Can not login to OS X Server 10.4

Hi, I'm using OX Server 10.4 with Open Directory.
I've been experiencing a strange behaviour sometimes. Every other month or so, users stop being able to login via SSH to my server.
Disabling and enabling SSH in sharing doesn't do the trick...maybe it is some ApplePasswordService issue.
I just reboot the server as I never found any way to resolve this either here or at any other site.
Today, feeling confident that it could be an ApplePasswordService issue
I've done the following:
prompt>NeST -stoppasswordserver
prompt>NeST -startpasswordserver
Didn't work either...
I reboot the server and now I can not login locally with my personal or admin account, so now it's complicated.
Booted in Safe mode (pressing shift when booting) but i get the same thing. After entering the username and password the server shows that progress colour circle spinning forever.
Booting in single user I was able to check the logs.
In /var/log/secure i get:
SecurityAgent[104]:Showing Login Window
SecurityAgent[104]:User Authenticated: continue login process
And nothing else after that.
I've done "fsck -fy" in single user also without any result. I really need some help here...
Any ideas please ?
Thank you very much.
Regards
David

I think I made a mistake and typed a command made for NetInfo. Now, could that disable Open Directory authentication ? If so, How can I restore the Open Directory authentication ?

    after restart admin server, this issue was solved.
    My question is this normal? this could be a issue for high availability.
    Best regards

    Admin server's purpose is - to control other managed servers.For High availability you can use clustered enviroment and other stuffs as suggested by oracle.
    Without running Admin server how security->myrealms>Users will work ?Users will not be available ,that's why you are getting such errors.

  • Can not login access manager

    last week, i login access manager, under the web label or configuration label�F

    then save configuration.
    but after that i can not login access manager.

    Hi,

    Then I only configure JDBC authentication with mysql database that I don't used ldapservice.
    When I created a one new user in MySQL, I can login into web application that i security as "sample.war" successfull but new user don't right access resource that i protected before.
    When i login access manager with amdmin user, I can not find user that i has been created it in MySQL database. t
    When the users are created through the dynamic profile, the default cn/sn are set to "default" , after creation you need to login to amconsole as amadmin and change/add proper values for these attributes.
    Alternatively you can set the protected resource's policy subject to Authenticated users. This will work but not sure will meet your requirement
    >
    When i login access manager console with new user, it login successful, and view Profile of new user that I has been created.
    Can you tell me How to manage new user that I has been new in MySQL by Access manager console ?
    I want to configure access proteced resourse for that user. How to configure that ?
    read above use the authenticated users subject
    Thank for every help.

  • Database Login - Can not login as sysdba

    I have a userid for a database on a separate server. I can login as sysdba on the server with the database and from the OEM server. I can not login as sysdba from OEM. Is there a change that needs to be made to the password file or does there need to be password file on the OEM repository server?

    What do you mean with OEM server here? Centralized gridcontrol server? That's a different concept, you connect to a specific administration user (often SYSMAN), 'sysdba' is not applicable here. Otherwise a server, which hosts a standalone DBConsole is not different from any other database server.

  • After add single signoff HTML code, Portal system can not login in Firefox

    We implemented single singon between our Portal system and HCM system.
    After we add the single signoff HTML code to the signout.html,expire.html, exception.html file of the web server of portal system, and we change the web profile:
    Logout Page:signin.html to signout.html
    Signon Page:signon.html to signout.html
    We can not login the Portal system in Firefox browser, system display the following error information:
    "You must have cookies enabled in order to sign in to your PeopleSoft application."
    We can login in the Portal system in IE browser.
    We can login the HCM login in FireFox.

    My HCM and Portal application is 9.0. PeopleToos is 8.49 for the same application.
    The Firefox Browser is :3.0.1.
    My App, Web and DB server for the HCM and Portal deployed on the same local machine, so the tow application have the same domain.
    And the client browser is on the same machine with the server.
    And when I remove all the pagelet from the portal homepage, the system report the same error information when login portal system in Firefox. Only when I stop the HCM web server, I can login in portal system in Firefox.

  • I can not login to any mail accounts using my browser...

    I can not login in any of my mail accounts (e.g. yahoo, hotmail, gmail) using safari, google chrome even messengers. However, I can browse easily. Moreover, apple mail is not working either. I have tried to reset all my three accounts but my MacBook Air can not contact with Incoming or Outgoing server. Please, help me in solving the problem.

    Hi
    It is because you are putting the www. in front of each of them
    Try:

  • Single CUPC user can not login

    Hi All,
    I have a CUPC user who can not login to the client software.
    She is getting login error:  username/password.
    She is connecting via a VPN and can ping both the CCM and CUPS directly using the IP address.
    She can also login to the CCM user page using a link to its IP address.
    I have ruled out incorrect typing because she used the same username/password to login to the vpn and the CCM user page. (email etc)
    Since she is in a process of logging in, I dont have the option of getting the log files from her client.
    Any ideas on how I can troubleshoot would be much appreciated.
    Thanks very much
    Regards,
    Amanda Lalli-Cafini

    Hi Amanda,
    Please add the host names of CUPS server and CUCM on the client machine in the hostname file and retry.
    Hope it helps.

  • Can not login to Oracle Application Express after upgrade to 3.2

    I installed oracle database express and then I upgrade APEX to 3.2 on it. I got the login page but I can not login by using any account, like SYS, SYSTEM. From the document, internal ADMIN account should exist but I did not see it from dba_users table.

    HI Don,
    I did run apxchpwd.sql to change the Application Express ADMIN user password. Then I invoked http://mymachine:8080/apex and got the Application Express login page. I put ADMIN in workspace and ADMIN in Username and the new password. But I still cannot login. I also tried http://mymachine:8080/apex/apex_admin page login. I typed ADMIN as username and the new password. Then I clicked on Login button. Nothing happened. No error message.
    Any idea?
    By the way, what does apxxepwd.sql do?
    Thanks,

  • Apple tv 2 problem: I can not login with my ID account!!!!!

    apple tv does not login with my ID! Do you have a solution? Since a few weeks I can not login in with my password...
    I tried everything:
    - re-starting apple tv.
    - login on macbook with my apple ID with new password

    Signal Strengh on WiFi was great (its a new Apple Time Capsule and has to be reset often).  Checked the internet connectivity on other machines too (incase that was inop).   I checked the network first as that is typically a impediment to all other things working prior to my previous comment.  I logged in to iTunes and MobleMe to see that my password was correct and working.  hmmm.
    I reset the Apple TV next and again changed my iTunes password on my laptop, then ran a network test (which needs a itunes password to work).  Network check was successful and I am logged back in.
    Now it says...."Netflix is currently unavailable. Try again later".
    geez.

    It is not a bug, you might be using IE in Windows server 2012 and and browser might be restricting your site actions to respond properly.
    Check this in a different browser or access site in a differ OS.

    I have an apple id but ı can not use it for sign in to itunes connect account while publishing my ibook document. Why ı can not login? What can ı do to figure out this problem?

    As note already on the iBA forum [ AppleID for ibooks publishing ], you need two IDs. You can't use your developer ID.
    If you already signed up for books with that ID, you need to talk to Apple to straighten things out.
