We have a server which running Windows Server 2003. I have a password problem with it.
It sometimes does not accept my password when I try to log in. When I restart the server, it strangly begins accepting my password that is same as I tried before.
My pasword has a dot(.) char and it has no non-ASCII or local chars. So what can the problem be?

We recently upgraded a PC from Windows 7 to Windows 10 (1909 18363.815). Internally if we RDP to the machine, we enter our domain username and password. We are then brought to the PC and once again prompted for a password. If it’s a new user to that PC, the user will have to select “Other User” and then enter their username and password again. We’ve tried everything here:

Nothing seems to fix the issue. Its only happening on 2 out of 50 PC’s.
I've had a postfix(SASL) mail server running well for a long time with no problems. However recently I've installed vsftp to allow users to login and download files.
I created a linux user with a generic username/password which I thought didn't matter as I had disabled ssh login and wasn't too concerned if anyone had logged into the ftp account (read-only access). However what I hadn't realised was that several spammers have brute forced entry (logging into SASL) and sending emails.
Is there any way to disable the linux user for mail but keep the credentials the same for vsftp?
Try
usermod -s /bin/false username
I ended up removing the linux user and adding the user as a user for vsftp. This then still allowed the username/password to work and disabled the intruder from using the server as a spam server. Issue resolved :).
I am installing phpMyAdmin on a CentOs server and I have installed it successfully, from what I can tell. I can at least travel to the index page where it asks for my username and password. When I try to log in with any combination of default usernames and passwords, I receive this error #2003 Cannot log in to the MySQL server.
I followed this guide (http://www.krizna.com/centos/how-install-phpmyadmin-centos-6/) to help me install phpMyAdmin. From researching this, I am under the impression that after you log in with the default username:root and password:null, you will be able to change the username and password. I tried changing the config.inc.php value AllowNoPassword to TRUE, but that also didn't seem to help. How do I set a username and password so I can successfully log into phpMyAdmin?
I figured out the issue. Only some of the required software was installed on the server when I was assigned to the project. After installing mysql-server, I was able to change the root password for mysql. I changed the config file for phpmyadmin to receive the log in data through html not cookies or config. Everything works great now, I hope this helps at least one other individual.
I have made database of 10 users and password. Now I want to prompt a dialog box on lan computer in which they have to enter username and password given by me whenever they open browser every time for accessing internet.
How can I do so?
I have also installed a squid proxy.
Maybe this will help: http://wiki.squid-cache.org/ConfigExamples/Authenticate/Mysql (assuming you have a MySQL database).
You can use just basic username and password authentication. Since you are only talking about 10 users.

I have Configured LDAP Authentication for my Linux Machines. The LDAP Server is Novell eDirectory. The LDAP Users are able to login into the machine. But when i am issuing passwd command it is asking LDAP password then asking to give me new password. After that i am getting a message saying that all the authentication tokens are successfully updated.
But when i try to login with the new password into the machine it is not allowing but when i tried with the old password it is allowing me to loign. Even the eDirectory password also didn't got changed?
What's wrong i am doing?
Thanks and regards,
Sunny.
Do you have access to the eDirectory server you are pointing at? If so, go to iMonitor (https://serverIP:8030/nds/trace) and login, and then in Trace settings (box in the bar with tick marks, and lightning bolts) and clear all, and then enable LDAP tracing.
Refresh and go to Trace Live, then do the password change and look at the trace event from the LDAP server perspective. Likely something will be revealed there.
