I use U.10.4. I have to take over the work of another, but all I have is the Hard Drive from that machine. Because the two positions are separate, I do not want to Import his Evolution over my own - but, I do want to be able to access it from my machine. Can my Evolution refer to the old hard drive (now in a caddy and non-bootable) for the Evolution account data that is there, while still being able to switch back to my own Evolution data on demand. E.G. in Windows the equivalent would be the way that Outlook can refer to different .pst files at loading. Alternatively, can I make the external USB drive (previously a running main HDD) bootable without losing all of the data?
I need to execute a SQL via shell script and i am connecting to Oracle DB by this way $USERNAME1/$PASSWORD1@$STRING1 and i need to get username, password and string from someother file stored in the Unix Directory. $Username, $Password and $String is stored in File A in Path A and i want to call it in the test.sh in Path B.
Format of File A.txt Username=test_db Password=***** Instance=ORACLEDB
So I need to become the root user in order to edit a grub file in a seperate partition, so I can get back into this partition. How can I become and stay as root user in the desktop environment? (I know you shouldn't do this, but I need it.)
I need to know how to have evolution, in the folder pane, show a separate inbox for each of my email accounts, i have 2. they both send receive fine, just a matter of organization.
I want to try out KDE on Lucid, but I don't want to install KDE on top of ubuntu, because I will end up with two sets of applications and software that is gnome specific to load in the KDE environment.SOOOOO, I want to create a separate user that is only KDE and a user(my current one) that is only gnome. Different names, different environments and applications.
Also, if it is possible, I will need instructions to remove a user as well, so in the future I decide which one I like better, I can delete the other user account.
I am trying to setup 2 individual FTP users. They should both have access to the same directory. They both need to be able to read/write into the directory. But, I want them not to be able to write to each other's files (e.g. delete, remove, rename, etc.).
So let's say the shared directory is: /home/ftp/shared/
UserA needs read/write access to /home/ftp/shared/. UserA should only have write access to his own files. UserB also needs read/write access to /home/ftp/shared/. UserB should only have write access to his own files.
It would be a unix box of sorts, but that is the only restriction. I could use whatever software. I am currently thinking pure-ftpd or vsftp but I am open to all ideas.
How can I implement this: I encrypt a partition using LUKS, and store personal data on this partition. Then create a user account that solely deals with this partition and insulated from the Internet. Normally for each boot I do not even need to mount the LUKS encrypted partition, and when I mount that partition under that special user account, I can make sure that the Internet is cut off.
I'm going to do the installation these days, could you provide a brief sketch regarding what steps I should go through to implement the above result?
I have an issue with evolution I use it on two computers. A Eee-Pc 1000h with '11.04' during the week (agenda / mail), and on the weekends a do a back up on a Toshiba Qosmio G20 '10.10' I press import or is it restore and everything is good. Except for today I am getting 'Invalid Evolution backup file' each time. I have tryed purging evolution. Even uninstalling it but to no avail.
I want to jail Skype into its own process and not the one I login with. That way, if a hacker breaks in, it's limited to this process and only the limited functionality that that user account has. The thing is this -- thousands of Linux guys run Skype, but Skype is hardly ever updated or have security patches, and we run it all the time. It seems like an easy avenue for an exploit. As well, my iptables firew all blocks input connections that I have not established, but Skype is an established connection. How do I create a Bash script that launches Skype under a separate user account?
I'm trying to reset the password that Evolution prompts you for when working with certs.Specifically, the "Enter the password for 'NSS User Private Key and Certificate Services'" password. I followed the instructions here, but they seem to be out of date. The files cert8.db, key3.db, and secmod.db are not in my ~/.evolution, nor was I able to find any files with those names in any folder referencing evolution in my home folder.
Anyone had any issues with connection to LDAP server from evolution as a normal user, but if evolution is started as sudo/root it works fine. This is on 10.10

I'm looking for a program that will allow me to remove the vocal from an audio file, and also provide the ability to remove background noise (as much as possible). I have an audio recording for a presentation we did at work recently, but the quality of the recording is not the best and there is quite a bit of background noise. I would like a way to clean up the file and amplify the vocals. I tried to use Audacity for this, but couldn't get it to work. Has anyone used a software program that provides this ability?
Is it possible to do in Linux each mail be in single file. For example: i am having all the mail in /var/mail/root.
