One user cannot logon to multi-user iMAC

I have am iMAC running latest Snow leopard with multiple user account. All accounts can logon but one.
when I try and logon with the offending account , the password is accepted, the screen turns Blue, then goes back to the the logon screen. I suspect something is corrupted but have no idea how to diagnose.
any help is appreciated.

Hmmm. Tough problem.
Try removing and replacing the account, keeping the home folder. To do that, use System Preferences -> Accounts to delete the account. When it asks what to do with the home folder, tell it to just leave it alone. Then make a new account with the same username. It should tell you that it found a home folder with the same name, and do you want to use it with the new account. Answer yes.
Can you then log in to the account?

Mac OS X server 10.5.7 users cannot logon

Any help. I just installed Mac OS X Server and add added my users with logon details. I joined my MacBook Pro to the server using Directory Utilities and the Server is running well. I even have the users name displaying on the logon window. However, when I try to login the users, the window shakes indicating incorrect password. I have tried going over adding users, providing access rights etc. but with no success. I was successful in joining my daughter's Mac Mini to the server, but was not able to login using other users' details. Can anyone help.

My bet's on an incorrect home folder location.
First things first. Make sure that the Sharepoint for the home folders is set up correctly.
You can double check this as follows:
In server admin: Select the server name right below where it says "Available servers"
Click the file sharing tab at the top.
Click the SharePoints button and the Browse button
Click on your desired home folder location in the file browser.
Below the file browser, click on the share point tab.
Make sure "Enable Automount" is checked.
Click the edit button.
Make sure the directory is /LDAPv3/127.0.0.1
Make sure the protocol is AFP
Make sure that Use for "User home folders" is selected.
Click okay and save your changes.
Now to workgroup manager.
Select your user and click the "Home" button
Make sure that there's a home folder location selected. (ie the line is highlighted)
Click the edit button. (it looks like a pencil)
It's get a bit tricky here...
Mac OS X Server/Share Point URL:
It should look like this: afp://server.example.com/Users (assuming you're using the users folder)
Path to Home Folder:
You should ONLY have the shortname of your user here.
Full path:
It has to look like this: /Network/Servers/server.example.com/Users/shortname
Note that I've put server.example.com where you should have the domain name of your server, and shortname where you should have the actual shortname for your user.
Clear as mud?
Hope it helps.

Sbs2008 user cannot logon to win8.1pro clients

SBS2008 server with several XP clients and newly created Win8.1Pro clients
one user is able to logon to the XP clients without any problems, but is not able to logon to Win8.1Pro clients.
at least the error is as follows: no access to \\computername\RedirectedFolders\username\Desktop
errorcode 0x80070035 networkpath not found.
which is correct because it should not look for \\computername\Red.... but for \\servername\Red...
the properties for the redirectedfolders on the server are set correctly for the user as owner.
in the AD user profile is set exactly the same as other users, they have no problems logging on.
The user has administrator rights. Is also able to logon to the server without any problems.
any help is appreciated

Gotta love 8.1 I had the same problem, I found this on the forums and it fixed my problem, hope it works for you.

New windows users cannot logon to system

We recently had a Network switch failure. As a result we had to reboot the server (G5 xserve 10.4.7).
This machine is a PDC to approx 50 Windows users. All users are in and working but new users are not being allowed to login.
Looking at the samba logs shows a lot of messages where there is a forcing election with other systems (windows).
eg
Server NORTH_24 at IP 192.168.7.24 is announcing itself as a local master browser for workgroup NCS and we think we are master. Forcing election.
How can I stop this from happening and allow my new users to login??

