Software :: Prevent User From Deleting Files On Pureftpd?
Feb 20, 2010
Code:- '-K': Allow users to resume and upload files, but *NOT* to delete or renamethemDirectories can be removed, but only if they are empty. However,overwriting existing files is still allowed (to support upload resume) . Ifyou want to disable this too, add -r (--autorename) .This is pretty much what I want to do, but I only want this done to ONE user on the server. I have many user accounts, but only one of them I want to prevent users from issuing the "delete" command and deleting everything.

what if the root user by mistakenly stops/starts any service and tried to remove those traces from the log files and save those log files. Then how can we ensure that our log file is trusted. Is there any way where even the root(superuser) also cant edit/modify the contents of the /var/log/* files.

I am a non-root user, and have made a directory into which other users in my group can write. The directory is setgid, so files and directories within it have the same group.I can delete files placed into this directory, but if a user creates a subdirectory with files in it, I can't seem to delete those. Is there something special I can do (other than, say, bothering the user in question or the sysadmin about it) to get rid of this subdirectory?
EDIT: Inevitably, of course, someone asks "why?"The shared folder in question is a mercurial repository. We can't use a shared-account ssh-key-based server for this like mercurial-server, and we can't just host it externally for various reasons. But that part works fine.We use Redmine for project management, but it does not yet read the repo index for file contents - it reads the working directory. So the working directory must be kept up-to-datecrontab has been disabled by the sysadmin, so that's out. So I naïvely put a changeset hook in the shared repo that performed an "hg update". This seemed to work fine initially, until, of course, someone pushed a commit with a new directory. While I had vague thoughts of trying to make a setuid script for the hook, I'll probably just consider safer avenues.

Formerly I add a user to the file "/etc/ssh/sshd_config" and run service sshd reload, so that this user can login.Now the user is gone and I have to block this user. I did as follow:1. Take out the user name from "/etc/ssh/sshd_config" and run 'service sshd reload' again. But this user can still log in.

i searched the forum about this subject, i found many post but nothing useful. i also wonder why a normal user is not prompted to authenticate as root to perform these tasks. i thought the file /etc/sudoers but i don't think this is the point. i tried the group "shutdown" but does not exist. i read that this is expected in ubuntu server so it should exist even in the desktop version, i guess.

I have, for example, a folder called "MyFolder" and it contains 3 files: MyFile1, MyFile2, MyFile3. The only file that I do NOT want a particular user/group to even see that it exists is, for exmple, MyFile2.So, when they do a directory listing on MyFolder, they should only see MyFile1 and MyFile3. How can this be done in Linux? The important thing is that it is not just preventing them from "executing" MyFile2, but to prevent them from even knowing that it exists by not including it in a directory listing.This is a simpified example using one file, but in reality, I have lots of files and some of those that I want to block are also subfolders.It is very important for me to hide the existence of certain files/folders when the user does a directory listing. It's also important that the files stay in their current folder (that is, I can't use a workaround which requires moving all the files into a separate folder and then securing that folder).

I'm using Gnome and I'd like to still have the ability to reboot/shutdown from one particular account as well as root. How would I modify the chmod command to add this ability?Also, I have a few users who just will hold the power button in to shutdown the machine. How can I keep them from doing this?// Pruned from the vintage 2007 Prevent a non-root user from shutting down, rebooting or suspend the system thread.

I have a large collection of CDs that I ripped to mp3 a few years back. I would like to go sell them to a store and get some money for them (I haven't used the physical CDs in years). The deal is that when I started ripping the CDs, the program I was using would insert a 2 second delay between songs. I would like to know if there is a program/command that I can use to remove this delay between songs. Some of them have 0 delay, so songs that fade into each other sound correct. Other albums have songs that are supposed to seamlessly fade into each other, but they don't because of this delay. Is there any way to remove that delay between songs or do I have to re-rip the CD? Figuring out which albums have that problem and re-ripping the CD is going to take a very, very long time.

I've got a directory of geographic data with ~2,000 archives. Each archive (e.g. foo.zip) has two files, the second of which I'd like to remove:
Now, I can remove the _num.tif file with the command:
How do I do this with ALL the files in the directory? If I try the -r (recursive) option, that fails with -d.

It turns out I caught the Linux bug. I'm now completely obsessed with it. Most of the time if I can't get something to work I do a quick web search, and I find the solution to my problem in the first link or three. This is the exception. I wanted to install XP or 2000 using Virtualbox OSE just in case I needed to look up something on Windows or print something off (can't find any drivers for my Lexmark printer). I tried XP first and it gave me an error. Then I tried 2000. At this point I went to delete the program and try again. The first thing I tried was sudo apt-get remove virtualbox. Then when I re-installed it, I still had my settings and partitions on there. I then went to the add/remove programs. Same thing after the third install. I then went to the Synaptic Package Manager and clicked completely delete files (or however it was worded). After the install it still did the same thing as the previous times. When I try and load Virtualbox it says "FATAL: No bootable medium found! System halted.". Also sometimes my pointer will get locked inside Windows. How do I get out of that? The only thing I was able to find was hit CTRL + ALT + Back and it exits both Windows and Linux.

I am connecting to a Windows 2003 server share from my Ubuntu 9.10 machine. This is not a problem & deleting normal files is fine. What I am actually trying to do is remove a virus from this server. If I have AV software running on the server it is constantly picking up the virus & eventually this kills the server. The AV software is unable to remove the virus on the server, but is able to on desktop machines.Anyway, I thought use Linux to do the job & get the AV software back on the server. No go. I get a permission denied error when trying to remove the files with rm -f "filename"Is there anyway around this? I am reluctant to start the server with the Ubuntu live CD as it is in use as a file server. If I could remove the files manually this would be good.

When I delete files from my usb flash drive on my Karmic laptop (press del key), the properties of the drive remain unchanged (available space/used space). It looks like the files/folders have been deleted, but when I go to my windows machines, the files and folders are now in a folder marked "Trash".Am I missing a step when attempting to delete the information when connected to my ubuntu laptop?
