General :: List Directories And Number Of Files Inside Them

Mar 19, 2011

I'm looking for a way to produce a list of all the directories in the current working directory sorted by the total number of files that are contained with them.

Initially I though that Nautilus could be used for this, but then I realised it doesn't count files in the sub directories.

The best I've got for a command line solution so far is this

Code:

The use case for this is a situation where a user has a quota applied to their home directory which limits the number of files they are allowed to have and they have exceeded that limit.

Ubuntu :: Permission To Write INSIDE A Directory?

Mar 9, 2010

How do I use "chmod" command so that it allows me to write a file inside a certain directory ? This directory has permissions in the formdrwxr-xr-xOnce I try to write a file there, it says "Permission denied" ! Don't advise to use "sudo", since the file is created by some executable program compiled from a source code. If I was creating the file myself, I wouldn't have gone to this forum.

Ubuntu Security :: Write Permission To Mounted File System?

Feb 1, 2010

I just found that I could perform write operation using a normal user account to a file system I mounted with the commands as followed:

sudo mount -t ntfs /dev/sda1 /mnt/disk/

This is the corresponding entry in the output of "mount" command:
/dev/sda1 on /mnt/disk type fuseblk (rw,nosuid,nodev,allow_other,blksize=4096)

As far as I remember, when using a normal user account, I had to use "sudo" to perform any write operations (mkdir, rm, etc) to a device mounted using "sudo". But now it seems to be changed.

Do I remember wrong, or did Karmic have any updates change this setting? (I never manually changed user settings, except that I added a root user, but I never used it.)

OS: Karmic(up2dated)
Kernel: Linux stephen-laptop 2.6.31-17-generic #54-Ubuntu SMP Thu Dec 10 16:20:31 UTC 2009 i686 GNU/Linux

Server :: What About Git Reps Inside Of Git "file System"?

Oct 22, 2010

I have a file server that all of my windows users have their my documents point to their home folders on the file server which is on a raid controller. I then have an external raid array on the same file server that rsyncs with the home folders nightly. I also backup some etc folders from various other Linux boxes also using rsync and ssh. I then have an external server at another location that rsync's with the external backup raid array for added security. I am replacing tapes as they are unreliable and cumbersome. What i liked about tapes was having a rotation of say 3 or 5 days so files at different iterations could be recovered. I want to mimic this with the above setup.

The root directory of the external array where all the rsyncing is taking place I thought I would turn the entire thing into a git repository and using gitbak + metastore + some cron scripts (to keep metadata) I could then in effect have the same kind of features as multiple tapes in a nice versioned system.Questions...

1. Is this the best way to do this?
2. What about git reps inside of the git "file system"?
3. How much overhead can I expect from having to keep versions of everything?
4. Building off 3 is there a way to remove old revisions for instance only having the last 5 days of changes?

Ubuntu Installation :: SOS:error After Installation From Windows-no Main File System Chosen

May 23, 2010

I just completed the ubuntu 10.04 installation using the windows' installer.After the installation, the system reboot. I chose "ubuntu" from the OS selection screen.A message appeared that the system would verify the installation parameters.

Suddently, a message was shown:
"no main file system chosen. Please solve this error from the partition menu."
And it wouldn't continue!

how can I find the partition menu and set the file system for the ubuntu?? An idea would be to enter the installation cd for windows (as if I would wanted to format the pc)...wouldn't then the partition menu appear?

General :: Write-through RAM Disk Or Massive Caching Of File System?

Feb 17, 2010

I have a program that is very heavily hitting the file system, reading and writing randomly to a set of working files. The files total several gigabytes in size, but I can spare the RAM to keep them all mostly in memory. The machines this program runs on are typically Ubuntu Linux boxes.

Is there a way to configure the file system to have a very very large cache, and even to cache writes so they hit the disk later? I understand the issues with power loss or such, and am prepared to accept that. Crashing aside, in normal operation the writes should eventually reach the disk!Or is there a way to create a RAM disk that writes-through to real disk?

Hardware :: Possible To Write File-system On Hard Disk Without Any Valid Partition

Nov 15, 2010

I've surprisely recognized that it's possible to write a filesystem on a hard disk without any valid partition. Well, the general advantages of partitions are clearly. But what are possible disadvantages or limitaions if you don't use a partition (e.g. if you want to use the complete space as one volume for data mining or so)?

