inside my Linux I am using virtual box to launch windows xp. I have one shared folder between the operating systems so as to share my files As I can not trust virtual box and windows xp... can you suggest me an easy way to take daily backups of one of the folders I have inside that shared folder?The files are mostly html files so the file size is not so much of a problem (at least I think!)How can I take daily backups so to not lose something?

What would be the best way to automatically copy all of the data off of a library of cds to a specific folder on the computer? I was thinking of running a bash script but I've run into a few snags figuring out the correct way to do it. Mainly due to the fact that the cd drive is mounted in a different folder in /media each time I insert a new diskAlso, the mounting and unmounting process causes it's own problems, but I think that could be covered by a for loop that checks /mtab every few seconds or so.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am attempting to copy files from one server to an external USB drive on a second server. Both servers are running custom RedHat Linux, kernel 2.6. Both are setup as Check Point SecurePlatform (one is a log server and the other a management server). I am trying to archive files from one (HP DL380 G5) to the second (HP DL380 G6). I am not able to archive directly to the external usb drive when connected to the HP DL380 G5 (data gets corrupted and switches to read-only access). The external USB drive has no issues when connected to the HP DL380 G6 server, thus my reason for trying to copy the files across servers.
When I attempt to use scp to copy files between the server, I am prompted for the password. Once entered the debug shows the authentication is successful, but then no files are copied (see log below). I have tried searching for potential answers, but none have panned out. Unfortunately I can't yet post the actual scp debug log output as some of the text is viewed as a URL and not yet allowed for me. I have changed all the atsign symbols to '(a)' to avoid the URL inference.
Output log from scp attempt follows:

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a folder and its contents with the following permissions: 2750 (sguid bit). With this I ensure that a newly created file or folder inside that folder will adopt the SGUID. The problem is that if I copy files into that folder, these copied files don't adopt the SGUID. So I have to execute constantly the command: chgrp -R thegroup nameofthefolder everytime I copy or uncompress something into that folder. Is there any way to achieve this (force the SGUID even in copy and uncompress commands) automatically?

Now I've just tried to open a new spreadsheet and I'm suddenly getting a highly condensed view. The cells are about 1mm X 4mm. If I expand them by selecting and dragging, then try to copy data from another spreadsheet onto the new one, the data shrinks to the small scale -- unreadable.

2 107MB 120GB 120GB primary ext3 lvm
the OS, data and programs are on /dev/sda.
I'd like to copy the full directories and files to the newly added /dev/sdb wich has, as you can see, less space. Also note that /dev/sda has only about 3.6Gigs uses, so it will no doubt easily go into /dev/sdb. How can I do the full copy, and yet make /dev/sdb bootable just like /dev/sda (just as if it was cloned by Ghost)? I've checked dd, but AFAIK, it needs that both source and target devices be the same in size.
I have a hard drive with a bad PCB board. It stays on when not under heavy load and it will restart if I copy too much data off it. So far I have had good luck doing folders under 500 MB in size if I copy one folder to my good hard drive, wait five minutes, copy another, etc.
If I mount the bad drive and try to copy a folder of several GBs in size it will start and then stop as the hard drive restarts. When I try to mount the drive again Linux says it can't read the superblock. I have several folders with over 30 GB of data in many different folders.
What I am looking for is a way of copying a folder in Linux such that the commands grab the whole folder in chunks with a timed break in-between.
I have a PC with OpenSuse 11.1. Beside root there are two other users on the system. Now I have installed a new PC with OpenSuse 11.2. Only one user is set up until now. I installed the hard disk from OpenSuse 11.1 into the new PC on IDE Primary Slave, because I wanted to copy some files from the old system. OpenSuse 11.2 has mounted the old disk automatically in /media/disk and /media/disk-1. The problem is that I can't find any files or directories from the users. I could find only one file from root in /media/disk-1/root/Desktop. Why can't I see the files? Does it have anything to do with UID or SUID?

Allright, I made a simple script that tarballs my SQL databases weekly and saves them to a backup harddrive.If possible, I would like to have the backups uploaded to a remote server for storage. But, I must have the script delete the previous upload for size contraints.I can only use rsync, scp or sftp. Haven't used any of them really before... Here's my basic tarball-backup script:
