Software :: Halevt Mounts Drives As "read Only" For Normal User
Nov 20, 2010I am using Ubuntu 10.04, with the Enlightenment WM, with nautilus for my file manager and I have installed the halevt package to handle the mounting of my external media. My issue now is that when I mount the media as a normal user it is being mounted as read only - any ideas how I can have halevt mount the media so I can write to it as my normal user in addition to reading from it?

Mar 16, 2010I am making a backup on an ntfs disk, mounted with:

Running this (or rather the shell script containing it) from the command line is OK, but if I run it as a cron job, I get thousands of messages:

These files are all ordinary files made under Windows; the above should read "offici�le stukken", and from the command line it does, but not in cron.

Server :: NFS Export Mounts On Client But Normal Users Can't Get Into The Directory
Jul 1, 2010I have set up an NFS server on Fedora 13, and I am connecting to it with Fedora 13 and Ubuntu 10.
On both clients the command
Code:
works fine. On Fedora I can get into the directory with Nautilus and have read/write permissions as specified in /etc/exports on the server, but on Ubuntu I can only get into it from a sudo'd command line.
The ownership of the file on Fedora is "nobody" and on Ubuntu it's "user #500", with only people in the "500" group having access to it.
Obviously the permissions can't be changed on the client, but with the Fedora box being able to read/write to it with no problems I'm not sure what else I can do on the server to let normal users on the Ubuntu box read it.
Ubuntu Networking :: NFS Mounts Cause A Hang On Reboot Of The Mounts Are Lost
Nov 24, 2010I have multiple ubuntu machines and I connect to one through an NFS share. I have done this for a few years without issue. However, since re-installing ubuntu and upgrading to 10.4 I have a problem with my system hanging when the remote shares are lost.
Basically, I can power down the machine downstairs, and my main machine then has a fit. I can not open any folders in ubuntu, nor can I shut down. If I try and shut down the system hangs, last time it hung for 8 hours before I had to kill the power.
These are the lines in my fstab
I don't know what I've done wrong, or how I can prevent this from hanging. I have googled the heck out of this as well and can't seem to find an answer either.
Debian Hardware :: Mounting Drives As Normal User - GUI Apps
May 13, 2015I have two internal partitions that I auto-mount at startup using fstab. This works fine & I can unmount/mount as a normal user no problem in the terminal (umount /dev/sdb1) but using thunar (or nautilus) I receive a message saying "not authorised to perform operation" (I use the DWM window manager, in gnome it pops up with a password prompt).
If I open thunar as root then I can mount/unmount.
The strange thing is I can mount/unmount usb sticks or mtp devices as a normal user no probs from thunar! So, I'm assuming it must be my fstab that's the problem?
Code:
Select allLABEL="DebianLive" / ext4 errors=remount-ro 0 1
/dev/sda6 none swap sw 0 0
/dev/disk/by-label/Vault /media/Vault ext4 users,auto,exec 0 0
/dev/disk/by-label/LiveJob /media/LiveJob ext4 users,auto,exec 0 0
This used to work fine on my wheezy install, only started having problems when I switched to Jessie ....
Ubuntu :: 9.04 Won't Boot After PySDM Installation?
Feb 1, 2010Running 9.04 on an Intel PC, for the last year about.
Installed PySDM today in order to mount an external USB hard drive. Told the PySDM Assistant to mount the drive on reboot, and to allow any user to mount it, per the tutorial instructions.
Rebooted as tutorial instructs.
And my PC won't reboot. Hangs with an unable to mount error.
I can boot the PC off an Ubuntu 9.10 CD, and see my data, but cannot uninstall PySDM (which I assume is the immediate fix).
How do I get this PySDM off my PC so I can boot it up as usual and rescue my data?
Ubuntu Networking :: Cant Add Rw Permissions To Fat Partition Using Pysdm?
Jun 20, 2010Im trying to share a fat partition using samba. The sharing thing is not a problem thanks to samba which works perfectly.The problem is with the partition Im willing to share over my network. Everytime I reboot my machine, I have to go to Places and lect the Fat drive.I have read that I have to modify the fstab file to make it automontable. For this I have used pysdm to admin the fat partition and make it automontable. It works fine but Im unable to give write permisions to everyone to write over this drive. Even my user when using ubuntu has no write permisions on this drive.These are the comand Im using for pysdm
$sudo pysdm
And these are the params Im setting in fstab file with pysdm:
/dev/sdb1 /media/sdb1 vfat umask=777,dmask=777,fmask=777 0 0
Ubuntu wont mount the drive with this settings, only with "defaults"
OpenSUSE :: Is There Some Reason I Don't Want To Use PySDM
Apr 22, 2010Back in 2005 somebody wrote PySDM for Ubuntu. I was just looking to see if we @ openSUSE had such a handy tool, and I can't find any. Nor is PySDM found in WebPIN. Am I missing something in Yast (to edit fstab)? Is there some reason I don't want to use PySDM (that I don't know)?

