General :: How To Have A Mix Of Linked And Not Linked Files Without Linking Every File
Feb 20, 2010I've got a shared (Windows/multiuser Linux) laptop, and I've got installed World of Warcraft and some steam games in Windows. With steam games, there is (almost) no problems. I've installed steam in Linux, and soft linked the 'steamapps' directory (per-game compatibility is another issue). With WoW, the problem is different. I would like to have almost (but not) all files. Under World of Warcraft, every file and directory must be linked except the Interface directory and WTF/config.wtf file (so every user can play with their own settings and addons). How can I have a mix of linked and not linked files without linking every file? If I link manually every file/dir, when updating from Linux other users and Windows Wow is not updated; when updating from Windows, new files remains "unlinked".

General :: Vim: Command To Show All Non-printable Chars?
Dec 5, 2010Suppose I'm editing a file with vim. The file, a text file, contains line terninators which are line feeds (LF= 0x0a). It could also contain horizontal tabs (HT= 0x09) and some more non-printable chars (in fact, it could be corrupt and contain anything). Will vim let me see the location within the text of those chars (chars = characters) and what each of them is? I know there are such things as hexdump and the like but it would be nice for me to stay within the vim session.

May 15, 2011I want to make a webserver with multiple users allowed to login through SFTP to a specific folder, www.Multiple users are added, lets say user1 and user2, and all of them belonging to the www-data group. The www directory has an owner www-data and a group www-data.
I have used chmod -R 775 on the www folder, but after I try to create a folder test through my SFTP server (using Filezilla) the group of the directory created has only r and x permissions, and I am not able to log in with the second user user2 and create a directory within www/test due to a lack of w permission to the group.
I also tried using chmod 2775 on www directory, but without luck. Can somebody explain to me, how can I make it so that a newly created directory inherits the root directory group permissions?

General :: Listing All Linked Files
Jan 21, 2010I can't seem to find a way to do this, so maybe it's not actually possible, but I was wondering if there was a way to list all files that link to a file.
For example.
touch a
ln a b
ln a c
I want to find out what files link to a (not symlinks, mind you), assuming that this is more complicated (they are spread around to different directories).
I kind of understand about the filesystem storing links in one area and data in another, so I understand it probably takes more work to find a link from a file location than the other way around.

General :: Compiling Library In Cygwin To Be Linked With VC++
May 21, 2010I'm interested in modding an open-source turn based game called Advanced Strategic Command or ASC, but to do that I need bunch of libraries. Installing those libraries is very easy in linux, I know but the thing is I'm working with windows in which the building of the libraries is a bit more complex, as you probably know. One of those libraries is the ligsigc++, I'm using VC++ but haven't been successful in building the libsigc++ in VC++. I considered making my life easier with Cygwin (a unix shell for windows) and simply executing ./Configure, Make. I's worked like a charm and the library dll it produced is named cygsigc-2.0-0.dll which made me wonder is compiling a library in cygwin to be linked with VC++ perfectly ok? That is is there any difference in compiling in cygwin and VC++?

View 10 Replies View RelatedGeneral :: Difference Between Static And Dynamically Linked Library?
Aug 30, 2010Libraries have always been ambiguous to me. I would love to have a clear understanding of them. Here's what I know so far... Ok I know that libraries are a bunch of functions and definitions in C that binaries use. I also understand that static libraries are used by the binaries in /sbin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/sbin and dynamically linked libraries are used by the binaries in /bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin So why have statically linked and dynamically linked libraries? I know that dynamically linked libraries are used to save space. Otherwise each binary would need its own private copy of a library. So dynamically libraries are used to save space.
1. Where are the static libraries and the dynamically linked libraries located in the file structure?
2. Where does ldconfig fit into all of this?
3. Would a rootkit affect both statically and dynamically linked libraries? I would think yes unless the libraries only have read permissions.
4. If the above is true, is there any reason for your libraries to have write permission other than when you want to edit them?
