I have to transport a lot of files from one pc to another (both Linux). I would like to use scp for that, but scp only allows for transferring one file at a time. How can I do this?
I have No possibility to use rsync or any other protocol No possibility to use passphrase free certificates (but have a certificate with a passphrase) A list of files to transfer and a list with the destination path of the files on the other server The files are spread out over a lot of directories, and not all the files in the directories I want to copy If possible I would like to gzip and ungzip transparently to save bandwidth!

View 3 Replies View RelatedI am trying to get my network music player (Logitech Squeezebox) to connect consistently with Ubuntu. Most of my music (FLAC files) is on a separate NTFS hard drive as I am dual booting with XP.I have edited the Fstab file somewhat based on suggestions on the forum but I can not seem to consistently connect to the Squeezebox with my music files (FLAC). What appears to happen is I set up my mount point in the media folder as Music and configure this with my Squeezebox which scans the Hard drive and finds all my music. The player works and it all seems fine even after a reboot but after a couple of reboots I get an error message when booting that says "The disk drive for media/Music/Flac is not ready yet or not present".
When I go to the media folder it appears that the Music folder is duplicated with a folder called Music_ and after a resetting the Squeezebox scanner to the new Music_ folder the process starts over again and I eventually end up with another folder called Music__ and so on.My question is 1) can I delete these Music folders without erasing all my Music library , and 2) how do I correct this situationHere is the Fstab file:# /etc/fstab: static file system information.

I am experimenting with LUKS+dm_crypt. My setup is something like this: a LVM VG made of multiple Physical Volumes (PV). That VG contains multiple LV (Logical Volumes), most of them encrypted via LUKS+dm_crypt (via cryptsetup).Editing "/etc/crypttab", the system will requiere a passphrase for each encrypted LV. But since all my encrypted LVs share the same passphrase, I would like to be prompted only ONCE, instead of twelve times (I have 12 encrypted LV).
I have thought about writing a script to include in initrd that ask for the password once, store the result somewhere volatile (ramdisk?), and provide that password for the rest of "/etc/crypttab" entries.But this seems complex and fragile.I wonder if there is something I am missing, or some other easier way.
What would be a nice, simple command to go through all files in a directory (no sub-directories), and change all the MP4 Video files I have to MP3 audio files (keeping the original filenames except for changing the "mp4" extension to "mp3")?
The files in question were videos taken with one of those Flip cameras, but I only need the audio off of it.
I had used test desk program to restore my files ,the files that recovered was saved in home folderthe problem is that these files are become root permission only ,so i cantcopy , move theme
View 3 Replies View Relatedi am trying to edit sshd_conf files to change the "#Port 22" to "Port 22" from a script.
I have tried this many different ways.
sshs1='s/#Port 22/Port 22/g'
sed $sshs1 /home/l/Desktop/test
the reason i have it as a string in this instance is because $sshs1 gets a variable, but im not working on that right yet. I've tried changing the ' to ` and ". this is what i get:
sed: -e expression #1, char 7: unterminated `s' command
sed: -e expression #1, char 8: extra characters after command
sed: -e expression #1, char 8: extra characters after command
"
sed: -e expression #1, char 7: unterminated `s' command
i know it may have to do with my regex, but i cant seem to find a decent tut.
I found this command that works great finding and replacing a simple string to another in files located in that folder and all sub-folders.
Code: find . -name '*.php' | xargs perl -pi -e 's/OldText/NewText/g'
The problem I have is that I need to replace a more complex string, like this: Old string: /mnt/stor6-wc2-dfw1/627896/982574/ New string: /mnt/stor8-wc2-dfw1/369587/302589/ There I don't know how to do it... since the / is what separates the old from the new strings, and the strings that I want to replace have / in it. Also, I would like to know how to specify under what folder replace the files, for example, I want that it search/replaces all files under /var/www/mysite/htdocs folder.
I need a script that will take all the files in a given directory and create new monthly sub-directories and sort all the files based on the creation date into the appropriate directory.For example, all files created between 01/01/09 and 01/31/09 will be placed in 'JAN-2009'

When is it good to use separate translation units and object files and link them into the main C program, and when is it good to include the header files in the main C program? I don't understand if most people include header files or if most people just link in object files and use their contents in the main program. It's sort of a simple question, but it's confusing to me and that's why I need help with it. I sort of don't understand the difference, or if there's really no difference other than the way the final result is achieved, which way is better or preferred, etc...
For example:
Code:
or:
Code:
Simple explanation of the difference? or which one is preferred or better? I've read a little on the ELF format... so is there no difference in the end result? It's just a matter of preference or necessity, and where the information is to begin with?
I have spent the most part of 5 hours trying to fix this issue. For some reason I cannot change the background image to any of mt .jpg wallpaper files (and .png files). I've tried using the Ubuntu-Tweak application, but I end up getting a purple screen (default) or a black screen (default). So then I tried using the terminal method by making the Appearance window appear when I would log out. That works, except when I go to use my background image, it shows as a question mark for the image preview, and the icon for the file is a gray box. All while doing this my background images that I tested are all in the /usr/share/backgrounds location. Please help! I really want to get rid of the default images and use my images... :/ My desktop/screen in 1440x900, and most my background images are around that size. They work with my regular desktop for my account.

I had a doubt about the role of the evironment set in the execve() function of the C languange.
If I run something like
Code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <unistd.h>
int main(void) {

What is the utility of setting the environment in the execve()?
Is there another way (not using chdir()) of changing the current directory before running exec()?
I tried posting to this SOLVED thread, but suspect that was the wrong thing to do! [URL].... Basically, the thread shows how to strip the first 2 lines of a text file, but because I have quote a number of folders on the desktop each needing the same treatment, I wondered how to do this in one step. I figure I might learn something rather than just do the grunt work of switching from folder to folder.
