May 25, 2010
I need assistance blocking application in Ubuntu 10.04. block all applications for certain users if they do not exist in a certain directory.For example,we would like to prevent users from launching a portable copy of Firefox from a portable HDD or Flash drive.
I have a device that is working on modbus protocol andI have written a small program(with block TCP read method ) to read its registers via modbus protocol.my program is working very well but except those times that I unplug the Ethernet cable or turning off the modbus gateway during programs work.at this time my program stops on recv system call (if it reach this system call exacly when I unplug Ethernet cable or turning off the modbus gateway during programs work).I changed my source to work in nonblock TCP method, at this time with the same situation my program does not stop/block on recv system call but after pluging back the Ethernet cable or resuming the connectivity situation back it reads data incorrectly .this is my code:Quote:

How do I make an application launcher in the panel launch more than one application? Is there some sort of a symbol I type between the apps in the command line? Like ;
when an application is opened or minimized the icon of that particular application is not showing up in the top bar of ubuntu 11.04...how can i see the icons in the top bar?
so I am bored of how I arranged my desktop and I was searching for something new.Is there any application that will guaranteed work with KDE?
I tried this once with an application that I run in Ubutnu but the next time I turned on my laptop something horrible happened.My KDE was turned into Gnome,but with worse graphics!-something like Xfce-
I've just upgraded one of our workstation to Lucid, in order to test.Well, it was a good idea because now one of our Java application is not working anymore. After investigation, I discovered that the upgrade removed qtjambi.I reported the bug here*: URL....But I want to know if someone has any idea about :
- why was qtjambi removed ? - what can we do to run a qtjambi application ? - Am I the only one in the Ubuntu world to use Qtjambi and to have this problem*?
I've downloaded VideoLan (VLC) via Yast but the icon was placed in the audio folder. How do I move it to the video player folder? Also, where are additional icons stored? I run SuSE 11.2 (boxed version) with KDE.
I am getting no packages listed in Gnome application manager gpk-application 2.27.2. I have tried 'yum clean all' and get the following error messages.
So, I have this application called Impact, it is an explicit time integration Finite Elements code written in Java...
[url]
I untar the pack, and launch the application calling a script, from within the untarred folder,
Code:
This launches a gui which allows me to setup a case, which needs some setup file, tipically some *.in and a mesh file, tipically some *.msh.
Other mode of executuion consists of calling the setup file as argument to Impact.sh script ( CLI execution mode, for g33k5 )
My problem is : I have packed the whole stuff into a Slackware .tgz, that places it in /usr/local/Impact, and placed a calling script in /usr/local/bin,
Code:
Code:
I decided to hack the ImpactGUI_OGL_linux_amd64.sh script from
Code:
Code:
no avail,
Code:
even after adding /usr/local/Impact/bin to PATH... won't go...
I can run this thing from within its directory... but I do not like messing within the directories of my applications, this is why I sent this to /usr/local, and placed a calling script in /usr/local/bin...

I recently got a new desktop, and did a fresh install of Ubuntu 9.04 Jaunty Jackalope. The reason I installed 9.04 is because the laptop I have been on for the last 7 years or so suddenly stopped operating with grub updates. I would t urn the computer on and it would never get past the 'grub loading' screen. but thats a whole different story. So I did a fresh install of 9.04 off of a startup disc I made a while back. Then I copied my /home file from my laptop (the old one) and inserted it into the new desktop's /home directory. Worked like a charm (more or less), and all my settings were transferred to my new computer. Desktop, Preferences, Admin stuff, I can't find a problem with it. Now for the applications.
I've tried multiple how-to's but none of them have worked. I found one that told me to do the following in terminal. Keep in mind, although I've been running Ubuntu for about three or four years now, I would still consider myself a noob. Anyway:
sudo dpkg --get-packages <filename><destination>
this left me with a text only file called 'package.selections' I was then to copy this file into the home folder on the new computer and run the following:
sudo dpkg --set-selections <directory>
Up until that last command, everything worked just fine. The list had tons of package titles (none with a .deb or anything though) and their state, got it on to the new computer and ran the code only to get the following error:
dpkg --set-selections does not take any argument
So i ran it without the directory, and it gave me a new line. So I typed in the directory and it gave me the following:
dpkg: unexpected end in package name at line 1
I've tried numerous other commands changing up the syntax as I go, but haven't gotten any farther. My goal is to have all the same applications installed on my new rig without having to go and install all the packages one by one.
I have an application installed under the directory /home/ubuntu/MyApplicationI have a symbolic link on the desktop to a launch.sh script inside the MyApplication directoryLaunch → /home/ubuntu/MyApplication/launch.shI have ubuntu(10.10) running on a usb flash drive. I want to allow other user's to run the application by using the link on the desktop but I want to keep the installation folder private. So the users can run the application but they are unable to view or copy the files inside the installation folder.
I am trying to troubleshoot an application that is generating several segfaults with an error 14, but the application is not crashing.The program continues to run. I would assume I can connect to a running process to debug it, but I'm not sure what to gather. The program has several background processes associated with it so I'm sure I'll need to attach to the actual internal process. Does anyone have any experience in this to offer some insight?
I have a SSH server on Ubuntu 10.04 running behind a NAT. I have done the port-forwarding at the router. However say for example I want to restrict people connecting to the SSH server by country IP's. When I configure ufw with the following rule it still lets the IPs that are restricted through. Any idea why
sudo ufw allow from xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/24 to any port 2556
