I am getting little bit difficult in sorting the date ranges which are in a field like:
How make a sort as per the Month and date , i mean result should be as per the month and date wise. If i go for the sort -M , i am not able to get the list as per date of the particular month.

View 6 Replies View RelatedDoes anyone know how I might enable my boot to Ubuntu again? Here is what I have found but do not know what I should fool with. I thought I would ask for help before I screw it up worse.I have Ubuntu 10.04.1 installed inside W7 effectivly creating a dual boot system. It's been running fine for about 2 months. Now when I try to boot into Ubuntu by selecting the boot Ubuntu option in the Windows Boot Manager, it fails and goes back to Windows Boot Manager. There are 2 screens that flash by in about 1/2 a second when enter is pressed after the ubuntu selection and before it reverts again to the Boot Manager. With the help of a camera and good timing, I captured a picture of the text displayed.
The first screen displays;Try (hd0, 0) NTFS5 No wubildrTry (hd0, 1) NTFS5 _The second screen displays;error unknown command loadfonterror file not foundIn the windows C: drive I find the 2 files; C:wubildr created 12/19/10 size 87kbC:wubildr.mbr created 11/7/10 size 8kb (created the date I installed Ubuntu)In C:ubuntuwinboot... I find the same two files with the same size and creation dates as in the windows c: drive. In addition I also find a file, C:ubuntuwinboot.wubuildr.cfg, created 11/7/10, size 2kb, described as a MS Office Outlook configuration file.There are also a files;C:ubuntudisksootgrub but the grub directory is empty. The grub directory was created 11/7/10. Should there be a file in the grub directory?

I was going to do a rsync -r -a -z -v -p -e sshto move some files frome server to another, but then realized all I really need are files which have dates starting June 1, 2008 to current.

I need to get the modified date on a file in linux to use in a script.I tried using 'ls -l' on the file, but this caused problems when the date turned from a single digit into a double. The reason for the problem was because I was parsing the result string on spaces.How can I get the date of the last time a file was modified so I can use it in a script? For example, if a file was modified on 1/11/2010, I need the 11.

I'd like to know how do I rotate the audit logs under "/var/log/audit/audit.log" every 6 month. Currently I have set the parameter inside /etc/audit/auditd.conf to "KEEP_LOGS" (Previously "ROTATE" )and logs files are generated up to the size 5M and never deleted. Do I need to change inside "/etc/audit/audit.rules" file?

I just recently switched from Windows to Ubuntu 10.04, and I remember that Windows had a disk check. I have no problems with my computer, but is it a good idea to run fsck every few months? Does Ubuntu automatically do this for me? Or this unnecessary unless I have a serious problem?

After alot of swearing ang scratching of the head I've resorted to trying this from i live cd, but with the same results. I know I've been able to connect using livecd before so I'm a bit worried that something might have happened with the hardware.
What I'm hoping for though is some way to determine that it is the sim-card and/or something on the operator side that is bork.
how to further pinpoint the issue? And/or troubleshoot the hardware? I should be able to send AT-commands directly to the modem, does anyone know how and/or the syntax for establishing the data connection?
EDIT: I'm using an Asus eee 901 with builtin 3G modem.
it seems Ubuntu can't just BURN CD or DVD. I've used Brasero, GnomeBaker, K3B - They all miserably FAIL.
Plus, they Break My DVD Drives, after trying sooo Many Times, leaves it behind useless.
I bought 3 DVD Drives: Lite-On, Sony and LG. In a span of 3 Months, UBUNTU completely DESTROYED all of them.
I'm not sure why. BUT first, I find Ubuntu can't burn using above Applications. 2nd, DVD stops working.
Error message from K3B, using it, since it's the most stable I've found. cdrdao crashed, file permissions problems, perhaps TAO will fix this, and a lot more of these crap.
I have an intel HDA chipset that desperately wants to work. I have it plugged into my receiver and sound only occassionally works. I say occassionally because I will hear some sound, then my receiver will flash hdmi, as if it is switching to the new stream, I hear silence. Then shortly later, the receiver will provide sound, then again it will 'switch' and i hear silence. To work around this, I had an optical line working and somehow had alsa using ONLY that for the audio (bypassing the HDMI completely). Then one day when I was trying to the audio fixed for some specific application, I broke it! I cannot figure for the life of me how to make alsa ONLY use my optical line. Of course any suggestions on how to get the hdmi to work is even better.

After a power failure (UPS power button was hit accidentally), I logged into the system via ssh and found that I had lost all data since my last reboot, which was 4 months ago. It was as if I had a perfect snapshot of my machine from 4 months ago. Everything, database files, logs, all report as if the machine had been off for 4 months. Fortunately, I have quality backups of all my data so I am able to recover, but I have never had such a problem before and I cannot figure out what happened.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI've got rkhunter installed and regularly do scans immediately before & after updates & if I get warnings about 'file property updates' after the update I use 'rkhunter --propupd' to give me a clean run.I'm about to setup a ubuntu computer for my nan, I want to enable automatic security updates so she doesn't have to do anything to keep her system secure. I was planning on running rkhunter when I go to her house (about once a month) and check the dates in the resulting rkhunter.log warnings with those in the var/log/apt/history.log to see if legitimate updates caused any rkhunter warnings. I've noticed though that the 'Current file modifiation time:' in the rkhunter.log warnings are incorrect.
My system seems to be about 15 days behind the actual date, I've now run rkhunter --propupd so I have no warnings but got this one off another forum post to show what I mean:
Current file modification time: 1283341157 (01-Sep-2010 06:39:17)
I believe that the '1283341157' is the time in some strange format and the date in brackets is what rkhunter thinks it might be in human format.
1) How to interpret the 'strange date format' (1283341157 in the line above)?
2) If there's a way of configuring the date in rkhunter so that they're correct in rkhunter.log?
3) If there's a better way of keeping her system up-to-date & secure, it's her first computer & she's 86 so I think setting up automatic security updates is the way to go, it'll be one less thing to overwhelm her!
