Hey everyone, how it going, I just installed Kali and after I installed it, I created a regular user because I can only log in as root, but every time I try to login with my regular user, the following error pops up: Could not update ICE authority file /home/eddie_nygma/.ICEauthority
What do I have to do so I can log in without any issues?
Can you post the result of the following command:
Code:ls -al /home/eddie_nygma/.ICEauthority
Here is short and simple, .ICEauthority is a hidden file auto-generated in the home folder of the user upon creation by Linux, dont try to edit the file or generate it yourself or touch it, any attempts
to do so will fail and cause more problems than started. Your error message is caused by typing useradd instead of adduser :-) I take it you used to be a RHEL guy like myself, just use adduser and your problem will be solved. Thanks
