Deny access on usb disk for a system group

Hello,
I'm on Debian 6.0 with XFCE.
I want some users can't use usb disk.
So I'm looking at hald.conf and find :  <policy group="plugdev">, but if the user is on the group udev or not, that's the same thing, usb key was mounted by hal.
Can you help me please ?
Thanks

  • How to access a USB disk drive connected to Airport Extreme from a Windows 7 PC?

    How can I access a USB disk drive connected to Airport Extreme from a Windows 7 PC?

    ...Called it a roaming network.  Wireless mode is create a wireless network. I have checked allow this network to be extended.  Probably need to uncheck that?
    Yes, that option should be deselected as it only pertains to when both routers are interconnected by wireless. Since you have a roaming network, they of course, would be interconnected by Ethernet.
    The other important settings for a roaming network are:
    Each router must have a unique station name. For the AirPort, this would be called its Base Station Name. I believe the default station name for Linksys routers is: linksys
    Each router must broadcast a wireless network with an identical Network Name. For the Linksys, Network Name is the same as its SSID.
    Each router wireless network must use the same Wireless Security type and password. The Linksys WRT-54G is capable of up to WPA2 Personal. If you have it set to this level of security, the AirPort should be at the same setting.
    Make sure that each router is not on the same Radio Channel for the 2.4 GHz radio. In the US, there are basically only three non-overlapping channels: 1, 6, or 11. Set each so that they don't use the same channel but use of those three choices.

    Don't know. You have not told us what system you have.

  • Unable to access shared USB Disks on Airport Extreme using Leopard

    I have a Mac Book Pro, iMac and Mac Mini all running Leopard with all of the latest updates. I use an Airport Extreme (also patched to the latest updates), and it has a 100 GB USB drive attached.
    When I was running OS X Tiger, all of my devices could connect to the shared USB drive and store files. Now that I've upgraded all of my platforms to Leopard, none of them can access the USB drive. If I try to open the disk using Finder I get the following error:
    "The operation cannot be completed because the original item for "Shared Disk 1" cannot be found."
    Anyone have a clue as to how to fix this?
    Thanks...

  • Need to deny access to file manager for the user

    Hi
    I need to be able to deny access to the file manager, as I dont want my client deleting files. however, for some reason I have to allow him access to this as he needs to be able to upload files through InContext Editor (he needs to link pages to documents that are not on the server so he needs to upload them and to do this, I have to grant him access to file manager).  How can I get around this?  I dont want to have to reupload his site every time he deletes a file....

    Unfortunately it can't be done - access to the file manager allows deleting as well as uploading and at this point that cannot be changed.

  • Using TC like a USB Disk for capturing TV Stream.

    Hi There,
    I have a satellite receiver which hase USB port. A USB stick can be plugged in, such that I can record TV streams on that USB. I tried to connect the TC and the receiver using a USB cable to record the stream on TC, but the receiver does not recognize the TC as a "USB Disk", I'm wondering what would happen,if I use a USB-to-Ethernet adapter. Can the TC, basically operate as an external HD if it is connected via Ethernet port to another device?

    The USB port on the TC is meant for attaching an external USB HDD, printer, or hub ... NOT for connecting the TC to another device as an external HDD itself.
    If you want to use the TC's internal HDD for file storage, you would need to connect to it either by Ethernet or by wireless.

  • ByDesign : Deny access to invoice cancellation for Customer Service role

    Hi Experts,
    I've got the requirement from our customer that they need to allow Customer Service to create invoice but NOT allow them to cancel it.
    I have tried to set the restriction but it doesn't work. In my understanding, standard ByDesign can restrict the role to not access all action in Work Center View, cannot restrict only some actions (i.e. cancellation).
    Is there any way to deny access or setting the restriction to Customer Service role? or is it possible to using ByDesign Studio to customize it?
    Thank you very much for any suggestion in advance.
    Regards,

    Hi Tobias,
    I've noticed in standard ByDesign can assign an UI switch to disable some functions/button which is what I'm looking for. But I thought it can only assign to the Self-Service overview so I gave up on it.
    However, your answer is very helpful, I will take a look at Cloud Studio and try to do it as your advice.
    Thank you very much.

  • USB disk for time machine?

