Systemd access to /dev when logged in through ssh

I have user "X" logged in through SLIM and proper permissions to /dev devices are granted. When I log in as the same user "X" through SSH, I can't access /dev devices.
This prevents me from running emulators and sound applications through SSH, which is a PITA since the machine in question is a HTPC dedicated to running XBMC.
Any way to grant same permissions to SSH users as X sessions?

I've been doing some digging on this, apparently display managers make sure the logged in session gets a "seat" from systemd. As long as you have a logged in X session, SSH sessions will also inherit the permissions from that seat.

Some apps revert to english when logged-in through qingy

Hi,
I have all the programs I normally use configured in spanish. Yesterday I started testing some login managers to replace kdm, which is the one I've been using so far. I found qingy and after some checks I think I will continue using it. But if I use it instead of kdm, some apps (firefox, claws-mail, oppenoffice, thunar...) start in english. It seems that only the gtk apps have this strange bahaviour, because konqueror or amsn still appear in spanish.
This happens only if I use the openbox menu, if I start an xterm terminal and launch the apps from the command line, they appear in spanish.
Also, I don't know if this is the cause of the problem, I have one defunct X process:

I get an access denied error when logging into extension builder 2.1 on Flash Builder 4.6

I get an access denied error when logging into extension builder. The error is: You are not eligible to use CSIDE1 services due to the Service Eligibility Requirements.. Very frustrating since there is no other option than to read the adobe legal docs.
Before this started happening I was prompted to put in my birthday (WHO KNOWS WHY ADOBE NEEDS MY BIRTHDAY). I filled it in wrong and now this....
PLEASE HELP

Ok this problem is fixed.
Info for anyone else who faces this problem.
Apparently when adobe designed the extension builder installer package, they decided to get cute and try to figure out what version of the software, the extension builder package files should be installed into. So if you have FB4, FB4.6, and FB.7 there is no telling where it will go. Also if you try moving these folders somewhere else out of the applications directory, the installer will still find them on the system. I finally figured this out by watching my system log and seeing
11/22/13 12:13:46.258 AM cp[70909]: Cannot make directory /Applications/Adobe Flash Builder 4.6/Adobe Flash Builder 4.6.app
Location: /Users/myuser/Downloads/Adobe Flash Builder 4.6-adobegarbage/plugins/com.adobe.cside.ui_2.1.0.201304282312/icons: No such file or directory
After removing every single instance of places the package installer was trying to use. It finally resolved to the correct FB4.6 location. Why adobe could'nt spend a little extra time add a destination selector in the package installer is beyond me, but hey i only wasted 3 days trying to figure this out.... Sadly it isnt the first time i've wasted copius amounts of time fighting Flashbuilder problems.
Halligrimur, thank you for your help. It did lead to me solving the problem.

Third party application forcing java stack to restart when logged in through SSO

Hi
We have APW Third party application installed on Enterprise portal 7.4.
When we tried to login APW portal through SSO it forces Java stack services to restart.If we use APW directly without SSO it works fine.
Can you help me tto resolve the issue.

Hi Manish,
Please check the configuration once agian about the third party connection and the portal.
Also provide the "dev_server0" which under in directory /usr/sap/SID/J00/work and default trace which under in “/usr/sap/SID/J00/j2ee/cluster/server0/log" to analyze the issue. There is some other tool as well to check the issue using "httpwatch" log tool. But, mostly issue can be identified in dev_server0 or defalut trace".
Thanks,
Brindavan

OEL 6 install - invalid credentials when logging in through web client

I've installed 11g XE on Oracle Enterprise Linux 6.1, seems to be running fine and listener is up. I can successfully log into SQLPlus using sys as sysdba via oracle user, but when I try to run APEX or QuickStart or RCU using the same credentials, I get "invalid credentials". I'm trying to get full FMW install and obviously need RCU to build schemas, so I'm stuck. Any advice would be appreciated.

