General :: Executing Shell Script With 654 Permissions Inside Another One
Apr 22, 2010I have this scenario, where in I'm calling a shell script inside another shell script. The only criteria here is that the embedded script will have 654 permissions and the master script should be able to execute this embedded script. The sample code is given below:
#!/usr/bin/ksh
maindir=/usr/home01/temp/dir
bindir=${maindir}/batch/bin
${bindir}/test.ksh -d ${dblogin} -i ${datadir} -r ${filedt} > ${tmp_log}
The test.ksh which has 654 permissions is called by the main.ksh script and when I try to run it using ./main.ksh, it fails with the error "Execute permissions denied."

Jan 28, 2010I know that using alias I can run a whole command with a shortcut. But my requirement is to use parts of a long command and in between I have to pass some user defined values.
E.g. Suppose I have to routinely copy a directory to another remote directory on a remote machine.The remote machine name is quite long as well as the directory path to which I want to copy the files into.So the command to do scp would look like this[URL]Now I want to do some sort of aliasing (say "ecp") so that I just need to pass the source_directory name and the ecp command and do my job

I am wondering if there is an easier way? I suspect, a custom script is in order, but perhaps someone else has done something similar before.

General :: Bash Shell Scripting Request?
Feb 27, 2011I am working on a simple script that should take two command line arguments, a [number] and a [name]. The first thing the script should do is check to make sure that no more and no less than two command line arguments have been entered when calling the script - an error message should be delivered if the condition is not true.
If two args have been entered, then the message 'processing "scriptname"' should appear, where scriptname is the name of the script being called. The script should then write to the screen "Hi [name]!", and should write this phrase [number] of times. For example, the command $ myscript 2 joe would produce the output: I have read the manual many times looking for examples, and I am very close by virtue of my own efforts. Further, I have searched these forums and others for good examples, which have also gotten me very close. Still my script is not completing the objective, and I am wondering if someone could point me in the right direction. Script:

This user can access the FTP fine, but he can also access SSH which I don't want to allow him to do. If I set his shell access to /bin/false then he can't connect to the FTP.

View 2 Replies View RelatedGeneral :: Clear Screen Command For BASH Shell
Jan 21, 2010I am unable to use clear or cls command on bash shell. I have recently installed Cygwin and am using that for practicing unix commands.
I see that I can use Ctrl + L to clear the screen. I created an alias in my .bashrc to do the same as
alias cls='^L'
This is how i defined other aliases e.g.
And they work. Hence I assume cls will work too but this is what I get when I try to give cls on command prompt. Am i missing something? Is there a way to do this?
Then someone suggested, You cannot alias keystrokes to commands or vice versa. You could just alias cls to an echo command: echo -en "x0c"
And I added the following to .bashrc,
Sourced the .bashrc file. No errors but cls still does not clear the screen. Infact when I typed the echo -en "x0c on command prompt as well, nothing happened. What does this command do?
