2225.0. "Unable to login after using WebWorker: Wrong password" by MOSDM::AORLOV (Alexey ORLOV - Radio Free Moscow) Sat May 10 1997 18:51

Hello!

I installed WebWorker on LNX 3.0.8, Digital Unix 3.2G, Oracle, Netscape
Enterprise 2.01.

I used omdba as the first user for WebWorker private desk. It worked fine. Then
I tried to login as omdba again and got "Wrong login information. Try again". I
tried to login through WebWorker interface: everything's OK. Then I removed 0:
string in /etc/ompasswd - it did not help. Then, without restoring 0: string I
tried to login through WebWorker and it worked again! (I.e. I was able to login
as omdba through WebWorker without 0: string in /etc/ompasswd file).

My omdba account has OS-Login record, I can login as omdba through UNIX login
prompt.

How can I login as omdba again?

Thank you in advance.
Alexey.

	Alexey, I guess you made a misstake with the passwords, the webworker will not change any passwords, it will only add users: www and webuser. If you enable omdba as the user you will create an oslogin for this user! so you'll have to use the os password to login. if it does not work maybe you should set the os passwors for omdba by using the unix passwd command.

	Han, That is actually what I've tried: first I tried to login using UNIX password, than I change it using passwd command and made it equal to LNX one. Does not work. Despite all above (and for instance changing UNIX password with passwd to smth. else) I am still able to login through WebWorker using old password. Alexey.

	Alexey, Does following work: On the unix login prompt : login as 'omdba' with the correct password? Han
2225.4	Yes, it works OK.	MOSDM::AORLOV	Alexey ORLOV - Radio Free Moscow	`Mon May 12 1997 15:20`	0
2225.5	Looks like it's OS Login problem	MOSDM::AORLOV	Alexey ORLOV - Radio Free Moscow	`Mon May 19 1997 08:52`	7
	It seems like I found the root of the problem. I am not able to login as omdba after I insert its OS login in Administration manager and commit changes. It is true for omdba only. I tried a couple of other users - everything's OK. Password for omdba in LNX and in UNIX are identical. Any ideas what this might be? Alexey.