Ubuntu :: Auto Mount With PySDM - Drive Including Audio Library Is Gone
Jul 27, 2010I wanted to auto mount one of my drives at the startup so I installed PySDM. After that every time I login to Ubuntu every single drive is mounted with a new name, for example one of my drives was located at /media/Local Disk and now it's /media/sda6, so every link to that drive including my audio library is gone. I unchecked the 'auto-mount at startup' option in PySDM and it didn't solve anything, I even uninstall PySDM and it everything is mounted as soon as Ubuntu starts up. The funny thing is there is a 10GB recovery drive on my hard disk that was never visible in Ubuntu and I was happy with that, but now it is mounted on startup too, with the name of sda1. What should I do?
View 9 Replies View RelatedUbuntu Security :: Md5 In Terminal Hashes Differently Than PHP?
Jan 16, 2010I'm trying to generate MD5 hashtext within gnome-terminal that will match that generated by PHP running on a live web server. However, when I hash the same text I get completely different results!
Code:
<?php md5('testing123') ?> ===> 7f2ababa423061c509f4923dd04b6cf1
bash$ echo 'testing123' | openssl md5 ===> bad9425ff652b1bd52b49720abecf0ba
Could this be a character set problem? My terminal is running UTF-8, but even if I change it to ISO-8859-1, the hashtext that's generated is the same. Also tried using md5sum with a text file, saved in various character encodings, but still got the same [wrong] hashtext. I'm running Ubuntu 9.10, tried running the local hash in both gnome-terminal 2.28.1 and the CTRL+ALT+F1 console.

View 2 Replies View RelatedGeneral :: Why Does Sha1sum Act Differently With The Same Input
Jun 22, 2010I'm trying to replicate the behavior of the sha1sum executable in some java code, however, in the process I've discovered that sha1sum appears to behave differently given the same input in two scenarios.
Assume input of '12345' without the single quotes and with no newline.
If I put this data into a file (file1) and run sha1sum from the command line:
However, if I do this, I get a different result:
Using the apache commons-codec jar, I'm able to read in file1, get it's contents, and perform a .shahex() on the content and get the first result. However, I need to get the second result (due to legacy code) and I can't figure out why sha1sum is behaving differently, or what grep is doing to the input.
The system is running CentOS 5.4 with sha1sum 5.97

View 2 Replies View RelatedUbuntu :: 10.04.GNOME (Classic) Why Does Some Terminal Window Background Appear Differently
May 22, 2011Why does on some computers my terminal window have a background I can see through and on others its a solid color? I have Ubuntu 10.04 installed on 4 machines as base OS and I have many virtual machines of it also. I havent changed the terminal preferences on any of them, however on some computers the terminal background which is purple is not solid in that you can see what is in the background behind it. On others the background is truly solid purple; you can not see behind/through it.
Is there any way to change the terminal window for these machines that are displaying solid to the 'see-thru' way? Ive been using some ebooks and things and really like opening up vi/vim in the purple see-thru window that allows me to write and see the text in the background...however on some machines I can not do this because the terminal display is truly solid. ? All my computers have the same profile settings for terminal..
color = use system theme
background = Solid color
Note - I am making a distinction here between what I call see-thru and the 'transparent' setting in the terminal preferences as this seems to use the desktop background and is different from what I am talking here.
Red Hat / Fedora :: Label Being Displayed Differently In KDE/Gnome
Mar 23, 2010So I ran a software in both KDE and Gnome respectively and it seems both of them have separate displays. By that I mean, one is displaying a part of the string(a Label) and the other is not displaying the string at all. I will include some relevant information such as the software uses SWT kit. Also the string is displayed perfect in Windows. If it's still not clear I will sum it up in a sentence. I am trying to display a label using SWT kit and, its being displayed correctly on Windows,partially correct on KDE(Half of the string) and not displayed on Gnome.
I have tried GridDat.grabExcessHorizontalSpace=true, but it didn't. how to approach the problem otherwise?

View 9 Replies View RelatedUbuntu Servers :: RAID-1 OS Drives - Setting Up A Backup Procedure For The OS Drives
Jan 18, 2010I'm breaking into the OS drive side with RAID-1 now. I have my server set up with a pair of 80 GB drives, mirrored (RAID-1) and have been testing the fail-over and rebuild process. Works great physically failing out either drive. Great! My next quest is setting up a backup procedure for the OS drives, and I want to know how others are doing this.
Here's what I was thinking, and I'd love some feedback: Fail one of the disks out of the RAID-1, then image it to a file, saved on an external disk, using the dd command (if memory serves, it would be something like "sudo dd if=/dev/sda of=backupfilename.img") Then, re-add the failed disk back into the array. In the event I needed to roll back to one of those snapshots, I would just use the "dd" command to dump the image back on to an appropriate hard disk, boot to it, and rebuild the RAID-1 from that.
Does that sound like a good practice, or is there a better way? A couple notes: I do not have the luxury of a stack of extra disks, so I cannot just do the standard mirror breaks and keep the disks on-hand, and using something like a tape drive is also not an option.
Programming :: KSH Script Behaving Differently On An HACMP Cluster Node (prod) & A Single Node (UAT)?
Dec 16, 2010I have created a simple menu driven script for our Operations to take care of the basic monitoring and managing of our production application from the back-end. Now, the script when tested in UAT environment was fine, but when deployed to production it kind of behaved oddly.hen the Operator chooses an option from the menu he is given the output and at the end is prompted to return to the main menu by using ctrl+c. In production, this return does not occur for some strange reason and the program just sits there.The session becomes unresponsive after that and I'm forced to terminated it by closing the PuTTY.I tried enabling the debug mode too (set -x) and still was not able to find any useful hints/trails as to why.

Server :: 2 Separate External Hard Drives With ESata To Minimize An Electrical Failure To The Drives?
Mar 26, 2011I am building a home server that will host a multitude of files; from mp3s to ebooks to FEA software and files. I don't know if RAID is the right thing for me. This server will have all the files that I have accumulated over the years and if the drive fails than I will be S.O.L. I have seen discussions where someone has RAID 1 setup but they don't have their drives internally (to the case), they bought 2 separate external hard drives with eSata to minimize an electrical failure to the drives. (I guess this is a good idea)I have also read about having one drive then using a second to rsync data every week. I planned on purchasing 2 enterprise hard drives of 500 MB to 1 GB but I don't have any experience with how I should handle my data