Hello,
FMW does indeed install and run on top of XE as long as you set character set and parameters appropriatelyWhere do you adjust that charset? It should be FMW, not XE...
I can't get into APEX for example as SYSWhat do you mean with "APEX" in that context? The APEX Administration would have "ADMIN" as default account, using the same password you assigned in the installation wizard.
If you refer to the "Get Started"-URL (http://127.0.0.1:8080/apex/f?p=4950), this is an XE-specific APEX application that doesn't use APEX authentication, but database user authentication instead. For this application, your SYS password should work, as it's actually exactly the same authentication you get for your command line.
Perhaps it would help to know which URL you are calling and which value you enter for username. Note that "SYS AS SYSDBA" would not be a valid username (because it includes the role), whereas just "SYS" is okay.
The one thing RCU, APEX, etc. have in common is that they're web clients.XE uses the so called "Embedded PL/SQL Gateway" hosted by the database internal XDB HTTP Server by default. Though a web server, it's not a real client to the database, as it doesn't connect external. The only external part is the HTTP communication, but this seems to work fine since you didn't report that you don't get the login screen for APEX...

Cannot access Story Plus when logged to Creative Cloud

Hello
I have opened Story Free from my Creative Cloud Dashboard. Up the top of the screen there is a button called Upgrade which I assume will allow me to open Story Plus.
But when I click this it goes to the Adobe Store where I am asked if I want to purchase Story Plus. I thought that this was part of Creative Cloud and should not need to be purchased again.
How do I open and use Story Plus in Creative Cloud without needing to purchase it?

You should not be directed to the Adobe Store for purchase since you are a paid subscriber to the Creative Cloud.
Not quite sure what you mean by my Creative Cloud Dashboard, but am assuming you mean the Creative Cloud Apps page at https://creative.adobe.com/apps.
From the Creative Cloud Apps page you can click on the Learn More link for Story Plus. The experience is different depending on whether or not you are signed in or with your Adobe ID:
If you are not signed in then Learn More takes you to the Adobe Story Product Page at http://www.adobe.com/go/storyinfo.
If you are signed in then Learn More takes you to the Adobe Story Landing Page at https://story.adobe.com/.
From the Adobe Story Landing Page at https://story.adobe.com you can sign in Sign In, Join or Subscribe. If you are a Creative Cloud paid subscriber then you can just Sign In.
Clicking Sign In should bring up an overlay dialog that accepts your Adobe ID and signs you into the application.
Let me know where your experience is different and perhaps post screenshots.

The specified domain either does not exist or could not be contacted when logging in through RDP. Server 2012/SBS 2007

I have a server 2012 machine running RDP and a PDC running SBS 2007. Every once a while all my users get an error saying "The specified domain either does not exist or could not be contacted". After waiting ~5-10 minutes the issue resolves itself.
I believe it has something to do with the syncing between the two but am not 100% sure. Anyone know a fix or what I should look at?
Jerry T

Hi Jerry,
Thank you for posting in Windows Server Forum.
After referring to your error, it seems to have DNS issue in your case which can’t locate the DC. Please check the setting related to DNS issue as following. (Below quoted from
this thread)
If this is the case, I would recommend proceeding like that:
1. Make sure that each DC has only one IP address in use and ONLY one NIC card enabled (Other NICs should be disabled)
2. Make sure that public DNS servers are configured as DNS forwarders and not in IP settings of DCs
3. Choose a healthy DC / DNS server and make each DC point to it as primary DNS server
4. Make each DC / DNS server point to its private IP address as secondary DNS server
5. Make sure that needed ports for AD replication are opened: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb727063.aspx
6. Check your DNS zones and remove manually all obsolete / unused DNS records for DCs
Once done, run ipconfig /registerdns and restart netlogon on each DC you have.
On the client computer, run ipconfig /flushdns and check again.
Hope it helps!
Thanks.

