Adding boot manager entry for multi-user.target in stock configs

How about adding an entry to the stock conifgs of grub and syslinux that append "systemd.unit=multi-user.target" to the kernel parameters and removing the autodetect hook by default?
So then have one boot option for standard hooks without autodetect.
And another which appends "systemd.unit=multi-user.target" (replacing the current fallback)
If never really noticed any difference between using and not using the autodetect hook on any of my 3 computers.
Although I guess just editng the parameters from the boot anger isn't that hard...

Thank you for the reply!
vm-mouse and mesa were necessary for starting the x-server. So startx works now, whereas LightDM still produces an error.
Besides the resolution can´t be adjusted to 1920x1080 in the System Settings. I tried to solve this with the /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-monitor.conf, which I took from the wiki.
Section "Monitor"
Identifier "Monitor0"
EndSection
Section "Device"
Identifier "Device0"
Driver "xf86-video-vmware"
EndSection
Section "Screen"
Identifier "Screen0"
Device "Device0"
Monitor "Monitor0"
DefaultDepth 16
SubSection "Display"
Depth 16
Modes "1920x1080_60.00"
EndSubSection
EndSection
As you can see, I just replaced the lines with comments, because I didn´t know what to do with the others.
Perheaps this is the reason that startx doesn´t work using this configuration ("Failed to load xf86-video-vmware" and "no screens found").

Booting to multi-user.target

Hellow World,
I have a UEFI system, I'm using refind and I don't have any bootloader.
in my efi partition I have /refind_linux.conf with
"Boot with default" "root=PARTUUID=4bd274d7-6c41-42e8-9e00-b18fa8ea88f6 rw rootfstype=ext4 systemd.unit=graphical.target quiet"
"Boot to Terminal" "root=PARTUUID=4bd274d7-6c41-42e8-9e00-b18fa8ea88f6 rw rootfstype=ext4 systemd.unit=multi-user.target"
when I select "Boot to Terminal" the screen gets blank and nothing else happens, however I press the power button (only once) and the computer shut down
any hint? I don't even know where to start debugging

Does it work if you use Grub? These things are very hard to debug, unless it's a regression.

Dubious EFI boot manager entries

Hi all,
After attempting to install Fedora on my computer via Boot Camp I ended up with 4 "windows" volumes in the boot manager, all of which give me the "missing operating system" error. I'm not sure how or why, but I imagine somewhere along the line boot camp added all these entries that pointed to incorrect or nonexistent volumes. I used to have Ubuntu installed in the same place as Fedora but had to install it a number of times before I succeeded. Perhaps that has something to do with the problem.
My question is, is there a way to safely edit the boot manager entries (boot.efi?), or, if not, is there a way short of re-installing OSX that I can reset it somehow?

Hi,
What you are seeing might be a result of the number of UEFI enabled devices (all sources) on your PC. Windows 7 in not a UEFI system.
On my PC, the residual Windows Boot Manager entries from previously installed UEFI enabled devices can be eliminated by resetting the BIOS entries to the defaults.

Hi cclark,
An Adobe PDF Pack subscription is tied to an Adobe ID, so it's a single-user subscription. There's nothing to install; you access the subscription by logging in via a web browser to https://cloud.acrobat.com using your Adobe ID and a password.
I hope that answers your questions.

File Discrepancies for Multi Users

Hi ...
We are running RH7 and RSC3.1 with 3 users - We identified
(only yesterday) that after User 1 had deleted one topic file from
Project Manager and added several others ... User 2 and 3 had
broken links for these topics.
We are able to update existing topics by one user, who check
in, then user 2 and 3 can get the latest version and instantly view
the changes - lovely!! Exactly what we would expect ...
But the same is not occurring when we remove or add entire
topics to both the Project Manager and the TOC ...
User 2 and 3 see the topics in the TOC with the dreaded red
cross through them ... and have to try and locate the file or
restore broken links etc ... to get their view of the project in
sync with User 1. This seems to defeat the whole purpose of being
able to have a multi user authoring environment????
A major concern of this problem appears to be the risk of
undoing each others work by potentially restoring files that
another user intended to remove ...
Is anyone else experiencing similar issues ... we are in a
big organisation and are very restricted in terms of our ability to
access the servers etc ... but I want to know if there is something
we should be checking or doing differently from an application
perspective? Any advice or ideas are greatly appreciated...
Many thanks ...
Frustrated!

