I am facing a basic problem in RHEL 5.2. Some of files in a mounted showing ? in place of owner and group owner.
root# find /data/abc -nouser
listing those files.
How to delete those files because
root# find /data/abc -nouser -exec rm -rf {} ;
showing error access is denied.
How can I make a virtual host (right now I just use NameVirtualHost *:80) that will load the same page for every domain that matches imap.domain.com, smtp.domain.com, or pop3.domain.com?

Code:
[jonas@webserver html]$ ls -l | grep file

The directory that holds this file is html :

I can import projects to my cvs repository only when the repository set to group owner cvs. Which is fine to me.
But I found the project folder/files that I imported into the repository have group name other than cvs (in fact, that's my username). And that prevents others to check out my code.
I'm interested in viewing the owners of files on a Windows Server 2003 share (mounted on a Linux computer). These "owners" would be users in Active Directory. If it's not possible to see the username, I wonder if it will at least show a unique identifier. Currently it says all files are owned by root with an "ls -l".

View 4 Replies View RelatedMany folders within a subdirectory some of which have lots of data in and some of which have only one specific file called produkt.fil inside.I need a command to find and delete those folders that contain ONLY the file produkt.fil - if other files exist (doesnt matter what they are) then they should be left alone. Note: produkt.fil exists in all of the folders always.

I like the "Ubuntu" sudo philosophy and wanted to setup this sudo the same way on my Debian system. I was happy when I found that I just have to do the following:
-create a group 'admin'
-adduser christian admin
-visudo
-add the line: %admin ALL=(ALL) ALL
Then I tried sudo rm -rf / to check if sudo works. All worked fine. No, seriously, I can move around files that belong to the root and such, so sudo somehow works. But when creating new files with sudo, like e.g.
tar xzf myZippedTarball
these files belong to user 41034 and to the group users instead of root root:
drwxr-xr-x 7 41034 users 4096 2009-11-01 01:07 libsvm-2.9
Certainly, this is not the way I want to have. The user 41034 doesn't even show up in /etc/passwd...
I'm trying to download a file and extract it in one line, but the extracted file is owned by me instead of root even though I'm using sudo:
Code:
sudo sh -c 'wget [URL]'
If I don't try to extract the file, it is owned by root as I expected:
Code:
sudo sh -c 'wget [URL]'
I used to use the root account for everything for more than a year then I moved to a user account for security reasons but almost all files had root as owner so I could not go 5 minutes without having to change to root and then change the owner of a file to my username to make it usable. I got fed up with this so I just changed the owner of every file on the system to my username instead of root.
command chown -R myusername * in the base directory /
Everything was fine until I restarted and the login screen became non functional and I got 2 error messages related to xsession and gnome errors. I think this is because the login screen might have its own user account and it cant access the files for the login process because it is owned by myusername. So my question is what is the user-name of the login account and what folders/files need to have their owner changed so the login process can work? I'm on 10.04 lucid.
Why is there no Delete when I right click like there is with Windows in ubuntu? Pretty much everything else is there like new folder and so on Is there some way to add it? Also why when i delete something does it not ask me if I am sure that i want to delete that file?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm confused about "hard link" feature. I've been learning from my UNIX Academy DVDs training that hard links to a file can be many and each of them is an effective filename for the associated data. So let assume that we have some very sensitive data in a file and we want it to be deleted and file has 20 links. I "delete" a file, but in fact I deleted only one "name" of it. My understanding from the training that data is still there until we delete the last associated hard link. But how can I find the names of all of them? If we have the names, they can be removed one by one. Or may be there's command that can trace all the "names" and remove them at once?
