Nov 2, 2010I have run a command which finds a lot of files based on some search criteria. It returns the files like so:
./somepath/somepath/file.something
./asdf/asdf/s.php
./etc/a.php
./a/b/c/d/e/f/g.jpg
So I was wondering, if I capture this output into a file (ie. one file per line), can anyone help me write a command which iterates through the file and moves the files one by one to a specified directory?

Server :: Ssh: Prevent Disconnection After A Command?
Aug 19, 2010I wish to create aliases to log into a server and go to a specific folder. For example, I have two aliases:
Code:
alias REP1='ssh me@server cd /REP1'
alias REP2='ssh me@server cd /REP2'
and of course, I'm disconnected after cd commands. I found no ssh option which prevents this disconnection to occur. I also tried the following trick:
Code:
ssh me@server "cd /REP; bash -i"
but it left me with a crappy shell (no color, directions keys printing ^]]A, ...)

View 3 Replies View RelatedUbuntu Security :: How To Prevent Grub Command-line Boots
May 18, 2011The ability to manually boot using the Grub command-line constitutes a big security risk in Linux, IMO.Any OS can be booted in this manner from a PXE-LAN, USB, or CD/DVD drive, circumventing BIOS-imposed boot restrictions. (Once a foreign OS is booted, of course, it can be used to access any part of an unencrypted hard drive.) Placing passwords or locking menu items (in the Grub configuration files) does not prevent a user from booting manually using commands entered at the grub command-line.
As it stands now, when presented with the Grub menu (or after bringing up a hidden Grub menu with the "ESC" key), a user only needs to hit "c" to enter the Grub command-line mode to facilitate any type of bootup whatsoever. (They can then enter manually the Grub commands to boot an OS on any device.) This is extremely insecure and allows any passerby to boot the computer with a few keystrokes and a bootable USB drive. How do I configure Grub so that it will require a password in order to enter the command-line mode (and thereby restrict boot options to the menu, which can then be password protected/locked) ?
Hardware :: Use The Mv Command To Move Certain Subtree Within The Tree?
Nov 27, 2010Kernel 2.6.21.5, Slackware 12.0
Suppose I use the mv command to move certain subtree within the tree rooted at /. May I expect only a very small quantity of sectors will be involved in the process? Or, on the contrary, it is probable that a large amount of data will be transfered from sector to sector? Assume ext2.
If any of you is wondering why such a theoretical question, I am ready to translate it to practical terms: I have just created a directory called /home/john/mic2 which I expect to grow until reaching over a thousand nodes (nodes in the sense given to this word when studying lattices, trees and the like). But maybe later I will change its name to /home/john/mic1 for which, I think, mv is the usual tool in Linux.
mic2 is just a file. As such, there is a set of sectors associated with it. When I rename, these sectors will be left vacant and a new set of sectors will be written. Or maybe the same set shall be rewritten. And is that all? Remember mic2 is by now about a thousand nodes "large".