Hi Fi@qldpol, and welcome to the board. With your situation,
there are two likely possibilities:
1. Was your project added to source control via RoboHelp, or
was it initially added using RoboSource Control? If it was added
from RoboSource Control, then that is the problem.
2. If #1 is not the problem, then you might be having
problems with some of the users' CPD files. First, have everyone
make backups of the local version of their project (the files
actually residing on their PCs). Then have User 2 and User 3 delete
their copy of the project, and replace it with a copy of User 1's
local files. Before they open the project, they should delete the
cpd and pss files. After they delete those files, they can open the
project as usual and let the cpd file rebuild. We have to do this
every so often with some of our projects to get everyone
synchronized.
Hope that helps.

Jackd for multi user

Does somebody knows how to use jack for several users ?
I'm of course unable to start two jackd under differents uid.
I'm unable to start it as root (and I read it was designed to be run by the user)
I've read in the faq that if a client can not connect it is probably because it has not the same uid than jackd...
So is jackd designed for a single person usage (but I can imagine that, we are in 2008 on linux), or is there another way ?
It appears that I'm not alone at home, and even X allows several instances from different users on the same computer.
Thank you in advance for any tip.

I do want to do this, because we are several people using the computer. A typical scenario is :
- The computer boot.
- MPD is started (uid=mpd), and music is played.
- I log on the computer, and do some work, and give a try to rosegarden, the computer being connected to a synthetizer.
- I'm going to prepare the lunch and my girl open its won X session to play some games (with sound)
- My girlfriend ask for the seat and open a new session to edit some files, or browse internet...
So in the final, there may be 5 differents user needing access to the sound card, even if not producing sound simultaneously, the software client are still connected to the sound daemon.
Until recently I was using pulseaudio, which was very nice, but has the drawback of not being supported by rosegarden and some others sound related software.
Seeing that pulseaudio may be able to play well with jackd, I decided to try it but failed.
When launching jackd as root, it says:
# jackd -R -d alsa
jackd 0.109.2
Copyright 2001-2005 Paul Davis and others.
jackd comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY
This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it
under certain conditions; see the file COPYING for details
JACK compiled with POSIX SHM support.
/dev/shm/jack-0 already exists, but is not a directory!
cannot create server sockets
cannot create engine
I've added the pam_limits.so to /etc/pam.d/su, which worked well for normal users, but does nothing for root.
Anyway, thank you very much for your interest in my problem.

OS X Server 4.0.3 Profile Manager Settings for Mobile Users problems

OS X Yosemite 10.10.2 with Server 4.0.3
We are using Profile Manager to control Settings for Mobile Users, and give homeSync to the users. Our problem is that the exclude / Skip items (Items matching any of the following will not sync" This setting is not working an example. I have put this folder to Skip Items ~/Downloads but the home Sync still Syncing items in the Downloads folder.
I have this problem on all the 3 users/machines on that server. Every client is using os x 10.10.1 og 10.10.2 I have check that the profile from the server is on the client.
Has any a solution to that?
Regards
Brian

I have no solution but have experienced failing sync settings (quite often) in both 10.6 Server and 10.9 + Server 3 (upgraded from 10.6 Server) in the same way as you described, it syncs too much. We have given up on synched home folders and will cut them and use other backup methods since we’re not so dependant on switching between different devices. Our users usually have one computer, one iPhone, one iPad and stay with those until it’s time to exchange them.

Sendmail dependency for multi-user milestone

I am currently setting up a CommuniGate mailserver on a Solaris 10 box . Starting the new service is hampered by sendmail running on the smtp port.
My question regards disabling sendmail services so that CommuniGate can do its own thing. The sendmail service is shown as a dependency for the multi-user milestone:
svcs -l multi-user
fmri         svc:/milestone/multi-user:default
name         Multi-user milestone
enabled      true
state        online
next_state   none

dependency   optional_all/none svc:/system/utmp (online)
dependency   optional_all/none svc:/system/mdmonitor (offline)
dependency   optional_all/none svc:/network/inetd (online)

dependency   optional_all/none svc:/system/system-log (online)
dependency   optional_all/none svc:/network/nfs/client (offline)
dependency   optional_all/none svc:/system/filesystem/autofs (online)
dependency   optional_all/none svc:/network/smtp:sendmail (online)If I disable sendmail, will the multi-user milestone croak on startup? I'm reluctant to just try it, since I'm working on a remote machine without console access in case it does croak.
I've read the sections on dependency groupings (i.e. optional_all/none) but I'm still confused regarding the real links between services.
thanks for any clarification.....docm

If I disable sendmail, will the multi-user milestone
croak on startup? I'm reluctant to just try it, since
I'm working on a remote machine without console
access in case it does croak.No, not at all. There's a difference between administratively disabling a service and having it fail, and for a dependency to be "required" or "optional".
On this machine....
# svcs -l multi-user | grep -v online
fmri svc:/milestone/multi-user:default
name multi-user milestone
enabled true
next_state none
state_time Wed May 25 13:42:14 2005
logfile /var/svc/log/milestone-multi-user:default.log
restarter svc:/system/svc/restarter:default
dependency optional_all/none svc:/platform/i86pc/kdmconfig:default (absent)
dependency optional_all/none svc:/network/smtp:sendmail (disabled)
dependency optional_all/none svc:/system/mdmonitor (disabled)
dependency optional_all/none svc:/application/print/server (disabled)
dependency optional_all/none svc:/network/ntp (disabled)
dependency optional_all/none svc:/system/rcap (disabled)
None of the dependencies are required, so the machine still goes to multi-user...

