I have a server running. I administer this server via ssh and sftp. Commands that are executed on the ssh prompt are killed when I close the ssh connection. Is it not?If I put a '&' or '&&' after it, will this process keep running when I close the ssh connection?In what other way could I start 'applications'/processes in the background? like rtorrent for example.

I recently hired a new tech guy to start managing our servers. In doing this I went ahead and upgraded all the servers. It has been awhile now since I sent him the details of the new server and the last time I talked to him he was joking around with one of the other clients not realizing how long it took.
I know on other server moves, my old guy could have everything setup and running in a couple days as a good amount of time is waiting for the data to copy over. I am starting to wonder if this guy is going to try and throw a huge bill at me, so I would like to know what hes doing on the server with time stamps just so I can get a idea of how much time he has been logged into the server. Does this server OS have anything like this built in?
I am new to Linux, have used KDE/SLAX before but am now attempting to use linux on my old computer to accomplish these objectives:

Now I have successfully Installed Ubuntu Server (Finallllly) but then messed up cuz I installed the Gnome GUI and now cant find any place where I can type any sudo commands. vsftpd should work for me right?
does anyone know how to set restrictions on the commands a user can run as sudo? i want to make it so they can only halt the system.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a server that is triple boot and the server is headless and accessed using ssh. So is there a way to tell grub before hand what os to choose or send commands to grub (of course I get rid of the timeout) to pick a different os other than the default one. Any ideas? I already know this is bad practice to have multiple os's on the same machine to be used as a server, but what about selecting a different kernel at start up.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI'm running a server using ubuntu 10.04 x64. I want to disable access of groups to "bin" folder so they cannot execute commands.
[info: actually because of a bug in cPanel (the control panel I installed) Perl will give access to all hosting users to execute commands.]
So what I wanna do is to ban some groups on 'bin' folder, for example 'my_group1' and 'my_group2" cannot access bin but 'my_trusted_group' can access it. How is it possible?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm having issues with mt commands. For some reason, my server doesn't like backing up directories using tar.
Code:
# tar -czf /dev/st0 /www /home
ends up giving me an error message saying "removing / prefix" and then using the command
Code:
# mt -f /dev/st0 status
gives me an IOCTRL error. I've googled the error code and haven't come up with a viable fix. Thus far, the only way I've been able to check which files are on the tape is:
Code:
# tar -tzf /dev/st0
Of course, without getting the actual directories on the tape in the first place, the only files I've been able to transfer at this point are just singular files within the directories as opposed to the entire directories themselves.

I don't know what's wrong with it. Does anyone give me a explanation?

I'm attempting to do a low level wipe of a server in our office. I originally attempted to use DBAN but it wouldn't recognize the disks.
I've now moved on to attempting to use a Live Boot of Ubuntu 10.10 on a USB drive.
I'm using the following terminal command - sudo dd if=/dev/urandom of=/dev/sda bs=1M
When I did this the first time it simply wiped the USB drive that had Ubuntu on it.
What do I need to do in order to have it wipe all 4 disks on the server instead of the USB Drive?
I need to clarify a few things about Veritas Cluster Services Example There is a solaris10, 2node vcs cluster running. There is a Rhel5 2node vcs cluster running.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI have an immutable script on server A, it executes a maintenance command on the remote servers where elevated privileges are needed. I want the developers on server A to execute the script and run it without being prompted for a password. The script contains scp root@serverB and ssh 'root@serverB', if run as root it runs great since I am using ssh keys. However, as regular users they are prompted for a password. If I do created their group on server B...etc and give the group sudo it would still ask for passwords right? Can I overcome this?

I want to add tomcat as service and i want to execute as service commands like /sbin/service tomcat start/stop.
I am ssh'ing into a remote server and then su'ing to root.The problem is that sometimes, I have not paid enough attention to the console message, and I have accidentally typed in the root password at the command prompt (when for example, I had failed to provide the root password correctly the first time - so su prompt went away).
I remember reading somewhere that a history of commands typed at the console is kept somewhere.I have 3 sub questions
Where (which folder) is the file stored?
Can I edit that file and remove the root password from it?