    I'm looking for recommendations for reliable brands of USB exteral drives for use with Time Machine back-up. I have a Western Digital Passport drive that used to work ok, but now randomly ejects when I try to run a TM back-up, or even when trying to use Disk Utility on the drive. The Passport drive seems to be failing, so, what is a good (better) brand external drive?

    Greetings,
    I like to look at the average buyer ratings:

    http://store.apple.com/us/product/H2068VC/A
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/H0815VC/A
    I've got a few WDs and Seagates and an Acomdata.  Always had good luck with them.
    Some manufactures offer longer warranties (like 2 years at LaCie) so read the fine print to get the longest one you can.
    Cheers.

  • I bought my g5 at a pawn shop. How can I get the proper disks for my system?

    All I get now is the apple icon when starting my computer why is that?

    All I get now is the apple icon when starting my computer why is that?
    Means the file system has become corrupted.  It could be because of a bad hd.  Hd's average life is five years.
    Getting a leopard disk is close enough. Has all g5 drivers.  you will miss bonus software that came with machine   ... could have been iLife & some Games, etc.   Not a biggie.
      Shutdown your machine.  Hold down the shift key.  Poweron.  Wait awhile Wait awhile while you harddrive
    is being checked.
        http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1455
    You need to get into single use mode.
    This page will tell you how to get into single user mode.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1492
    Basically, you hold down the command-s key then  powering on your machine. The command key has a little apple symbol on the lower left. It is between the alt/option key and the space bar. On a PC keyboard, it will be the windows key, I think.  The boot up will take longer than normal.   The filesystem will be checked and repaired.
    # reboot  your mac
    shutdown -r now

  • How do I restrict access to USB Disk connected to Airport Extreme

    I have attached a USB HDD to my Airport Extreme Base Station. The drive is divided into 4 partitions, which I did with the HDD connected directly to a MBP before plugging into the AEBS. All the Macs on the network seem to be able to read and write into all 4 partitions. Is there anyway to restrict which Macs can access with partition? Or, if I went to a single partition, is there a way to restrict access on a folder by folder basis?
    I've tried searching, but the best answer I've found so far is that the AEBS will only support a single partition/volume.... which doesn't appear to be true anymore.
    Thanks in advance

    You can put a filter on your wifi or use something like the K9 browser.

  • Access USB Disk from Win XP connected to Router

    Hello,
    My Airport express is plugged into cable modem router and so is a desktop running Win XP.
    Another 2 machines Macbook and Winxp laptop can access AE router, internet and the USB disk connected to AE.
    I am having trouble accessing the USB disk from desktop which does not have wifi and is hooked directly to cable modem router. I tried assigning a static IP to Airport Express and that didnt help either.
    Any ideas?
    hhol

    Welcome to the discussions!
    You posted in the AirPort Extreme forum, but your post indicates that you have an AirPort Express.
    If you have an AirPort Express, this device does not support hard drives at the USB port. Only compatible printers are supported.

  • New Airport Extreme (802.11ac) Support for Encrypted USB Disk

    The old Time Capsule and Airport Extreme apparently did not support a filevault2 encrypted USB disk for storing files like an NAS (not talking about a time machine backup).  Does anyone know whether the newly released Airport or Time Capsule now supports the encrypted disk?

    I do not think that USB encrypted disks are supported...and would be surprised if they were....but will know for sure late tomorrow.
    Will update at that time if no one else has answered before that time.
    The fact that Apple still has a USB 2.0 port on the new AirPort products might be a clue as well.

  • Can't see USB disk attached to other mac

    I have an Airport Express, on the network is a Mac Mini which has an USB disk attached to it (to the Mac Mini).
    However, I can't see the disk from any other mac that uses the Airport (this used to work)
    I've looked for "disk sharing" in Preferences and in the Airport Setup Utility, but couldn't find anything.
    I've also made the Sharing & Permissions of the USB disk for "Me" and "Everyone" as " Read & Write"
    Any idea how I can resolve this issue?
    Thanks,
    Awfers

    Ok, thanks for clarifying. You don't need to change any settings within the AirPort Utility, but let's double-check your Mac Mini's settings to make sure that it is both sharing the disk properly and that it's OS X firewall is not blocking the requests.
    For File Sharing: System Preferences > Sharing > File Sharing
    o Make sure that the folders on your external hard drive, that you want shared, are selected in the Shared Folders window.
    o Make sure that you have, at least, Everyone = Read Only set in the Users window.
    o Select Options..., and then, verify that you have "Share files and folders using AFP" is enabled for Mac clients, and "Share files and folders using SMB" is enabled for Windows clients.
    For the OS X Firewall: System Preferences > Security > Firewall
    o If "Allow all incoming connections" is enabled, verify that: "File Sharing (AFP, SMB)" is now displayed in the list.