I have changed the setting in /etc/smb.conf
os level = 8
to
os level = 255
This is suppossed to make sure this system wins all elections.
I have made sure any Windows systems were off and reset the server.
However as soon as windows systems turn back on then I start getting the following in log.nmbd :

If I turn this particular machine off, the system will start complaining about another one.
This was not happening prior to a Network switch failure and a reboot of the server.
On a good point any new users that are created can now logon to the system. I am not sure though, if that is to do with the change to the smb.conf file

ADS LogonWithAlias - cannot logon with alias user id

Hi,
We have Erec and use ADS. Now when the candidate enters their detials - such as logon id - into EREC, the SAP ERP backend generates a random user id and their logon id in put into the alias field in the SAP record (SU01) btw we use ABAP for the user administration. The candidate can then logon with their Alias into Erec and this works fine. Now when we send them an ADS form link to fill in, the signon prompy does not allow them to use the Alias to logon - only the random generated user id work. I have change the option in VA under Security Provider - Basic - BasicPasswordLoginModule=true but this has not helped it still does not work with the user alias id. I have noticed that the ADS form logon prompt is a netweaver prompt and different from the Erec logon prompt. Any ideas appreciated.

Found the error in SICF the adobe form was not set tin internet user.

User Authentication Fails,Unless Admin resets the pwd,user cannot logon.

Hi
I have a EP7 SP18 Portal .
The portal UME is Readonly Microsoft LDAP + UME Database.
I have a user named testuser which exists in Both the UME's.
the testuser of LDAP is locked through Portal User admin.
Now whenever the testuser tries to logon to portal,he gets User Authentication Failed message.
The failed logon attempt info is not reflcted in User Account details.when viewd through portal user admin.
if Administrator resets the Password of testuser in portal,then user is able to logon to the portal using this password.
Next day,again same thing happens.
what can be the reason behind this ?

Server 10.5 - Windows users cannot logon to domain

Greetings,
We are running Leopard Server 10.5.4 as an Open Directory Master and running the SMB service as a PDC for a few Windows clients. The Windows machines have joined the domain and users have been logging in and accessing their home folders and shared folders with no problems.
All of a sudden, users get an error message when logging on saying that "the domain controller is down or otherwise inaccessible." When I log onto the machine locally as an administrator I can take the computer off of the domain, restart the computer, and then rejoin the domain with no problem, but users continue to get the error.
I am puzzled as to why it can see the domain to join it, but then losses that ability when users attempt to login.
Any help is appreciated and let me know if I have left information out that could be of use.

IPhone User Cannot Logon

I am trying to enable iPhone access to a certain user. The user has already been granted with Iphone_Access global privilege. But the user is still not able to login via mobile. Username and password has been checked multiple times already. Enabling iphone=debug in dynamic trace shows:
ERROR 2014-03-03 05:50:56,123 Asia/Shanghai [SAPEngine_Application_Thread[impl:3]_31] com.redwood.scheduler.iphone.servlet.IPhoneHandler - Error during login for user: USERNAME
com.redwood.scheduler.security.api.LoginException: Not logged in
"Not Logged In" is not much help on where the problem is. Has anyone encountered this problem before? Any leads?

Hi Gerben,
I think i was able to determine the issue already. Using the iphone=debug trace, I noticed that it shows the password in plain text. In that trace file I can see that the password contains a special character "@" (at sign). This is causing the login to fail.
I believe this uncovered 3 defects:
password are shown in plain text in the stdout of iphone=debug
password with "@" sign are not properly handled
newly created users that are logging in for the first time in iPhone (and has never logged on via PC web browser) will encounter issues which is revealed in the stdout file as:
Caused by: com.sap.engine.lib.xml.parser.NestedSAXParserException: Fatal Error: com.sap.engine.lib.xml.parser.ParserException: XMLParser: Bad Attribute value: ' or " expected!(:main:, row:5, col:18)(:main:, row=5, col=18) -> com.sap.engine.lib.xml.parser.ParserException: XMLParser: Bad Attribute value: ' or " expected!(:main:, row:5, col:18)

... 30 more
Do you happen to have a test system where you can also see if this is happening on your end? I just want to isolate that this is version related.
Thank you!

