With my vu duo and open pli 4 and this plugin I get different behaviour depending on the sequence of the first startup! Things works well when I switch on (with power switch) the TV, then switch on (with the power switch) the vu duo.
Looks like there is some kind of initialistion at first switch on.
Then I use the standby only on TV or VuDuo and everything works fine.

In Topic: Cannot set password for root user

29 January 2014 - 17:18

My passwd command is a soft link:

lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root            22 Nov  4 07:49 /usr/bin/passwd -> /usr/bin/passwd.shadow

 

So during install of Pli this option was activated by default I suspect?

 

The behavior that I am noticing is that if there is no x in the /etc/passwd, then the command passwd.shadow changes the password in the /etc/shadow (it really does, I see it with the date and the content) but it will not add the x in /etc/passwd!!!!!

 

Not too sure if somebody can validate that?

my /etc/passwd contains "root:x:0:0:root:/home/root:/bin/sh"

and my /etc/shadow contains "root:3UyCYewCWvYsd:16099:0:99999:7:::"   (password string modified  ;)):

What I had asked was:

   - have you edited your /etc/passwd and removed the x

   - run the command passwd

   - checked that the password has been changed AND that the x is added in the /etc/passwd !!!!!

 

Looks like I am not the only one who had this issue (see other post on this forum http://openpli.org/f...ot-doesnt-work/ )

 

What I suspect has happened on my box:

  - I upgraded it to version 4.

  - I have set the passwd of root .....But as the x was not added!!!!

 

Can you try please?

Thanks.
