Red Hat :: Equivalent Command To Setgroups?

Sep 17, 2010

I have a DBA that needs to be able to do a "setgroups" on Linux. He had the functionality on AIX but now we're migrating to red hat. In-case you don't know the setgroups command in AIX; it allows users to drop groups that they belong to for that login session. He wants to be able to do this so that he can drops groups for testing. Does anyone know of any equivalent commands to setgroups or another way of dropping groups for that session and not permanently?

General :: Find The Equivalent Command Of A Gui Operation?

Apr 12, 2010

We often require to find an equivalent text command for any GUI operation. Just as an example we click on a folder (say ABC) from the current directory in order to see the contents of that directory. The equivalent command for it to happen would be->

Code:
cd ABC ls Now the thing is that we often don't know what that equivalent command will be. So I want to know that is there any way out to find it. What I want to do is that I shall perform any operation using mouse in the GUI mode(whatever operation it could be) and then I can see a log file to see what I actually did last(rather what the command would have been if I have worked in the text mode)...

Ubuntu :: Equivalent To Mac OS X's Speech ?

Nov 14, 2010

I'm trying to migrate to Ubuntu from Mac OS X. I have set up a dual boot on my MacBook and I am currently working to get everything I need for my computing-life up and running in Ubuntu.

I have found almost everything, expect a speech synthesis similar to the one native to Mac OS X's.

I use the OS X speech synthesis to have text I have written read back to be, I'm not blind; just really good a missing small words. What I don't want is to have all the menus and bottoms read out, only text I have selected.

I have tried something with 'festival' and some GUI overlay (think that is what it is called) but it read absolutely everything out loud (and sounds like Amiga's speech engine, i.e. a quite low quality).

In my Mac OS X I have a really nice set up (with a voice called Alex) where I can start speech of selected text with "cmd + ; " and stop it with " cmd+' " (two shortcuts not used by the system).
