General :: Configure To Allow Me Access Everything With No "insufficient Rights" Messages?
Nov 17, 2010
I am the only user and will not add any more users. What I would like to do is configure to allow me access everything with no "insufficient rights" messages. Further, I would like to be able to operate the GUI in the root user mode when desired.

When booting PartImage from a USB SysRescCD, at the PartImage 'root@sysresccd / root %' prompt, I try each of the following three commands:- touch /media/partimage- chown root /media/partimage- chmod 666 media/partimageAnd each time, I receive the following error message: 'Changing permissions of 'media/partimage': Read-only file system.'The attempt is denied.How can I grant PartImage root access rights to this directory?

On my Debian server I installed Samba for sharing directories in my local network. I know how to set access rights but I have a problem. I would like to allow an user (example "nobody") to create files or directories in a shared directory but to deny to modify or delete something.How can I do that?Second question, on a file, I know that we can set rights for "u", "g" and "o". But like the NTFS permissions, can we apply rights for each users?

I configure named and stumble upon the following problem: named is serious about user rights, every config file named uses should be named:named. I set rights to named:named as follows, but they get changed to root:named when I restart named as root. The same thing happens with SELinux context. This results in access denied type errors.

When I insert some homemade DVDs of a friend, I can't view its contents. DVD works fine on windows XP, but not on opensuse. Dolphin gives an error: access denied to /media/071114_1638.I can't do a chown command because dvd is read-only...And when I do an ls -l I get:
Code:
ls -la /media/071114_1638/
ls: can't access /media/071114_1638/.: Permission denied
ls: can't access /media/071114_1638/..: Permission denied

I've got a problem with my usb pen drives. If I put some data inside, from the 2nd time I insert the pendrive in the computer I can't write on the usb pen, I can't change my files, and also they are hidden. I've formatted them with the format/partitioner tool in yast, but I can't solve my problem. This happens with all my usb pendrives and also with the sd of my camera. Is there something that I can do to solve this inconvenient?

Problems with launching data files of the nas and saving to them is a kde problem. The dot desktop files have to contain access rights for smb/http etc and even when given these it still will not work. I have mainly concentrated on getting the VLC video player to work as it is capable of playing from just about any source, comes with codecs etc etc. Amazing package really.
Pure K apps such as kwrite at least work fine. I tried setting up samba but to no avail.
As dropping a file into VLC's focus didn't do anything I created a vlc desktop icon and dragged the nas file onto that. It plays and a kde error message pops up from plasma shell - can't find file!
I enable kde automount. The content of that when it starts is disturbing. It shows my system disks a detachable and not attached! No need to worry though. I selected mount on log in and attachment where the server was shown. VLC still wouldn't work.
Next I enable NFS file transfers on the NAS. This has allowed me to use open with directly onto an avi file on the nas. I can also click launch them. Remaining problem is opening files on the nas from within VLC. Up pops the kde message "you can only select local files". The file manager here seems to be an instance of dolphin. This suggest that there is going to be a problem saving files to the nas as well. Looks to be the case. VLC can convert formats and all sorts of things. If I select a file locally and try and convert it and save to the nas up pops the "you can only select local files" as soon as I select ok having set the path and file name.
Strange thing is that working transfers seem to be using CIF even though it took an NFS enable to get it partly working via KDE's automount. Dolphin only allows a CIF set up which has a distinct advantage as a direct ip address can be entered. The automount has introduced a very very long delay before kde is up and running following a log in. Samba is even worse in this respect and both seem to lack a method of direct ip input which means they have to find the server.
One other aspect. As far as NFS is concerned from a very recent post elsewhere nautilus works. Pass on CIF. And of course it's all instantaneous and ok on windows even on vista. Enabling the TV protocol on the nas has confused Vista as it only wants to connect like that and needs drivers. Might also be down to having NFS enabled though. MS might not like that.
I have filed all of this on bugzilla if anyone would like to vote - bug number 695648. Seems to me that the CIFs route should be the default for ease with many users on home networks. I'm also sure that the problem is basically KDE preventing aps from accessing the nas.

Is it possible to give user only FTP access / browsing rights for certain directory within /srv/www/htdocs and prevent same user to browse all other directories, even user's /home directory on that server?

I have Unbuntu 2.32.1 Build date 14/4/11 I have Samba Installed I also have 8 Sata drives all with NTFS most of them have a lot of data on them. All my drives were used on an old windows 7 system, and now I wish to have them in a server setup.
My clients are all windows users apart from 1 witch is an Unbuntu desktop user. The problem I have is access rights or permissions none of the clients can gain access to my NTFS shares. I am using a GUI on my server (Gnome) as I am not very clued up with command lines in Unbuntu just yet.

a friend of mine is doing a small website-project in school (group of ~6 people). They want to use git as VCS and need acces to a server. I have an account on the server from university, but - of course - no root access.
I could create private/public keys for them, to SSH into my account, but I don't want them to have this power I found 'git-shell', which seems to be used for restricted access with git (although I'm not sure whether I understood the functionality).
My question is: Is it possible to configure SSH keys in that way, that the server runs them (and only them) in git-shell in a specified directory (using ~/.ssh/{config,authorized_keys})?
So that they can
- log in with their SSH key
- use git, execute scripts etc.
- use git push/pull from their private+school PC
- work only in a specific directory (like chroot) eg. ~/web-project/

I have my system set up to where the router(dd-wrt) will send it's syslog messages to my Linux PC system. I am using shorewall as my firewall. I have two questions: How can I configure shorewall to allow the messages from my router? If I use my router IP address to allow the messages to come through the firewall, will this be a great security risk as anything from the internet can come through on that router ipaddress?

I am trying to make my home server accessible to the whole web. I have installed Nginx on my Fedora 15 64-bit Linux machine, and it works with localhost but it doesn't work online or allow other computers on the network to access it via the IP address. It keeps coming back with: Could not connect
I have port forwarding. I have even tried different ports but they all seem to be blocked. What could be wrong? I have a netgear router.

My memory could be failing but I thought there was a tool, possibly in Yast, to access the boot logs in earlier versions. Can't find it now though. Is there such a tool other than console?I should clarify in case I am using the wrong terminology that I seek the log which scrolls up the screen during the booting process. Reason is that I see several errors and warnings there and wish to investigate further.

Under Linux, I would like to be able to launch anything from command line in a "safe" environment, i.e. be assured that it can't read or write any file on my computer, and even better if it couldn't access the network.I thought about creating a user with reading rights only in the current folder (and nowhere else), and su to this user to launch the command, would this work ? And what about the network ?

I am using linux mint and have installed Netbeans on it but whenever I run netbeans from accounts other than root it throws an error for not having permission to start glassfish server of netbeans. I also tried running this application using run as administrator option but then the application does not start.
So is there a way to assign netbeans admin rights permanently so that whenever I start this application from other accounts I should not face this error?
