I've got a problem in doing sudo working for mounting things (e.g. usb pen or optic discs). Details:The OS: Slackware 13.0The response to sudo -l command:
Code:
User user1 may run the following commands on this host:

I mount my NFS shares with fstab entries likexxxx.xxxx.xx:/srv/vdr /media/vdr_video nfs noauto,user,bg,soft,intr,retry=5 0 0 With openSUSE 11.2 works this fine. With openSUSE 11.4 installation (no upgrade) only NFS mount works fine. The umount command works only with root.

When I try to use gksudo everything is fine. I also can use su - without a problem.
I tried to add my user to sudoers and it seemed to work as you can see here:
Code: Select allronel : sudo root adm cdrom floppy audio dip video plugdev users netdev lpadmin
but it did not change the situation.

View 11 Replies View RelatedI have a really strange problem. I have a few files in a large directory that I want to make readable by everyone. So I try this:
sudo find readme* -not -perm -o+r -exec chmod +r {} ;
and get this:
sudo: unable to execute /usr/bin/find: Success
I don't know why it says Success, because the permissions were not changed. I verified by typing this:
find readme* -not -perm -o+r -exec ls -l {} ;
and get something like
-rw------- 1 root root 536871076 Nov 22 14:06 readme_20101122200429
-rw------- 1 root root 536871892 Nov 22 14:08 readme_20101122200642
-rw------- 1 root root 293458128 Nov 22 14:10 readme_20101122200859
as a last resort, I tried:
sudo chmod +r *
and got:
sudo: unable to execute /bin/chmod: Success
and again Success really means fail. So, I gave up and logged in as root and tried:
find readme* -not -perm -o+r -exec chmod +r {} ;
This time it worked. Why?
EDIT: /etc/sudoers looks like:
## Allow root to run any commands anywhere
root ALL=(ALL) ALL
##Me
user1 ALL=(ALL) ALL
I installed two programs recently, Vuze and JDownloader. Vuze seems to run perfectly fine and write to the /media/x directory.However JDownloader keeps saying "cannot write to location /media/x" or something like that. Only when i run it as sudo will it write to that location. So currently thats what I have done. But how do i make it so it runs without sudo and still can write to /media/x also, why is it that vuze has write permissions but jdownloader doesnt?

Yet, 'sudo kwrite' works. Anyone met this before, or know why?

I want log in locally to my Lucid (10.04) workstation and have my code saved over the network on my samba account At work, all developers have samba user ids and when we were running Red Hat, we went thru the following procedure to get setup.
* open a shell session to NFS server and execute the "id" command to get my samba user information.
Code:
$> ssh l alberto our_nfs_server
$> id
uid=7090(alberto) gid=100(users) groups=100(users)
* Create locally a login on my Linux workstation with the same login and uid.
Code:
$>sudo useradd u 7090 g 100 d /home/alberto s /bin/bash alberto

Code:
mount error(13): Permission denied Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g. man mount.cifs) mount.nfs: access denied by server while mounting our_nfs_server:/d0/homedirs/alberto It does not work at all!!?? However, the same procedure on a RedHat workstation works fine. No errors.
I've added my public key to the remote machine's authorized_keys file, and I can ssh over without password. But when I try to mount the remote share using sshfs it -always- asks for my user's password. I have set sshd_config|PasswordAuthentication no
... and when I mount the share as root it says, "read: Connection reset by peer". My mount is being done as user, so it shouldn't be a root authentication problem:
sshfs#bill@droog://media/droogfuseuser,noauto,gid=6,umask=007,cache=no,ServerAliveInterval=15,reconnect,allow_other,comment=sshfs 0 0
I can't mount as user because /dev/fuse is not suid, and I'd rather not set it such.

