General :: How To Encrypt A Single File

Sep 14, 2010

I need to temporarily store a file containing sensitive data in a public server, in a secure way. I think that encrypting the whole file would be much more secure than creating a passworded .zip encrypted file, because they could be subject of brute force attacks. Attacking a whole file of unknow format is harder, I think. I thought of something like the command:

Code:
$ programidontknow --encrypt mysensitive.file --output-file mumblerumble.file
then the program asks interactively for a password)
$ ls
mysensitive.file mumblerumble.file

So I get one file that may look like junk. I tried to search how to do it with GnuPG. But it seems that GnuPG needs much configuration I dont want to do. I simply want to type the password one time to get the file. It doesnt need to retain any configuration for what I want to do. In similar scenario, I would want to do this on a machine/account that is not mine.

Ubuntu :: Encrypt The File List Too?

May 19, 2010

I use this line to line to archive and password protect my files (with zero compression):7z a -p -t7z -mx0 ~/Documents.7z ~/Documents In the attached picture, I notice there is a check box to 'Encrypt the file list too' via the GUI 7z method. How could I add this option to the above 7z line?

Also I think rar allows you to 'Encrypt the file list too'. Could someone also give me a rar line similar to 7z a -p -t7z -mx0 ~/Documents.7z ~/Documents but that has the 'Encrypt the file list too' feature added?

Server :: OpenSSL - Encrypt Zip File With SSL Keys?

Feb 25, 2010

I would like to encrypt and decrypt zip file using OpenSSL keys. I have generated the keys and can encrypt normal text files but if I try to encrypt the zip file, I get error: "Error reading input Data" Following is what I have done.

generate keys:

Code:

openssl genrsa 4096 > private-key.pem
openssl rsa -pubout < private-key.pem
openssl rsa -pubout < private-key.pem > public-key.pem

encrypt the file:

Code:

openssl rsautl -encrypt -pubin -inkey public-key.pem -in test.zip test.zip.encrypted

I must use public/ private key pair (without any password) and I must use OpenSSL. But I can use any algorithm other than RSA (not sure which one to use and how).

Security :: Encrypt Entire File System - Fedora 11 64bit?

Jul 11, 2009

I recently installed Fedora 11 64bit and I am curious about encrypting my entire file system for security purposes. I've been on Google for a while now and I keep finding info on how to encrypt a specific folder or home directories but nothing on the entire file system (or I'm missing something big here). It's hard for me to imagine that it isn't. If so, do I need to encrypt the partition my file system is on before installing it? What software should I use? There seems to be so many, it's difficult to keep them all straight.

Server :: Multiple File Pointers In A Single File?

Apr 20, 2011

I have files a, b, c and d. They're all relatively large and are served up by a static web server optimized for this purpose. I can get requests that look like this:

/abcd
/ad
/bacdac
...

Each request is basically a request for a concatenation of the files in the order of the letters. The list of possible requests is finite, but large enough that disk space will run out very quickly and be very expensive if I create all possible files via concatenation.Is there a way to create a pointer file like abcd that is essentially a multi-file symlink that first points to a then to be then to c then to d? So if the contents of the files were as follows:

a: hello
b: there
c: whats

Ubuntu :: Single Font File - TTF ?

Feb 6, 2010

I've seen a lot of documents which use a really beautiful font. This is an example:[url] I mean the font which is used for "Problems", 'The area of a regular...'. Well, I found out that it's somehow called TeX font and I tried to download it. Unfortunately, this is font is separated in many, many files (Italic, Bold, Standard, Italic Bold, Math symbols, other symbols ...). It's horrible, because I would just like to use that font in OpenOffice. I wouldn't like to still change the style by choosing another font. Is there a place where I can download the combined TTF file? So I would just have the bold, italic, math symbols and other symbols in one font without having to choose the different one to just change a style or to enter a copyright sign?

Ubuntu :: Archiving Many (>100000) Files Into A Single File Via Cli

Mar 4, 2011

I'm trying to zip or rar >100000 files into a single file so that I can upload it to my server much faster than ftp downloaded it. Total they're all only 4gb, but because of the number of files Nautilus freezes just opening the folder they're in. They're all .jpgs and all in the same folder and I've tried a few commands but I keep getting error messages.

Anyone have a command that will archive all the files from a folder into a single zip (or rar, tar etc)? I can't just archive the folder because then I would have to move all the files out of that folder and just opening the folder to move them would crash it, and I don't have ssh into that server.

Ubuntu Servers :: Exim 4 Single Config File Location

Nov 16, 2010

I have a nice little interface that generates an exim config file and a script on the server to check for changes. Unfort I cant find where to set the config file location.

E.G. I have my script generate the file to /etc/exim/exim4.conf (could be /usr/share/foo/bar.conf just as easily)

How can I point exim in the direction of that file?

General :: How To Flatten Single File Directories

May 1, 2011

I've spent ages trying to build this and had a good look around for a way to do it. I have a directory tree which contains a set of folders and files. Some of the folders contain more than one file but most contain only a single one. I'm trying to move all of the files which are on their own in directories one level below the root into the root. E.g:

Root is: /volume3
Single file in a sub folder: /volume3/20110103/20110103.log
File should end up as: /volume3/20110103.log

I know how to flatten the entire structure fairly easily but its the conditional part which I can't figure out how to do.

Fedora :: Can't Get A Single File On Disc To Open / Solve This?

Apr 9, 2011

I haven't used Fedora or anything except Windows in my entire life. I decided I would wipe my windows machine and try out Fedora 14.

I did a fresh install, rebooted the computer, and inserted a disc containing the following software: Medialink Wireless-N USB 2.0 adapter Model MWN-USB150N. It a wireless USB adapter so that I can connect to the Internet.

I can't get a single file on the disc to open. The disc is fine because it opens on Windows just fine. When I try to load it here I either get: Unexpected Error: Error reading from file. or An error occurred while loading the archive or There is no application installed to run executable files. I can't do any updates I guess until I get connected to the Internet.

General :: Resume Transferof A Single File By Rsync?

Sep 25, 2010

I want to copy a big file from my harddrive to a removable drive by rsync. For some other reason, the operation cannot complete in a single run. So I am trying to figure out how to use rsync to resume file copying from where was left last time.

I have tried use the option --partial or --inplace, but together with --progress, I found rsync with --partial or --inplace actually starts from the beginning instead of from what was left last time. Mannually early stopping rsync and checking the size of the received file also confirm what I found.

But with --append, rsync starts from what was left last time. I am confused as I saw on the manpage --partial, --inplace or --append seem to relate to resuming copying from what was left last time. Is someone able to explain their difference? Why --partial or --inplace do not work for resuming copying? Is it true that for resuming copying, rsync has to work with option --append?

Also if a partial file was left by mv or cp not by rsync, will rsync --append correctly resume the file copying?

Server :: Speed Up Single Large File Copying?

Apr 22, 2010

I'm planing to copy a productive mysql innodb file from one server to another, and the file size is around 300GB. As the file is keeping changing all the time, I have to shutdown mysql instance and copy the large data file to other server as quickly as possible.I should have to find a way to speed up file copying ... I'm wondering whether there's a way to copy file block by block.If the destination side block has same content, then bypass it.
