Thanks everyone,
secure log tells me exactly what the problem is:
"User username not allowed because account is locked"
Setting a password for that account unlocks it and ssh works as
expected. I guess I have to work on my account creation routine.

you might look into mkpasswd, its probably excessively complicated, but
it can set a users password
# mkpasswd -l 20
You are right, that would do the trick when writing a script. But what
I'm actually trying to accomplish is creating user accounts with the
configuration manager "salt".
In a blog post someone explained how to create users with it and he
didn't set a password, so I gave it chance and came across t

This only works when there's been a password set for the account before
locking it. For obvious reasons empty passwords are not allowed :)

I question why you want accounts without passwords when logging in via
SSH and public keys does not use a password or even ask for one. Also
anyone logged in can change users with only an su - and not
need a password.
Have you tried setting PASS_MIN_LEN in /etc/login.defs to 0?

Hi John,
I'm working from home today so I've ask the phd student to launch a PXE
boot for a new full kikstart install with a PC keyboard and then try to
configure the apple keyboard by hand. See the answers to your questions

Hi,

on one server some LVM stores are physically removed but still there are
some informatione somwher spread adcross teh server.
e.g. if I do a vgdisplay or pvcreat I get an error regarding that old
storage:

Hello list,
On our CentOS 6.4 machines I've LDAP enabled such that Windows users
with the requisite unix attributes can log into the machines. These
remote windows users have UID/GID starting at 2 so are well out of
the way of local users.
If I now create a local user with useradd, the UID/GI

Try this, iptables dump from my fresh install, with ssh allow and the vnc

The instructions out linked to has a type-o at the end says to connect to
ip:5801 should be 5901.
If your using a vnc client uvnc, tightvnc.. try using just the ip without
the :port part or :1 for the 5901.
Try lsof -i -P | grep -i "listen"
To see what ports are listening...

You can specify the port with the IP by using the colon with the ip.
x.x.x.x:5901 or x.x.x.x:5902

Humm,
Could windows machine be blocking the port going out?
If your using putty as a ssh client you could try to port forward (5901,
5901) through the ssh session and then try to connect using localhost:5901
or localhost:5902 on the windows machine and see if you can connect.
