General :: How To Edit Rc.local
Jun 23, 2011
I am having big trouble with rc.local on my system.My system is CentOS 5.5 64X.My default startup is is 3, so rc3.d is where I was looking into.rc.local with permissions 755.Inorder to solve the problem I made the following test
.
1. No matter how I edit rc.local, it will not be executed, even a copy from other Linux system that runs rc.local fine.
2. All S99 service under rc3.d won't run when S99local is there.
3. All service executed just fine if S99local removed from rc3.d.
4. If I change S99local to S97local, Anything in S97, S98, S99 won't run.
5. I tested rc.local with Code:echo "rc.local is executed just fine" >> /root/test.txt by adding it after "touch /var/lock/subsys/local" [FAILED, test.txt not found after restart]
6. I tried to execute rc.local with Code:sh /etc/rc.local it was SUCCESSFULLY executed without any error, and everything in rc.local runs fine.

I have a server I can ssh into, and I am also running Ubuntu. How do I edit this remote file using any program I have installed on my local Ubuntu, without copying it to local, editing it, and copying it back?

One of Konqueror's unique features is that i can name a local process as the action in a form. When i submit that form, the local process is executed. Very helpful for certain offline tasks. What would make it even better is if i could find a way to pass some data to that local process from the html page. This could be the content of a hidden input item, etc. Alternatively, if there is a way for Konqueror to create or update a local file with data from the html page, that would acheive the same end.

What command would you use to read about the sync system call (not the sync command)? How would you read a local man page for sync that was kept in the /usr/local/share/man?

I am trying to install tilp, a program for the link between a computer and a Texas Instruments calculator. I have downloaded all the packages to a local directory. I tried telling yum to install all the packages at the same time, though, the dependencies still fail to resolve (though they are all in the directory). I don't know if it would be safe to force install without the dependencies (even though I would install them later).

Let's get clear with all bin and sbin folders(from filesystem hierarchy standard):
So the question is: Why there are so many directories and what are the meanings of /usr/sbin, /usr/local/sbin and /usr/local/bin?
Many programs are distributed through archives and we have to build them from source code. Usually they have makefile so it's quite easy. This process involves creating files in usr/local/lib, usr/local/bin... usr/local/whatever without creating specific folders for a given program.
I think it's not right because if we need to remove the program we have to manually delete every of its files if the program's creator didn't take care of it.

I have a postfix mail server on ubuntu 10.04 lts behind a router. so all local users are fetching/sending mails through ms outlook using local IP. Sometimes when internet goes down and any mail send then it bounced back immediately saying domain not found. Can u please tell me how i configure to hold all mails in postfix server rather than bounce when internet fails and will pass through when restored the internet around 15-30 minutes?

I'd like a way to see all of the devices on my local network and what their local IP address is. I recall that I used wireshark to troubleshoot a similar problem a while back, but it doesn't seem to have a way to see all of the devices- only the traffic. (I'd like to do this without having to physically interface with my router if possible, and I am in an encrypted network if that matters)

I have installed a web server on my local network. Everything is well configured and web pages are shown correctly from Internet (outside the local network) using the domain or the public IP.The issue is if I try to see that web pages (using the domain or the public IP) from inside the local network. In that case the router config page (192.168.1.1) is shown instead of the web pages.From inside the local network I'm only able to see the web pages using the internal IP address (192.168.1.XX).

I come from the Mac world, where I use [URL] to edit text from anywhere in Vim.
Is there anything like that on Linux ? I'm already using "It's All Text" in Firefox, but I'm looking for something broader.
Also, I've looked at this thread, but it's only solutions for software X, and software Y.

I need to change one word in over a thousand pages of HTML. I think sed is the only way to do this, but I've never used sed before.
After reading the documentation, I see that it is pretty easy to alter files to standard output, in other words, the screen.
But I don't want to do just alter text to the screen, I want to alter the original file, else I am not doing any Stream EDiting as near as I can tell.
None of the documentation explains how to take a file, apply sed to alter that file. How do you do this?
Code:
[myuser@myhost dir]#sed s/changethis/tothis/ /mydir/myfile
How do I apply sed to actually make the changes to myfile?

I setup a cron job to trigger a script that I wrote every morning at 12:00 AM, but it does not seem to be working.
This is how I edit the job using crontab -e
Why it isn't triggering at 12:00 am every night. If I run the script manually it works just fine so I know is not the script causing troubles.

I am learning vi and like it so far. I am writing Python code with it and would like to change my tabs from 8 spaces to 4. I saw somewhere that I should edit my .vimrc file and add :set tabstop=4, but I cannot find it (even when I run :version in vi, it tells me where my user and system .vimrc files are, but I cannot find them there).

I've got an Ubuntu server hosting our websites and other various things here in our own home. We recently switched to a router that doesn't support loopback (abomination), so I've set up hosts files on our computers so we can access our own sites when on our home LAN.
However, we often take our laptops as we travel about, and I'm guessing due to the hosts files when we try to access our sites, it'll look on whatever local network we're connected to for our server, which won't work, obviously.
Is there a way to set up something like a hosts file that'll only try to look up the local IP of the server when we're on a specific network (our home one), or have one that tries to look for the local IP first, then proceeds to try and resolve the domain name and use the external IP if the local IP doesn't work?

I use a linux machine at work and a mac at home. I can ssh from my machine at home to my work machine. But the only editor that I have access to on the command line then is vi, which I don't like.
Is there a way to use gedit on my mac to edit files remotely over an ssh connection?
This page says that it can be done, but I think that it assumes that you are using gedit on ubuntu. On my mac (os 10.5.8) I don't have the "bookmark" option when I click "connect to server".

I am not a big skype user, but I was chatting with my sister, made a typo and habitually typed
tpyo
s/tpyo/typo/
to my surprise it actually changed the history. I am using the linux skype client 2.1.0.47-r1 and my sister is using 4.something on windows.
When she tried to do the same thing, it didn't work. Does anyone know if this is specific to the linux version?

I have gone over the thread "Learn The DD Command Revised" (It was Fantastic) in the search for a solution to my query.
I have seen posted elsewhere that this code is supposed to be able to change the UUID number of NTFS partitions (useful when multi-booting with Grub2 and cloning partitions). Here is the code:
Code:
sudo dd if=/dev/urandom bs=80 count=1 | xxd -l 80 -c 8 | tail -1 | xxd -r - /dev/sda1
This is assuming that I want to change the UUID on the 1st partition on the 1st hard drive >>>sda1<<<
If I was trying to modify the 2nd partition on the 1st hard drive it would be >>>sda2<<<
[Code].....
NOTE: I was doing this while booting from Ubuntu's Live CD version 10.04.1 LTS (In case that is a factor)

I am new to shell script and need to edit an xml form script.
The XML file is something like code...
If the user selects element1, the script should modify only element1 values and not element2 values.
I need it to be done from bash script. I can't use python or perl for the same. Please provide me a way to do so.

I need to have regular user run this command sync; echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
but it requires root privileges that I cannot give.
So I figured they could run the command as "sudo". I looked in /etc/sudoers and wasn't sure what I needed to edit for the users to run the following command
sync; echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches

I have a directory with hundreds of html files.
For all the files I have to:
- delete all the row from the beginning of the file to the sentence "<img src="immagini/_navDxBottom.gif" />".
- delete all the rows from the sentence "<br clear="right" />" to the end of the file.
How can I do that?
