Is it possible to export the console display to my desktop?
I'm running Exceed 14.x the console is RHEL 5.6 running gnome.
I know how to export my display in an individual putty session and run whatever x app I need, but would like to be able to export the console session to my desktop also.
I'm trying to export a variable from within the .xsession so it will be available to any application started afterwards.
Here is a minimial .xsession file:
Code:
export MYVAR=123
exec gnome-session
The problem is that when I start a terminal and do:
Code:
echo $MYVAR
I get an empty string, meaning it's undefined.
I know many people have asked about environment variables before, but I am having a hard time dealing with these paths while ensuring I don't mess around with the original settings. How would you go about executing these commands in Ubuntu in terms of environment variables?
put /home/stanley/Downloads/ns-allinone-2.34/bin:/home/stanley/Downloads ns-allinone-2.34/tcl8.4.18/unix:/home/stanley/Downloads/ns-allinone-2.34/tk8.4.18/unixinto your PATH environment; so that you'll be able to run itm/tclsh wish/xgraph.
IMPORTANT NOTICES:
(1) You MUST put
/home/stanley/Downloads/ns-allinone-2.34/otcl-1.13,
/home/stanley/Downloads/ns-allinone-2.34/lib,
into your LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable.

I have a VirtualBox 3.1.2 image of Debian 5.0.2 running on Windows XP SP3. I would like to export that Debian image to a USB harddrive such that I could boot to that drive and run it natively. Is that possible to do with a VDI?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am aware this has probably been covered hundreds of times, so apologies if so. I am fairly new to the linux scripting scene, so again apologies if what I'm saying seems pretty odd and makes no sense. I am attempting to write a script for some Linux Fedora test servers I have set up. For me to change which domain I have this set to point to, I would have previously changed the HOSTS and profile files manually, however I managed to make a script which changes these easily with the use of one command to launch the script.The problem I'm having is getting it to use the "export" command. I am aware this would have to be launched in the parent shell rather than the child and so I made a seperate script which has "export SIP_DOMAIN="test.blah.net" in it and had the first script "source" it. This doesn't work and I've probably done something somewhere that is incredibly stupid.

I am trying to figure out how I can export my evolution contacts information into a Thunderbird application on my desktop (at work).

View 6 Replies View RelatedI have a USB disk which has 2 partitions. It is the default behavior in the OS (Lucid 10.04 64 bit) that upon connecting a USB (be it thumb drive or hard disk) it will mount it in:
/media.
I have 2 partitions on the USB hard disk as follows:
ls -l /media
drwxrwxrwx 2 tkmsr tkmsr 2048 2010-02-12 04:12 HPLAUNCHER
drwx------ 7 tkmsr tkmsr 4096 1970-01-01 05:30 vol1
drwx------ 1 tkmsr tkmsr 20480 2011-01-03 17:43 vol2
I want to share vol2 on nfs. Here is the /etc/exports file entry on nfs server
/media/vol2 192.168.1.0/24(rw,sync,no_subtree_check)
On the client machine I tried to mount the above nfs volume
mount -t nfs 192.168.1.19:/media/vol2 /mnt/nfs
Things worked well upto here. But I was not able to go inside the mounted volume at the client machine. Hence I checked the permissions on the folder on nfs server they were as follows
drwx------ 1 tkmsr tkmsr 20480 2011-01-03 17:43 vol2
and the share mounted on client machine which was above only had following permissions:
drwx------ 1 client_hostname client_hostname 20480 2011-01-03 17:43 vol2
Considering this to be source of problem I tried to change the permissions at the server:
chmod -R 755 /media/vol2
but this attempt failed..
I checked by mount command the type of file system on USB disk:
/dev/sdb2 on /media/vol1 type vfat (rw,nosuid,nodev,uhelper=udisks,uid=1000,gid=1000,shortname=mixed,dmask=0077,utf8=1,flush)
/dev/sdb5 on /media/vol2 type fuseblk (rw,nosuid,nodev,allow_other,blksize=4096,default_permissions)
/dev/sr1 on /media/HPLAUNCHER type iso9660 (ro,nosuid,nodev,uhelper=udisks,uid=1000,gid=1000,iocharset=utf8,mode=0400,dmode=0500)
and the
/var/log/syslog
shows
Jan 6 10:24:12 tkmsr ntfs-3g[2278]: Mounted /dev/sdb5 (Read-Write, label "vol2", NTFS 3.1)

Jan 6 10:24:12 tkmsr ntfs-3g[2278]: Global ownership and permissions enforced, configuration type 1
Where I see ntfs-3g driver in use for the above volume which I want to export on nfs.Can this be the source of my problems? Or I need to check some thing else? I notice the output of mount command:
/dev/sdb5 on /media/vol2 type fuseblk (rw,nosuid,nodev,allow_other,blksize=4096,default_permissions)
Is there a way I can enforce to load changed permissions on the said USB and change this default behavior.

