Go to Apple Menu > System Preferences > Users & Groups.
Also you may want to consider FileVault as it provides a lot more protection for the data on your MacBook Air than just having a password. There is more information at OS X: About FileVault 2 - Apple Support

How to enable routing in Mac OS?

Hi Community,
for a server migration I need a Mac as a router. I've two NICs in a PPC G5 and I want to connect two networks over this machine. From Linux I know that the kernel must support the routing functionality and IP forwarding must be enabled. How does it works in Mac OS 10.4.x or 10.5.x?
Thanks in advance & Bye Tom

You may need to enable ip forwarding. Its disabled on my system.
$ sysctl -a -- | grep forwarding
net.inet.ip.forwarding: 0
net.inet.ip.fastforwarding: 0
net.inet6.ip6.forwarding: 0

How to enable password request for restart and shutdown?

Hi,
I'm neither a Linux nor an Arch Linux newbie, but inexperienced regarding this particular issue.
I want to enable password request for restart and shutdown and want to know if I'm mistaken, because trial and error might become to time-consuming while working on a project.
I read https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Al … o_shutdown.
$ ls -hAl /usr/bin/shutdown
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 9 Apr 22 03:02 /usr/bin/shutdown -> systemctl
If I try to run $ shutdown -hP 28 or $ shutdown -c nothings happens, I need to run $ sudo shutdown -hP 28 and $ sudo shutdown -c and type a password. That's the way I want it.
If I e.g. run $ shutdown -r now no password is needed. I want to disable this. It should behave the same way as shutdown -hP/-c behave. I want to type
$ sudo shutdown -r now or $ sudo systemctl reboot etc. and then the password should be required.
$ sudo grep -vn "#" /etc/sudoers | grep [[:blank:]]
72:root ALL=(ALL) ALL
73:rocketmouse ALL=(ALL) ALL
The user "rocketmouse" should have all permissions after typing a password, but not without typing the password.
IIUC what's written at https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Polkit, I need to edit

IOW I need to replace every yes and no etc. with auth_admin in $ grep -v lang /usr/share/polkit-1/actions/org.freedesktop.login1.policy.
Am I mistaken?

Ralf

You'll need to create a rules file which uses javascript.

// /etc/polkit-1/rules.d/10-admin-shutdown-reboot.rules
polkit.addRule(function(action, subject) {

/*...SOME_MORE_IDS_HERE...*/
// return polkit.Result.AUTH_ADMIN_KEEP;
return polkit.Result.AUTH_SELF_KEEP;

How to enable webmail in Mac OS server 10.9

Is there any way to enable or configure webmail in Mac OS server 10.9 but without installing Roundcube?

I know you'd prefer not to install Roundcube, but if you change your mind, this Roundcube installer works perfectly. Saved me a lot of grief and only takes a minute or two to run.

How to enable Services for Mac so I can use the Chinese Text Converter.

I run Firefox on my Mac, OSX 10.5.8 and when I try to access Services, ChineseTextConverter, the two choices are shaded and unavailable.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== I think this is how it's always been

Depends on the model of the Mini. If it is a 2010 or
2011, simply connect the two via an HDMI cable.
Older models will require appropriate video cables
and an analog or optical cable from the audio port
from the Mini to the TV.

I have configured a new security realm on weblogic9.2 server. I also configured a custom authentication provider. We have a requirement that after a configured period of time, the password should expire. Is there any configurable parameter that allows this?

Second Monitor: How to enable it on Mac Mini?

hey guys, my current setup is 1 screen connected via HDMI and the other i want to make use of can be connected via DVI (also supports VGA.) i ordered a mini-dvi to dvi-adapter port and it'll be arriving in a couple hours.
anyway, to do a trial run, i tried using the DVI monitor by using the Apple supplied HDMI to DVI adapter, but when i plugged the monitor in it just said "no signal" and nothing happened. i also have a VGA(for old monitor) to DVI(for newer graphics) adapter i bought some time ago, but never got the chance to use it. could it work if i connected the mini-dvi adapter to the VGA adapter and then finally plug in the DVI adapter? i hope i'm explaining this clearly. would this work if there were three adapters plugged into together?
thanks

That is good news?
Also in the Displays Preferences, if you check the box "Show displays in the menu bar"
it will give you quick menu bar access to your Display Preferences.

How do I prevent other Mac users from changing my Airport Extreme Network Name and Password within the Airport Utility?

How do I prevent other Mac users from changing my Airport Extreme Network Name and Password within the Airport Utility? My company is using an Airport Extreme in our office now and I want to prevent other employees from messing with the network/settings. Is there a way to place a password on the settings to allow only the admin to access the network name and password?

Hi - you have will have to change the device passwords on all the base stations and then don't give them to anyone except the administrators and tell them not to save them on their computers that use the older versions of the Airport Utility - for the newer versions like the mobile apps, as soon as you enter the pasword it is saved and is visible in the advanced pane along with the network password - so if anyone gets a hold of your iPad or iPhone, they can edit the whole network - I have this same issue with my networks in the office and it is inconvenient but doable - I hope this helps
