I'm using ubuntu 11.04, I'm having some problem of ownership while sharing folder/files. to share i change the folder share option:1. Share this folder, then followed by 2.allow others to create and delete files in this folder3. guest access.Now if someone in my local network edit any file and save it, it gets locked. if some one copy their file in this folder the permission is marked as "no group" "no owner". and they get unaccessible to me. i tried doing chown <user> <folder> but it says Operation not permitted. Now how i can possibly share my folder on local network so that they can be edited by others without getting locked down , if they copy files i can able to modify them.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'd like to clarify about the permission. 1 ) When I transfer the entire directory from one server to another using "rcp" , the permission still remain as source directory or inherit from the destination directory in different server? 2 ) I have one issue. When I transfer using one server to another server using "rcp" permission was changed at the destination from "770" to "750" at the destination director
View 1 Replies View RelatedI setup ubuntu 10.04.1 server on a computer I'm using as a server for my home. I can view the share folder on server from win7 I can read files but cannot right to the share. However from Xubuntu I was able to read and write no problem. So the question is... why can't windows 7 read and right like xubuntu? I have 2 win7 machines and both were denied writing to the share folder... I'm by no means an expert.. I setup the share using ubuntu server guide pdf... not sure if its done correctly maybe someone here knows off hand what kind of permissions would be causing this.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI am attempting to make a backup copy of a file, but every time I try to copy the file, I get a "permission denied error -- even when running as root. The file is on a volume mounted as /media/Data . No problems reading/writing other files on the volume.
Here is the info on the file:
-rw-------. 1 root MailServer.img
I've tried chown but get the permission denied as well. This is a virtual machine image that runs fine, but even with the VM completely shut down, I get the same error.
I can't perform any of those.Except from the Terminal.I didn't edit any permission... nor installed anything.Don't know what to do.Also, "Move to Trash" appears grayed out, in the right-click menu (for all the files/folders).

Using chown as root, from the userb directory and as follows /home/userb chown -R userb:users /home/userb/* has changed the ownership of direcories, subdirectories and files of all other users. There are too many of those but only 4 users to restore the proper ownership and I do not know bash, can someone give me a bash script to do the job, avoiding the -R switch?

how do you copy an entire line and add that copy at the end of the same line?
For example, sometimes I rename a collection of files with a command like:
"mv oldfilename newfilename;"
I am able to add "mv" at the beginning, the semicolon at the end and sometimes replace a word in the middle, but... how to change a line "oldfilename" into "oldfilename oldfilename"... that is already long time a mystery to me...

How can I give www-data permission to use sudo? I used to assign permission to users to use sudo using KDE but don't know how to do it on a headless server.Basicly I have a web application running that wants to call a command that needs root privs. When it calls this command it's running as www-data. I guess it's not working as www-data is not allowed to use sudo. If it can use sudo I could for example...Code:echo "password" | sudo -S "some admin command here"I could be wrong but i'm petty sure I just need to give www-data permission to use sudo?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI've just recently started learning shell scripting and I've been working on a basic csh script, but I've been having a few problems. Here's the script
Code:
#!/bin/csh
echo Enter a file name
$< = FILE ##Name of file
echo enter a size (in kilobytes) to monitor
SIZETOMON = $< ##Size value that's input by user
du -k $FILE = $SIZE ##Size of the file that the user wishes to monitor
while (1)
if $SIZE > $SIZETOMON then
echo ALERT: File size is greater than $SIZETOMON
end
And here's the output
Code:
/home/lucer/foo.txt: Permission denied.
Badly placed ()'s.
I'm not really sure what the issue is with the "badly placed ()'s" or why it won't let me access files that I can access with the same shell when it's not in a script.
