General :: Coloring The Z Shell But Don't Color Prompt

General :: Shell Script To Prompt For Input
Jun 14, 2011I would like to run some existing scripts and send it to a text file:
Note: 'script' is an exist shell script
Note: '/opt/2011jun15/my.db' auto generates everyday with only changes to the directory 2011jun15 base on the current date
currently i will need to run the script manually and make changes to the path below, change directory name 2011jun15 daily and text file new2011jun15.txt ./script -f /opt/2011jun15/my.db > new2011jun15.txt
Am i able to write a shell script to prompt me for a change of path for only '2011jun15' and 'new2011jun15.txt'?
It will be great if i can automate the whole process?

Debian Configuration :: Change Prompt Color In Bash Shell?
Jan 13, 2010I am getting more and more comfortable working with the shell, thus I would like to change its prompt color to my liking, as it will be easier for me to distinguish commands vs. outputs.
I've read a couple of instructions of how to change the .bashrc file and am familiar with what the codes in PS1 mean. Except, this file can be intimidating to newbie eyes.
Where exactly on the file is it that I need to make the change?
Here is what I am trying to do. I would like my prompt to like exactly like the prompt I use in Backtrack - which consist in two different colors, one for the host and another for the pwd. Here is what the Backtrack .bashrc file looks like:
# /etc/profile: This file contains system-wide defaults used by
# all Bourne (and related) shells.
# Set the values for some environment variables:
export MINICOM="-c on"
export MANPATH=/usr/local/man:/usr/man:/usr/X11R6/man:/usr/local/share/man:/usr/bin/man:/usr/share/man
export HOSTNAME="`cat /etc/HOSTNAME`"
[Code]....
I also read that in order to have the same results when I log in as root, I will have to copy the modified .bashrc file into /root
CentOS 5 Server :: FreeNX - Cannot Get Shell Prompt In GNOME Terminal Window
Jun 9, 2010I've created a brand new CentOS 5.4 (Final) 64bit machine AMI on Amazon EC2. This was based off an existing image. I was able to follow the wiki to add NX server. I am using WIN XP desktop for NX client.
I can connect to the EC2 machine and get the GNOME desktop fine. I see the usual CentOS desktop and poke around.
Q/Problem:
I expected to open the Terminal window and get a shell prompt to su into root user (I need to be root to install some software that needs GUI). I do not want to install this from my plain SSH connection to EC2 (hence the NX server etc.).
When I open the Terminal window, all I get is the NX>105 prompt. I need to get to a shell prompt so I can su into root. For life of me, I cannot get around this prompt (I looked at NX documentation too). Note that this is a prompt NOT on client but on the remote machine. I do not need this as I'm already authenticated and logged in to remote GNOME desktop.
Obviously the TERMINAL is running some NX start up script (I've no idea which one). If there is some other way to sudo into root?

View 1 Replies View RelatedSoftware :: Customer Support Portal Application?
May 13, 2010Some good open source software for these requirements:
1. Support center
customers can submit issues(or tickets) to our support staff and support staff can process these issues on the web or via email.
2. Knowledge base
Multi languages support are required, and admin also can apply the access privilege to each account/group.
3. Document or File download (FTP?)
customers can download the software hotfix , patch, Presentation file or even upload their log files. Admin can control the access privilege easily.
Is there any single open source software can meet these requirement at the same time?
Security :: Network Appliance Shipped To Customer Premises ?
Nov 2, 2010We make network appliances for process control. The owners and operators are not supposed to open them. But they can.
For unrelated reasons, we put our homegrown software onto a USB that is inserted into the appliance. To keep prying eyes off it, we encrypt it. The key is on the appliance internal drive, which can be removed and mounted elsewhere by enterprising IP thief, who can then find the key to the encrypted USB drive.
Any ideas for closing this vector down?
For casual snoopers, we have password protected grub.
Calling cadillackid: would be very pleased to hear about your approach to locking down devices sent to remote premises.
