Fedora :: Allow User To Save/edit/delete Documents In A Folder But Not Delete That Folder?
Sep 6, 2011Recently I setup a system for a non-technical user. He is only using Firefox, Pidgin and OpenOffice for about 2 hours a day. I have created a folder "/home/jim/myFiles" where he can save his document files. But Jim has accidentally deleted his myFiles folder on 2 occasions. He had intended to delete a file in that folder. Is there a way to lock the folder so that the user and create/read/write documents in that folder but not delete the folder itself?

Sep 25, 2010I am trying to use an old box as backup server. I have tried a couple of possibilities along the lines of:
Quote:
rsync -a --delete --progress --log-file=/home/$USER/info.txt -e ssh /home /etc root@192.168.0.106:/mnt/back
The problem is it does not delete files that has been removed from my local system?
I run the command as root on the local system.
(I realize I should properly not ssh into the server as the server's root but I'm having trouble with the permissions and I want to make sure everything else works before messing around with it)

Fedora :: Can't Delete Certain Files From A Mac Drive?
Jan 27, 2010I am using FC11 and have an external USB drive attached which was originally formatted and used with OS X. I'm pretty sure it's an HFS+ filesystem, but fdisk-l simply reports "unknown". I moved a ton of files to it from an older OS X drive, including a bunch of backups that were done with Time Machine in OS X.
Now I've moved them all back to where I want them (onto an EXT2 formatted drive) and I'm trying to clear those Time Machine files off the HFS+. The drive will ultimately be used with a Mac, so I don't want to wipe the whole disk (aside from the fact I have a ton of other stuff on there that I don't want to move).
The problem is that I cannot get FC11 to delete the Time Machine files. When I try to delete the top level folder ('rm -rf topfolder'), the command looks like it's running (and goes load crazy on the CPU), but I left it running all night, then cancelled it this morning, no files were deleted. It just sits there. When I try to delete folders a little lower in the tree using 'rm -rf myfolder' I get an error telling me the folder is not empty. When I go down to the lowest level folder, I can only find DS_Store and .localized files in it. The properties are rather odd... output of ls -als is this:

Fedora :: Yumex Can't Delete Repo
Nov 4, 2010I just upgraded from Fedora 11 x86_64 to Fedora 13 using the DVD. After rebooting I discovered that none of the launch menu items for OOo are working. But that is probably because I had OOo 3..2.1 installed by downloading it from openoffice.org instead of using the version in the repos. I have "openoffice" listed in some file somewhere (I forgot) to exclude OOo from updates.
So I decided to launch Yumex to make sure that the upgrade didn't overwrite my OOo installation with the version from the repos. But Yumex will not launch. It gives me an error message that there is a problem with the livna repo, and to launch it with yumex -n.
I can launch it with yumex -n, and I can unselect the livna repo, but when I try to launch it later it still fails. Launching again with yumex -n reveals that the livna repo is still selected. I have unselected the livna repo several times, but every time I relaunch Yumex it is still enabled.
I spent a long time in the Debian world and don't know how to delete a repo from the command line on Fedora. Can someone tell me how to nuke the livna repo so I can get Yumex to run?

Fedora :: Delete Key In Terminal / Screen?
Mar 7, 2011How can I get the delete key to work "properly" in a console in Fedora 14? In most Linux's I use, the delete key acts as a 'forward delete', so it deletes the character right under the cursor. This is the same behavior as in any modern GUI application. But in my fedora box when I use the delete key it inserts a tilde.s happens in Gnome's terminal application, and also in a TTY console. If I run screen the behavior gets really strange, and it seems to change the capitalization of the character under the cursor, andterferes with subsequent keystrokes. I've tried a couple of things for screen,ke executing "TERM=screen screen" (really bizarre results) and putting "termcapinfo xterm-color kD=E[3~" in my ~/.screenrc, which didn't seem to do anything useful.

View 1 Replies View RelatedFedora Networking :: Nautilus + FTP = Can't Delete Folders?
Mar 28, 2009I have an FTP server on my network (currently ran on IIS). When I connect with Nautilus to FTP and try to delete folder (files delete works) I get error.I tried Filezilla and Gnome-Commander as clients - they cat delete directories just fine. I tried to solve this problem for months because I like the convenience of having my FTP bookmarked in Nautilus and use it from there.Today I finally found a reason for Nautilus not being able deletedirectories, but I can't find a solution to that. I've checked FTP logs and saw that all working ftp-clients are performing RMD on directory name only, while Nautilus always prepends directory name by / symbol. So, let's say I'm trying to delete folder call "Test"Filezilla and Gnome-Commander are logged as doing RMD on "Test", but Nautilus was logged as doing RMD on "/Test" and server replied that "/Test" folder doesn't exist
