View 3 Replies View RelatedHere's the beginning of the issue: I'm running Fedora 12 with httpd and sshd. I want to create a user with a scponly shell for sftp access, but this user should ONLY be able to view /the/http/base/dir and its subdirectories. The user should not be able to see or get into directories above the httpd base. Someone mentioned creating a chroot jail for sshd and binding the httpd base to that dir, but this seems like more work than is necessary for the application I wish. Also mentioned was creating a user, say user1 with a selinux user setting of staff_r. I have read the articles and creating a user of staff_r isn't overly difficult, but how would I make it where staff_r would be restricted to where I want them to be? If I'm not mistaken, that would require changing the context of /the/httpd/base/dir?

View 9 Replies View RelatedI have this directory with multiple images 'pics' and the size is 20mb and I want to make a .zip or .rar package of this directory but with an increased size so the .zip/.rar file will be 100mb, and then when you extract it the file size is the original 20mb. I want to make the result file bigger, no compress it. I need to put all the directory in one single file .zip or .rar but it has to weight more (100mb), maybe it can be done with another application. By the way, I have a centos 5 from command line.

View 9 Replies View Related2 of us have been googling all morning trying to find out how we can restrict ftp logins to their own home directories only but nothing we've found so far has worked. We've tweaked sshd_config so that they default to their home directory but they are able to navigate up/across/down to everything. This is a "straight-out-of-the-box" debian 5.0.5 Netinst. Just a basic system with Apache/MySql/PHP/SSH and no desktop.

I have learned Linux for a while now, but Linux is continuously surprising me with new stuffs nearly every day... Today I met a really strange problem, that the command "ls" indicates the size of some directories is ZERO, as for /home.
However, there is a directory inside /home, which contains many files/directories.
Even worst, when I tried to create a file under /home, I got the "permission denied" error,
By the way, /home is within the local file system, not NFS share.
I have 2 directories in my home folder that I would like to set a size limit on. The directories are ~/backup and ~/temp. Is there an easy way to limit the size of a directory without having to make partitions?

What is the minimal size for a home directory?I did a manual partition install in VirtualBox. My vdi had these settings: RAM = 500MB & HDD = 10GB.Does this look correct.I am never certain as to the options for Primary, Logic, Beginning and End.Does it matter the order in which you make partitions in Ubuntu?

View 2 Replies View RelatedJust installed Ubuntu 11.04, which has Nautilus 2.32.2.1. When more than one directory is open, the tab for each directory s-t-r-e-t-c-h-e-s way across the screen, so all tabs added together take up 100% of the width. So with two folders open, each tab is 50% of the screen width! In previous Nautilus versions, each tab was just normal size. Cannot find a Preference to change this, and Googling for any solution brings up someone's previous query of this nature: [URL] and the fact that no one has responded! Is this an option that can be changed? Anyone come across this new "feature" before?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am running CentOS 5.5 with a 14T ext4 volume. We are sharing out a few sub-directories via NFS. Our customer was doing some penetration testing with our web app that writes to one of those NFS shares. We are not sure if they did something to cause the metadata to grow so large or if it is corrupt. Here is the listing:drwxrwxr-x 1 owner owner 470M Jun 24 18:15 temp.badI guess the metadata could actually be that large, however we have been unable to perform any operations on that directory to determine if the directory is just loaded with files or corrupted. We have not run an fsck on the volume because we would need to schedule downtime for out customers to do so. Has anyone come across this before
View 2 Replies View RelatedSuppose that some person is insomniac because of a bad habit of chatting on the IRC every night until 3AM. That completely ruins this person's life because he is unable to wake up on time to attend his exams, because he will be fully exhausted everyday and will feel depressive.
That person is conscious of this bad behaviour, and would accept any help including installing a software on his own computer granting me admin privileges to install it.
Do you know of such a software that ideally would: Would prevent use of the computer at certain time ranges, let's say 11PM — 6AM Would gracefully shutdown the computer at the beginning of that time range (not killing all the applications brutally), and shutdown it if the user attempts to switch it back on Would warn 10 minutes beforehand Could occasionally be disabled if I give a one-time password to that person?
That person uses Linux, and I am curious of knowing what is available for that purpose. It is kind of a parental control, but not for a child.
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 ?
