Can't login to Leopard Server after 10.5.3 update!

This is very strange and a little alarming. Last night we upgraded our server from 10.5.2 to 10.5.3. Everything seemed to go good, we were are able to login to all the services (AFP, Web Services, Server Admin, Workgroup Manager, Directory, etc) with no problems.
If I try to login to the OS either from Screen Sharing OR right at the machine, we can not log in at all. We are definitely using the correct credentials (same that we have been using for months) but when we enter them, the login box just shakes as if it is incorrect.
Any ideas?

Workgroup Manager would not let my Directory Administrator log in. I was able to log in using the local admin login (not localadmin as suggested earlier- that didn't work for me) I am new to the server environment so I don't know if this is voodoo or not but this is what fixed it for me:
1. Restore Server to last backup of 10.5.2 using Time Machine
2. Several log directories were missing after I restored so in order to stop the errors I re-created the directories. Some other errors were coming up mentioning kerberos so I decided to try to update again. Time Machine is nice but I don't think its ready for Server yet. (Apple please fix this its a nice feature!)
3. On a hunch I REMOVED A SPACE IN THE NAME OF MY BOOT DRIVE. From "Name Boot" to "Name_Boot" --- I don't know if this does anything or not but I've heard of weird issues like this in the past.
4. Repaired Permissions
5. Applied 10.5.3 combined update
6. Repaired Permissions (allot of permissions fixed here-supposedly)
Workgroup manager now connects. Time Machine errors out. I havn't gone through the logs yet to see what else the process broke.
I hope this can help someone ore at lease put someone down the right path to discovering the reason for the break.

Hi,
I found solution to the problem. By default sshd in solars 10 does not permit root logins.
We need to edit /etc/ssh/sshd_config file as follows:
PermitRootLogin yes
and restart the sshd.
#svcadm restart ssh

Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

Users can't log in to server after X number of computers connect

I'm running a Leopard server with unlimited number of connections in a high school setting. It is set for an Open Directory master. After "X" number of students login, the students get a server error and no additional students can't login to their accounts. I logged into one of the student machines as admin and tried to connect to the server using the "Go-->Connect to Server" with their user ID and password. Here is the message that was returned:"This fileserver will not allow any additional users to log on. Please try to connect again later." Any ideas out there? Thanks for the look.

The next step is to open Console (or Terminal, or access the logs via ServerAdmin if you prefer) and look at the logs. I've never seen a similar issue, so I can't even begin to guess what's happening. AFP logs would be a good place to start, but poke around whatever other logs that may be relevant and see if there are any clues. I have seen Servers have issues with all connections, but never more than a certain number, and 8 makes no sense.
Can you elaborate any more on what your network looks like and how exactly your server is setup, and how you set it up?

Can't login to my account after upgrading to Mavericks

I have a late 2008 Macbook Pro. I have had no problems up until upgrading to Mavericks. I did a complete backup using Time Machine prior upgrading. I have a 750 GB hard disk with about 70 GB of free space. This computer has been bullet proof for 5 years now.
Anyway, I tried to upgrade to Mavericks when the OS came out but was unsuccessful at that time. It just hung up halfway through the install. I decided to just restore than to waste time figuring out what happened.
Fast forward to yesterday. I decided to give it a try again. The download and install completed without any problems. However, I can not login to my machine using my account. After entering my password, I am just getting the spinning rainbow wheel or whatever it is called. Techincally, I have two accounts, one for me and one for girlfriend. She never used hers so mine has been the only one we have ever used on the computer. That account does have admin permissions and that is also the one where I started the upgrade from.
Things I have tried so far...
1) Added another admin account to try and remove unused applications just in case old programs were no longer compatible. Btw, I can successfully log into this account. This is actually the account were I am logged into currently and using Safari to document this problem.
2) Launched File Utility. I did verify disk permissions and then repair after it completed. No luck. I also did Verify Disk but that did not return any problems.
3) I also did a reinstall of Mavericks again but the same problem still exists.
Btw, I did notice when logged in as Admin to the newly created account, that the Downloads, Desktop and Movies folder under my original user account have a little icon or stop sign next to their name when viewing through Finder. Permission problem? Even if that is the case, not sure why I would not be able to login into my original account.
Any ideas? Worst case I will restore my backup and just forget about Mavericks all together. I guess if I have nothing better to do some day in the future maybe I will do a fresh install and try to restore my personal files back. However that sounds like a lot of work.
Thanks..

