Will restarting the system flush BIND (named) cache? I use GNU/Linux.
I want only root/admin to be able to shut down the system. How can I do it in GNU/Linux, specifically Ubuntu, system?
There are some 30 systems (standalone PCs) in my lab and nearly 200 students who will be using it. Each system has an account called USER whose password is 123456 which is known to those 200 people. Hence they access whichever system is free and work for sometime. Their usage is logged by just register book entry. I want to give each users separate logins and passwords which is easily achieved by LDAP server. But i do not want to create 200 user accounts in each PC. i want to map all the 200 peoples login to be made into the USER account itself. They will have same profile and same home directory. I just want to log the Time and date of individuals' lab usage in a file. Can this be done using LDAP or some other software?
Is there an equivalent of set uid for windows(XP)? The 'run as' option requires admin password each time it runs. I want users to be able to run that particular executable without knowing admin password. I'm very much new to windows area. :(
