General :: Disabling Cut And Paste - Renaming In Samba Server
Feb 4, 2010
We are having 12 windows computers xp which are connected to a linux machine which has samba server installed on it for backup purposes of these 12 windows users. We want the like this , that a user copy a folder from their local machine and paste it to the samba server . but they cannot delete this folder once the backup is there at linux machine.
So this is working fine. But our users are able to Rename the folder they have pasted at linux machine which we dont want . and even they are able to cut and paste files from 1 folder to another folder in the samba server. We just want them to copy a file or folder from their local windows machine and paste to samba server and they can also read it (copy and paste back to their windows computer)whenever they want . but we dont want them to cut and paste within linux machine and rename that file as well.
We have 10.x ubuntu server with XP clients. We have samba share folders at LAN. Is there any possibility that we can disable copy and paste option for some specific folders, while other data folders remain as usual in our shared data?
I've got three server folder things but I'm wondering whether I could rename them to something a bit more neater.When I do try renaming one it comes up with this error.
I need to know is there any way to record or tracking or make logging if when user samba delete files or folders i can know that, cause sometimeon samba server some users complain they lost files, though i have daily backup and i can restore their files, i just want to know if or maybe some other users in one group accidentally move or delete the files.
I am new to virtual machines in general, and currently playing with the XEN-based VM in CentOS 5.5. Question: if neither virt-manager nor virsh (using "virsh edit <guest name>" and changing the name in the XML file) are designed to actually change a guest's name...then what is the recommended procedure for doing this?
I have set up a nis slave server on Fedora 14. It was set up on a laptop so that the user can log in when he is at home (no NFS, local home dir). However, whenever the eth0 is disconnected, ypbind fails.
I have tried the same setup on a RHEL 4 (configured it as a slave server) against the same master nis as on the Fedora 14. Disabling eth0 on it however does not fail ypbind.
There are over a dozen of servers that I need to monitor for services running on them. Hence, I have created a separate VM on which I am hosting scripts for various purposes. I have written a script (bash) that checks the status of the services running on those servers. Since my script has this line of command (for example):
Code: /sbin/service vsftpd status I have created a user (let's name it user_monitor) and added it to /etc/sudoers file by issuing "visudo" on all the servers. Since I need to execute the command remotely from the VM so I have generated a Public RSA Key (ssh-heygen) and added it to "authorized_keys" file on all the servers. But on some servers when issue a command such as the following:
I�m installing fail2ban to improve the security of a home asterisk server which from time to time becomes the target of some sip account cracker and/or ssh brute force attack.For those not familiar with fail2ban, this utility monitors log files to find matches with user specified expressions to identify the presence of a brute force attack. Then configures iptables rules to block the offending IP.Here�s an example:
Code: NOTICE[1734] chan_sip.c: Registration from '"613"<sip:613@xx.xxxx.xxx.xxx>' failed for 'yyy.yyy.yyyy.yyy' - No matching peer found
I'm using CentOS 5 and just found out that there are people using my Apache Web Server as proxy (version 2.2.3 the OS's default).
I've checked out that my mod_proxy is already disabled but the unauthorized incoming request is still very large.
So I tried to compile an Apache from raw (2.2.17) just enabling mod_rewrite and then found out that the 'proxy' request is still there.
Tried httpd -l and here are the modules inside the Apache :
Code: # /opt/apachew/bin/httpd -l Compiled in modules: core.c mod_authn_file.c
[Code]....
There should be no mod_proxy but why should it still accepting proxy request? I checked the access_log file and still found [URL] and so on.
My question is : - How to block all the proxy request and only accepting the normal web server request? I also have tried to enable proxy in the previous Apache and then setting up "ProxyRequest Off" and Proxy * only from localhost but the request is still there.
I tried by myself using the webserver as proxy in browser and all the URLs I opened including the false URL will be redirected to my index.php and this should show me that 'you-can't-use-this-as-proxy-anymore' right?
Insane people still believe they could use my server and they keep trying and trying.
I couldn't block the IP addresses because some of them are using the mobile data (GPRS/UMTS) and that is our market for the website.
I have a Centos NIS server that is working fine with other linux clients. i need to have a Solaris 8 client bind to the NIS domain and found out that Sol8 does not support MD5 format passwords that the NIS master is generating. so i am trying to disable the MD5 encryption on the nis master and it does not seem to work. i run this command
and it restarts portmap and nis services ok. on the master server i then do a yppasswd username and a make passwd and it still uses the 34 char password format. what do i need to do to disable MD5 passwords in a centos nis server?
What's the easiest way to rename (change the volume label of) a fat16 volume (e.g. on a USB drive) from linux? It seems like mlabel from the mtools package is meant to do this, but the documentation is not geared to rapid assimilation.
