  • Cannot login with a account created with workgroup manager on local box

    Hi my name is richard and i recentgly acqquired from one of ,y friends a macbook pro with leopard 10.5.7 and I downloaded the server tools to it because workgroup manager gives me more control over user creation and the like.there are three issues that i am facing right now:
    1) I create an account for a user "VERONICA MARS" short name vmars with a password of apple. when I try to login using that account the login window just sits there and shakes its head at me like no no no wrong cridentials.
    2) using the same account vmars i try to reset her password using wgm and it says that it cannot reset the password.
    3) when i try to create the account it tells me that the home directory cannot be created.
    oh and heres a bonus one:
    most of the time in wgm it takes forever to get from one tab to the next and ill have to do a force quit to restore my mkac back to normal.
    if anyone can help with these issues please respond
    thanks in advanced

  • Cannot login with Network account.

    Hi,
    I am an experimented Mac user, but quite new with Snow Leopard Server.
    I've just purchased the brand new MacMini Server.
    I have configured my server with the name server.local and installed OpenDirectory as Master.
    I wanted to try the network login, so I created a Test1 account in Open Directory. Then from my iMac I joined my server.local through System Preferences/Accounts/Options/... then I log off and try to use the newly created account test1.... I asked the system to change the password from first loggin... which works, but then I receive a message saying that I cannot log in for the moment... I tried everything but I just can't use the network account.
    Any hints?
    Cheers.

    You should avoid .local at all costs when configuring an OS X Server.
    .local is reserved for zeroconfig/Bonjour, and will cause conflicts.
    There's an excellent tutorial for new users here

  • I have set up a file share but cannot login with my account

    Hi everyone. I set up a file share using the settings in OS 10.5, however when I go to login on Windows Vista using my specially created read only account (called: remote). I cannot get it.
    I can only get in using these settings:
    user name = xxx.xxx.x.xxx\myaccount
    password = blah blah blah.
    Yet when I apply the same settings changing 'myaccount' to 'remote', I cannot get in.
    I'm not sure where I am going wrong, any help would be much appreciated. Thanks!

    No need to apologise, I'm the idiot who can't setup a home network. Although I'm sure Vista is at least to blame somehow.
    I have sharing turned on and it says "Windows users can access your computer at smb://192.168.x.xxx."
    If I click "options" it has a box which has an "on" tick box and my name. I have ticked it. When I ticked it, it asked for my admin password which I supplied.
    On the firewall front I have allow all incoming connections.
    I am trying to login to 'remote' whilst my Mac is still logged in as me, 'nathan' I have successfully logged in to the mac on the same settings using account: 'nathan' on Vista whilst still in 'nathan' on the mac.
    I am trying to connect going into network on vista and selecting my mac, correct.
    The connect works with 'nathan' if I go:
    192.168.x.xxx\nathan
    password
    but for some reason the 'remote' user I have set up wont work on vista using the same format.
    Thanks.

  • Cannot login with mobile account when server is switched off

    Hello all,
    First of all, my condolences to the Jobs family. 
    OK.  On with my problem.  I apologise in advance if this has been answered before.  I've trawlled through various boards and I can't seem to find an answer.
    I'll try to keep it brief.
    I've set up a mac mini with lion server.  Done all necessary updates.
    I have a lion macbook which is the client.
    On server, created an Open Directory etc..
    I created 2 mobile network accounts on the server.  Set preferences etc..  Added both to workgroup.
    Added the client to the domain in system prefs login options.
    Logged into the 2 accounts on the client.  All working well.  Can see my mounts.  Mobile accounts created successfully and syncing working.
    So, the problem I have is, when I shutdown the server, my mobile accounts on the client disappear.  Also, the login screen states, 'Network accounts are unavailable.'
    I've been looking at this for a week now and it's driving me mad.  I must have missed something - can anyone shed any light on this please?
    With thanks, Paul.

    oh well - gave up and reinstalled lion server.
    GROAN!