Sep 15, 2010I liked the idea of the "cosmos" screensaver/desktop, but wanted to add my own pictures to the application. I navigated to /usr/share/backgrounds/cosmos and tried to drag and drop. I quickly found that I did not have permission to do this.
I googled my problem and found some command line tutorials telling me to sudo cp. My problem is that I have about 30 pics that I want to move in there, and I don't think I can just move the directory, they have to be in that folder as the pictures themselves.
I don't really feel like typing the cp line multiple times with multiple randomly named image files.
Is there a way to have the command line cp all of my files from one directory to another?
Ubuntu :: Panel Applet - If Right-click Doesn't Include Move - How To Move That Icon
Sep 19, 2010For Ubuntu 10.04 LTS / Gnome 2.30.2.
I have two applets on my Gnome panel -- NetworkManager Applet 0.8, and Klipper (it works better than Glipper) -- that I want to move.
HOWEVER, right-clicking the panel icons does not enable me to move these applets, as follows:
- NetworkManager Applet 0.8 does not include a Move item in its list of options.
- Klipper displays a long list of Klipper options but no Move option.
How I can move these items to new locations on the Gnome panel?
General :: How To Prevent VNC From Swapping HD
Apr 6, 2010Actually I'm not sure that it's swapping like mad: I've done more testing and it looks like there may some interference causing the noise that may be correlating with network usage. I'm accessing a MacMini (with MacOS X 10.4) from my Linux machine using VNC. My Linux machine has 4 GB of ram and I run a lot of various apps on it and I've got no issue at all. It's all snappy and don't hear the hard disk swapping/read/writing too often. Now with VNC, the hard disk is swapping like mad. When I'm moving things on the OS X desktop. So I was thinking of creating a ramdisk and forcing the temp VNC files to go into that ramdisk but the problem is I can't find any temp files.
I've attempted to do that:
#!/bin/bash
while [ true ]
do
lsof | grep vnc
done
The VNC version I'm using is this one:
$ vncviewer -version
VNC Viewer Free Edition 4.1.1 for X - built Jan 30 2009 19:33:16
Copyright (C) 2002-2005 RealVNC Ltd.
No matter how much data is coming from the Mac, there should be plenty of memory (4 GB of ram) so there's really no reason to swap like crazy.

Jul 11, 2010I'm currently copying a large number of files over a network. To monitor progress, I tried running watch du. However, the output never changed (or not much, not sure). find . -type f | wc -l always gives me the same number of files as does ls -R. It seems, these programs use caching, which is, in general, a good thing. Does anyone know, though, how cache usage could be controlled?

View 2 Replies View RelatedGeneral :: Prevent Rmdir -p From Traversing Above Certain Directory
Apr 22, 2010I hacked together this script to rsync some files over ssh. The --remove-source-files option of rsync seems to remove the files it transfers, which is what I want. However, I also want the directories those files are placed in to be gone as well. The current part of the find command, -exec rmdir -p {} ; tries to remove the parent directory (in this case, /srv/torrents), but fails because it doesn't have the right permissions. What I'd like to do is stop rmdir from traversing above the directory find is run in, or find another solution to get rid of all the empty folders. I've thought of using some kind of loop with find and running rmdir without the -p switch, but I thought it wouldn't work out. Essentially, is there an alternative way to remove all the empty directories under the parent directory?

General :: Prevent SCP From Copying Local Files?
May 17, 2010I just read the Linux scp command issue question and it reminded me that I regularily forget to specify the colon in the host part of a scp command, and thus copying a file locally instead of copying to a remote host, e.g. I do
scp foo host
instead of
scp foo host:
But I never use scp to copy a file locally. So I wonder if there is a way to make scp fail if both (the source and destination) arguments refer to local files.
General :: Prevent Evince From Contacting Other Instances?
Jul 23, 2010Okay, this issue is kinda difficult to understand without context: When we run Evince, it checks if there is any other instance running. If there is one, the evince command exits immediately, right after passing the parameter to the running instance If no other instance is running, a new one will be started, and the evince command will wait until this new instance exits. While that behavior is quite nice, it is not helpful for shell scripts. Why? Because I have a script that writes a temporary .ps file, calls a PS/PDF viewer, and automatically deletes the temporary .ps file after the viewer exits. Unfortunately, this script only works if evince was not previously running (if evince was running, then the file is deleted too fast).
I don't want to add extra complexity to this script. It should be kept simple, because I may want to replace evince with xpdf, gv, or anything else. I was expecting some kind of command-line parameter to evince (similar to -f to vim and gvim), but I fear there is no such option. Writing a wrapper script around evince might be a good solution, but this script should work correctly in all cases (if evince was running and if it wasn't).

Jun 29, 2011I use software where I have to edit a text file in order to get my custom needs from it. Problem is that when the author puts out an update, it always overwrites my changes and I have to spend hours trying to compare the file, re-edit my changes back in, etc. This happens sometimes as often as once per month.
I've wondered if there might be a linux tool or commands which would look through the new file, then at my old file, changing only the text which already exists while not breaking anything else. Most software authors seem to know how to do this but since mine doesn't, how can I accomplish this on my own?