Google talk password not working when logging in through iMessage

I'm trying to login to Google Talk using my iMessage account, but I keep getting a message that says my password for Google Talk is wrong. Consequently I get emails from Google saying a failed attempt to login to Google Talk has occurred. What is the solution??

Did you recently change your Google account so that "less secure" app authentication is turned off or setup two-step verification? You may have done this as part of a recent "Google Security Checkup."
If so, you'll need to re-enable less secure apps, or if you use two-step verification, setup a single application password for Google Talk.

User settings to access network when logged on as service/batch

Hi.
We have been running Oracle Remote Agent (running external jobs on other host) on some linux-distros and have now started to do it on Windows as well.
But when we have setup everything properly, we get an 'Access denied' when trying to access the network from the Remote Host.
The way it works, in the database, you set up a credential with a user name and password. This information is then sent to the ETL (Remote Agent) which then starts the process as the user supplied in credentials.
So the service it self is running as Local Service and then starts a process as another user. Technically, how this is done on Windows I don't know...
Anyhow, the process starts fine and if we are not trying to access the network, it works fine.
But as soon as we are trying to access a network share using UNC path (\\192.168.1.10\share\directory), we get an 'Acces is denied'
The user we are using is an administrator. When doing a desktop login, this user can access the share without any problem.
Is there any other settings/policy/property the user must have to be able to access the network when logged on but not from the desktop?
Cheers
Richard

Have you checked the security logs on 192.168.1.10?
You should see the entries showing what account is attempting to log on through a network connect. You may need to grant the User Right for "Allow Access from Network" and you may be having basic folder permission errors.
I'm curious if the process is using the machine account to hit the share or if it's the user account you're starting the process with.

Windows 2008 R2 intermittently getting access denied when logging in

Hi,
I recently built 2 new Virtual Machines. They both run on Hyper-V (version 6.2x).
One is Windows 2008 R2 standard and the other Windows 2008 R2 Datacenter. These are both remote desktop servers.
These are both connected to a domain.
The domain controller is linux/samba based, this will mimic the Windows NT4 style domain controller environment.
Within each Virtual Machine I have a remote desktop users group, that is a staff group.
Intermittently users get an access denied error when logging on. This only happens when logging on as domain users.
If this happened all the time, I might think the machine needed to be removed and re-added to the domain but as it's intermittent, I don't see the trust relationship as the problem.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Hi,
Thanks for your post in Windows Server Forum.
Before providing you some information, I would like to get some more information to resolve your issue.
- Have you notice any specific error when trying to remote login?
- Did you check GPO setting option “Allow log on through Remote Desktop Services”
As group policy and the user group are interrelated with each other. There are 2 types of user rights.
(1) Logon rights (2) Privileges
These two plays an important part in allowing an RDP session to the server. Also need to check in GPO Setting for more option.
a. Allow log on through Remote Desktop Services : Users\Group must be added for Remote Session
b. Deny log on through Remote Desktop Services : Users\Group must not be added for Remote Session
For checking the setting in GPO follow below path:
- Start > Run >gpedit.msc
- Computer Configuration\Windows Settings\Security Settings\Local Policies\User Rights Assignment
For more information, refer beneath article.
“Allow Logon through Terminal Services (Remote Desktop Services)” group policy and “Remote Desktop Users” group.
http://blogs.technet.com/b/askperf/archive/2011/09/09/allow-logon-through-terminal-services-group-policy-and-remote-desktop-users-group.aspx
Hope This Helps!
Thanks.

Hi lynniewigs,
This is a common concern among Android and I-phone user, and one of the drawbacks to using a smart phone. We lose so much privacy. Our phones become cameras into our homes for us to be spied on.
I don't know what type of phone you have, if it is even a smart phone, but here is an example of an application that you can use to determine which applications are accessing your information and sending it out.

Google just recently revamp their permissions geared to hide invasive applications that spy and send out your information without your knowledge. Report says be aware of what your Android app does - CNET
Please continue to be mindful of the apps you download and the permissions you give.