I think "forgotten" by the generic drivers for ATI or something that influences the video. it does not show. 9.10,10.04,10.10 none of those versions worked ... on other computers functioned normally. I found researching how to dribble and go to live. and thus unable to install. but does not work after the pc restarts. Linux does not. shows nothing ... goes to black screen with the (- FLASHING) but nothing else happens.
The latest release of VirtualBox (3.1.6) corrects most of the problems that I had with Slackware and KDE. If you have been avoiding VirtualBox or KDE because of those issues you might want to take another look.The only problem that I'm having now is that I have to click somewhere on the desktop to get a proper display when switching VirtualBox into "seamless" mode. The rest of the window display issues appear to be fixed and full screen mode also works correctly.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI got hold of the 3 cds needed to install full 32 bit Slackware 13.37 It installed perfectly and all is configured and running very smoothly. I have 4gb of RAM in my laptop so compiled the 2.6.38.4 kernel with PAE support and slackware sees 4gb of RAM.

View 14 Replies View RelatedI have an mdadm/lvm2 volume with 4 HDs that I created in Ubuntu 10.04. I just upgraded the computer to Ubuntu 10.10.
I redid the mdadm commands to get volume up and running, did mdadm --detail --scan > /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf to get the configuration file.
But now, every time I reboot, it tells me that the volume is not ready. /proc/mdstat says that I always have one disk of the volume "inactive" as md_d127. I need to stop this volume and reassemble the whole thing to get it working.
This is what I get out of mdadm --detail --scan and put inside /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf:
And this is my /proc/mdstat on boot:
I need to do mdadm -S /dev/md_d127, mdadm -S /dev/md127, mdadm -A --scan to get this volume working again.
This did not happen with Ubuntu 10.04. I'm really fearing the loss of my raid5 data now.
Client is running Oracle VM Server 2.2.1 (kernel 2.6.18-128.2.1.4.37.el5xen). Storage is a NetApp 3210 (NFS configured to use TCP).
Iptables on client has udp and tcp ports 111, 2049 and the NFS server ports opened. Info retrieved using: rpcinfo -p NetApp
When trying a manual mount ...
But when using the proto=tcp option, it works ...
Stopping iptables also works (I can manually mount the share without using proto=tcp).
Is the mounting process somehow trying to negotiate first using udp which the Netapp doesn't respond and hence it fails by timing out?
Can I configure iptables such that I don't have to use the proto=tcp option? Or is there another configuration file I can tweak so that I don't have to use the proto=tcp option?
I have a script which runs a few other scripts (in subfolders of the first script) in order to mount some unix/linux shares) Anyway, when I run the file from rc.local and try to pipe the output into a file the file is empty and the shares are not mounted. however when I run the file it mounts everything.... Also, the script doesn't work on my wireless clients...

I've been using Xfce for some time now, but I'd like to return to fluxbox or trying fwm.

I am planning to develop an application that will have a GUI. The first priority is stability and second is performance. Portability and eye candy is not important. To fit these primary requirements the app will be run under and optimized for Fluxbox WM.
What is the best GUI development kit such as Qt, GTK or FLTK that is best fit for such an app? I mean what is the most stable, reliable and fast GUI development library that works best with Fluxbox?
I was trying to edit a file requiring root permissions, so I used sudo. I typed the root password and it failed. This happened three times, and the process was ended. I then logged in as root (su) and was able to navigate to the file and make changes as root. Am I missing something? How would I edit the sudoers file such that this password would work? Or is there another way to log in to the sudo group to make these changes? How do I set sudo passwords?

I installed freenx-0.7.3-i486-1alien.tgz on the server (with Slack 12.1), all according to instructions. I installed the no machine nxclient 3.4.0-7 on the client (with Slack 12.2). I ran setup and configured. I used the default no-machine keys, not custom ones. Since authentication failed at the beginning, I enabled DBauthentication, and added my user and password, which seemed to allow authentication to occur.
Here is my node.conf:

# This file is provided by FreeNX. It should be placed either into
# /etc/nxserver/node.conf (FreeNX style) or /usr/NX/etc/node.conf
