  • Install Directory 5.2P4 as non root user.

    I want to install Sun Directory Server 5.2 p4 on solaris 9 as non root user?
    Is there a supported way of doing this. I dont want any of the files for directory owned by root.
    The reason is that there is a very strict access control method implemented in their environment.
    The message i get is
    $ ./setup
    arning: You are not logged on as root. Unless you are logged on as root,
    information required to upgrade or uninstall this product will not be saved in
    the system registry. This will adversely affect future upgrades/reinstalls as
    well as the ability to perform a successful uninstallation. Manual cleanup
    after uninstallation may be required in certain cases.
    Press Enter.

    If you just want as said:
    I dont want any of the files for directory owned by root.then its possible with DS5.2 P4 on solaris:
    1. become root user and start setup to install the DS5.2P4 software.
    2. When the setup application asks for server uid /server group id, give the non-root userid and group.
    When the setup is finished ns-slapd process is started automatically. The only problem is that you have to be root user to re-start the ns-slapd daemon from the command shell. But the files are owned by the non-root user always as you required.
    However this will not work if you want to restart the DS from the java GUI console. (however there is a workaround to do this).

  • Terminal and Root user

    Hi, I am new to Mac, just bought a Macmini.
    1. I was trying to lanch multiple Terminal session, it seems I can not. Can I run multiple terminal or xterm etc?
    2. How do I switch to root, or what is the default root password? I was saying there are some process under root account.
    I am an Unix guys for years.
    Thanks a lot.
    Howard

    1. I was trying to lanch multiple Terminal session, it seems I can not. Can I run multiple terminal or xterm etc?
    you just press command +N and it will open a new terminal shell. You can run many processes ontop of each other in different shells.
    2. How do I switch to root, or what is the default root password? I was saying there are some process under root account.
    There is no default root password, you have to enable and create the root password. This is easy to do use the following command.
    sudo passwd root
    Then to change to root in your terminal use the command
    su
    However in most cases you don't need to login to your terminal as root as you can just use the 'sudo' command.

  • User's Desktop locked out and root user can't fix it

    check this out:
    I've got a user on this machine that can't save anything to her desktop. The folder behaves like she has no write permissions, but a quick ls -al shows that the folder is owned by her, and her user has permissions to rwx . Even stranger, when I sudo su and try to issue a chmod for that folder, root is denied permission to do so. Stop me if I'm crazy, but isn't root God? Last time I checked, on a *nix based system, root can do anything it wants.
    :/Users/xxxxxx root# chmod 755 Desktop/
    chmod: Desktop/: Operation not permitted
    yep...even though I'm root...not allowed....
    even stranger
    drwx------ 42 xxxxxx xxxxxx 1428 Nov 19 22:43 Desktop
    and the user xxxxxx can't even write to the folder even though the
    user has permission to....

    yes, it was nailed for gutbunny, but this did not nail it for me. situation: new 32 GB USB flash drive that was allowed to go to sleep with mac book pro 15" 2.33 using mac os 10.4.11. it woke up with no permissions to write to owner or admin user or root. did the following:
    GeoG5-2:/Volumes/DiskGO george$ sudo chflags nouchg .
    chflags: .: Read-only file system
    chflags: .: Read-only file system
    GeoG5-2:/Volumes/DiskGO george$ pwd

    drwxrwxrwx 1 george george 16384 Feb 15 08:26 DiskGO stuff
    short answer is that neither admin george nor root can unlock this thumb drive. and i've tried this with lock/unlock in both positions. should i send it back to the mfgr for replacement?

  • How to create a domain for a non-root user using the JES installer

    Some questions have been circulating on what are the steps to create a whole domain configuration using a non-root user. Here is one method that you can try....
    - Login as user "testuser", all operations are using the user I want to start the whole domain with
    - cd to the testuser home directory and created apptest (mkdir apptest)
    -created domain
    /opt/SUNWappserver/appserver/bin/asadmin create-domain adminuser admin adminport 4849 --domaindir /testuser/apptest testdomain
    Please enter adminpassword>adminadmin
    Please enter adminpassword again>adminadmin
    Please enter the master password>adminadmin
    Please enter the master password again>adminadmin
    - created nodeagent
    /opt/SUNWappserver/appserver/bin/asadmin create-node-agent user admin port 4849 password adminadmin agentdir /testuser/apptest testnode
    Please enter the master password>adminadmin
    - Start the domain
    /opt/SUNWappserver/appserver/bin/asadmin start-domain domaindir /testuser/apptest user admin testdomain
    Please enter password>adminadmin
    Please enter the master password>adminadmin
    Domain testdomain started.

