Apr 17, 2009What file where holds the information for file opening application preferences?
I have Fedora Core 10 (2.6.27.5) with openoffice 3.0 installed.All of the OpenOffice programs show in Applications>Office drop down window and work fine.
Problem is this: If I double click on a calc spreadsheet file (.ods) then the archive manager wants to open it, and I have to right click and manually select scalc as the program to use. If I double click on an odt text file (.odt), okular opens it. I have to right click and select swriter.
If -- BTW -- I click on an excel (.xls) file, calc will start and open the file.
I would like to change these file application preferences, but can't find where to do it or what file to edit to break the current preferences.
Fedora :: Changing Default File Associations In Gnome 3?
May 25, 2011How do I change the default file associations in F15/gnome 3? My system is currently set to open .tex files with emacs. But I prefer TeXworks, and while TeXworks shows up in the "Open With" menu, it would be convenient if double-clicking on a tex file opened it in TeXworks. In gnome2, the "Open with-->Other application" option let me select the default program associated with a particular type of file, but this functionality seems to be gone in Gnome 3. Do I have to edit some config file?

General :: File's Group Changing When Replaced Via Scp
Oct 26, 2010on my Fedora test server, there is a webdev group for all developers and the files under /var/www are owned by apache:webdev. Each developer is set up per normal, with each getting his/her own entry in /etc/group, then I add them to the webdev group (all from the command line). Things seemed OK, but when I edited a file as me the other day and updated it via scp, the ownership and group changed to that of my user, preventing a second dev from updating it later. How can I make sure that the file remains editable by all in the webdev group regardless of who updates it? Since it's a test server, the permissions are fairly loose at 775.

Ubuntu :: File Permissions Keep Changing On USB Drive
Jan 25, 2010I use a USB drive to store most of my personal and work files, and I use it both at home and at work (two different machines, both running Ubuntu). The drive is encrypted, and is accessed using TrueCrypt (the entire drive is encrypted as a device rather than an encrypted file on the device). The TrueCrypt device is formatted as ext3/ext4.
I have a problem with certain file permissions being changed to read-only (rw-r--r--) after mounting the drive. This happens after I have used it on one computer, and then I mount it on the other. Even though I have been setting write permissions to all (chmod -R a+rw *) to get around this problem, when I mount on the other machine the write access is gone. I don't want to keep manually changing permissions; I would like the file permissions to stay as I set them.I'm using the same version of TrueCrypt at work and at home. I'm running Ubuntu 9.04 at work, and 9.10 at home.I do have different usernames on these computers, and I suspect that is the problem (but don't see why this would change file permissions for all users).
Ubuntu :: File Access Time Not Changing?
Nov 24, 2010I am trying to modify the file access time in a Python routine I have. I have I believe the correct code for this but have a greater issue. Looking at a random file in my home directory I can see it was last accessed yesterday (I didn't open this file yesterday) so it was presumably my virus scan. No problem there Now I have opened the file today,rescanned the file for viruses and read the file in Python and the file access time remains the same!I have checked the access time by right clicking on the file and choosing Properties, using "ls -lu", and using os.stat(path) in Python.
View 9 Replies View RelatedUbuntu :: Changing File And Ownership Permissions?
Jan 1, 2011I installed Ubuntu from the alternate cd a few days ago to save space and resources on a very old laptop. (install command line, then add what I wanted) But I have struck an interesting problem with file permissions. Various programs like synaptic, leafpad, pcman, Banshee, all require I enter the root password to execute them (or sudo command from terminal). I want to change synaptic from root ownership to sudo and leafpad etc to execute without using the sudo command in terminal. I could get comments on the commands before I execute them in terminal and if I am introducing a security problem, as I am still learning bash. $ sudo chown sudo:sudo synaptic
I would still be asked for my sudo password before being able to open synaptic? As in standard Ubuntu instead of root password.$ sudo chmod 777 leafpad pcman Banshee All users could open these programs from the menu? I have my admin account and a general account which I use for everyday things like surfing the net and listening to music.
Ubuntu :: Usb Stick Is Changing File Permissions?
Apr 8, 2011I have two computers (one at work, one laptop) that I use daily. Both are running Ubuntu 10.04. I frequently use a usb stick to transfer files from one to the other. Somehow, every time I do this, all files get turned into executables (as if I did a chmod a+x on them...)
This happens every time I use the usb stick. I've reformatted the stick, but still this problem persists... anyone have any ideas on what is going on? It is really getting annoying to have to zip up folders so this doesn't happen...
Programming :: Changing Log Script To Write To Top Of File
Apr 5, 2011I'm running a simple backup and log script that is cronjobed to run twice a day. So currently, when new data is added to the log, its added to the direct bottom of the log file. However, I would like to have it printed to the very top of the log. The code is attached, I can't quote it in here because I am a new user and the system thinks I have url's in it, when they are just paths.
View 2 Replies View RelatedGeneral :: Changing File Permissions And Authorizations
Jan 4, 2010I first installed linux as ubuntu version 9.04 straight off of a Computer Active CD and liked it so started to delve into file permissions and authorisations, simple stuff I suppose just so I could feel my way around things for a while. Using the built in Ubuntu software centre I downloaded and installed a prog which handles authorisations and I found that very helpful but then through the update manager I installed the latest distribution update (9.10) and now find that the authorisation software only lists a couple of things that I can get to and consequently every time I mount one of my hard disks I'm asked for my admin password even though I am logged in as administrator which is a hassle,
a small one but there all the same, as a newbie I realise it must be me not understanding something but I just dont know what, also in the previous version right clicking on the logging out panel gave you an option to remove the 60 second shutdown or restart delay and that has disappeared in the new version, again its really only just a nuisance thing but I find that sorting out this sort of thing will help me to understand the system

Ubuntu :: Directory Automatically Changing File Permissions
Jul 12, 2010Is there a way to have a directory automatically change the permissions of a file that is written to it? I have a program which saves files to a directory, and gives those files read-only permissions to members in the group. This is a problem, because other users of my computer need to be able to edit these files. The directory itself has rw permissions for group members.
I guess what I am looking for is a way for the directory permissions to "override" the permissions the program is trying to save the files as. For example, if the directory has "rw" permissions for the group, then any file saved to it will automatically get the same permissions, regardless of what the program writing the file is trying to do.

Nov 7, 2009I am trying to change the configuration of sendmail so that I can relay mail through google smtp server as suggested here.
First I ran 'm4 sendmail,mc > sendmail.cf' with the original .mc file that came with Fedora 10. There was no error.
I added the following lines.
Quote:
TRUST_AUTH_MECH(`EXTERNAL DIGEST-MD5 CRAM-MD5 LOGIN PLAIN')dnl
define(`confAUTH_MECHANISMS', `EXTERNAL GSSAPI DIGEST-MD5 CRAM-MD5 LOGIN PLAIN')dnl

define(`RELAY_MAILER_ARGS�, `TCP $h 587′)
define(`ESMTP_MAILER_ARGS�, `TCP $h 587′)
I ran ''m4 sendmail,mc > sendmail.cf' again and got this message:
Quote:
m4:/usr/share/sendmail-cf/mailer/procmail.m4:33: ERROR: end of file in argument list
I did not change anything in the procmail.m4 file. What do you think caused this error?