General :: Recursive Write Permission On Cifs Mounted File System

May 14, 2010

I have mounted a iomega file system on a cetos os machine using

mount.cifs //filserver-ip/directory /home/my-home/mounted-file -o
user=username

(** mounted as root) The mounting works fine.

The problem arises when I try to create a sub-directory inside the mounted directory. All the newly created sub directories become write protected.

I am accessing this file system from R software and it needs to write/create directories in side this mounted directory.

how can newly created sub-directories will become automatically writable, so that R can create new sub-directories and write data inside those directories.

General :: Cannot Change File Permissions On A Mounted File System

Apr 6, 2010

I have an ntfs partition that I wish to access as a normal user(non-root). For this I did the following. As root I created a folder /windows and did a chmod 777 -R on /windows. Then I added the following line to /etc/fstab

Code:

/dev/sda3 /windows ntfs-3g defaults,nosuid,nodev,umask=000 1 0

Now, the partition is mounted alright but the problem is that when any other user (non-root) creates a files in /windows (say by executing touch newfile) the newly created file has the owner and group set as root. The non-root user can create the file and he can also delete the file, however, he cannot change the permissions of the file and also the owner:group is always set as root:root. How do I get across this problem, i.e. how do I mount a partition, so that a non-root user can also change the permissions and ownerships of the files he creates.

General :: Permissions - Manually Mount A File System Read/write As A Normal User?

Oct 6, 2010

I want to simply mount an ext4 file-system onto a normal mount point in Ubuntu (/media/whereever), as read-writable for the current logged-in user, i.e. me.

I don't want to add anything into /etc/fstab, I just want to do it now, manually. I need super-user privileges to mount a device, but then only root can read-write that mount. I've tried various of the mount options, added it into fstab, but with no luck.

Security :: Remove Read/write/execute Permeation From Directories In '/' For 'others' ?

May 4, 2010

I was running '# ls -l' in '/' directory and I noticed all directories in '/' have the following permeation 'drwxr-xr-x' [except root's home which is 'drwx------' (after I change it from 'drwxr-xr-x' )]

I don't want all the user (except root) to be able to read and execute (in) any directory, I just want every user to be abel to read/write/execute only in his/her home directory.

my question is, is it ok to change file and directory permeation of the following directories in '/' from 'drwxr-xr-x' to 'drwxr-x---' or 'drwx------' recursively?

/bin
/boot
/dev
/etc

[Code]....

-I and the other users use the pc for internet, open office and email mainly.

-It does not run server(s) like smb/cif or NFS.

-There are 5 usernames (created by me, non of them are superusers) in th pc, only one user is required to login at any one time.

Software :: .htaccess - Allow Users To Write Access To Files Or Complete Directories

Apr 23, 2011

I have a site hosted with a cheap hosting company and limited control of the site. I need to allow some other users all over the world to have write access to files or complete directories and I have no idea how to do that. Initially I thought I could use "chown" somehow but it looks like it's a no-go with ftp and others. By default, there is a .htaccess file and a .htpasswd file in the root directory of the site and the hosting company suggested to use .htaccess file with something like below:

[Code]....

and put it in a .htaccess file in the directory of user1 but the server does not like something since I inserted that file. Is it an error in the script or is there more to it than that? Can someone point me to a suitable tutorial or explain what to do?

Security :: Group Write Access For Newly Created Files / Directories Without Changing Umask

Apr 3, 2009

I have several directories, each owned by root and a group of the same name,By setting the sgid bit, I made sure that newly created files and directories are owned by the correct group, and that directories have the sgid bit set too.On each newly created directory or file, the permissions are set to 755. This is because this is the default umask, and I cannot change a users umask. I actually only want files created below a particular directory to have group write access, inheriting this behaviour to newly created directories properly.I'm not on samba or NFS, I have to do this for SSH users.The filesystem is ext3.I started to fool around with ACLs, but couldn't find what I was looking for.

Ubuntu :: Change Or Delete Obsolete System File Type

May 23, 2010

I use Markdown to store all of my source documents. Unfortunately, the .md extension maps to application/x-genesis-rom under Ubuntu. I'm not sure why that would be a system default MIME type, but I'd like to change it.

I've tried using:

Code:
gksu assogiate

to modify my file type cache. Unfortunately, even as the SU, I can't modify the entry for this file type. The "Remove" button is inactivated for the entry. (See attachment.)

How can I get rid of this (obsolete?) file association? Alternatively, how can I make my new one (text/x-markdown) take precedence?