MACBOOK won't boot - bin/sh for single user message

Powered up my 3 year old Macbook tonight and it won't boot.
After some while it displayed a message saying I had to restart the Macbook which I did.
Now (agian after a long while) it gets to a black screen then displays (twice) Diskos2: OX2103005 (Undefined) or somethimg like that as it's too small to read then
Launched : Can't exec bim/sh for single user : input output error
Any ideas?
Thanks
Dick

Say, that does sound messed up! But so far sounds like a Hard Drive/Software problem.
Boot from the Install CD/DVD, but do not install. Answer ONLY the "What Language" question and wait for the MenuBar to be drawn. Then Choose Disk Utility from the Utilities Menu.
Select your Hard drive and click ( Repair ) Run it again until it comes clean or gets stuck. If stuck, write down the messages and post them here.
It is also a good idea while you are up to do a ( Repair Permissions ). This only checks the things the Installer installed originally, but that is a lot of stuff. \[Once your Mac is up and running off the Hard Drive, you should Repair Permissions again.]
A Mac that cannot boot from an appropriate Installer Disc has a Hardware problem.

Setup ODI for multi user

I am looking for best practice for setting up ODI to be use for multiple users.
I would like to have several users to be able to work on the same package.
Can they use the same work repository? How do I use version control?
Thanks,
Charles

Hi,
I'm at a project with more the 25 ODI developers, 4 ODI Topology "man', 3 Odi Security "man", more then 50 Metadata Profile and 12 Operator Profile.
The Work Repository is the same for all (development context) and the organization is at Project level. It's means each group of Developer that works at a specific department has his own project and have rights only at this Project.
That is my 5° big ODI environment implementation and until now was the best way that I find to work..
Good luck!

Proxy for Multi User calendar shows user's folder tree

By giving the View proxy right to other users, so that they can utilize the Multi User calendar, this apparently also gives the user you've assigned that right to the ability to see the folder tree of all users that have given the View right to the user. In other words, by clicking on the Proxy icon at the top of your folder tree, and picking the user who gave you read rights to their appointments, you can see all their folders. Granted, you will only be able to see appointments within those folders. But, some users may assign descriptive folder names they might otherwise not want to be visible to others. Is there some way to hide the folder view, while still proxying the view right to appointments?
Thanks

Ok, Thanks - I'm satisfied as long as that's by design.

There is no way to hide this.

Hi .. Is there a way to set up our iPad (1) for multi users. Our household iPad is under my husbands account and my iPhone my own account. Can the iPad be set up to read both iCloud / iTunes or not?

Hi .. When we bought our iPad my hubby set up in his name / iTunes / iCloud. I now have iPhone ( he does not) and the two do not sync !! I would wipe him from the iPad but we have purchased all the apps etc in his iTunes account and not mine. Is there a way that my iPhone could sync with the iPad .. Can you set up multi iCloud accounts ?? Sorry but not very techno savvy !!!!

The iPad, like the iPod Touch and the iPhone was really designed to be a single user device. It was originally designed to be used in conjunction with ones personal iTunes library and one library only. Now it has gone PC free, but it still works the same way that it did at the inception, meaning it is still best suited as a single user device.
If you sign in and out of different Apple ID's on the iPad and you download past purchases with another ID, you will lock yourself out of the other ID for 90 days becuse you have associated the device with another Apple ID. You can read more about that here.
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4627
You can have multiple iCloud accounts (up to 3 I think) on the device, but to me that serves no real purpose if you can't associate the device with multiple ID's without worry of being locked out of your own ID.

Web Agent and Clip Board set up for multi user environment

Hi
Our environment is
Database: 0racle8.1.5 on Sun Solaris
Currently we are not using OAS but a portal server and Apache
Intermedia Web Agent and Clip Board are working fine.
The questions are
1. if there are multiple users (content managers) who would be adding /modifying content in the database, the how can I go about with Clip board.
2.The requirement is these people should be able to search documents on the basis of keywords. So how do we integrate Intermedia query capabilities on this clip board interface.
3. For production level how do we go about implementing.
Should we continue to have the ctxsys user and use that itself.
Thank you for any solutions
