I am having a really annoying problem. I have a VPS service, not shared. I am trying to access my php.ini file though PuTTy and the location is /usr/local/lib/php.ini I do the following command
pico /usr/local/lib/php.ini
the file seems to be empty, all that is brought up:
date.timezone="America/Denver".
I need to access it and change some settings!
Can't log into my XFCE desktop like I normaly do. all the sudden I get notified that my xsession lasted less then 10 secondsLooking at the error I can see this:
Unable to access file /home/username/.iceauthority: No such file or directory
Using failsafe I can start a terminal. From terminal I tried to start X
Code: sudo startx Result: Running on desplay:0
So I tried to run this;
Code: sudo startxfce4 And I get up a graphical desktop.
So this is not a critical situation as I easily can use this method to log on, but as there has been something causing this I would like to be able to resolve this nonetheless. Btw it is not the old chmod trick in play here, cause my .iceauthority file is gone alltogheter.
What are the possible problem when Windows access the file from Ubuntu got Read Only even though have a full permission to read, write and execute the file? Ubuntu to Ubuntu accessing the file there is no problem only Windows got a problem.

With this code I am attempting to ensure a php file exists, then attempting to move it to another folder. My script has 40 or so extensions, this is one of many. My problem is this: if the current folder contains no php files i receive an error.
ls: cannot access *.php: No such file or directory
Typically I would use 2> /dev/null to handle output suppression but in this case it prevents the variable assignments.
I have a file 'my_file.txt' stored on 'myserver1.col.edu' Now, I am using a different server 'myserver2.col.edu' to do some work and I want to access 'my_file.txt' on 'myserver1.col.edu' to read (possibly edit) WITHOUT physically copying the entire file across. Is there a way to do this - perhaps through ssh?

In one terminal I do this:

I have reinstalled my centOS linux in my laptop.
I have installed ntfs-3g by yum install fuse fuse-ntfs-3g recommended from :[url]
I have mount it to my window ntfs system and setup
Now I am able to access window ntfs system.
HOWEVER, I could not access to USB NTFS system. May I know why?
It gave me: The volumn "Expansion Drive" uses the ntfs file system which is not supported by your system
The USB drive is FreeAgent (500G). I have partitioned it to 3 parts. 1 part is ntfs. The other two is ext3. I can access ext3 smoothly.
1. I have two RHEL 5.4 Linux machines on the same network, A and B.
2. I have an application running on Machine A needs to read a file on Machine B.
3. Do I have to use something like NFS, or is there a simple command to permit this?
Note: I read a related thread, but was hoping there's something "out of the box" instead of using NFS, HTTP, FTP, etc.
I ran into a bit of trouble making a bash script. (Desktop is a directory, and I try to get it's modification date)
Code:
lamp:~# cmd='ls -l Desktop | grep -o "....-..-.. ..:.."'
lamp:~# $cmd
ls: cannot access |: No such file or directory
ls: cannot access grep: No such file or directory

When I type in the command directly, without using an inbetween variable, it works fine.
If I enable compression when I use ssh to run remote X11 applications on a local display.

I Want to be able to let my girlfriend view my pictures folder while at the same time keeping my sister out. So I created a group "JessAndI" and made myself and her apart of that group. I changed the group of the directory recursively to "JessAndI" and gave the permissions to 770. She still isn't able to access or even view the directory unless i change the permissions to allow others whether it be 774 or 777. Am i doing something wrong? I've checked and double checked to make sure she is part of the group and the group is the group on the directory and all the sub-directories and files.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have been using linux for a bit of time but would still class myself as a noobie. I dont know excatly what I am looking for but I can best describe it in a sanario. I have started creating bash scripts which are looped indefinetly which checks afor files to process. my problem is, is there any way to check if the file is complete, as if the file is large and is being coppied from a different volume the file may still be copying or if the file is being uploaded by a user over samba/nfs, and if the file is still copying the process will most likely fail.

So as root I added myself (username freddy) to the group uucp. This is just temporary, for while I work on this code and try different stuff as user freddy. Once the code is established and I have a single program with a fixed name, I plan to give myself an entry in /etc/sudoers that will allow me to run the finished program.

I've hit a wall here; I'm attempting to find some way by which to view files and cd into directories on a device mounted read-only. So I need the permissions to read, write, execute (and the same with directories), but chmodding is out of the question because I don't want to alter the drive one iota.
I guess what I could do--what I was thinking of initially--was to dupe the whole drive and then mess with permissions. This wouldn't affect the original (actually I'm working on a duplicate of the original, but I'm treating it as if it were the original) but I was hoping for something that would maintain data integrity. This is a forensic application and not altering the data is very important.
I have a requirement related to the apache access log file format: When a user access my local site, http authentication will be displayed:
Code: username: saagar password: 123 I wish to have the LogFormat in the configuration file in such a way that the username and password (saagar/123 in this case) will be logged in the /var/log/apache2/mysite_access_log file. I used the %u parameter as follows: Code: LogFormat "%h %u "%r" %>s %b" common CustomLog /var/log/apache2/mydreamhome_access.log common and it works, similarly I wish the password too to be displayed in the access_log file.
