View 2 RepliesI recently inherited a server that I'm now looking after, and when browsing the running processes I came across a number of processes labelled:"/usr/local/apache-2.2.6/bin/.libs/lt-httpd -k start"
At any one time there are between 10 and 15 of them running.Googling the issue has been surprisingly unhelpful... can anybody even tell me what this process is, much less what sort of issue might result in multiple running copies? I'm running Debian Etch (release 4.0).
I'm using postfix and the always_bcc option to backup the emails which are passed through my MTA. The problem is that (with spamassassin and clamav running as virtual-smtp agents) I get three copies bcc-ed through to the backup account. Is there something I can do to stop the bcc from being carried out on the internal filters and only work on the final send or mailbox delivery?
View 8 Replies View RelatedI have a desktop and a laptop both running opensuse 11.2 with kde4. I have a samba share on my desktop. I tried opening a video on that share from my laptop (wirelessly) with Dolphin/SMPlayer. Here's what happened:
The video started downloading and the system tray notified me it would take 25 minutes. I thought that was too long (video is 350MB) so I checked the download speed and it was about 2 MB/s. It didn't make sense but I let it keep going.
25 minutes and 3.4 GB later, the download finally "finished"--according to the system tray. However, I checked my system monitor and something was still downloading at 2 MB/s. I confirmed with "df -h" that I was losing 2MB of space a second. At this point I only had about 700MB of disk space left so I rebooted (I wasn't sure how else to stop the download).
After digging around on / I found my video at /var/tmp/kdecache-londy/krun and it was 350MB. Then I found multiple copies of the same video, of varying sizes, on /tmp/kde-londy totalling 3GB.
I deleted the tmp files and tried it again. This time instead of clicking on the video to play it, I tried copying it to my laptop. Same thing started to happen but I didn't let it continue.
I have a 64bit linux server with 5 virtual hosts on it. When someone fills out a contact form on one of the sites...I get 15-20 copies of the same email. At first I thought it was the kids clicking send multiple times because the first emails were coming from the children's ministry "Email The Cast" section. But then I started getting multiples from the adult sites too. All contact forms are set to come to me.
What's stranger is that my registration section for one of the sites uses the SAME php script (different file) to email me a notification that someone has registered but I only get 1 copy of that.
I want to take a graphics file and make 10 copies of it to the same directory, each with 001, 002, or some such designation at the end of each file name so they have discrete files names. Is this possible using cp?

Is it possible to open a terminal window with a few tabs and execute a separate script or command in each with a single command or script?
View 4 Replies View RelatedFor a while now, every time that I log back into my desktop from hard start or from restarting the X server, I get these 3 terminal konsole windows that are open on my first desktop environment. It's seems as though whatever work I was doing when I had those 3 konsole windows open got saved somewhere and is reopening them every time I get back onto the desktop. I've tried to locate the problem by looking in .bash_profile and .bashrc but to no avail. If anyone has a solution to this, that would be awesome.

I am running 11.04 with the Unity environment from a USB stick. With "Ubuntu Classic", I can open up my Home folder multiple times and thus copy files from one location to another with drag and drop.

View 7 Replies View RelatedEvery time I boot up ubuntu I usually open 3 terminal windows and ssh into the same server. I would like to either click a shortcut, or run a single terminal command that will do the equivalent.
I came across the "gnome-terminal" command, but I was unable to get it to trigger an ssh command.
Ideally I would like to have a script that I pass in the number of windows I want to open and the server I would like to ssh into for each window.
I have recently dual booted an Old Toshiba laptop with Ubuntu 11.04 (Natty Narwhal) It was recommended to me by a friend after XP was becoming unstable. To the Problem : I have downloaded Chromium as the web browser as I am not a fan of Firefox, but every time I launch Chromium... It launches into a random work space and not the one I am working in.. So I cannot open multiple Chromium windows.. So to find where it has launched it, I have to click work space switcher and find it.. If I click Maximise, instead of maximizing it to the work space limits... it makes it go over 2 seperate work spaces..

Let's say you want to copy some files from one drive (ext3 over USB) to another (ext4 in local box). You have a few terabytes over a couple million files.You could just use Nautilus, which is what I did. It seemed to have completed normally (after a few days).I wanted to verify that everything copied accurately, but I'm not sure the best way to do this. If I used md5sum, the verification would take all week, so that won't do. I used "du -bs *" and compared the sizes of the folders at the root of the drives. Most of the folder sizes were off somewhat - less than 1MB in any case. For each folder whose size was different, the difference was a multiple of 4096 bytes. This makes me suspect that the information du is giving me isn't precisely the information I assume it's giving me.
Baobab gave me different sizes from what du gave me, and it also gave significantly different sizes between my source and destination drives.I wanted to do a "diff -r source destination", but I don't even have a guess as to how long that would take so I gave up after a couple hours. It wouldn't tell me everything I want to know, anyway (if files are missing vs if files did not copy correctly).
So the help I need is:
1.) Is there a quick way to reassure me that everything copied correctly?
2.) Is there a better way to do such marathon copies? (faster and more reliable?)
Normally when a program is open an entry is placed on the taskbar in order to easily find it, which is useful when a lot of programs are open. In Ubuntu 10.04, when I moved a program to the other monitor (I'm using 2 monitors) the taskbar entry also moves to the taskbar on that monitor.
Now I switched over to Ultimate Edition, which is Ubuntu 10.04 with a lot of stuff added to it. When I drag a program to the other monitor, the entry in the taskbar disappears, but it does not reappear in the taskbar of the other monitor. So now the only way for me to find a program on this monitor if its hidden behind other windows is to use alt-tab.
What's the command to open multiple files in Emacs vertically/horizontally splitting window.

View 2 Replies View RelatedWhenever I start my netbook up lately, it shows that I have three copies of Ubuntu (at least there are three text copies.) Only the third one works, because whenever I load the first two, it does not get any farther than a command prompt-like text screen that says something like "Kernel Panic." I know that that is about the equivalent to Windows' "blue screen of death," and I would like to know how to get rid of the first two.
I do not know if this is exactly related, but it all started when I tried to do an update, and apparently Compiz is an unauthorized program (which is silly, since I got it from the Software Center. Now, in the third Ubuntu option, the Compiz is non-existant (I used to have multiple desktop areas where I could do work, and have gotten quite used to having many windows open at once, but now, even the icon that I used to use to switch between them isn't there.

View 1 Replies View RelatedBefore migrating to Fedora/linux, during my window days, one of my programme of choice was MS word. regardless of all it's bugs, it did all i needed it to do (eventually). Now in Fedora I have Open Office. As far as word processing it's fine. But when it comes to inserting Images I hit a brick wall.
when it cam to making bingo cards, I could choose multiple images and resize them with one click, move them all together and crop them on the fly. Open Office doesn't do that. My question is: What other option are there in the fedora world that could help me.