I can't login on some websites, after I updated Firefox

Hello.
I'm running Firefox version 20.0.1, and I can't login on certain websites. The login details are corect, since I can login using Chrome. This started after the update to that latest version of Firefox. I haven't installed any new add-ons before the update, or after it.
I cleared the cache (using Ccleaner and also from within browser's options), but that didn't solve my problem. I also cleared cookies, deleted browsing history, made sure I accepted 3rd party cookies. I also un-ticked the "I don't want to be tracked" option. I made sure that the sites I can't login into are not blocked from accepting cookies, or from anything else.
I have some add-ons installed (Ad-block, HTTPS everywhere, etc.), which I disabled one-by-one to see if they were causing problems, but with no success. Since I could login before the update, it's clearly not an add-on problem here.
Thank you.

I deleted the cookies.sqlite, but I still cannot' login into those sites.

Can't login to admin server

Hello, I have a problem which is driving me crazy.
I simply can not login to the admin server.
I'm connecting to the flash admin-frontend which is hosted on the same server which the FMS is running on. The FMS version is 3.0.1 and it's running on RHEL5.
I've set the user and password in conf/fms.ini. I have checked that I have permission to connect in conf/Users.xml. Everything seems like it should work, but it just won't let me in and when looking in the logs (logs/admin.00.log) I just get a lot of lines saying "Failed login attempt from..."
Apart from this the server works. We are still using it for streaming and we have been able to login to the admin interface before, but it was a long time ago and now it just won't work anymore.
Any ideas?

Thanks for the reply.
The admin log just contains a lot lines like these:
2011-04-01 14:57:31 22552 (w)2671165 Failed login attempt from 130.239.57.123 at Fri 01 Apr 2011 02:57:31 PM CEST. -

And here's the Users.xml, I'm actually not sure why there's a password in here as well, or how it is updated (since it's encrypted).

Can't login to ML server network user from a client

Hi,
The computer name on my customer's ML server was changed post OD installation. Now I can't login with network user credentials from a MacBook.
I also see the old server/hostname displayed in workgroup manager under "location" (see attached).
I've tried destroying OD by deleting it in Server app then re-adding it again but it still shows the old name in WGM as shown in the screenshot above.
I suspect this is related to authentication problems. Should I be running a utility like changeDirData.pl to update the old values? If so, what is the syntaxt?
Old name was: server1.stmarys.lan
New name is: server1.local
I ran the following: sudo /Applications/Server.app/Contents/ServerRoot/usr/libexec/changeDirData.pl -i -s 192.168.2.2 -u diradmin -o server1.stmarys.lan -n server1.local
But got an error: cant contact ldap server to get config info

After contacting Apple server support, I was told there were two issues:
1- ".local" cannot be used in a hostname due to conflict with Bonjour
2- Hostnames must have three parts like "server.company.lan" & "server.lan" cannot be used
I wish Apple would inform users with a pop-up about these rules before they waste a lot of time having to re-do everything from scrath. I was lucky enough to have an export of all users.
If these rules are followed from the begining, DNS would auto-configure itself with the appropriate forward & reverse records.

Can't login to repository DB after installing EM using response file

Anyone can help me?
I installed EM 10g grid control 10.1.0.3 on solaris 9, it was a silent installation with response file, with new db. I specified the passwords for sysman, sys,system and dbsnmp in the response file, the installation went smoothly, but after that, when I tried to login to the repository database using the passwords which I set in the response file, it told me that my password was wrong! but the account status are all 'OPEN'. So I have to change the passwords mannually again. Is it OK to specify password in the response file?
Anyone can help me?
The following were the account status after EM 10g installation
SQL> select username, account_status from dba_users;
USERNAME ACCOUNT_STATUS
SYS OPEN
SYSTEM OPEN
DBSNMP OPEN
SYSMAN OPEN

Hi daryle
the passwords are all "password" or "sysman", no funny chars.
the following are the required items in the response file

I installed again with this response file, everything going up ok, the only problem is that I can not login to the respository database with the password i set in my response file. that means I HAVE TO change them at the db site.