    Command create-instance executed successfully.
    - start instance
    /opt/SUNWappserver/appserver/bin/asadmin start-instance --user admin i1
    Please enter password>adminadmin
    Command start-instance executed successfully.

    And this can be used to the incident priority (same technique can be used for problems):
    private int GetIncidentPriority(EnterpriseManagementGroup emg)
    try
    //Get the incident settings class
    ManagementPackClass mpc = emg.EntityTypes.GetClass(new Guid("613c9f3e-9b94-1fef-4088-16c33bfd0be1"));
    //Get the emo for the incident settings
    EnterpriseManagementObject emo = emg.EntityObjects.GetObject<EnterpriseManagementObject>(mpc.Id, ObjectQueryOptions.Default);
    //Get the priority maxtrix and convert to XML
    if (emo[mpc, "PriorityMatrix"].Value != null && emo[mpc, "PriorityMatrix"].Value.ToString() != "")
    string sMatrixXML = emo[mpc, "PriorityMatrix"].Value.ToString();
    XmlDocument xmlDoc = new XmlDocument();
    xmlDoc.LoadXml(sMatrixXML);
    //Get the guid strings for impact and urgency (note - xml goes by urgency then impact)
    string sUrgencyGuid = "04b28bfb-8898-9af3-009b-979e58837852";
    string sImpactGuid = "11756265-f18e-e090-eed2-3aa923a4c872";
    foreach (XmlNode urgencynode in xmlDoc.ChildNodes[0].ChildNodes)
    if (urgencynode.Attributes.Count == 1 && urgencynode.Attributes["Id"].Value.ToString().ToLower() == sUrgencyGuid)
    foreach (XmlNode impactnode in urgencynode.ChildNodes)
    if (impactnode.Attributes.Count == 1 && impactnode.Attributes["Id"].Value.ToString().ToLower() == sImpactGuid)

  • Using terminal to connect to localhost:8888

    I have mysql installed and im using terminal to connect to localhost:8888 but its not working
    mysql -h localhost:8888 -u root
    What am I doing wrong?
    thanks in advance

    I think you cannot ssh to your machine as root if you didn't enable the root user on your computer (it isn't enabled by default and you shouldn't, unless you have a very good reason to do so).
    If you just need a webserver for local testing of webpages you can use MAMP. If you do, simply enter
    /Applications/MAMP/Library/bin/mysql -u root -p
    It then asks you for your password (root) and you're done (the mysql root user has nothing to do with your systems root user). You can also use phpMyAdmin from the MAMP startpage.
    That's the way I do it here and it works flawlessly. The latest MAMP comes with PHP 5.2.6 and MySQL 5.0.41. Place your pages inside /Applications/MAMP/htdocs/someFolder and then you can access them via http://localhost:8888/someFolder. Use localhost:8889 as your MySQL host in your scripts with user root/password root.
    Most paths in MAMP are hardcoded, so you have to install it in /Applications (or place an alias of the MAMP folder there).
    Hope it helps.

  • Menus in LXDE, only root user has them

    So I go through "Beginner's Guide" and get to the part about "Choose and install a graphical interface".
    I want LXDE so I try to follow directions in wiki article for "LXDE",
    installing group lxde and other items as they are suggested.
    Now
    as root user I can start LXDE by issuing from command line
    xinit /usr/bin/startlxde
    and I get LXDE running OK with menus populated with the few applications I have so far.
    Problem:
    As a non-root user, I start LXDE by issuing from command line
    xinit /usr/bin/startlxde
    but the only menu items I get are "Run" (which does nothing) and "Log Out" with does offer me a log-out window.
    I suspect a file exists somewhere that root user can find and use
    but
    non-root user either cannot find it or doesn't have sufficient permissions.
    Ideas? Advice?
    Thanks.
    Last edited by llsyblanket (2012-09-09 03:11:24)

    We need more information. How much of the wiki did you do? Did you do this part?
    After the installation finishes, copy three files to ~/.config/openbox as instructed by pacman:
    Place menu.xml, rc.xml and autostart in ~/.config/openbox
    They can be found in /etc/xdg/openbox
    As the user of interest
    mkdir -p ~/.config/openbox
    cp /etc/xdg/openbox/menu.xml /etc/xdg/openbox/rc.xml /etc/xdg/openbox/autostart ~/.config/openbox
    Did you do this part?
    If not using a display manager you would like to add
    export DESKTOP_SESSION=LXDE
    to your ~/.bash_profile in order xdg-open to function properly.
    Do you have a .xinitrc file in your user/home directory?
    To start LXDE from the command line without a ~/.xinitrc:
    $ xinit /usr/bin/startlxde
    If ~/.xinitrc already exists this will not work.