Quote:
From root@localhost.localdomain Thu Mar 10 21:47:47 2011 Return-Path: <root@localhost.localdomain> Received: from localhost.localdomain (localhost.localdomain [127.0.0.1]) by localhost.localdomain (8.13.8/8.13.8) with ESMTP id p2AGHlx4004190
[code]....
is it possible to do every mail when i receive it not store in the /var/mail/root. and need to be store like /var/mail/root1(for firs mail) and for another mail would be store in diff file like /var/mail/root2(for second mail)
I have a file on a separate hard drive and it wont allow me to delete it.how I navigate to it in the terminal so I can remove directory there? I plug my usb lead in and go /hoome/boo/Iomega_HDD (name of the hard drive)but I cant get there,it doesnt show up as a directory.
I use DeVeDe a lot, and it works great for general conversion and DVD authoring. I don't know, however, how to create a DVD such that each of the original .avi files will be their own chapters. In other words, I have about six or seven .avi files (episodes of a season of a television show) and I want to create a DVD with those episodes that I can navigate separately. Do I first convert each .avi? How then do I create a single DVD with six or seven chapters/episodes?
Generally SSH related log messages are logged in /var/log/messages file. Is there a way to log them in another different file? I mean is there some configuration setting to enable this?
I am facing a problem while trying to log SSH messages in a separate file, say, /var/log/ssh_logs. I have tried modifying the syslog-ng.conf file as follows:
Running Red Hat (not sure of the build atm) and I need to be able to put all of the IP blocking in a separate file. It will eventually be uploaded to a large number of hosting accounts, and modified from time to time...so it isn't feasible to modify that many httpd.conf files each time we need to add an IP to be blocked. In httpd.conf I can add the "Deny from" line to the following directive and blocks it just fine:
Code:
<Directory "/var/www/html"> # # Possible values for the Options directive are "None", "All", # or any combination of: # Indexes Includes FollowSymLinks SymLinksifOwnerMatch ExecCGI MultiViews
[code]....
There is an include to pick up all *conf files in ../conf.d, and everything else in there is working just fine. I created a file called robots.conf; it currently has a set of mod_rewrite rules which work. So I added this to that file:
Code:
<Directory "/var/www/html"> Order allow,deny Allow from all Deny from 123.456.789.098 </Directory>
It is not blocking access from the IP with it in there.I've done all of the usual things; restarted Apache, cleared browser cache etc. I can also block it using that same directive in a local .htaccess.
Now I would like to create a third file which contains only those packages which are present in package-a.txt but NOT in package-b.txt. The file should look like this:
Code:
package2 package4
Note: The world "install" is also to be removed for all packages. Using diff command I could get something like this:
Every time I try to change file or folder permissions on a separate internal drive in ubuntu 10.10 desktop in sudo file manager, It sets it right back to the way it was before and doesn't save the permissions I want to change it to. The files aren't critical system files that are not even existent on this hard drive.
Its on a completely separate drive, Yet aren't I suppose to be in control of what gets changed to what? Instead of a Operating System doing something just for my safety? A simple AVI files permissions being changed shouldn't hurt anything. How to I stop ubuntu 10.10 from auto setting the permissions of my folders and files? Its really starting to me off right now. I've been looking around on google for Auto reset permissions for ubuntu, Haven't found one word about it. Yet I'm just going to assume someone might know how to resolve this? Or has dealed with this before.
I'm just trying to Forcefully set my folders on my separate drive all to 777 because they are all 775 and 755 and I can only access them with Write privileges if I run the SUDO file manager which I really hate having to do every so often I'm sure you can relate to how annoying it is to have to open up terminal and type something in to open a fully priviledged file manager.
I'm working on a side project where I would like to install three ubuntu server systems,each with only one task.So server0 would be the apache server, server1 would be the database and server2 would be the file server.which key terms I should be researching?
I am still puzzled by IT guru who still install a server version of Linux using the default partition system. I am curious about what the IT guys in this forum think about this, even when the server is part of a cluster.
I am new to linux platform and my requirment is to write a makfile which can compile a tree for source file and create the output in separate directory .
I want to add 50 new users, not on the server yet I want to add them all to group Accounting - with 1 option, not user by user I want to setup a default password for them all, and have it say something like 'You must now change password or no access will be permitted' Any other options I also want to do once, not for each user?
when I save my Google contacts to csv file and import to evolution the contacts are missing most of it's information. some have part of their names etc... how can i add my existing contacts so it's complete. Do i need to save it to a different type of file?