  • Cannot access to any site with ssl connection and fail to open safari and keychain, unless restart computer and login in with Guest account.

    when Update to 10.7.2 ,I cannot access to any site with ssl connection and fail to open safari and keychain, unless restart computer and login in with Guest account.
    OS:10.7.2
    Macbook Pro 2010-mid 13inch

    I also have the same problem, however if I use Firefox or Opera sites with ssl connection work fine. Still, I can't use Google Chrome (ssl), Safari (ssl), the Mac app store (generally), or the iTunes store (generally). Both the iTunes store, Safari and the app store won't respond, and Chrome displays this error: (net::ERR_TIMED_OUT). The problem persists regardless of what network I'm using. Also, when trying to access the keychain or iCloud, the process will not start (will hang). I didn't have these problems at all before updating to 10.7.2.
    Sometimes rebooting helps, and sometimes not. If the problem disappears by rebooting, then it only lasts a few minutes before it reappears. It is very frustrating, especially since there doesn't seem to be any obvious or consistent way of which to fix it.
    I'm also using a Macbook Pro 13-inch mid 2010.

  • Can't Login With Network Account After Upgrade To Yosemite Server 4

    I've been putting off this troubleshooting for a while now, and after trying everything I could find, decided to post.
    - After upgrading my server to Yosemite with Server 4, and my MacBook to Yosemite, I can no longer login with any network accounts.
    - I was on clean installs of Mavericks before the upgrade.
    - I'm using SSL for the OD, with a GoDaddy cert, the same one that was working on Mavericks.
    - I've tried removing the laptop's binding using the Users and Groups preferences dialog, which does not remove the laptop's entry from Open Directory, so I manually deleted the record on the server.
    - I then choose to Join again, and it looks as though everything goes through, but I still cannot login with a network account.  Also, when rejoining, it does not create a binding on the server.
    - If I use the Directory Utility->Services->LDAPv3, and add it that way, entering the FQDN and checking Encrypt..., Use for auth and Use for contacts, it asks me for the directory admin username and password, and does in fact create the binding on the server, but I still cannot login.  What's strange about that method, is that it forces the use of the IP address of the server, rather than the FQDN, like I entered it, which would of course have problems, because the certificate's common name is the server's FQDN.  It does not allow me to change from using the IP address, graying out that field.
    - I've also tried destroying the OD and restoring from archive to no avail.
    It looks like many users have hit dead ends with this, with some having success by completely formatting and setting up a new iteration of the server, but I will not be doing that.  However, I'll be happy to try any other suggestions.
    Thanks for your time,
       -- Mike

         Okay, I've finally resolved the issue, thanks to the Apple Enterprise tech support team.  I'm thinking they wouldn't mind if I share this information, but I can't guarantee that this will work on your system or, worse yet, degrade your system further.  However, that's fairly unlikely, just make sure you have plenty of backups before you begin any troubleshooting session.
         So I was told to perform the following instructions, which I did, line for line.  The part about closing Server.app seems a given, but I'm not sure why they want you to open Server.app at the the end (maybe taken out of context from some other instructions?).  I did it anyway, but you should be able to begin testing, on a client workstation, right after rekerberizing is complete.  I did, however, need to reboot my client, login as local admin, and then binding would proceed, and network users are able to login again.  The engineer also let me know to expect an error, something like the following: "2015-03-11 21:58:38 +0000 Error synchronizing removal of attribute draft-krbPrincipalACL from record 72519e4c-7ac7-15e4-bd42-10adb1944cbc: 77013 result: 16 No such attribute" - this is apparently normal, and did in fact happen in my experience.
    So here's the fix:
    - Quit Server.app (don’t just close the window)
    - On the Open Directory Server, execute these Terminal commands:
      - sudo mkdir /var/db/openldap/migration/
      - sudo touch /var/db/openldap/migration/.rekerberize
      - sudo slapconfig -firstboot
    - Open Server.app
    And that's it.  I did nothing else on my OD server, just logged out.  Immediately tried binding on my MacBook client, it failed, I rebooted, tried again, it worked quickly, and I'm able to login with network user accounts again.

  • I cannot login with my Microsoft Acount

    I just installed Skype 6.14.1.104 on my desktop.
    And I created a new MicroSoft account: degen_iddink   [at]   hotmail.com
    When I login using Login with Microsof account I get the message my login is not recognized.
    Can you help me to fix this issue so I can use Skype.
    NOTE: I already tried this without success:
    -reinstalled skype
    -restarted PC
    -performed a password reset
    NOTE2: Login on skype.nl / skype.com  and hotmail.com works properly.

    Did you click on "Microsoft account" on the first Skype sign in screen...
    ...to be taken to the Microsoft account sign in:
    On that screen you enter the email address and password for your Microsoft and should be able to sign in to Skype then.

