Unable to login on Fedora 11 with root user in GUI

I just install linux ( Fedora core -11) after interval of more than 6 months. Just installed Fedora core 11, surprisely there was one more option to create file sytem ext4 ,this file system was new for me.
Now as i finished installation ooooooooooooopsss
I was'nt able to login in GUI as super user. System refelect an error "unable to authoneticate"
Finaly after a littel bit R & D i got solution.Here it is:
 Fedora 10 and above uses pam module called pam_succeed_if.so. This module is designed to succeed or fail authentication based on characteristics of the account belonging to the user being authenticated. One use is to select whether to load other modules based on this test. This module blocks root login using GUI.
to fix this problem

Login as a normal user and open terminal
now give command

[satish@malanch.com]$su

Type your root password. Next, make a backup of /etc/pam.d/gdm, enter:


[root@malanch.com]#cp /etc/pam.d/gdm /root

Now open /etc/pam.d/gdm using gedit or vi text editor, enter:





[root@malanch.com]#vim  /etc/pam.d/gdm

Alternatively, you can do everything in a one command:



su -c 'gedit /etc/pam.d/gdm

Find line that read as follows:



auth required pam_succeed_if.so user != root quiet
Remove or comment out line by prefixing #.



# auth required pam_succeed_if.so user != root quiet

Save and close the file. Logout from terminal and from GUI itself.
now restart ur machine by init 6.
Now you can login to your sytem in GUI with root user. (only in case of Fedora 10)

In case of Fedora 11 you need to edit one more file which is located in /etc/pam.d/gdm-password

[root@malanch.com]#vim /etc/pam.d/gdm-password

Find line that read as follows:


auth required pam_succeed_if.so user != root quiet



Remove or comment out line by prefixing #.




Now restart and enjoy login with root.

2010 Security Suites: The Best and Worst

We've reviewed nearly a dozen 2010 security suites�find out which will keep you safe and which to avoid.

The 2010 "model year" for security suites got started early, with a couple of products already out in June. Panda Internet Security 2010 made a decent showing, but eScan Internet Security Suite for Home Users Version 10 isn't ready to provide serious competition for any of the better-known contenders in the U.S. market. Much the same is true of K7 TotalSecurity Version 10.0: It's popular in Japan, but doesn't live up to the standards set by other major products here�at least it didn't bog down my test systems.

"Porn" Games on Rise

It was before a year or two most of the children were so much crazy or even can say addicted to games like Moto Racer, PS2 and many more. But today children are still have got lot of choices in choosing a game from wide variety. Whereas in the recent times, there has been many porn games which has been floating around the internet as well as sold in the way side Shoppe, and markets. These games are designed by some individuals and are sold in the internet worldwide.

You may ask what�s wrong with wwf, hunting and other explicit games. The problem according to psychologists� any fighter games will make a child to become violent. At least the fighter games can be set apart, but what about the porn games. Recently there is game which is popularly played by children in and above the age of 13. That�s none other than a porn game. The games goes like this �A girl would be standing alone in the railway station, the player who plays the game should rape the girl and have pleasure� Doesn�t sound bad. These kind of games should not be entertained says government and NGO�s. Latest news on socio-economic, technology keeps pounding about such kind of illegal games and the consequences one has to face for designing those.

Psychologists� say that �If children about 13 Years and above play this as game, tomorrow, in real life if they get a chance to see a girl alone in some place, the intention would be not to impress but vice-versa as played in the game. Also a student who plays this game, tomorrow if gets married; his mind doesn�t look for love or affection, but for forceful indulgence or other way round. Love is something that should come from heart and mind, and in no way can�t be acquired forcefully�

So it�s our responsibility as a human being to stop all such illegal activities. In fact the world is still exists because of the true love and affection among people. When the true love and affection expires then the world is no more.