TMG 2010 publishing Exchange 2010 OWA cannot change password if user must change password at first logon is set

Hi,
I have an odd issue whereby if I set "user must change password" on an AD account, the end user cannot logon, they're simply taken back to the OWA login page as if their password is incorrect.
My setup is as follows:
outer TMG -- uses a listener for email.contoso.com and is configured for no authentication.This uses a publishing rule to publish the inner TMG server. This server is not a domain member.
inner TMG - uses a listener for email.contoso.com and is configured for NLTM\kerberos negotiation with forms authentication (Windows Active Directory). This server is a domain member and use a publishing rule to publish the internal CAS. Allow users to change
password is selected in the publishing rules.
Exchange 2010 SP1 - uses integrated windows and basic authentication. Has the appropriate registry key configured to allow users to change their AD password on first logon.
I've registered an snp for "http/email.contoso.com mailserver-dc1", all SSL certificates being used are valid and my configuration used to allow users to login and change their password with "user must change password on first login"
set in AD.
If I launch a web browser on an internal server and point it to email.contoso.com I'm immediately presented with a generic Windows authentication request (similar to what's seen in ADFS) rather than the standard OWA page. No matter what I do, I cannot login
and change my password using the correct URL. However if I point my browser at
http://192.168.4.10/owa I'm prompted to login and I can change my password using the sam credentials.
The only recent changes made are:
- Disabling SSL 3.0 and enabling TLS (http://www.isaserver.org/articles-tutorials/configuration-security/improving-ssl-security-forefront-threat-management-gateway-tmg-2010-published-web-sites.html)
- Replacing the TMG listener certificates so that they now use SHA2 rather than SHA2 (certificates are trusted on each TMG server)
Looking on the outer TMG and the DC logs I can see schannel errors which I believe are related to the problem. TMG monitoring also shows "Failed connection attempt: 1907 The user'spassword must be changed before logging on for the first time"
I've checked that my inner TMG and DC are using the same certificate for server authentication and gone through this guide:
http://blogs.technet.com/b/keithab/archive/2012/02/29/setting-up-and-troubleshooting-ldaps-authentication-in-forefront-tmg-2010.aspx
If I try to use ldp.exe on the inner TMG, I get the error in the pic below
Thanks

SAPJSF user cannot log-on to the User Management Engine.

We have a newly installed PI 7.0 system.
SLDCHECK is succussful but if we go to the http://hostname:50100/sld - we are redirected to http://hostname:50100/logon/logonServlet?redirectURL=%2Fwebdynpro%2Fdispatcher%2Fsap.com%2Ftc%7Esld%7Ewd%7Emain%2FMain
When we check the default.trc file, we see the error: User "SAPJSF" is the communication user for the connection between User Management Engine and the ABAP backend system SIDCLNTxyz. This user cannot log-on to the User Management Engine.
The SAPJSF user is not locked in SU01. This user is used by the JCO providers to connect to the gateway service.
We opened Visual Administrator and navigated to Server0 -> Services -> UM Provider
We changed the password property at ume.r3.connection.master.passwd
We then restarted the ABAP and J2EE engine. But we still see this error.
Any help to solve this issue is appreciate.

Hi,
Please, refer the link below. It says you cannot logon with SAPJSF user to J2EE engine for security reasons.

How do i create one source file that feeds two users on the same pro book?

how do i create one source file/folder of photos that feeds two users on the same pro book?