  • Failure of ACL setting for CIFS share resource on Windows client logined with administrator account

    Hi,
      We accounter a puzzle of ACL setting for a CIFS share resource. In our application, we use the
    administrator account to login a Windows 7 OS which is used as the CIFS client. We can access the share resource by "\\server_ip" on  this CIFS client,  but we can't add
    a new ACE to the ACL of a CIFS share resource provided by a CIFS server.
    Why dose this hanppen? Note that the CIFS server maybe a Windows OS or a self-developed CIFS server. 
      The operation details as followed:
    1.Access the share resource by "\\server_ip", login the CIFS server by a valid account on the CIFS server.
    2.On the Windows client, select the "Security" panel in the mouse-right-button properties dialog of a cifs share resource.
    3.To add a new ACE for someone eg. user0, we input "user0" in the "Select Users ans Groups" dialog popped up.
    4.Click OK, but the Windows client will not get the user information for user0 from the CIFS server.
    WHY?
    5.By wireshare network trace, we find the Windows client didn't send any SAMR requests to the CIFS server.
    6.Restart the Windows client OS and login again with another account except administrator, carry out the above operations. We find that the Windows client can get the user information, opposite with the step 4 above.
    WHY?
    7.By wireshare network trace, we find that the Windows client has sent SAMR requests to the CIFS server to get user informations. But that is different from step 5,  WHY?
    If the Windows client OS is login with administrator account, is there any configuration on Windows client to decide whether request user information on CIFS server when setting ACL for CIFS share resource?
    Expect your help.Thanks.
    Best wishes.

    My account Cannot login and say account restricted ! i Never make payment
    and my history payment ( You haven't purchased anything yet. ) !!!
    what it's doing ?
    My Skype ID : [Removed for privacy]

    Well if you were born and raised here in the US or Moved to US and got citizenship you should have a Social Security Card many businesses Like Verizon, or Credit Cards companies require having a S.S.C and require giving at least the Last 4 of the Card to Verify who you are + they'll probably ask a few other security credentials..
    I'd say for now getting what you had is not going to be easy at least until you get and established S.S.C. and or if you can prove any other Information Verizon may ask you for..
    Hope that Helps Good Luck b33

  • Cannot login with Active Directory Account

    Hello,
    I am testing SnowLeopard (10.6.1) for deployment in my labs for the Spring 2010 semester. We use local home directories. This is a brand new fresh install of SL, on a freshly formatted Hard Drive.
    When bound to Active Directory I can get any AD account that I've tested (5 different accounts) to authenticate except one, which happens to be my own personal AD account.
    The secure.log shows these entries when I attempt to login:
    Oct 9 14:18:29 mac-0017f20fc40 SecurityAgent[209]: User info context values set for ctarbox
    Oct 9 14:18:29 mac-0017f20fc40 authorizationhost[208]: Failed to authenticate user <ctarbox> (tDirStatus: -14090).
    Considering that I could log in with other accounts, and after resetting my AD password then still not being able to authenticate, I came to the conclusion that I had a corrupt OU in Active Directory.
    I contacted one of our AD admins and had him delete both of my AD accounts: ctarbox and ctarbox1 then recreate both accounts. I still cannot login to AD with my ctarbox account.
    I can still login to my current lab machines anywhere on campus running 10.5.8 with ctarbox.
    I am baffled by this. I have been authenticating to Active Directory since 10.1 and have never seen anything like this.
    Any idea, anyone?
    Cheryl Tarbox

    I have found the solution to my problem. I have accounts in two different domains in our AD tree. I'll called these domains Domain A and Domain B.
    Domain A is the primary domain for authentication to our public computing labs.
    Domain B is a secondary domain for authentication to shared resources for faculty/staff.
    Both accounts have the same user ID, but different passwords. In my Directory Utility>Advanced>Administrative window I have the option "Allow authentication from any domain in the forest' checked.
    With this option checked Directory Utility in 10.6.1 will allow me to authenticate Domain B, but not Domain A.
    With this option checked in Directory Utility in 10.5.8 just the opposite is taking place, I can authenticate to Domain A, but not Domain B.
    It seems that somewhere in the upgrade to 10.6.1 the search policy for Active Directory has changed. My workaround is to uncheck this option and specifically choose Domain A in the search policy.
