MDM7.1 SP04 on RHEL5 - Password for sidadm doesn't authenticate

I was installing MDM7.1 SP04 and sapinst prompted me to input the password for <sid>adm.  I would provide the correct password but sapinst would fail and say incorrect password.  This was on a Red Hat 5 install and I could successfully logon as <sid>adm with the same password that I provided to sapinst.
We use VAS (Vintela Authentication Service) to validate the credentials of our named users against Active Directory but <sid>adm is a service account that is not configured to use VAS so it should be validating it's credentials locally.

This is caused by a bug in VAS.
Bug 16296
vastool: Running vastool configure pam would break symlinks on /etc/pam.conf
  or /etc/pam.d/<service files>.
My workaround was to have VAS uninstalled/configured, run sapinst to complete my MDM7.1 install, and then have VAS reinstalled.  The correction to this bug has not been released as of July 6, 2010.
Hope this helps.  It drove me nuts for five weeks trying to get sapinst to work, when it really had nothing to do with SAP or Red Hat.

  • I cannot access my old email address anymore, however I have used it for my apple ID and now I want to delete it because the account has never been verified in the first place so my password for it doesn't work. What do I do?

    I cannot access my old email address anymore, however I have used it for my apple ID and now I want to delete it because the account has never been verified in the first place so my password for it doesn't work. So when I want to download apps I have to sign in with apple id but I can't so I made a new one, However I can't seem to be able to delete the old one. What do I do?

    You can't merge Apple IDs.  You also can't cancel (delete) and existing ID, you can only choose to stop using it.
    If your old ID was compromised and you can no longer access it, you'll have to contact Apple for assistance.  Go to https://expresslane.apple.com ; click 'See all products and services' at the bottom of the page. In the next page click 'More Products and Services, then 'Apple ID'. In the next page select 'Other Apple ID Topics' then then 'Apple ID account Security’.

  • Username and password for Windows doesn't work for Safari

    I just installed Safari 3.0.3 for windows under WindowsXP on local machine. But I have problem access local IIS.
    Here is what I did:
    1. type http://localhost in Safari
    2. I get a pop up login window says "To view this page, you need to log in to area localhost on localhost:80",
    3. I entered my username and password to Windows, then "Enter"
    4. The pop up window comes back, it says "the name and password entered for are localhost on localhost:80 is incorrect."
    I don't see this problem in IE or Firefox on the same machine. In Firefox, it pops a similar window ask for username and password, I entered the same username and password to Windows, it works. But in Safari, it doesn't.
    I am wondering if anyone knows how to solve this problem. thanks.

    Hi,
    i've couple of ideas that might help...
    1:
    just wandering are either of you guys accessing the internet via a proxy server? if so i suspect that Safari is not by bypassing local addresses and hitting the proxy server first.
    if this is the case, Safari should respect the same settings that IE does, so try setting IE and/or FF to bypass the proxy for local address/servers - and see if Safari now works...
    2:
    also, the text box that ask's you for your password, does it say on it somewhere, something like, "password will be sent clear" or "password will be sent encrypted"
    i seem to get a similar problem, but with accessing our work ISA server, my localhost is fine btw. Anyway it might be the case the safari is trying to send a clear text password to an encrpyted password request or vica-verca (sp?) - soooo try setting your IIS to accept clear/basic authentation as well at NT Auth/Encrypted
    ok, hope that helps, and make sense

  • When trying to update apps it asks for account password but it doesn't show my account. Help!

    When trying to update apps it asks for account password but it doesn't show my account ID, it shows my dad's. How can I fix this so I can sign in?

    It sounds like the apps were purchased using your dads account, so they will have to be updated using that account.

  • I am trying to change the Apple ID on my old iPhone 5c but it wants a password for an old Apple ID with and email that doesn't exist anymore

    MMy old iPhone 5c is wanting a password for logging into my apple account. The problem is that the email address its tied to doesn't exist anymore. I changed the email to a different one. But can't figure out how to change the email address on the phone to the new email address.

    The fact that the email address doesn't exist anymore doesn't matter. As far as the Apple ID is concerned, the email address is just a user name. As long as you know the password you used, it should be fine.

  • I changed my email address for my Apple ID but my phone doesn't recognize my new email it keeps asking for my password for my old email

    I changed my email address for my Apple ID. When I want to use iCloud my iPhone doesn't seem to recognize my new email it keeps asking for my password for my old email. I can't update the new address it keeps defaulting to my old one.