  • Non-root user can't start Apache on port 443

    Today I've been attempting to get SSL working for my Oracle Applications 11i (11.5.10.2) installation and I just hit a small problem. I've followed all of the Oracle literature I've come across, which instructed me to create a new (non-root) user to own the database tier and the applications tier. I've also followed the instructions for configuring SSL ([Doc 123718.1|https://metalink2.oracle.com/metalink/plsql/f?p=130:14:6976756808231635106::::p14_database_id,p14_docid,p14_show_header,p14_show_help,p14_black_frame,p14_font:NOT,123718.1,1,1,1,helvetica]) and the SSL wizard in OAM defaults to the standard HTTPS port (443). However, because 443 is a privileged port, a non-root user cannot bind to it. In other words, the Oracle literature itself has led me to an impossible situation. This is what I see in the Apache error log:
    [Fri May 15 15:05:03 2009] [crit] (13)Permission denied: make_sock: could not bind to port 443
    At this point, I see two choices:
    1. Run the application tier services as root.
    2. Change the SSL port to something greater than 1024 (i.e. 4443).
    I'm leaning towards option #2, since option #1 negates the advantage of using a non-root user to begin with. Does anyone have any other suggestions? Does Oracle have any recommendations for this scenario?

    Hi,
    You just need to start Apache as root (not all the application services). For Option 1, the application tier files should be owned by applmgr/oracle user (not root), and for Option 2, you do not need to change the port (though it is valid option). Just follow the steps in the following document.
    Note: 356080.1 - How to run Apache on Port 80 in Apps 11i
    https://metalink2.oracle.com/metalink/plsql/ml2_documents.showDocument?p_database_id=NOT&p_id=356080.1
    BTW, this is mentioned in the document "if you have chosen port 443 (or any port under 1024) for your SSL port, you will have to start Apache as root".
    Regards,
    Hussein

  • Running as non-root user

    How do I run the application server instance as non-root user on port <= 1024?
    I am using Sun One Application Server 7.0
    Thanks in advance
    Sri.

    Two options:
    1) Start an instance using the root user, but configure the instance to switch to a non-root user upon startup. Use the "User" directive in the init.conf file of an instance to specify the user
    http://docs.sun.com/source/816-7155-10/crinit.html#17116
    You should also see the "Run As" setting of an instance in the administrative GUI.
    2) Via the ndd command, you can set the smallest non-priveleged port number. See ndd documentation concerning the following setting:
    tcp_smallest_nonpriv_port
    Once you make the ndd setting, you can use a non-root user to listen on a port number that is equal to or greater than the value of the tcp_smallest_nonpriv_port setting.

  • Unable to install update 10.1.12 over 10.1.10 on MacOSX 10.9.5, error 1301 , even using root user as suggested

    Acrobat X Pro 10.1.10 has some problems since I installed MacOSX Mavericks (it refused to use a Gemalto certificat for signatures). I tried to upgrade it to 10.1.12. But was update is impossible to install (error 1301). I re-installed Acrobat Pro, as suggested. It did'nt fix the problem.  Then I tried to update with root user permissions (as also suggested by Adobe).  Still unsuccesfull, ever the same 1301 error.

    This seems like a corrupt image.
    Try to download this again and doublecheck that you are selecting the correct OS.
    Otherwise ask Oracle to ship the DVD's/CD's.

  • Empty the trash using Terminal on install DVD?

    iMac doesn't boot up - stuck on grey screen with spinning wheel, tried all the suggestions.
    Thought a reinstall of Snow Leopard using the Install DVD would work. And of course I don't have enough space to do so...
    This is what I have so far using Terminal via the install disc:
    cd /Volumes
    ls
    .Trashes   Mac OS X Install Disc 1   Macintosh HD
    cd "Macintosh HD"
    It then brings up all the files on my Mac HD but I'm not sure where to find the Trash and how to empty it :/
    Apparently I can also install and boot from a USB but I'm not sure how that works either... help me please

    I'd suggest getting an external hd.  Install the os to the external hd.  Do it this way you are less likely to loose your valuable data.
    You need
    ls -a
    to see hidden files.  I do
    ls -laF
    to remove a empty directory you need
    rmdir
    to remove a file you need
    rm
    The files are not recoverable.  All deletes are final.
    I recommand
    rm -i
