I have switched my virtual machine, to use a ldap server for authentication with sssd. I assumed with this setup I will not need to use local passwords anymore, as i can login with ldap authentication. But it seems that lightdm and it's background service accounts-daemon do not show users in the greeter, which do not have a shadow password set. If the shadow password is set, the user is shown in the user list in the greeter. If there is no shadow password the greeter doesn't show the user.



This seems to depends on the "accounts-daemon", which is used by lightdm to get its userlist. 



 /usr/libexec/accounts-daemon --debug


shows that my user is skipped as long as the user doesn't have a shadow password



How can i make accounts-daemon show all users, which only happen to have not a shadowpassword. I do not like the idea to create "random" local passwords.



Or can I switch off accounts.daemon for lightdm?

          How many registers does an x86_64 CPU actually have?

          Image
          Clash Royale CLAN TAG #URR8PPP up vote 2 down vote favorite I am currently learning reverse engineering and am studying the flags register. I had in my mind that rflags was just another name for one of the 16 general purpose registers, for example rax or rbx . But it looks like rflags is actually an additional register. So that makes 17 registers in total... how many more could there be? I have spent at least an hour on this and found numerous different answers. The best answer so far is this, which says that there are 40 registers in total. 16 General Purpose Registers 2 Status Registers 6 Code Segment Registers 16 SSE Registers 8 FPU/MMX Registers But if I add that up, I get 48. Could anybody provide an official answer on how many registers an x86_64 CPU has (e.g. an Intel i7). Additionally, I have seen references to 'hardware' and 'architectural' registers. What are those registers and how many are there? register x86-64 share | improve this...
