Glitch/Question of the root user

All other encountered an error of password for the root user that uses a user admin instead account?

Recently, I had to reinstall 10.11 on an iMac and went to create a startup disk. When I run sudo it asked for the root password (which is enabled) and kept saying "sorry, try again." I was sure I knew the password, but didn't so I reset the password of the root user. After the Reset Terminal still does not accept. I decided to user, my admin password and it worked.

This is how it is supposed to behave or am I missing something? (Err is human but to REALLY screw up, run sudo)

My Root user and the admin have the same password.

    Any body can help me find the log to make sure all traces of the data files that are deleted from the root to the hp - ux Server user (and the sys log has already been modified by the root user).
    So is there a way to check the database or deleted from server level to check track of log files data files.

    Is it possible to configure an alarm trigger to let me know when the ROOT account is used in vCenter or any ESXi?

    Thank you!

  • After you turn off the root of the directory utility user, I went back to the main screen and all other user accounts showed is no longer at the start, as they were before you enable the root user.  Help.  Please, I beg you.

    I have activated the user 'root '.  It was an attempt (for the sake of granddaughter age) to check its history since I am the administrator.  Realizing that this method was much more complicated than what I am capable of managing, I returned the utility program directory and disabled the user 'root '.  I thought that everything was ok, as I did not made anything while connected as user 'root '.  Instead, restart the computer, all users, including myself were no longer at the start.  The only point was a blank user name and password.  No picture.  No guest.  No user.  How to return those and I did something to cause this?

    Else you being logged in as root?

    Activation and deactivation, then root should not have caused that.

    Also, having allowed root is one of the ways you get a login screen showing only the name and the password.

    You should be able to type in your user name and password to connect.

    One time connected, check users & groups system prefs, Connection Options and make sure he's on the list of users. You will have to click on the padlock at the bottom to make changes.

  • A question for the A200 users "downgrading" to XP

    Well, I already posted on some of the problems I've had with my A200-1AX.

    I went down to XP and I had two questionmarks in the Device Manager window. (1 for the pci device and one for the audio device)

    I was told to change the good BIOS BIOS for XP. I did so and formatted the pc in order to have fresh.

    I downloaded the latest drivers, installed and after the instalation I still have the PCI device questionmark, but now I also have an 'unknown device' questionmark.

    The thing is that my laptop works very well, the sound is ok and I have no problem. So for 2 months, I simply ignore the questionmarks.

    I write just in case where someone did - he had the same problems and resolved. Maybe you can help me...

    thanx

    This PCI device with the question mark must be the turbo memory module that was designed for Vista. Unfortunately there is no driver for XP since this turbo memory module only runs under Vista (it s a function explicitly Vista).

    If you want to learn more about the module "Robson" or "Turbo Memory" then go here:

  • Questions for the new user

    I work with the first and want to learn AE and have some basic questions. I want to work with a lot of clips of 2 minutes and less.

    1. can I import clips, add effects, making mounting base while AE without entering the PP? Is there a reason not to use this workflow?

    2. is there a website dedicated to showing video effects that can be created in AE? I would like to get inspiration for some of what can be done concretely AE.

    3. What are the limitations of the work in AE? In other words, what (s) it doesn't work well with? Why use Cinema 4 d or another program if these types of effects can also be made in AE?

    Thanks in advance.

    Yes, you can to editing base in After Effects, but it is VERY inconvenient because you don't have reading in real-time and in the timeline panel, each item is placed in a separate layer (i.e. a video is placed below the following).

    Therefore, it is better to mount first, then the individual clips tool EI to add effects.

    I also recommend this (paid) training by Eran Stern, who shows how to work with the two Premiere Pro and AE and what to do better in what application.

    Compared to the 'real' 3D applications such as Cinema 4 d, the main difference is that EI does not support the actual 3D geometry, but essentially only "2D postcards" in a 3D space (over a few little extras like extruded text).

  • Question on the message: "User ${UserDisplayName} has disconnected machine ${MachineName}".

    I just wanted to clarify what means exactly this message:

    User ${UserDisplayName} has disconnected machine ${MachineName}

    This applies to both:

    1.) voluntarily disconnected from their session user?

    2.) connection to users has been slow and the sessions disconnected on its own?

    We have several users using clients of zero, who barely tolerate the slow network. They use these from home (on our network).

    I have users who are complaining of disconnects and those who are not, but I see the above message in Admin mode for both instances.

    Is someone can clarify the case above for me?

    Thank you

    Maybe a disconnection initiated use is followed by another event.    Others that I'm not sure how.

  • Root user cannot create VMS within the Resource Pool after you rename the Cluster

    Currently, vCenter manages two clusters. I renamed a single cluster and the root user seems now are not allowed to create a new Virtual Machine in resource pools to the title of the group with the changed name. I tried to change the name of the cluster to its original name... no luck.

    The root user can still create a VM under the individual cluster nodes, but not in a resource pool.

    The cluster that has not been renamed yet can be managed completely with the root user. Resource pools it allow me to create a virtual machine.

    I found this last issue and checked on each cluster node that the ACEDataRoleId is-1 for each section: http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US & cmd = displayKC & externalId = 1031192

    I am at a loss, any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!

    I think it's a bug. When I created a new data center and migrate all nodes in cluster about him, the permissions problem I was experiencing did not follow.

    Thank you for your help.

    I would prefer to re - install the software again with this new user. The reason is that if you tried to start the old Setup, it may have created files with the root user and its permissions. If you do not know what files to change permissions, but you can try to recursively. Installation on Linux should take about 10 mts in order to take this path only.

  • created by the "other" user suddenly on my logon page?

I tried to connect using the account of origin on the mac and it allowed to connect. Does anyone have an idea how it happened? I've attached a photo for reference. Thank you

    Hello

    I was encouraged to see VoP Server Explorer, but my network does not have any system to have a default root password. Can I change the root user password?

    Thank you!

    Jennifer Flanagan

    Altogether.  Just connect to the console as root and type 'passwd' to change the root password.  Be sure to keep track of what you set, because there is little recourse except in single-user mode if it goes astray.
