Repair permissions to fix remote login issues
Why do permissions always seem to get screwed up on Mac OSX? I have both a Mac with OSX and Linux machines, and I've never encountered this on Linux. On the Mac, I've had to repair permissions periodically, and I've started doing it after each installation (including maintenance) as a preventative measure. Is this a known bug, and if so any idea when this will be fixed? Or is this just something related to the way Apple is using the OS or developers mis-package software? It really is annoying.
Repair permissions to fix remote login issues
Just an extra hint:
Repair permissions to fix remote login issues
it has to do with programs (mainly installers) changing system files for their needs and then for some reason not changing them back. I know for an install of an ftp server (crushftp i believe) i had to alter the permissions of a system file so that it could operate. I'm assuming this is happening at a larger scale during some installs and then the installer not or being unable to return the permissions to what they should be.
This fixed my remote login problem - THANK YOU
for whatever reason, I couldn't connect to a remote OS X 10.2 machine with ARD. This hint solved my problem!! |