Can't login to Game Center after updating my iPad to iOS7

Hi there
I can't seem to login to Game Center after updating my iPad. I don't know whether it's the update, or the fact that I forgot my password.
Anyway, how do I get back into my account? Just to let you guys know, the email account I used to setup the Game Center account is no longer valid.
Help!

Some folks have discovered that changing their DNS service fixes FaceTime connection issues.
The ideal way is to configure your modem/router with DNS service, but often settings in Settings/Wi-Fi on your iPad will override the router settings. Try either of these;
OpenDNS
208.67.222.222, 208.67.220.220
Google Public DNS
8.8.8.8. 8.8.4.4

Can't login to Mac Pro after every restart

Hi all,
For 5 days I've not been able to log into my computer at work after its been restarted/gone to sleep. The IT guys have had to do all kinds of stuff to get it working again. And every time we think it's fixed, I've come in the next morning and have the same problem, can't login.
I've eliminated that its my login details as I was able to login on another machine just fine. And others can't login to my computer, so it's obviously an issue with my machine/OS.
Does anyone have any ideas of why this would keep happening? It's as if something keeps resetting after each restart that then won't allow anyone else to login. This is all I can think of, but honestly have no idea. Any suggestions or help would be greatly appreciated as its really frustrating and putting me very behind on my work. Thank you!
Btw, it's a Mac Pro duel quad core, 16GB ram, OS 10.6.7 I believe.
Also, the admin and root can login, just not any other accounts. So the computer can be accessed, but not thru my or any other accounts on the network.

Hey there.
Well, I figured out what is causing my problem. It's Mobile accounts. I started fresh with a new install and a standard Active Directory account (not Mobile). I authenticated 20+ times. Rebooted at least 10 times. Everything worked great. Then I decided to create the Mobile account. That's when everything broke again. My Active Directory account was getting locked after one accurate attempt to authenticate. When IT unlocked it I could go one step further but then would lock me out the next time I tried to authenticate. I've replicated this twice.
So for me, it's clearly a Mobile account problem. Which is bad because half of the Macs under my care are notebooks.
Please let me know what you find out on your end.
Thanks,
Adam

Can I use Snow Leopard Server with Windows clients?

Mainly for e-mails and calendars. I have small office with 12 windows computers from XP to Win 7 and MS Office from 2003 to 2007. Will Snow Leopard Server work with that?

Can Mac OS X Server do this? Sure.
You're going to be learning a whole lot about running a server, regardless.
You really need to sort out what you have here and where you want to be, and how to upgrade or replace yor migrate your environment, and before you add the substantial increase in complexity of serving Windows from Mac. If you can't get off of Office circa 2003 or similarly old software, what are you going to do when you find, say, an incompatibility, or a need to migrate mail clients? Who are you going to call for help?
I'd guess that Small Business Server (SBS) is likely your best target here.
AFAIK, Exchange Server (which I'm guessing is what you're using) supports larger mailboxes in newer releases.
Look at the sustaining costs for what you're considering purchasing, too. How much it'll cost to configure, deploy and maintain the box and the network. Up-front costs are an obvious consideration, but maintaining many boxes and many versions itself introduces costs.
The arrival of Lion Server next month does not change my opinion. (And I'm not usually suggesting Windows and Windows Server boxes, either.) (And with the arrival of Lion and Lion Server, I'll follow my usual approach and not look to upgrade to the first release of that (or any other) new platform, if there are business-critical functions and services involved. You need time to debug and test the deployment.)

Can I install Snow leopard server on the new Mac Mini Lion server?

Hi guys, I purchased a Lion Server and I am wondering if its possible to install Snow Leopard server on it.
I have the Snow Leopard Server install discs and everything , just wondering if there is any thing I should take note of, I personally prefer SLS over Lion.
What do you guys think?

There's a huge thread on this (client, not server, but same concept) which you can find here.
