to store 1076701306. It doesn't matter whether I reset it or cancel it out iCloud preferences remains grayed out.
In keychain access on the left side under keychains and Read's local item, systems, and systems roots.
When I select local items nothing shows up to the right under the name column even when down under all items is selected nothing shows up. And nothing shows up to the right when under categories I selected the other options password etc. On the other hand when I select under keychains systems, systems roots I do get items to show up on the right side under names under all items, passwords, etc. Where do I start?

How to prompt for root/sudo credentials with Gnome

With other distros like Ubuntu, Gnome prompts for root/sudo authentication whenever applications like Gnome services are run from the Desktop menu. How do you enable that feature in Arch? I have tried different variations of gksude -u root, gksudo -S.... Nothing seems to work.
Thanks

Yeah, that's a known issue with the system tools. No bug report filed for it, though, I don't think. The buttons/services should work properly, though, if you were to try through a regular user and then unlocking after that.
