Software :: Allow A Group/user To Execute A Command, Where One Of The Parameters Of The Command Is A Group As Well?
May 3, 2010
Is it possible to allow a group/user to execute a command, where one of the parameters of the command is a group as well? example that does not work as intended:
Code:
Cmnd_alias SU=/bin/su -l %group1 This example works sortof, it treats the "%group1" literally. I know I can list out the "/bin/su -l <eachuser>", but as you can imagine that is impractical. In this example, I want people in group2(not shown for brevity sake) to be able to su to someone in group1

I'm trying to allow a specific group on my machine to execute one command with sudo without requiring a password, so what I want to do is add something like this to sudoers:
%groupName ALL = (ALL) NOPASSWD: /bin/bash /path/to/shfile.sh argument1 argument2
argument1 needs to be a url : http://subdomain1.subdomain2.domain.com
argument2 needs to be a path of the form /var/www/demo/SomeFolder/application/config/config.php
How do I put in a regex form that sudoers will understand ? I tried reading the sudoers manual, but it didn't help a lot .

Is there a method at the command line to copy files from one location to another and retain the source files group and user?I'm migrating some MySQL files from one machine to another.I want to back-up the original files in the directory presently. They have owner:group of mysql, some have owner:group root:mysql and so on. To copy them under cli or Nautilus everything changes to root for I execute sudo cp or gksudo nautilus and copy via gui.
Since it is MySQL data I could simply do a dump of the database and restore it on the other machine. But there's about 20 db's and I want to do this via a copy for it will be faster - at least that is what I think.

I have huge text files with two fields, the first is a string the second is an integer. The files are sorted by the first field. What I'd like to get in the output is one line per unique string and the sum of the numbers for the identical strings. Some strings appear only once while other appear multiple times. Given the sample data below, for the string glehnia I'd like to get 10+22=32 in the result. how to do this either with gnuwin32 command line tools or in linux shell?
[Code]...

To put it simply I want the egrep command to return matches for a group rather than the whole pattern itself.For example:
Code:
egrep "reals([0-9]+?m[0-9]+?.[0-9]{3}s)" tmp
returns
"real 0m1.001s"
But I want it to return just "0m1.001s", the portion is the group. I can just apply egrep to whatever the first command returns but is there an easier way to do it?

[Code]....
how to search for 1000 then assign them group 1 and then 1001-1999 to group 2 etc.

I've been tasked with fixing a Red Hat system that dies with a kernel panic during the boot stage:
Code:
EXT3-fserror (dev sda1): ext3_check_descriptors: Inode bitmap for group 4 not in group (block 67239937)!
EXT3-fs: group descriptors corrupted!
mount: error mounting /dev/root on /sysroot as ext3: Invalid argument
I can boot into a Rescue CD, but I'm a bit out of my element because I don't use EXT3 myself, and I've never had to repair a corrupted file system before.

I have a group (GROUP) with a number of users. I recently added a new user (NEW). NEW is able to read but not write group files, whereas all the other users in the group can read and write to the group files. The permissions for the group files indicate that all members of group should have write permission -rwxrwxr-x
/etc/group indicates that NEW is a member of GROUP
...
GROUP:x:501:GROUP,OLD,OLD2,OLD3,OLD4,....,NEW
[code]....
Don't know if it matters, but both OLD and NEW write to the GROUP files over an internet connection. why NEW can't write to GROUP files? Is there a maximum number of members in a group that I might have exceeded?

I have a number of users, categorised into various groups. I would like one of those groups ("developers") to be in the wheel group as well. I don't want to just copy the people from the developers group into wheel, because then when that group changes I'll have to change it in two places. Is there a way to specify that anyone in developers is in wheel, and have that be dynamic?

Here are some example files that are shared through samba:
-rwxrwx--- user1 group1 file1.txt
-rwxrwx--- user1 group1 file2.txt
When user2 (who is also a member of group1) edits file2.txt the permissions change:
-rwxrwx--- user1 group1 file1.txt
-rwxrw---- user2 group1 file2.txt
user1 then has issues opening the file. This also goes for new files that are created (they are missing the group execute permission).
I have set the option "create mask = 0770" in my smb.conf. Without this set, permissions default to something like -rwxr--r--

Code: cmd='date | wc'
$cmd If this script is executed, an error is generated. The reason written was that "The execution fails because the pipe is not expanded and is passed to date as an argument".What is meant by expansion of pipe. When we execute date | wc on the command line, it goes fine.then | is not treated as an argument. Why?

A bit of an oddity that I've recently run into with my storage folder in my system; it's a newly installed drive that I've set to mount at /storage. When I first tried to use it, programs that I used that attempted to write to it tossed Access Denied errors at me in their own way. Checking the permissions (at the Terminal, ls -l / | grep storage) showed that /storage was set to 'rwxrwxr--'--Owner and Group were given full read/write/execute, but Others could only read. However, my logon to my system is a member of group root. Why, then, with the above bits set, would I not be able to write to it? Changing Others permissions to rwx (and presumably rw would have worked out for me since I don't leave anything executable there) allowed me to write to it, but I don't understand why that would have been necessary. So far as I'm aware, the prior drive that was in my system--mounted at the same location--did not need this treatment.

I'm using nfs to mount the folder /mirror from a server onto a node.
This works, except on the node the user and group are displayed as "4294967294".
On the server: ls -al ./ displays
-rw-r--r-- 1 cu cu 0 2011-07-11 15:08 test1
-rw-r--r-- 1 cu cu 0 2011-07-11 15:08 test2
whereas on the node
-rw-r--r-- 1 4294967294 4294967294 0 2011-07-11 15:08 test1
-rw-r--r-- 1 4294967294 4294967294 0 2011-07-11 15:08 test2
I have usermod and groupmod the username cu to have the same numbers on the node.
On the server: id displays
uid=1021(cu) gid=1007(cu) groups=1007(cu),109(admin)
on the node
uid=1021(cu) gid=1007(cu) groups=1007(cu)
I'm stumpeed as to what the problem could be.
I should perhaps add that the home directory is /mirror/cu (so that the users share the same account when mounted). Not sure if thats relevent though...
My /etc/exports file (on the server) looks like this
/mirror *(rw,sync)
and I do the mount (on the node) with
sudo mount server:/mirror /mirror
