Suddenly nearly all Users gone after Shutdown

Featured Replies

A wonderful good day my friends,

 

Yesterday I briefly shut down the Unraid server and unscrewed the feet on the housing.

 

When I booted the system up again, no network share was functional anywhere.

 

Then I saw this on the Dashboard:

Even after several reboots, the appropriate users no longer appeared.

 

I was able to recreate all users again.

The Unraid still knew all permissions of the other users..

Sadly, I can no longer delete this weirdo. I have changed his permissions. Had access on my "share"-share, which was set in public...

Now to the question:


1. how could I find out what happened?
2. is it possible to delete users created in Unraid via CLI?

 

Thanks in advance and have a good start into the new year.

Nothing obvious that I can see, if you go to /boot/config/shares do you see that garbled backup share cfg?

 

Do you have a recent flash drive backup?

  • Author

The last backup is a bit older, sadly. :|

What you mean by garbled?

  • Community Expert

I meant for the backup share, so backup.cfg, do you only have that one starting with a b?

  • Author

It's the only one starting with a b, yes.

Root is and was working.

Recreated the users already.

Cant delete the weird user in picture 4.

 

When i hit delete nothings happens.

 

Therefore the question, if you could delete an Unraid-User through CLI.

Deleting those files will delete all the users, technically you only need to delete one, but not sure which one stores the users, I believe it's config/passwd if you want to try just that one.

  • Author

Iam still not talking about files.

A User, that randomly - out of nothing - appeared.

 

Which sadly cant be removed through the Users Tab within Unraid.

 

So it is not possible to delete a Unraid User other the with Unraid it self?

Again, if you delete those files it should delete all the users.