I'm doing custom minimal OpenSUSE installation and trying to export detailed list of chosen software in yast on USB (FAT32) drive, but cannot locate the drive itself. It definitely is recognized by SUSE, since i can see it in partitioning section, but after that i just can't find it in yast (mnt, media,...).Is there any other way to mount/recognize the drive, because i just don't have any other idea how to backup that chosen software list?

View 9 Replies View RelatedI'm using my home server to netboot into live CDs. To summarize that article, netbooting a liveCD system involves passing an NFS host:/path in kernel's command line, which is subsequently mounted as /cdrom on the live system. The article mentions copying the contents of the iso image to a place on the hard drive, but I see no reason for this, since the contents need to be read-only anyway, which is easy to achieve by mounting the iso through a loop device:
Code:
# mount
...
/dev/loop0 on /mnt/kubuntu-lucid-amd64 type iso9660 (ro)
/dev/loop1 on /mnt/kubuntu-natty-amd64 type iso9660 (ro)

Now, I am using NFS to mount a regular (rw, HDD) directory which I use as a network drive and I can mount any subdirectory and still access all the files within, ie. when I export /data on the server, I can still mount /data/downloads on the client:
Code:
server:# exportfs
/data 192.168.1.4/32
client:$ sudo mount -t nfs 192.168.1.1:/data/downloads /mnt/netshare
[code]....
Is it possible to export just /mnt and be able to mount any/all of the subdirectories? NFS doesn't like going across multiple file systems:
Code:
server:# ls -al /mnt/kubuntu-natty-i386/
total 3532
dr-xr-xr-x 11 root root 4096 2011-04-27 11:29 .
drwxr-xr-x 7 root root 4096 2011-07-25 21:46 ..

When I try to export just /mnt and mount /mnt/kubuntu-natty-i386 on the client, the mount succeeds but the mounted directory is empty.
I'm aware that one can export make variables to other makefiles; however, how does one export them to the environment of $(shell)? Take the example below:
Code:
export TEST
VARIABLE=$(shell echo $$TEST)
.PHONY: all
all:
#$(VARIABLE)
In this example, I might call make TEST=test. The goal is for $TEST to be available to the environment of the shell escape. This is because I need its value in a script which is called. For example:
Code:
VARIABLE=$(shell i-need-TEST.sh)My current solution is the following:VARIABLE=$(shell export TEST="$(TEST)"; i-need-TEST.sh) but this only works if I know all if the variables needed at that point (as opposed to being able to export variables in included makefiles.) Is there an easy solution?
I have Alienvault (which is debian based) running on an offline network. I need to have a repo server on that network in order to provide updates/other installation sources. Currently I have configured Ubuntu Server 10.04 as an apt-mirror on an internet-connected network.
What I need to do is find a way to automatically take the newest updates, and export them to disk. I need to mirror the internet-connected-repo server on the offline-network side. But I don't want to burn all 40 gigs or so every time new updates come out. Basically, I'd like to perform incremental backups of the mirror after the first full backup. Is it possible to automate this daily?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to setup a small network between my old and new laptops to transfer my personal data. They are now linked with a crossover cable and they see each other.The old one has a dual-boot setup with WinXp and Ubuntu 9.10.The new one with Win7 and Ubuntu 9.10.I tried samba but it was very slow even using Windows in both computers: maximum transfer rates were about 1,5 Mib/sec.I tried SSH using ubuntu on both pcs and it is reliable and much faster, 5 Mib/sec. But I wanted more...I installed the NFS server on the old one and exported the NTFS partition where my data resides with sync and ro options.
I installed the NFS client on the new one and i'm able to mount the remote partition.Now, when I transfer my files I get very high speed, more than 10 Mib/sec but after a while I get a "Stale NFS file handler" error but I really didn't touch any file in the old pc and the connection is always up.Searching on the web I found that NFS had some troubles exporting NTFS partitions in the past but should be fully compatible with them since the last versions of ubuntu.
