View 7 RepliesI have a file that was created in Virtual Machine Manager and I need to get it out of the virtual operating system(windowsXP). Writing to a USB would be ideal but that hasn't been working since I upgraded to Fedora12.Is there anyway I can mount the image to retrieve the file?wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/loop0, missing codepage or helper program, or other error In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try dmesg | tail or so mounting as fvat doesn't work either.

Doing these commands for multiple command line file inputs is the goal. So I can just type ./script.sh *.mkv in my terminal.This is what I have so far, but it doesn't work whatsoever.
I'm a little bit confused with partitioning the filesystem in Linux. the difference between creating the file system with fdisk and mkfs (when formatting the disk). I can't clearly tell my problem, so please look at this picture:
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a server with logs running. People connect to server. This server is running the same application as a failover just in case it stops. I have a doubt that some clients are connecting from different places as the nodeID is changed SO I need to make a script which reads both logs that are called server1.log and server2.log and where it finds a nodeID which does not match in both logs it action with fail2ban
I don't know whether this can be done directly via fail2ban since it is the program which I know that reads between logs but as far as I know it cannot match data with another log
This is an Example:
Code:
Log 1
03:00:08.905 client qwe696s@894b226f7846d9df, running version 2.1
Log 2
03:00:08.905 client qwe696s@894b226f7846d9dd, running version 2.1
Quote:
qwe696s is the username
894b226f7846d9df is the NODEID
AS you can see from the logs nodeid is different

I have security guidelines for my business OS which require me to active screensaver.
Nevertheless, I dislike screensavers because I sometime read a while, but I do not want to go offline from my IM in the meantime.
Anyways, I am looking for a solution. So I though about writing a little shell script (connected with a cronjob), which just moves the mouse every 10 minutes or so.
Unfortunately, I have no clue how to interact with the mouse in a shell script.
When I try something like
php -i | less
Less is not responding to hotkeys, but prints them like pressing "q" results in statusline
:q

Pressing ENTER like "executes" the keycode and less perfoems the action. Piping trivial small stuff work however... OS: Fedora 14
I use the Actions feature of KDE's Klipper utility to run certain commands when I copy something into the clipboard that matches a particular regular expression. Unfortunately, I have to turn on Enable Clipboard Actions and select the command from a menu every time I copy something that I want to run the command on. I'd like to have that command run automatically instead.
You'd think this was possible, as there is an automatic checkbox in the action settings dialog box:
Unfortunately, that appears to do nothing. The documentation included with Klipper does not indicate what that checkbox is supposed to do.
Is it possible to configure Klipper to run a command automatically if the contents of the clipboard matches a regular expression? If not, is there another way to accomplish this?
I want to use a combination that avoids alphabetic/punctuation characters because that way I have a consistent physical position on different layouts. Control_R+Menu fits that requirement and is also located at a very convenient position.This combination used to work in KDE 3.5 for the global kxkb switch action, or any keyboard action for that matter. In KDE 4, trying to assign Menu by pressing the Menu key always activates the keyboard trap widget's context menu, in this case giving me the What's this?How do I work around that problem? Alternatively, do you have a snippet that I can paste into $HOME/.kde/share/config/kglobalshortcutsrc and which works?

I have some file tools on a mint machine that I would rather not install on my mac laptop. Mainly because of the vastness of apt-get and the low risk of installation failure. Anyway, every so often I have a file that I want to process in place using some remote tool. Both machines can ssh right in to each other so I was figuring there must be some script or tool out there that would allow me to type out something like remote [file] [tool & args] to send my file to the other machine, get it processed, then get it back.

I have installed RDGEN which comes with VPFIT package. When I run the program it says:
"Failed to find help file"
But I ran the program from its main directory where all the files including help files exist. I think maybe the problem is because of this that THEY say:
"Some environment variables should be set before starting RDGEN".
But I do not know what does this mean and how to do that.
These are the variables:
-ATOMDIR
-RD PRSETUP
-RD PRSETUP
-RDSTART
-VPFSETUP
-VPFPLOTS
Would it be possible for you to tell me what does Setting Variable means in this case?

Is there a command that can list the variables that I am using in a script? I mean the variables that I created in the script not the environment or local variables. For example if I have a script that has the following var's like : name=Alex, age=20, postal_code=12345, how can I list them all @ once WITHOUT using echo $name, $age and so on. Imagine I have a lot of variables and i can't echo them all.

I am trying to rename a list of variables in my script using a second list of variables. I want the variables in the second list to replace the variables in the first list such that the first variable in List 1 is renamed after the first variable in List 2, the second variable in List 1 is renamed after the second variable in List 2, the third variable in List 1 is renamed after the third variable in List 2, and so on.
For example:
I know how to rename each file individually, but would like to run Do Loop which can rename all my output files at once.
