I need a program that can be configured to detect new/updated files in my home directory and make a copy off these files to a truecrpyt encrypted external hard drive. Does such a program exist in the repos-and a good one too if possible-i dont want my drive becoming corrupted or the program missing files to copy etc
View 4 RepliesI intended to upgrade to fedora 15 but my old laptop only has 512mb so I have to stick with 14 (which is good anyway). I did this at the command line on the way the upgrade:
1)yum -y update
2)rpm --import http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pu...EY-fedora-i386
3)rpm -Uvh http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pu...5-1.noarch.rpm http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pu...5-1.noarch.rpm
When I realised my error, I removed rpmfusion-free & nonfree, xfce-4.8.repo & virtualbox.repo which I had installed after installing 14.
Now I am stuck with the fedora 15 repos in /etc/yum.repos.d/: fedora-rawhide-repo, fedora-repo, fedora-updates.repo & fedora-updates-testing-repo
is it possible to update repository via yum command like yum install/upgrade repositries
View 2 Replies View Relatedi was trying to edit my firefox apparmor profile. I used aa-genprof, and accidentally closed the terminal before the program was finished. Firefox wouldn't load properly after that whenever it was enforced. I uninstalled and reinstalled the profiles, but it didn't help.Finally I deleted the files for the profile itself ... now it will not reinstall them..I marked all the apparmor packages for complete removal and then reinstalled them but it will not put the original firefox profile back in.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI believe that the attacker somehow got in through the ssh daemon(OpenSSH 5.3p1) on June 12. From here, a user account named "crond" was created(can anyone confirm weather this is normal?) and according to the log, this account was accessed several times between Jun 12 and Jun 18 from the same ip address. Also on Jun 12, the MOTD on the ssh server was messed up and remained that way until it was reinstalled. The default ssh client(OpenSSH 5.3p1) was made completely non-functional.
I became alerted to the problem when my ISP advised me to run a virus scan on the machines on my network. Not knowing of any linux based anti-virus software, I decided to check for suspicious files on my hard drive. I found one, in the /tmp directory was a subdirectory called ".popscan". Inside was a script and a list of about 40 very default sounding usernames and passwords. There was also a file called "back.txt" in the root of my filesystem. Which is a pearl script that aparently spawns a shell.
At this point I disconnected the server from the internet and mirrored the drive. I found a suspicious home directory for "crond" I'm hesitating on setting up the server again for fear that it might just get rooted again. I would also like to find out how he got in so it can be prevented for other people aswell.
I'm currently using a homemade Python script to parse script kiddie IP addresses from logfiles.To this point, I've simply been DROPping any requests from these IPs using iptables.I thought it might be fun to redirect their traffic back to them, but as I am not an expert at iptables, I was wondering if I should use FORWARD or PREROUTING.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI have an OpenBSD and a FreeBSD system and a mac. I also have a Ubuntu server. What i would like to do is back up all these systems to an external hard-drive using rsync when the external usb disk is connected to my Ubuntu box.If i format the external usb disk with cfdisk and the create a non-bootable ext3 file system on this external disk and create and put all the necessary public keys on the Linux box then from the BSD's or the mac issue the command:
Code: #rsync --progress -avhe ssh --delete / user@ubuntuBox:/usb/disk/path/dir/ Will this back up the entire systems so that they can be restored in the event of an emergency? I should store each OS just in a separate disk file of the external usb drive each time right?? Because i would rather not have to format the external usb drive for each different OS. Would this work? and would the restoration command for these BSD's be:
Code:
rsync -avze ssh UbuntuBox:/usb/disk/path / I just need to know the basics. I'm sure given that i'll be able to automate the process. I don't want to clone the disks for forensics. I just want to have a way of restoring to a clean OS. This is the most basic question:All the howto's never mention whether or not you have to have an rsync server running on the machine your backing up to. So do you just push or pull from one end of the connection only or do you have to have a client at one end and a server at the other, as is traditional?

I managed to delete the Volume Applet that appears by default on the task bar. I'm sure it used to be listed in 'Add to Panel' in other version of Ubuntu however I can't see it there in 10.04.
Can someone explain to me how I get it back?

Looks like a program to view ACPI data.
FWIW, ACPI was not installed by default and is not an "officially approved" program; has no Ubuntu Logo next to it in Synaptic.
Also, I have CONKY installed, so I have CPU and GPU data on a window, but I would like to see those on a Top or Bottom Panel.
is it possible to install programs present on one computer on another computer by transferring package files? For example, let's say I've installed Thunderbird on one Ubuntu machine. Would I be able to install thunderbird on another computer by copying some files from the first computer?

View 8 Replies View RelatedI have a laptop with a wireless that needs a driver from what I've read;
Code:
apt-get install b43-fwcutter I should be able to plug it in (ethernet) & get it to work but it occurred to me that what if the ethernet didn't work either. So my question is how could I get the files that command would download to my desktop onto a disk so i could manually install it onto the laptop?
I produce a lot of work under Drupal, Wordpress and Moin. Previously I have always downloaded the software packages for these from the developers website and installed it manually. When I install it manually it is fairly easy to see where files and directories have been created and I just get on with the projects.I've just noticed that the above three packages are available in the repositories. Is it better to install from the repositories or manually with this kind of software?
The reason I ask is because a software package like Gimp just appears in my start menu so I naturally would download it from the repo. But if I download something like Wordpress I can see it is installed through synaptic but does it actually produce any new directories or files in somewhere like /var/www? I'm not sure how I would access the software once it is installed. The W3 Validator for instance, I downloaded in 8.10 but although it was showing installed there was no obvious way to access it.
Not sure where to ask but can we get teamspeak 3 in the repo ? Version 2 is not used anymore and the people over at [URL].. said it was ok to add it to our repo as long as we do not modify it.

I wanted to install opera browser (not that I like it) in my new lucid (updated from karmic) but the package is not in the repos. I also need libmysqlclient15off as a dependency for mysql-workbench but is also missing from lucid repos.
However, they are in the karmic repos. So, what should I do? I could download de debs and install them but my question is whether they should be available in lucid repos and if the'll be.
Some of the programs that I can install from the repos are outdated. Particularly, Amarok. In the repos 2.3.0 is available and I need 2.3.1 to fix a bug that's occurring on my system. How do accomplish this without having duplicates on the system along with any such error that might complicate the functioning of Amarok.
