I was installing a software in my Ubuntu 9.10 and after installation completed it prompted the following warning:
Warning: Your PATH does not point to your newly installed /home/pc/Reflex/software/bin/esorex.
To ensure execution of the newly installed software you should modify your PATH.
Note that "esorex" is the executable file and by typing its name in the Terminal the program starts.
What should I write in my "bashrc" as PATH to that program?
If I want to modify my .bashrc file to change the HISTSIZE would the following command be for example; HISTSIZE=200? And if I want to change the DEBUG_LEVEL to 8 would the following command be; DEBUG_LEVEL=8?

I would like to allow an user (example "nobody") to create files or directories in a shared directory but to deny to modify or delete something.How can I do that?Second question, on a file, I know that we can set rights for "u", "g" and "o". But like the NTFS permissions, can we apply rights for each users?

View 6 Replies View Relatedi've been wondering how do i know if some users create/modify/delete file/directory in linux, i've been using pyinotify in python script.this script like the example from the manual:
Code:
#!/usr/bin/python
import pyinotify, os, time
[code]...
We are looking to monitor and log selected application file systems for file create/modify/delete changes that will also include, user account that changed/deleted the file, file name and date and time of event. Everything I have looked at does not seem to provide all of the information that we need.Inotify seems to monitor modify/create/delete but does not seem to provide the user account. Auditd seems to monitor modify/create/append with user account, but not deletes.We need to provide this information to auditing for Sarbane Oxley compliance.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI currently run openVPN on my Debian box that provides secure ipv4 routing from my laptop to my VPS in a different country (and from there the internet via this box). This works fine. However, id like to sort out ipv6 through this VPN as well as IPV4 and not overly sure how to do it. The remote server itself has native ipv6 configured on device eth0 and it works (ping6, traceroutes all fine,incoming to web servers etc) nicely on dual stack.
How would i go about modifying the config (both client and server if needed) to enable openVPN to act as a tunnel broker to enable the laptop to use the ipv6 through the server as well as the old v4? (the internet connection laptop end will not/does not have native ipv6 from the ISP. Currently im using he-net tunnel broker but id like to run myself through my existing openVPN). VPN config details: Its using UDP, port 1194, creates a TUN interface, redirect-gateway etc and the rest is normal config. Edit:- if it matters the clients are all running windows so i cant use sh scripts to set up stuff client end.
I have a few ubuntu servers which have samba shares on the network and for the most part have had little trouble with them. Recently we purchased a few iMac's for one of our deptartments and, while we're able to access the shares, all the files on them are read-only and we are unable to delete/modify files using the iMacs. This is not an issue with any of our windows machines (W2K, WinXP, Vista).
View 2 Replies View RelatedWhen I add some path in .bashrc by commenting out old path and adding new one like this:
#EXPORT HOME_PLAY=/home/gem/old_play
EXPORT HOME_PLAY=/home/gem/play
EXPORT PATH=$PATH:HOME_PLAY
After saving above changes, I enter the command: source ~/.bashrc Now if I do echo $PATH, the path shows both the old PLAY_HOME and new PLAY_HOME. This is really bad and messes up a lot of things in my project. This problem only goes away if I logout or reboot, a rather very long process. What is happening is that the old path is added to new path element and the old path includes the old path element you want to remove.

I recently installed Deluge 1.2.0 from the following PPA:[URL]I using this on two different Linux computers. One is running Linux Mint 8 and the other is running Ubuntu Netbook Remix 9.10. The first time on either computer when I enable WebUI in the Deluge GUI it works fine.

Rebooting or reinstalling Deluge seems to have no effect.Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong?

My friend suggested that it is something to do with .bashrc file. I fund files like .bash.bashrc.
I tried to make a function to put in either my .bash_aliases or .bashrc file to make a local backup of a file, but when I call the function and try to use tab completion I get the following error:
Code:
cp: cannot stat `help': No such file or directory
The function I added is as follows:
Code:
function bk
[Code]...
Also interestingly, if I define this function at the prompt rather than in my .bashrc, tab completion works fine.
how to edit or add codes to ~/.bashrc?? and also what is this bashrc if anyone could explain... i have tried editing this bashrc without success... how to save the changes in bashrc...

I have what I hope is a fairly simple question to answer. In my ~/.bashrc file I can create this alias:
Code:
alias uChmodDP='chmod -R $1 $2' #specify permissions. and the variables work fine. But I cannot seem to get any love from this alias:
Code:
alias umnt='umount /dev/$1' I realize the likely problem is the variable following hot on the heels of a specific directory, but is there anyway to specify a variable in an alias like this? For some reason I cannot umount usb pen drives by right clicking, and have to always resort to the terminal to do so, which for me is no real biggie, but if I could create this alias it would be an even better no biggie to umount using the terminal.
Actually, the inability to right click to umount usb devices seems to be a Thunar issue since I run xubuntu. Using Nautilus I am able to right click and eject/safely remove devices. Using Thunar however, right click unmount always pukes back an error that the device must have been mounted on the command line or some such BS. But like I said it is no real biggie to use terminal, but an alias would be even nicer. I prefer using Thunar and Xubu most of the time b/c my laptop is quite underpowered.
Instead of moving to trash, how can i make the delete button delete? Delete is already enabled on the right click menu.

Quote:
rsync -a --delete --progress --log-file=/home/$USER/info.txt -e ssh /home /etc root@192.168.0.106:/mnt/back
The problem is it does not delete files that has been removed from my local system?
I run the command as root on the local system.
(I realize I should properly not ssh into the server as the server's root but I'm having trouble with the permissions and I want to make sure everything else works before messing around with it)
I was wondering whether anyone knows how to add preformatted text to the bashrc file? I'm ashamed to say I did already read this somewhere but had no use for it and as such forgot it! I'm possibly googling the wrong keywords, so apologies if it's an easy answer to find (with the right keywords!).
Just for completeness, the reason I'm doing my bit introducing my partner to linux, and I've 'embedded' a terminal on her desktop, I want to now add a little ASCII animal with a welcome message (I'm ok with getting the welcome message and colors sorted), much like the one seen in Linux Mint.
I,m having a rough time getting the terminal environment to recognize my android debug bridge path (which is set in a separate hdd) I used to paste this in my bashrc, but then found that it would make the env system bonkers whenever i attempted sudoing with an option:
# Android Debug Bridge (ADB) sdk path
alias sudo='sudo env PATH=$PATH'
export PATH=${PATH}:/media/Disk/Linux/Android/sdk/platform-tools/
The "alias" line was the one making me have a rough time with env.
Now that i got rid of it everything is well but adb's path isn't exported anymore.

I'd like to know if there is a way to define commands in the .bashrc or .bash_profile. For instance, I want to be able to type 'work' in a terminal and set up an interactive work environment on my universities cluster. (This is done with the command 'qsub -I -X'.) I tried the following in my .bashrc file:
alias work ='qsub -I -X'
But, of course this failed, as I don't have a command work already defined. How do I go about doing this? Also, I can't assign 'qsub' an alias, since it's used with different options quite extensively.
I have been working on this script and I just made a ridiculous error. I tried to move my script out of my home directory and for some reason I put in "mv myscript .bashrc" Now my .bashrc file has nothing but my script in there... I think I may have overwritten some important info. Is running cp /root/.bashrc ~
