Networking :: Finding A Simple Web-based Group File Manager?
Jun 2, 2010
Is there a simple web-based solution for a group looking to securely share files online? The software needs to run on our own servers due to regulatory laws. I want users to be able to go to a web site, request an account (which I should be able to accept or reject), and upload/download/manage files in a web-based (preferably ajax-y) file manager. File access controls (via users/groups) is desirable.Yes, I know that SSH/SFTP is the 'proper' solution, but many of the users will be office workers and installing an SFTP client and configuring it is too advanced for them. Same goes for Samba+VPN setups...
I always have a problem in simple user mode when I insert a USB key. Can't mount, can't open with file manager. I'm obliged to open a simultaneous root session, to do what I want to manage the usb key.
In my user manager, I don't know wich group I have to add to this simple user (it's me) so I am allowed to manage the usb key.
I am looking to build a simple HTPC based on boxee, it is a very low power machine (2ghz P4, 1gb RAM, 1gb video card).
At present it has Win7 on it, but I want to run boxee as my media centre software (I love the watch later facility) and I was wondering what it would run best on?
I was wondering if anyone knew of a lightweight and easy-to-configure MTA, or any other way of sending messages from a command-line environment without too much of a fuss. I would only be sending messages through a single Gmail account, and would rather not bother with all of the sendmail configuration.
i want secondary users can able to change the files permissions of primary group?user MAC is having www as a primary and httpd as secondary group. But he want to change the file permissions (chmod) httpd group files. Is it possible or not? I think its not possible. If it`s possible then let me know how?
I have recently joined an 11.04 server to an AD and want to configure home directories based on group membership for all AD users that login. Basically, I want one home directory for "Domain Users" and another for "Domain Admins".
I have a group (GROUP) with a number of users. I recently added a new user (NEW). NEW is able to read but not write group files, whereas all the other users in the group can read and write to the group files. The permissions for the group files indicate that all members of group should have write permission -rwxrwxr-x
/etc/group indicates that NEW is a member of GROUP ... GROUP:x:501:GROUP,OLD,OLD2,OLD3,OLD4,....,NEW
[code]....
Don't know if it matters, but both OLD and NEW write to the GROUP files over an internet connection. why NEW can't write to GROUP files? Is there a maximum number of members in a group that I might have exceeded?
I am trying to deploy a very simple file server in my company's network.The goal is just to have a file server with DAT backup, nothing more.I managed to configure Samba to show a share visible in the Windows network, with free read and write to everyone. For this I configured "Autentication Mode = user", and read/write access to all users in the specified share.
Of course, I would like to have the possibility to establish permissions based in AD-users. For that, I tried to add my CentOS machine to AD.I followed the guide in:
[URL]
I can get the kerberos "kinit" command to autenticate in Windows AD: I can access the Windows machines in the network as administrator and "klist" shows the valid ticket.But, when trying the "join", I always get the "No logon servers" error.I googled around for this, and it seems that this is a common error and there is no "magic approach" for it...
So, my questions are:
- Can this be achieved only by the Samba configuration tool (Gui)? I think not, as we need to change kerberos settins
- What would be the correct settings for krb5.conf?
- Are there any other services/files needed to adjust?
just now i have installed squid, it works fine with authentication . I created this authentication in a simple text file by using htpasswd . my question is that is there any web based simple page to change passwords of squid users, because each and every time i cant give direct access to server for my squid users .
I am just looking for a simple program, nothing overly complex with crazy features. Just something that pops up above any browser/window and remains that way until you click it or something. The pop up would occur periodically or at sometime each day. It would say something like "TAKE A BREAK FROM COMPUTER" lol and other things. not suppose to be some full reminder program like a calendar.
I have a script I want to execute after successful login for users who are members of a specific group. Ubuntu server 64 bit, 10.04. Where could I accomplish this?
I'm not afraid of bash but I'm not very good with it either. I'm assuming there's a way of using find, perhaps in conjunction with another tool, to find images in a directory (and subdirectories) based on their dimensions?
Specifically, I want to find all the landscape-oriented images and copy them somewhere else.
Ive been using linux for a while but I am just getting into shell scripting, im currently trying to get a simple script for finding and copying files powered by the command:
Code:
This works fine from the command line but when put in a script such as:
Code:
Code:
with the keyboard inputs for $fc1 and $fc2 being *.doc and ~/test respectivly. The only problem i can see is the xargs -ivar "var" part possibly needing $var to be defined?
I know find can do what I am looking for, but I am wondering if there is an alternative way to find files on the filesystem either created before/after a certain point, or at a certain time.
Typically I rely on updatedb & locate for most of my file searching needs. Issues with those tools, though, are that it only has directory and file names, and it only creates a database of local directories, not anything mounted via CIFS|NFS or via -o loop (eg, .iso images).
So if I need to find files created after yesterday across the entire system (local and remote filesystems), I am currently needing to use find.
What other tools, if any, would accomplish this in a similar fashion?
I have tried ls and grep, but that requires (in my attempts so far) multiple searches:
ls -lR | grep Aug | grep 10 ls -lR | grep Aug | grep 11
I used MusicBrainz Picard to tag FLAC and Mp3 files, fixed any necessary genre tags in Rhythmbox, and used EasyTag to rename the actual files.But now I'm interested in using those genre tags as folder names...is there any program that will sort my music into folders based on their genre tags?
we need to log web access of a certain set of users for analysis. We decided to setup a proxy server which just logs all the requests but does not do anything else like caching/access control etc.All users will be using a fixed set of computers and hence we can redirect their requests to the proxy. I came across Squid, but found it to be too heavy for our requirements. Is there any other proxy-server software that is good enough for what we want or is Squid the only way?
Going through the forums I read a post, where it was told to rebuild a package... But unfortunately, I didnt understand a thing which was mentioned in the building rpm tutorail that I reffered... The replacement to that package which was mentioned in the same post was unavailable.
I have installed 9.10 server on an old machine at home that I want to use purely for managing any software downloads.
I used to use the firefox add on DownThemAll on my ubuntu desktop environment so I am looking for a web based download manager for the server that has similar features (username/password restricted downloads, scheduling, pausing/restarting downloads) as DownThemAll.
I basically want to be able to add a bunch of downloads to a list and the server then downloads them. I need to be able to save a username/password combination for certain sites. I would also like to be able to see progress on the downloads and pause/resume them
Does anybody want to recommend a CLI password manager? All the ones I've found are in questionable maintenance or don't have a track record for me to look at.
Looking for console based calendar / time manager (or backend)? Well is there a good one to be known? Maybe else than 'when'? Joe Barr has written a nice intro to the program in his column at linux. [URL]. Is there some backend and frontend that could be used? Or alternatively, could it be possible to have them on an Kerberos/Ldap system or exchange server? What are the best and multiplatform single cal database possibility?
I just installed kubuntu and am having troubling finding the Adept Package Manager. All the tutorials I've found suggest that it should already be installed. I've looked in the Applications > System, searched for it and tried running it with the command line (kdesu adept). I've looked briefly online didn't see anything that jumped out as the right thing to download. Should it already be installed or where can I find it?
