I work with this travel company that host sites for different agents. They have ALL the sites in one directory and each site has its own search.php file. How can I locate, and change all the search.php files permissions to 644 in one shot? Is this possible maybe with the find command? I read the man page for this but I am not sure how to write out the command.
i guess this is an installation issue as i am newish to Linux and got a F14 laptop from a used/refurb store... Anyway it seem i have difficulty with getting GTK running or maybe it is WGET...?
i did manage to install apt-get and was able to run synaptics ... but now whenever i try to run synaptics it flashes the interface and crashes. i tried apt-get search wget and it says invalid operation search. i tried apt cache wget and get a crash box in the upper right corner... i tried apt-get gtk+extra-2.1.2-4.fc14 and it says invalid operation gtk...
All of which is frustrating my attempts to get the GTK interface to J working. Their script uses WGET which i also cannot get.
I'm trying to find a good desktop search tool. Beagle is dead, Recoll and Strigi are KDE, and Tracker is not many features (can't even search Thunderbird 3). Do I miss something? Is desktop search on Linux dead? Should I use Google Desktop Search instead
The desktop search has stopped working in Gnome.I get a message that says 'Search Service not running' with a button that says 'Start Search Service'.When I click the button nothing happens
Finally I managed to install my printer/scanner drivers.The last thing I need to do is to add the following two lines to 40-libsane.rules (which is a read only file):# Brother scanners ATTRS{idVendor}=="04f9", ENV{libsane_matched}="yes".How can I change permissions for this file or add these lines without changing permissions?
Problem: permissions for rsync and BackinTime. Setup: Ubuntu 11.04, Two internal HD, #1=main, single boot, #2=backup drive. Question: How do I set up my 2nd HD with correct permissions? Background: I had previously a dual boot XP+10.04 with a 2nd HD formatted as NTFS. With this I was able to use my rsync and backintime to my 2nd HD with no issue. My new set up is EXT4 on both HD.
(I even tried to reformat my 2nd HD as NTFS, but that didnt fix the issue) I followed [URL] to mount the 2nd HD and get permissions. But now when I run backintime i get this error: [E] Error: rsync: opendir "/home/myhome/.ssh" failed: Permission denied (13) I did my requisite reading for a newbie, and am stuck. I ran backintime as root, and it backed up ok. How do I run my user version of backintime? (i.e. How do I fix the permission issue?)
for example we search a file for a certain keyword..is there any application available which will enable us to search for a single keyword in all the files within the folder ?i want to search for a keyword in about 1000 files..if i do it manually it will take loads of time..
I have a problem with my external hdd, I mounted it manually and in the mount table it says ive got rw permissions. But when i try to change permissions it says:
chmod: changing permissions of `whatever': read-only filesystem.
This is my mount table:
[root@localhost ExtHDD]# mount /dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol00 on / type ext3 (rw) none on /proc type proc (rw) none on /sys type sysfs (rw)
i want to know what is use or benefit of using s and t permission?i have used them but could not understand its uses.please explain me with suitable example.Also tell me about umask command to flag on s and t.
How do you search for folders in Ubuntu? The find function is great at locating files, but is ignoring folders that I know exist on my computer, even when I add the "Show hidden files" option to search. Same with entering find or locate in terminal.
Is there any way, either with something included or with a program that can be set up to search for files in Ubuntu? I need something like the search for files or folders that was available in Windoze 98 and 2000. I have tried the built in search under "places" and I have found no way to get it to search a full drive or all drives.
If I'm in a folder and I press a letter, a text box would pop up at the button and the letters would go in there. It's very annoying, because when I am listening to songs, I press more the one key at the same time so I can find the song I want fast. Impossible to do this in Ubuntu with the search box.
I downloaded some software using tar.gz got it opened and working etc but every time I need to use the program I have to go the downloads find the tar.gz then find bin to use it again. Is there anyway I can put it somewhere so I can find it. I am using 10.04.
For some reason Ubuntu's built-in file search app doesn't find the file I'm looking for sometimes. My 10.10 build has been running excellently for some time now and haven't experienced any problems but this is a wierd one. If I use another app like Catfish it usually finds the sought file, but sometimes it gives a fatal error and stops working. Others have had this problem with Catfish, too, so I'm looking for another reliable file or folder search app. I've went thru what I could find in the Software Center but haven't found anything really good. I need an app that'll search for hidden files or folders on the whole PC
I have noticed that a number of people refer to using a PPA to get the latest version of programs. Some refer to conducting searches for a PPA. I have added some PPA's posted by others, but am unsure on how or where to search for a PPA. A search in a normal search site (such a Google) provides pages of results for Pan Pacific Aggregates.
find a file or content by name recursively similar to the ms-windows function search with Linux? I can do find . | grep test.html suspecting it's not the best.
For instance, running find . | grep terms.htmlgives my expected result while locate terms.html doesn't even though locate gets updated db - it might have to do with that it's an USB stick the file is on?
Recently one of the worm is spread in our network & so many unwated files are getting copied on our ubuntu file server like comment.htt, desktop.ini, winfile.exe Now we have clean that worm from our network but few files are remained on ubuntu server as well as in backup folders and i want to search those files and delete it.
I need the ability to search for file content in documents and spreadsheets and I need to be able to do this from the folder level.When I hover my mouse over the "search" button in the file browser toolbar, it says that it can "locate documents and folders on this computer by name or content," but that is not the case. It can only locate documents and folders by name. Is there something I need to download that will allow me to do this? I have nautilus file manager.
I recently used scalpel to recover .doc files. I only need to find just one file, but scalpel retrieved thousands and thousands of them, all titled after a sequence of numbers. If I could only search within them all for a single word I'd be able to identify the ones to check out vs. the duds immediately.
I am saying good by to windows at work.I've had it! But We use groupwise email client at work, but I can't figure out how to do a busy search in evolution when setting up appointments.Also, how do I go about syncing up the novell contact list?

Since update to 10.10 I seriously cannot figure out how to do a normal file/folder search. When I search a file it only shows the last day, month, etc of Zeitgeist.
Not only that but I cannot narrow a search down to a specific folder. I go to Pictures folder, hit Ctrl+F, search term = ground, it no longer just searches the Pictures folder, and I'm looking at 0 results when there is a file named ground.jpg in my Pictures folder..
how to do a simple search in Nautilus? (Elementary)
I have a few thousand .doc and .odt files (Word & OpenOffice documents) in a folder. Under 9.04, I was able to run a query search for keywords by using; Places - search for files - contains the text. It would find files with the text that I requested every time.
Now that I have 9.10, that search function does not work any more.
