I have a question about the atime attribute. I wonder why the atime is not updated when the file is read. It is update only the first time the file is read.
For example:
antec:~# touch test
antec:~# stat test
[code]....
It's the second time I've noticed this
~# /etc/init.d/sabnzbdplus restart
mktemp: failed to create file via template `/tmp/sabnzbdplus.XXXXXXXXXX': Read-only file system
/etc/init.d/sabnzbdplus: line 94: $TMPFILE: ambiguous redirect
Stopping SABnzbd+ binary newsgrabber:No process in pidfile '--retry' found running; none killed.
failed!
I need to enable atime on a specific drive. I edited /etc/fstab to include the atime option. After remounting, 'cat /proc/mounts' shows that the drive was mounted with relatime. The option noatime works. Why is the atime option being ignored?
The drive in question is using XFS.
I set my location, but Debian displays DATE in some messed format. I would expect such neat OS to recognize all those local settings based on my location, but that's not the case. It seems that Debian follows locale settings by set language (which is en_us in my case, as I guess in majority uses) or this format is default in any case
I would like to set date/time to DD.MM.YY. hh:mm:ss, and programs that display date data to follow this setting. Simply put, in Windows there is Control Panel and you set location, then OS uses some regional settings, like currency, separators, date/time format.
I have Linux debian 7.7.0 i386-amd64 under VBox 4.3.20 and here is the problem:::
When I open the menu from Linux's top-right corner and click SHUT DOWN..., it shows the dialog with choices, and that Linux guest will automatically shutdown after 60 seconds and I need to change that delay value to 3 seconds. Of course I could just re-click Shut Down -button again, but I don't want to do it. Period.
By Googling I found these "instructions" for UBUNTU:
None of this worked on my 13.04 system. In the end I re-compiled gnome-session.
In gsm_shell.c and gsm_logout_dialog.c change #define AUTOMATIC_ACTION_TIMEOUT from 60 to 5
I am running Debian (Lenny) as my file server on a Windows network. I have multiple users accessing shared excel worksheets. I am the owner of these files and have no problem but if I save a shared workbook the file properties on the Linux server change ''Groups - Read Only, Others - Read Only''. I can reset them logged in as root but they change back every time I save the file from the XP machine (XP Home SP3). All other non-shared worksheets are fine.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am *finally* getting around to rebuilding my file-sharing computer. I'll be sharing files with both Linux and Windoze machines. It's a home network, so there's nothing fancy needed. I know I have to tweak my smb.conf file until I'm satisfied with the features and security. I'm using SWAT and I'm starting with a bare-bones conf file. It's not secure but I can see the server and selected files/directories from my other Linux box.
My really dumb question is, do I have to reboot both the server and the client machines every time I change the SAMBA configuration? I thought I just had to stop and restart the SAMBA service in the SWAT software - but then the server disappears from my client. It looks like I need to reboot both machines for the client to see the server.

i am trying to read in a file 1 line at a time and for some reason it stops printing out at about line 62,000.
i am doing this:
Code:
while(fgets(c0, 1085, fstream0) != NULL)
but after about 62,0000 lines it stops printing. no seg-fault, no core dump. it just stops printing to the terminal then returns me to the command line after a couple of minutes. as a hack i am doing split -l 50000 on the input and calling my program 5 times.is there some limitation on fgets that i am not understanding ?
I am trying to read the /proc/net/tcp6 file of a huge server (chat server) for monitoring the tcp6 connection states.
My server's tcp6 file has more than 26000 lines. For monitoring the server connections, my monitoring tool has to read the /proc/net/tcp6 file quickly in a regular interval (5 secs) and process. Presently it takes minimum 6-7 seconds for reading the whole file.
My tool can able to read the normal file (26,000 lines) less than 1 second, but it is not possible to read the same size of proc file.
I have 2 questions:
1) Why proc file takes more read time than normal file?
2) Is there any way to read the /proc/net/tcp6 file more quickly?
I am writing a C program which reads data over serial port. While reading data, if I send my data(which is a 13 byte structure) periodic with a period of 1 second for 10 times I read it without problem and I read the data 10 times as I sent and as I expectBut if I send data continuousuly(without any time interval between each sending) 10 times I can only read 1 of them(I can only read it once).

We are aware that unix has three sets of permission such as owner, group and others. I have a requirement to have a read-only access to a folder and sub-folders and the group that currently holds can't be used. Because it has write privileges. I would rather not prefer to use others, because it opens to each user in the system.have read-only access for another group?

Appletv wasn't great, so now i have a lovely acer revo running XBMC Live, and it's blooming great. my problem is my USB drive mounts, but i think it's read-only, as i am struggling to sftp new files to it. so my question is:
How do i make the drive writeable?
I've read things about disabling journling, an fstab file, chown in terminal, but im really struggling.
In temrinal if i navigate to the /media folder and run ls -al, i get this: (note the usb drive is called AppleTV)

I need to create a user with least permission on the production server. He should only be able to read or execute the files that to be specific. For example: I just need to give him a set of commands to run.Besides those command execution He should be prevented to run any other command and He should not able to create any files(write permission).
How would i proceed about this.
