Hi,I´m working on Mandriva Free Linux
When I tried to log on, I got: "Security Violation"
I verified mnu_user table and I could see the users that I tried, but none of them work properly. Also, I added a new user and I got the same message.
I loaded all the tables mentioned on the installation page.
Any suggestion?
Cheers.

Yes, the password fields are encrypted on MNU_USER. Just, one row I added is not encrypted
On MNU_CONTROL:
I updated field_value to 'N' and I could log on. Is that correct or you can give me any suggestion about that record?
-------------------------
record_id = SYSTEM
field_id = PSWD_ENCRYPT
field_value = Y
-------------------------
cheers

That field is normally updated via the screen Update Control Data. It tells the system whether passwords are to be encrypted before they are stored in the database.
As the switch is now set to 'N' you can use sql to set all the passwords to plain text, an you should be able to logon with any of the users ids. If you then go to the Control Data screen and set the switch to 'Y' it will update all the user records by encryptng the passwords. You should then try logging on again to see that it now works.
