View 4 Replies View RelatedWe often require to find an equivalent text command for any GUI operation. Just as an example we click on a folder (say ABC) from the current directory in order to see the contents of that directory. The equivalent command for it to happen would be->
Code:
cd ABC ls Now the thing is that we often don't know what that equivalent command will be. So I want to know that is there any way out to find it. What I want to do is that I shall perform any operation using mouse in the GUI mode(whatever operation it could be) and then I can see a log file to see what I actually did last(rather what the command would have been if I have worked in the text mode)...

View 6 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to run a command with the 'at' scheduler in Linux Mint 9. It's basically a ssh connection to my Smoothwall firewall to tell it to shut down, but that part isn't really important. The problem I have is that I can't get the 'at' schedule command to do much. I can type commands into the terminal and they work perfectly. If I enter exactly the same command into 'at' nothing happens.
For example, I can type 'plink -load smoothwall' into a terminal and a new ssh terminal comes up asking for my password to make an ssh connection. If I create an 'at' job with the same command, ie:
Code:
$ at now + 5 minutes
at> plink -load smoothwall
at> <Ctrl-d>
$
then nothing at all happens when the 5 minutes are up. I've checked that the job exists by doing an 'atq' command. Obviously there's something about 'at' that I don't understand. I've googled, I've looked in this forum and I've looked in a copy of 'The Linux Bible 2010' all without success. I've tried various alternative ways of entering the command for a couple of hours and I'm still stuck.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have Microsoft Windows Xp installed on my Primary Drive C: and I had a Mint boot disc that I would pop in and load from. Well I got tired of this disc and installed a new hard drive in my computer so I could use Mint as a secondary OS. Everything went good in the install, and I put Mint on the second drive. But when I boot my computer the GRUB menu only shows Linux Helena Mint 8 to load from and no Xp. Xp is still currently installed on the computer in the Primary drive, but how do I inlcude it in the GRUB boot menu or boot it at all?

Does anyone know of any equivalent commands to setgroups or another way of dropping groups for that session and not permanently?

The main thing I want to know is: how to translate my GUI actions into command-line code. I want to know if there is a command that outputs all the commands being made by interaction with my GUI.Say, for example that I type this command and then open a file, the terminal would then print: "gnome-open /{path to file}".(The reason I ask is because I need to know a command to open with a non-default program. I have downloaded MiniCopier, so I want to add a launcher for it to my panel, by figuring out the code to launch it, but the default app to open ".jar" files is archive manager, rather than Java, so "gnome-open" doesn't do the trick. I've even changed the default to Java and still "gnome-open" uses archive manager, while double-clicking will use the new default=java. Weird...)

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have 4 linux nat firewall boxes on 4 seperate networks all plugged into one WRT54G with the wireless function disabled. The WAN port is DHCP to my ISP modem (comcast.) WRT54G is set to gateway mode. WRT54G is not handing out IP's to clients, DHCP set to disable. Modem is a bridge and hands out dynamic internet routable ip addresses. All 4 linux boxes eth0 are static ip's and go to the WRT54g. Each Linux box is a dhcp nat firewalled router to my clients. Problem: DNS is not being resolved to my ISP from my clients. I can ping from a client to any where on the net or through my system. Tried placing the ISP DNS numbers in the /etc/resolv.conf file of servers but did not work.
Question does the WRT54G nat translate the ISP's DNS numbers also and to what? If so placing those numbers in the /etc/resolv.conf might solve the issue. Last bit of info. On one system there is 32 clients using win7 and dhcp. Some clients can surf all the time. Some never, some intermitently. IF I restart the server the above will applies to different clients. The same thing happens on the other 3 server systems. Attaching the Linux box directly to the modem and setting eh0 to DHCP I have no problems. I know it's not the linux boxes. It's placing the WRT54G between the modem and the Linux box that creates the loss of DNS resolution.

View 8 Replies View RelatedUnder unix/linux, there is this extremely useful program screen: it's for bash, text-only, and I can detach a session, log out (the session is still running though), log in later (even from a different computer) and resume the session exactly as I left it. My question is, is there an equivalent to screen for X? So what I want to do is: work remotely with ssh -X in an X-session on a remote linux machine, log out, then later log in from a different computer again with ssh -X and then re-attach the X-session; practically resuming work from the moment when I logged out before. Is this possible?