  • Restrict Firefox Access to Local Disk Drives in Linux

    I used to be able to modify the browser.js file and use regular expressions with onLocationChange to restrict access to about:, file:, and resource: I am unable to locate where to make the changes to have this same behavior in Firefox 4.
    I need to configure the browser to deny access to local disks under Linux (e.g. file://usr/local/data) I also need to prevent my users from using about: and file: in order to meet corporate security requirements.
    I have exploded the omni.jar file, and looked for some time. Any help with this issue would be appreciated.

    Hi
    +". . . my 3TB RAID 5 that they're using has become rather full at this point (down to 200MB). . ."+
    I think the problem you're currently seeing starts (and probably ends) here. Regardless of what your data comprises of the general rule of thumb is to make sure you keep at least 10% of free disk space for any hard drive let alone a RAID. Most people would generally recommend 15% for a RAID 5. A rough calculation based on your 3TB RAID would mean you should keep at least 300GB free. You're well below that unless 200MB is a typo? I'm surprised the whole thing has not ground to a halt?
    Video Capture, Editing and Playback in a network home environment is always going to place a considerable strain on any network unless you've prepared the ground first. For example 60 seconds of RAW Video is roughly 200MB in size. Multiply this for a classroom of 16 and that's a lot of data. Even if you're not using hi-def you're still talking a lot of data.
    There are better ways of doing this.
    HTH?

  • How to make boot disk for MacBook Pro with Mavericks pre-installed

    Hi -
    I recently bought a new 15" MacBook Pro with Retina Display, which came pre-installed with Mavericks (10.9.0).  I want to make a bootable USB disk of the system software, and have successfly used DiskMaker X (formerly Lion DiskMaker) to make the USB boot disks for Lion and Mountain Lion.  In those cases, however, I was running earlier versions of the OSX, and downloaded the new OSX version -- Lion and Mountain Lion -- from the App Store in order to make to make the disk.  In this case, however, Mavericks was pre-installed, and I was unable to download it from the App Store (an alert said that it couldn't be installed on this computer... presumably because it was already installed).  I would apprecite any suggestions as to how I can create the boot disk without the ability to download Mavericks.  Thanks very much for any help anyone can provide.
    Shelly

    Open App Store and locate the full installer download file (5.29 GBs) for 10.9.1. Download to your computer.
    Make Your Own Mavericks, Mountain/Lion Installer
    After downloading the installer you must first save the Install Mac OS X application. After the installer downloads DO NOT click on the Install button. Go to your Applications folder and make a copy of the installer. Move the copy into your Downloads folder. Now you can click on the Install button. You must do this because the installer deletes itself automatically when it finishes installing.
        2. Get a USB flash drive that is at least 8 GBs. Prep this flash drive as follows:
    Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.
    After DU loads select your flash drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the leftside list. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
    Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list.
    Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
    Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
    Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to an hour depending upon the flash drive size.
        3. Use DiskMaker X to put your installer clone onto the USB flash drive.
    Make your own Mavericks flash drive installer using the Mavericks tool:
    You can also create a Mavericks flash drive installer via the Terminal. Mavericks has its own built-in installer maker you use via the Terminal:
    You will need a freshly partitioned and formatted USB flash drive with at least 8GBs. Leave the name of the flash drive at the system default, "Untitled." Do not change this name. Open the Terminal in the Utilities folder. Copy this command line after the prompt in the Terminal's window:
    sudo /Applications/Install\ OS\ X\ Mavericks.app/Contents/Resources/createinstallmedia --volume /Volumes/Untitled --applicationpath /Applications/Install\ OS\ X\ Mavericks.app --nointeraction
    Press RETURN. Enter your admin password when prompted. It will not be echoed to the screen so be careful to enter it correctly. Press RETURN, again.
    Wait for the process to complete which will take quite some time.
