General :: Change Permission To /proc/net/ip_conntrack On Ubuntu Server 9.10
Mar 28, 2010
I have a script that needs to extract certain information form the /proc/net/ip_conntrack file once in a while. I do not wish to run this script as the root user.
Default permissions for the file is:
I can change it with:
But that does not stick after a reboot. Is there some configuration file for file-permissions in the /proc directory in Ubuntu Server 9.10? Or do I just have to stick a chmod line in some startup script?
I've been using Digikam and it's a huge blow to my system memory. Even after quitting I still feel my computer to be slightly slower. I tried running the commands from [URL] but I get this instead
Trying to change permissions on a file in /proc/sys/fs/inotify. The command syntax are:
Code: sudo chmod u+w max_user_watches and the result is:
Code: chmod: changing permissions of `max_user_watches': Operation not permitted Also tried to change it when logged in as root, same results. Parent directory permissions are dr-xr-xr-x, and are the same up the chain. Tried to change the directory permissions to u+w, that didn't work either. FWIW, /proc is part of the / partition, and it has ~600MB free space.
I have 3 images made by clonezilla now I want to restore 1 of them, but when I try to use clonezilla to restore, there's no option to restore image. I can see the images in home directory and file is owned by root in my home directory. I'm trying to transfer image to usb hdd.
Did I place image in wrong directory or is it permissions problem.
I've got the F13 LiveCD that I was able to boot and use using the "nomodeset" boot option. From the desktop I'm trying to perform an Install to Hard Drive. I've read the Install from LiveCD post regarding the creation of a /boot partition and a / root partition. I've tried creating them without the LVM group and with. But every time I appempt to install I get...
An error occurred mounting device proc as /proc: mount failed: (9, None). This is a fatal error and the install cannot continue.

I have ubuntu 10.4. i install rdesktop 1.7. i run this commands:
Tal is external hard drive connecting at usb in ntfs file system.
I connect to windows 7. i see the hard drive in computer and i can access to files and create new files and folders, but when i try to copy a new file to a folder he show me a error message: You need premission perform this action
Your require permission from computer's administratorn to make changes to this folder tal on my computername
Disk from Remote Desktop Connection.
I try chmode and chowne too but i read i linux forum when it ntfs is no use.
I have a c file, and I want to open it but not in the terminal. After changing the permission, I tried: vi, pico, ed and vim. But, all open it in the terminal. How can I change the permission of that file to be opened and edited not in the terminal? When I change the permission from the terminal, it only let me edit it through the terminal, and when I check the permission of the file I see it as was it (no change). I need a permanent permission. Although, I command as a root.
I got myself curious on the possibility to change user's permission to any command, or at least giving other users some command line "power". It all started a few days ago, when another user here, had a problem so that the computer wasn't answering. So, after waiting a while, chose to hit the Reset button and start the computer again. Considering this situation, I thought myself that it would have been better to restart the computer, through command line, on any terminal (F1-F6). Anyway, this user is no administrator, thus wouldn't have permission to use the code...
So, is it possible to let other users to use such commands, in order to safe rebooting the system, without logging as root?
For example /dev/loop*, /dev/raw/*, etc., they are automatically reset to root/root after rebooted.Change the owner/permission of device files maybe not a good idea, though. I just want to know if it is possible and how?
I am installing oracle 11g on Oracle enterprise Linux 5 i applied all the steps in doc [URL] when trying to switch user to user oracle i am facing the below
[root@oel5 ~]# su - oracle su: warning: cannot change directory to /home/oracle: Permission denied -bash: /home/oracle/.bash_profile: Permission denied
I'm using NetBeans for editing some php files ( in a php project ) at remote server.
all go normal, but when saving the edited file using NetBeans, the file's permissions are set to 0600 by default, making me not able to browse to the file at the remote server till chmod it to 0777 or else.
the main project folder have permissions 0777 and owned to me. Also the all sub-folders and files under the project's folder have the same permission 0777.
What is the problem ? And how to get over it ?
I'm using Ubuntu 10.04, NetBeans 6.9 ( Final Edition ). The Connection to the remote server is via FTP in Passive Mode.
I'm on OS X and mount a network share from my Windows XP machine. Files by default have the rwx (700) permissions. What OS X option I need to change, that the files will have rw (600) permission?