    Hello TirEoghain,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    First I would like you to try the instructions below to sign out of your iCloud account, and then sign in with your new Apple ID.
    iOS 6 and later: Go to Settings > iCloud.
    If you signed out before changing your Apple ID, enter your current Apple ID to sign in. The data from your iCloud account will download to your device.
    If you're still signed in with your previous Apple ID:
    Scroll down and tap Delete Account. Depending on what iCloud options are turned on, you'll be asked to confirm that you want to delete data from your device. To confirm, tap Delete. (If you're using iOS 7 and have Find My iPhone turned on, you'll be asked to enter the password for your previous Apple ID. Enter the password, then tap Turn Off.) The data will be deleted from your device, but not from iCloud.
    Enter your current Apple ID to sign in. The data from your iCloud account will download again to your device.
    Apple ID: What to do after you change your Apple ID
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5796
    Change your Apple ID to the Apple ID you used previously. You shouldn't need to verify the email address.
    Go to Settings > iCloud. Complete these steps only if the Find My [Device] setting is turned on:
    Scroll down and tap Delete Account, then tap Delete to confirm.
    Tap “Keep on My [Device]” or “Delete from My [Device].” In either case, your data remains in iCloud and will be updated on your device when you sign in to iCloud again.
    Enter the password for your previous Apple ID.
    Change your Apple ID to the new email address that you want to use. You'll need to verify the email address.
    Return to Settings > iCloud and sign in with your new Apple ID.
    iOS 7: If you're asked for the password to your previous Apple ID when signing out of iCloud

  • Firefox for android doesn't load all my passwords and corrupts bookmarks

    Firefox for Android doesn't load all my passwords on my tablet (Lenovo).
    Also, syncing corrupts my bookmarks on my desktop and laptop by inserting bookmarks which I have deleted days ago..
    It syncs through all three devices and I know that it syncs because when I sync from my desktop, all three devices have the same time-stamp of when they synced.
    It seems as though, if you have two usernames/passwords for the same login address, such as 2 Gmails - there is no dropdown which shows both emails/passwords from which to choose from.
    This is all very frustrating, especially when I'm out and only have my tablet and I need to login somewhere when I'm with a client, and I can't login because Firefox/Android doesn't show my login info or the bookmark that I need is not there, because my bookmarks are corrupted after a sync.
    I have lost clients because of this.

    Hi modularbase.
    I understand that there are some issues with sync between three devices. Specifically, there is an issue with corrupt bookmarks and passwords that are not stored.
    Please make sure these settings are set:
    * [[Control whether Firefox automatically fills in forms with your information]] * [[Usernames and passwords are not saved]]
    * [[Using Master Password on Firefox for Android]]- the password manager addon for mobile devices may benefit in this situation.
    However on mobile, specifically for Gmail signin, accounts.google.com can store a few mail accounts, however you would have to add an account by clicking on "Sign in with a different account". In Firefox, passwords are stored by website in the password manager.

  • Everytime I open my computer it says my server doesn't recognize my password for my account US holidays. How do I do to fix this pop-up?

    Everytime I open my computer it says my server doesn't recognize my password for US holidays. How do I fix?

    Thank you but I guess I wasn't too clear. The link to the bugzilla information is about a very bad update that can NOT be trusted and if you read it the Mozilla folks hard blocked it and took legal action against whomever was sending it out.
    The pop up I keep getting I can not trace who or where it is from. So on two unrelated matters I 1) have this non stop update that keeps popping up and 2) saw an article about a bad Firefox update that had been blocked. I put the two together and thought maybe my pop up was what the article was about and how can I tell if it is malice or a real FF update? Clear as mud now? lol

  • Tried to restore from backup but it's asking for my iCloud password for an email address that doesn't exist anymore. What do I do?

    I had my phone replaced today and have tried to restore from the backup I made this morning. It didn't restore properly so I wanted to try again but I can't as it asks for my iCloud password for a non-existant email account. I changed my iCloud email about 6 months ago but my phone still thinks that is the correct email and I can't change it, can't reset my phone, can't do anything. What do I do?

    The fact that the email address doesn't exist anymore doesn't matter. As far as the Apple ID is concerned, the email address is just a user name. As long as you know the password you used, it should be fine.

  • How can I get FIREFOX to store password for the public library, since it doesn't ask me when I go to that site ?

    My password at a particular website was changed recently, so I
    removed that site from the list of saved passwords in Firefox
    manager. Now, when I visit that site, FIREFOX doesn't ask me
    to save the password for this site.
    WHY ?

    The website may be using autocomplete=off to prevent Firefox from saving the name and password.
    You can remove autocomplete=off with a bookmarklet to make Firefox save the name and password.
