I have had a strange problem at home for a while. If I login to the web UI via Firefox, my username/password is not recognised. If I change the rendering engine to Internet Explorer using the IE Tab add-on, I can log in without problem, so the problem is somehow caused by Firefox itself. It's not a serious problem, but it is very strange, and I was wondering if anyone else has had the same problem and/or found out what the cause is...?
Cheers, Ian.

Re: Login to web UI via Firefox
Hi Ian,
Perhaps a stupid question, but are you really sure you're using the same user name/password in the two environments?
I made this mistake recently when I forgot I had changed the password in Linux and suddenly wasn't allowed to log in from Windows. The password had the same length as before and it took some time before I realized what the problem was (blaming micros~1 and what not, before I realized I was the culprit )

Hi Johan,
good point, but this is unfortunately not the case.
I am only logging in from my Win XP laptop, and my Windows username/password works in IE, Firefox with IE rendering (using IE Tab add-on) and Google Chrome; it only doesn't work from Firefox with Firefox rendering activated. As I said, it's not serious, but it certainly is a bit strange...

Hi,
Strange one.
How about log in to your bubba with ssh, then (as root):
This will print a line with your user id and password, so you can compare what is actually sent during log in with the browsers.

Code: Select all
tcpdump -nASs 0 'port 80'|grep 'submit=Log.in'

Re: Login to web UI via Firefox
I logged in as su, and then tried the tcpdump command you suggested, but got a "command not found" error...
I have successfully logged in from work via the Internet from Firefox with FF rendering, and not experienced the same problem as at home...

Hi,
Tcpdump is probably not included in the excito repository. You need to change to the debian repository and install it from there.
