Can someone show me a simple method to find out number of days between 2 dates?
Example: How would I find the number of days between 25-12-2003 to 25-12-2010? Could someone write a line of code that takes in the two dates and outputs the number of days? Or is there a program that can do this?
I know of websites that do this but I'd also like an offline method.
What offline method is there of finding out days since a certain date. Example: How would someone find the number of days from 1-Jan-2003 to 7-Dec-2010? Could someone write a script that takes in the 2 dates and output the number of days?

Is there any way I can display the number of days elapsed since 1st of January of the current year?
Can't seem to fine an strftime function for it.
I want to itemize addition for each type of transactions. The example below is for 3 days,10/13/2010, 10/14/2010, & 10/15/2010.
PROD =89.25+89.25+104.47= 282.97
TAX =9.37+9.37+10.37 = 29.71
ETAX = 1+1+1 = 3

I think that -mtime +15 should be ok, but in which case does the option -mtime -15 really come in handy?? go back 15 days until today's date?

View 8 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to install a custom-compiled version of PHP 5.2.12 on a RHEL 5 server. Since I'd like to do this repeatedly on other servers, I have built custom PHP RPMs that can be deployed to other machines. (I edited the spec file to include all the relevant configure flags when compiling the PHP packages.) The compilation succeeds without error, and all the RPMs are built correctly.
And yet, even though it is there, and ldconfig says it's there, rpm isn't finding it! I'm at a loss to understand why. Just to see what would happen, I tried copying libclntsh.so.10.1 to /usr/lib64. rpm can't find it there either! So what is it about this shared library file that is wrong?

I'm not sure what this lGL is referring to. The readme states that I need the below to run the configure, though that doesn't say lGL either?

Can we find the inode of a particular file using its inode number?
The reason is i want to know how many blocks are occupied by specific file.
if we consider block size of 1K.
if the file size is of 100 bytes. In such a case, when the file is
stored on disk, the file will occupy 100 bytes or 1K (since we have
choosen block size to be 1K) ?

I enabled D-Link (DSL-502T) router web management (I am aware of security implication). I was able remotely to login to the router (by typing http://23.45.xx.6y) before changing the default number 80. Then I changed the port number from the default value 80 to 21908 (https option is not available) for better security, and when I tried to login to the router by typing this :
http://23.45.xx.6y:21908
Yes I am aware that if I am physically near to the router then I can check that , but this is not the case with me. How can I make sure that I had changed port number form 80 to 21908? Does NMAP do a trick to reveal which port is used for web management ? or are there other better options?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm in the process of writing a program that is a server- it will accept connections and stuff, and spawn a child process for each. However, i've run into a small problem. I do NOT want to bother with keeping track of the processes unless i need to. So, i set SA_NOCLDWAIT (#ifdef) on a SIG_IGN to the SIGCHLD handler through sigaction interface. The standard says that it the kernel will then keep track of reaping zombie processes for me (a HUGE plus). However, upon receiving a SIGINT signal, i want to stop the server from accepting new connections (done), and then wait for there to be no new connections. I was thinking of just putting a loop like so:
Code:
while((wait(NULL) != (pid_t)-1) && errno != ECHILD);
However, I'm not *sure* that this will work, especially with SIGCHLD still ignored. So how can i tell if there are still child processes? I can't find any call like int getnumchld(pid_t proc); (i wish). Plus it would be inefficient to spin on that function anyway. OTOH, i would rather *NOT* have to do the same thing in a loop with a system("ps |...>file"); read(file); etc. either. Is there a way i can portably implement this feature (I was hoping i could run it on linux and the major BSDs, at least).
TO SUM IT UP:
How can i tell if a process has no child processes if i've SIG_IGN'd SA_NOCLDWAIT'd the SIGCHLD? Is there a _reasonably_ portable way to do so? I *don't* want to manually wait for EVERY process. Maybe only those still active at the time of SIGTERM, but that requires keeping track of the number of connections and whether those have terminated...
EDIT: Does anyone know if the above code *would* work, even with SIGCHLD ignored and the kernel cleaning up zombies *for* me? I checked the manpage and it doesn't say much.
EDIT1: Note that all of the processes are in the same process group and session. SO i can find them through this as well. Perhaps even setting the uid/gid and finding all processes run by that group?
EDIT2: i have an idea if the above isn't feasible. If there is no "elegant" way to do it, i could reduce the complexity by sending a SIGUSR1 to the whole process group. Each process would then set a flag telling it to send a SIGUSR1 in reply and send a SIGUSR2 when it is done executing. Then i could keep a count of signals. Maybe that would be *easier*. Or perhaps a count of all child processes and just a termination signal to decrement the counter.
I need to find how many threads are alive with respect to the current process for my further processing. Is there any means to trace this number ?[URL]I referred the above link. But sys/pstat.h is not in my system. Don't know which library gives this header.
