Hello, could  you check that you have a /home/gast directory owned by gast?

this seems the problem, thanks

it is not owned by "gast"
see screenshot (sorry it is in German, but you will understand it)

Besitzer/owner:   1001 - user #1001

How can I change that?

thanks

Hi,

I gave up the Samba configuration, because I don´t need that at the moment.

I tried to change the password for the second user "gast" with

sudo passwd gast

and it seemed to be ok.

but it is impossible to log into that user.
It seems that it doesn´t recognise the password.

Is there an option in Guix
to find out what the password looks like,
so that I can see it on the screen displayed?

If not, how can I proceed?

thanks

As root, use “passwd gast”.