What's the command for renaming files? I thought it was "mv"--I typed "info" and read
Quote:
* mv: (coreutils)mv invocation. Rename files. So, desiring to give a .JPG extension to a jpeg file that had no extension (because I dug it out of my Firefox cache), I typed
I am trying to rename a list of variables in my script using a second list of variables. I want the variables in the second list to replace the variables in the first list such that the first variable in List 1 is renamed after the first variable in List 2, the second variable in List 1 is renamed after the second variable in List 2, the third variable in List 1 is renamed after the third variable in List 2, and so on.
For example:
I know how to rename each file individually, but would like to run Do Loop which can rename all my output files at once.
I run a script which generated about 10k files in a directory. I just discovered that there is a bug in the script which causes some filenames to have a carriage return (presumably a '' character).
I want to run a sed command to remove the carriage return from the filenames.
Anyone knows which params to pass to sed to clean up the filenames in the manner described?
I am running on Linux (Ubuntu)
The character causing the filename to 'break up' accross multiple lines appear to be a CR (carriage return) instead of ' '. The filename is being diaplayed in thetitle of a text editor with %0D in the positions of where the file name breaks up. So I need to remove the CR chars from my filenames.
Is there a way to do a batch renames of files that will keep each individual filename, but change it in the way I want?
The specific issue is this. I have a harddrive with something like 1300 movies on it. They're all organized alphabetically, but there are like 200 movies that begin with 'The'. I want to rename all of these movies that begin with The so that the The at the beginning is dropped and added at the end (for example, turn "The Shawshank Redemption" into "Shawshank Redemption, The"). I'd like to do this with a simple command if its possible.
its very easy to rename a flash disk or even a memory card or any storage in windows because all you have to do is right click on the disk and an option is there rename, i have failed to find a way of doing this in linux ubuntu 8.04, but i understand its possible even in the command line, i need to rename my flash disk
that works to disallow non-owners from renaming the file, but what I wouldlike to do is disallow EVERYONE ( including the owner of the file ) fromediting, moving, or changing the filename once it is created. the only personwho should be able to make those changes is a special user.
I have a dir (pub_html) with 45 sub dirsand in each there is a file with name file123.html) what command can I use to rename all files with this name in all sub dirs to file456.html ? I'm on opensuse 11.3
I have to rename a group of machines in my little samba domain (tbd backend) but there is an ugly bug that makes this impossible. have set 'rename user script' variable corectly, also checked all configurations.When i change computer name in my windows box, it shows an error saying something like "Error calling remote procedure"Looking on server side, username for the machine gets correctly changed in /usr/passwd, and also in samba database.But samba log says:
=============================================================== [2009/10/08 11:10:32, 0] lib/fault.c:fault_report(42) INTERNAL ERROR: Signal 11 in pid 11052 (3.0.33-3.7.el5_3.1)
I have files whose names look like this:Sim1-2_40.36.chr20_sb.foo.indel.novoalign.samSim1-2_40.36.chr20_sb.foo.indel.bwa.samWhat I want to do is to replace all indel with snp in the namesyieldingSim1-2_40.36.chr20_sb.foo.snp.novoalign.samSim1-2_40.36.chr20_sb.foo.snp.bwa.samBut why this unix command doesn't work
I messed up the whole thing and the settings. Created some new thing named rhk which I can't remember as it got all messed up and Now I am getting nothing after Linux Mint 10(julia) boots up - no start menu, no panel, no taskbar nothing. I tried to work in the recovery mode and got some(downloaded) 216mb of something(in the repair broken packages). Moreover whenver I have booted in it shows messages like Could not update ICEauthority file /home/rk./.ICEauthority
there is a problem with the configuration server. (usr/lib/libconfig24/gconfsanitycheck2 exited with status 256) The panel encountered a problem while loading "OAFIID: NOME_mintMenu" The panel encountered a problem while loading "OAFIID: GNOME_IndicatorApplet" Naulitis could not create the following reqiured folders: /home/rk/Desktop, /home/rk/. Naulitis Moreover Alt+F2 gives Run application or run with file and nothing seems to be working.
Recently I installed Dropbox on a server to do file synchronization and it added " (Case Conflict 1)" to a whole bunch of my files! I realize now that it was caused by case insensitivity but I'm still left with hundreds of files that are in this renamed state. Is there a script in Linux that would allow me to recursively go through the directories and strip out this string?
i.e. a (Case Conflict 1).jpg --> a.jpg /myfolder/abc (Case Conflict 1).doc --> /myfolder/abc.doc /myfolder/subfolder/mydoc (Case Conflict 1).pdf --> /myfolder/subfolder/mydoc.pdf
