-It writes the subject inside the message.
-It writes the From inside the message.
-It does not show HTML when it append the original message.
So I want to have my subject written in the mail subject instead of RE:. Also I want to be able to show HTML inside the auto replay mail.

I have two folders as :
drwxrwxrwx 2 root root 1368064 Mar 10 18:28 monitor
drwxrwxrwx 7 root root 12288 Feb 18 17:07 monitorDONE
I have created one short cut link for this folder with below command :
ln -s monitorDONE recordings lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 11 Mar 13 14:30 recordings -> monitorDONE This link is under /var/www/html Now, when I do IP/recordings It show me an Error as Forbidden You don't have permission to access /recordings on this server.
I've setup a Lamp Server for Testing, The Lamp Server is Up & Running on CentOs 5.5
I am now trying to setup a VSFTP server where local users can upload files to there home directory so that Apache can serve web pages straight from the directories of system user home/accounts giving users the ability to run their own web sites which are hosted off the main server [tutorial here: [url]
So far i have been able to serve/display index.html files from the users home directory [url] but so far i cant upload files to any user home directory, every time i try to upload a file with filezilla i get this error message: 553 Could not create file. Critical file transfer error
I have searched online for similar problems like mine and so far i've tried alot of the solution but none seem to work. I'm confused, dont know where i went wrong, i put the users in a group called ftpusers and here are the permissions on the users (test, ftpuser & testftp) home directory. have a look an tell me where i went wrong :(
Also the root directory where the web pages are served from is called public_html here are the permissions
Here is my vsftp.conf file can someone check it to see if i made any errors in there:
Is there a way to add my full name to my user account?
I see how to add a user with a full name using:
Code:
And I've seen that if I delete my user account, and create a new one with the same UID/GID, that it would have access to my files.
I recently created a new user account in ubuntu linux, and created a file called xsession so that I can boot directly into xmbc when I log into that account. Is there anyway to delete the home folder for that account. I can view the file but when I try to delete it is says I do not have apporite permisions to delete the file.
I removed the account and deleted the group but it still shows up when I type in the address /home/xmbc
Is there anyway I can delete this file. It also will not let me create any new user accounts is there any way I can fix these prolbems without totaly reinstalling the system.
how do i give full permissions to my account? At the moment i'm logged onto root so i can create files / folders in my LAMP folder (/opt/lampp/htdocs) i've right click on the folder and gone to the permissions tab and give the ownership to my account (Kevin) but it still doesnt let me create files or folders? i just want to give my account full permissions to every folder!

View 1 Replies View RelatedI encountered a question in the Redhat Skills Assessment regarding useradd: Which of the following cannot be defined when you create a user account with useradd?
a* A password expiration date.
b* The user's primary group.
c* The user's default shell.
d* The user's NIS or LDAP group.
e* The user's home directory.
Which is the correct answer? I have my own thinking which will be explained later.
I am an experienced Linux user, but have never used Salix before. I have a root account set up on my other Linux distros, but can not figure it out using Salix. The reason I want a root account in Salix because I believe in freedom of choice, and my choice always was and always will be to have a root account set up so I can login as root. I am aware of the risk involed in creating a root account.

View 7 Replies View RelatedI just setup a vsftpd server and I am baffled about one issue. I allow local login and have not chroot anybody and disallow anonymous login. When connected as a local user I can browse the servers file system including the root (/) directory. There I can download whatever file I want but not write to it.All permissions are untouched since installing the server.Looking at the file permissions they are in general rwxr-xr-x (root root)
Isn't this a security threat? If so it seems strange as these are the default permissions. I don't dare changing the permissions for the entire file system.
I've installed vsftp as ftp server on CentOS5. vsftpd.conf is unedited, works without change as it was installed (it's a private network on which I'm using anonymous ftp.)For some reason vsftp will not serve some files which I downloaded from another system (using ftp.) The downloaded files simply don't show up at all if I come into vsftp via a browser, for example, and 'get' fails in a command-line ftp client. Other files originating from the local machine are served OK.
If I copy the downloaded file, vsftp shows the copy just fine but not the original; both files are in /var/ftp (the ftp server root.)The downloaded file had group and owner as '65534' so I did chgrp/chown root, but that made no difference. Reboot makes no difference; restarting the client or using a different client machine makes no difference.What am I missing or doing wrong? What doesn't vsftpd like about the downloaded files? This is happening on two separate machines, and I'm very puzzled.
After few hours working I can connect to ftp.And download files from the server.But I can not upload file or create directory.I checked my configure file several time could not figure it out.
# cat /etc/vsftpd/vsftpd.conf

I also have root access on a Desktop Ubuntu system (192.168.5.10) on the LAN. I need to create another desktop user account on that 192.168.5.10 system.
So I logged into that system with: ssh -Y myself@192.168.5.10