Maybe this question also applies for Linux mounting a Windows network share.
I Have been trying to change a file in filestarter using sudo /etc/rsyslog.conf. but am getting a permission denied message. How do I get into this file to change it ? Firestarter is working ok but for some reason it cannot open the system log. I Have found what amendments need to be made to get this to work but simply cannot get access to the file
Just installed a new CentOS with the control panel Interworx. Everything fine, BUT. I can't add new ipadresses cause there is no network device.When i do 'ifconfig' i get the following:
[root@cobra ~]# ifconfig eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:1C:C0:A7:25:9F inet addr: Bcast: Mask:255.255.255.0 UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1

Samba Server version 3.25 The share directory test , the user's permission will be :Users can copy files into the test directory bywindow's file exploer , and after copying userscan'tither delete that files nor recovery them.
So, the NSA puts out some handy documentation on locking down a RHEL server (running centos 5.6 x64 myself) here, [url]. Under "Ensure System is Not Acting as a Network Sniļ¬er" on page 63, it says that if any numbers below the first line in /proc/net/packet, that it is acting as a network sniffer.
I get the following output:
Code:
Unless I've been pwned, I don't know exactly what could be causing this. Besides samba, nmap (compiled from source, not from yum), screen, and rtorrent, there's nothing I've installed beyond the fresh install I did a few days ago. I was not running nmap when looking at /proc/net/packet.
I am working currently on my server on an issue, I configured the SSH Deamon that only people who have a valid ssh-key can login on to the server, and kicked the password option. Now I've added a user account git. I navigate to his home folder created the folder ".ssh" and created in that folder the file "authorized_keys" I copied my public key in there. Now on my local machine I added that identity (via ssh-add) and I wanted to connect to my server. but when I'm trying to login myself I can't the only message I get is "Permission denied (publickey)."
I have configured samba server.My requirement was that the path which i have to share was /srv/www/htdocs.With this the shared path for developer user was /srv/www/htdocs/projects.
So in the smb.conf file i made the entries as following:
After that root user was able login to both /srv/www/htdocs and also project folder and developer was only able to login to projects folder.That was according to my requirement but now the problem is that when developer is trying to edit any file in projects folder he is getting error that you dont have permissions to change this file.But developer should be able to edit any files. What changes i need to do now.
A rather new user here, was messing with the preferences on a user folder of mine on Karmic, looking for a way to make the folder invisible to users (like the old windows option). Set it to 'none', then closed it, returned to the directory finding the folder with a box with an 'x' on it.
Went to open it, it says 'access denied'. So I think 'okay, how do I undo that', go back to see if I can restore it back to 'read & write' with no sucess.
Seached the forums for a solution to this issue, most of solutions revolve around 'gksudo nautilus' which I attempted to open via command-line. Nothing seemed pop open after I entered my password in responce to entering said command-line, probably because I really don't know how to use Nautilus.
I am getting annoyed that every time I try to extract, move, or delete a folder I get:
"Unable to move due to file permission" "Unable to delete due to file permission" "Unable to extract due to file permission"
I really have a hard time trying to use, and understand the chmod folder stuff in terminal. So I asked a friend and he helped me create a desktop program or icon where I would just drop the folder I wanted to use on it, and permission wouldn't be needed anymore.
Well, I dropped a a folder on it one day and the folder didn't open, so I tried another folder and eventually the thing never worked again so I removed it.
Is it possible to allow the entire hard drive or OS (Ubuntu 9.10) to give me permission to all the folders? I only installed the [password to log] in thing, so I wouldn't have to worry about people in my house using my computer without consent. If this isn't possible can someone post a method to create the launcher or icon?
Note: I made a root desktop thing (Guy holding what looks to be an ID card) but not even that will allow me to delete the folder in the file system. I the entire game that the folder is called is removed already, so there is no point me leaving this folder alone.
I'm trying to move a file to opt folder. But I cant do it because I dont have the permission to do it. In folder preferences it says " you are not the owner"How can I move a file to opt folder? or How can I change the folder permission settings?
Im trying to run Wow with Wine , But its telling me i need to give to the wow folder write access , so im right clicking on the folder , then Permissions , And it has create or delete folder already on , but right below im selecting Read and Write but it doesnt let me do it :/ just goes back to blank .
