I have tried several things to attempt to fix my sudoers file however it is still coming up with errors. The error says
[code]...
the sudoers configuration file is set to the default as I have ran a dpkg on it, have also uninstalled and reinstalled it, and went over the configuration file ensuring it looked like the defaults I had seen online.

Hello,
this error spams about 100 times, then the scanner does indeed work. So I'm not completely broken, but the error messages are of concern, and it slows down the process of scanning for the time it takes to do the messages.
Error in console:
libusb couldn't open USB device /dev/bus/usb/001/001: Permission denied. libusb requires write access to USB device nodes.
my sript runs:
scanimage
--device $MODEL
--resolution=$RESOLUTION
-x 5104 -y 6840
my groups:
uid=1000(fogie) gid=100(users) groups=100(users),7(lp),11(floppy),12(mail),15(man),17(audio),18(video),19(cdrom),20(games),21(sloca te),83(plugdev),84(power),86(netdev),93(scanner)
Even a simple:
scanimage -Lv
in console gives this on a separate --current pc as well.

After upgrading GNOME to 2.32 in my openSUSE 11.3 x86_64 running graphic applications with sudo is impossible. (that means it worked before upgrading GNOME)
Code:
etam@etam-laptop:~> sudo xeyes
root's password:
No protocol specified
Error: Can't open display: :0.0 From /etc/sudoers:

If I try the sudo mv command on the file listed below I get the error listed. I am confused. It is my file & I have permissions. Somehow a slew of files on my system are now showing this way. This seems to correspond when I ran rsync from my netbook to sync it up with my desktop where I am having a problem.
Potential Source ->
sudo rsync -av --delete --rsh=ssh joe@192.168.1.4:/media/Abyss/Memories/ /home/joe/Pictures/
Type of issue ->
mv: cannot remove `100_2259.jpg': Permission denied

I have a CGI script that when called runs another script as a different user. Yet when the script does run I keep getting a permission denied in the logs and the script fails
In the sudoers file-
Defaults env_reset
www-data ALL=(charly) NOPASSWD=ALL
For the full question-
When looking at /etc/sudoers there is the defaults line that you can add things to. When doing a sudo -L so that I can see what I can put on that defaults line. Can an individual user have specific defaults? Ones that don't effect the rest of the people in /etc/sudoers?

A few days ago I tried to install a driver for a Brother printer (HL-5040) in terminal mode by issuing "sudo dpkg -i --force-all hl5040lpr-1.1.2-1.i386.deb" on my Ubuntu 9.10 PC.
During the process several error messages were displayed. All of them say "permission denied" to access a directory /etc/init.d/lpd. Consequently, the installation failed and Synaptic package manager does not work any more and becomes broken.
Questions: Why did I get "permission denied" as a su? How can I get around the problem so I can re-install the driver?

when I try to su, with the right password I know it is because I have reset it with a sudo, it says su: incorrect password. Looking at /var/log/messages I see su: Unable to open admin password file: Permission denied. This must mean that the file has incorrect permissions and or owner/group. I am wondering if anyone knew where the file was located and the correct permissions/owner/group.

I didn't back up the blasted /etc/httpd stuff.
I do a "clean" root-only install; i.e., the only partitions that are formatted are the root and usr partition leaving the others untouched (so I don't have to restore the entire thing every time or fiddle with updating). That leaves almost everything in place with only a few edits and additions to make to get back in business; smart and dumb and the same time, sigh.
The partitions look like this for what it's worth:
Code:
Anyway, my web server comes up just fine and other applications work as expected except for Bugzilla and I can't remember what the heck it is I have to do to get it going again. I add a file, httpd-bugzilla.conf in the extra directory and include it at the end of httpd.conf:
Code:
In the above, /var/www/htdocs/bugzilla is not a symbolic link, Bugzilla is actually installed there (and has worked just fine for a long, long time). And, yeah, I know I'm not really supposed to do that but there it is.
I also run checksetup.pl which completes cleanly (it also sets permission masks and group) and double-check that localconfig looks like it ought to.
Seems like that ought to do it, but...

I just isntalled LAMP using tasksel and have a problem. Whenever I try to access a page (aside from phpmyadmin, that works well), I get this error... Code: Warning: Unknown: failed to open stream: Permission denied in Unknown on line 0 Fatal error: Unknown: Failed opening required '/var/www/index.php' (include_path='.:/usr/share/php:/usr/share/pear') in Unknown on line 0
I have restarted the computer, restarted apache, etc and still nothing. When I first installed, phpmyadmin was inaccessible, so I ran some command in terminal which apparently created a symlink between phpmyadmin in the user/share dir to the /var/www dir, and curious if this is the problem. I have no clue how to remove this symlink if this is the case, and have phpmyadmin working now due to install using sudo apt-get install phpmyadmin.

I have an Acer EasyStore NAS which I can access fine in Nautilus, but a server which I have been trying to mount via command line refuses to even let me view the contents of the folder. The mount command appears to work, a password is requested when connecting to the shared folder.
sudo mount -t cifs --verbose -o user=jason //nas/media /mnt/nas
mount.cifs kernel mount options: unc=//nasmedia,ver=1,rw,user=jason,ip=192.168.0.250,pas s=********
But I cannot even view the folder contents, as even a simple ls returns:
ls: cannot open directory /mnt/nas: Permission Denied
Even on my laptop which is able to access all the shared folders under Nautilus I am unable to mount shares from the command line.

I tried posting this before and I'm not sure what happened but I don't think it worked, so if it did please forgive the double post.am very very new to centOS and linux in general. I just want to setup a test web server that more closely mirrors our actual web server that is hosted by rackspace. I've installed centOS and tried to setup Apache, PHP and MySQL from a guide on the web using Yum. When I go to localhost in the web browser I'm able to see the default apache page. However when I create a php page it's just blank.When I look at the apache error logs I get this: PHP Warning: Unknown: failed to open stream: Permission denied in Unknown on line 0
I've been searching alot on the internet and I know the issue is permission related, but I don't know how to fix it. I've seen some forum posts that say you need to use the chmod 775 command on the /var/www/html folder.Currently when I do ls -l /var/www/html it returns
-rw------- 1 root root 19 May 5 13:16 index.php
-rw------- 1 root root 19 May 5 13:15 index.php~
I'm sure that this isn't correct but like I said I don't know much about how to set permissions or who the owner needs to be. I've done alot of searching and seen similar posts, but no one seems to explain it clearly.

In previous Slackware libsane releases, my scanner was not supported. In 13.1 the support is there:
root@gandalf:~# lsusb
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
Bus 002 Device 002: ID 03f0:3304 Hewlett-Packard DeskJet 990c
Bus 002 Device 004: ID 04a7:0229 Visioneer OneTouch 7100
[Code]....
Why am I suddenly getting "permission denied" both as root, and as the normal user (yes added to 'scanner' group)? What changed from the full DVD installation (using 2.6.33.4-generic and initrd) after added the the patches? I've been googling for months trying different "permission fixes" and fiddling with udev rules with no luck. So there is something I don't understand going on here.