Well you can do exactly the same with a folder of photos, just put in the Users/Shared folder.
Iphoto is a mite more complex than this. It's a database and so there's a bit more involved.
For iPhoto 09 (version 8.0.2) and later:
What you mean by 'share'.
If you want the other user to be able to see the pics, but not add to, change or alter your library, then enable Sharing in your iPhoto (Preferences -> Sharing), leave iPhoto running and use Fast User Switching to open the other account. In that account, enable 'Look For Shared Libraries'. Your Library will appear in the other source pane.
Any user can drag a pic from the Shared Library to their own in the iPhoto Window.
Remember iPhoto must be running in both accounts for this to work.
If you want the other user to have the same access to the library as you: to be able to add, edit, organise, keyword etc.
Quit iPhoto in both accounts. Move the Library to the Users / Shared Folder
(You can also use an external HD set to ignore permissions, a Disk Image or even partition your Hard Disk.)
In each account in turn: Double click on the Library to open it. (You may be asked to repair the Library Permissions.) From that point on, this will be the default library location. Both accounts will have full access to the library, in fact, both accounts will 'own' it.
However, there is a catch with this system and it is a significant one. iPhoto is not a multi-user app., it does not have the code to negotiate two users simultaneously writing to the database, and trying will cause db corruption. So only one user at a time, and back up, back up back up.

Multi-User Support

I have all of my photos saved on a file server in my house. I am using Photoshop Elements 11 on my desktop to catalog all of my photos. I am doing things like tagging photos and the people recogonition features.
If I install Photoshop Elements on my wife's laptop and she accesses the same photos on the file share, will she see the tags?

I don't think there is software that both has face recgnition and multi-user support. Normally, multi-user support is available in upper-end packages, while face recognition is usually available in consumer packages.
If you want true multi-user support, one such product is called Daminion.
I wonder if Adobe will catch on to this feature reqeust.
I'm sure they know there are people who want multi-user libraries. In my opinion, they choose not to add this feature because the cost to develop this feature would blow up the cost of Photoshop Elements to the point where people wouldn't buy it. Which is probably the same reason multi-user libraries are not available in Lightroom either.

Error d124 Multi user calendar

Hello,
we moved all of our users from one PO to another, both GW2012SP2. When the users now open their multi user calendar they get the error "d124".
When i open the multi-user list in a users mailbox there are entries from the old po an the new po. I tried to remove the old entries by click the Name, click Remove User, click OK to save. When i re-open the list, the removed users dont appear. Now i closed the Client, start it again and all of the removed users are shown up again in the multi-user list...
Does anyone have an idea how to remove the user in the multi-user list permamently? Or have any GW Check options to solve this?
kind regards
Benjamin

Moving in every sense of the term always leaves some loose ends like
this. This is why as much as possible we like to move POs and not the
users if we can avoid it. Basically some of the connectsions betweek
users broke because a bunch of them are still looking at the old PO, so
we need to work through those connections and fix them.

In looking this up I found I had a user in my list that was no longer in
the system and I had the same behaviour in trying to deal with it. I
realized that this was only the users I have proxied into, so I went into
my proxy list, removed the offending user, and after a restart the
problem went away. So how many of these do you need to deal with?
Before we look at the specialized GWchecks, make sure you are running a
regular set of them and checking the resulting outputs for any errors
that might point you to parts of the cleanup.

Running through the TopDown rebuild (TID 3347260 at
https://www.novell.com/support/kb/doc.php?id=3347260) and selecting the
Rebuild Indexes after doing the other parts at those levels may help.
Afterwards an Analyze/Fix of Structure & Index would be useful, checking
the results to see if it reports problems. If there are such problems,
rerun again to see that they are gone.

Sendmail dependency for multi-user milestone

I am currently setting up a CommuniGate mailserver on a Solaris 10 box . Starting the new service is hampered by sendmail running on the smtp port.
My question regards disabling sendmail services so that CommuniGate can do its own thing. The sendmail service is shown as a dependency for the multi-user milestone:

I've read the sections on dependency groupings (i.e. optional_all/none) but I'm still confused regarding the real links between services.
thanks for any clarification.....docm

If I disable sendmail, will the multi-user milestone
croak on startup? I'm reluctant to just try it, since
I'm working on a remote machine without console
access in case it does croak.No, not at all. There's a difference between administratively disabling a service and having it fail, and for a dependency to be "required" or "optional".
On this machine....
