Trying to get this server to work and abandoned trying to do it with Xubuntu last night and installed Ubuntu server. But now I'm stuck on Samba again as I decided to use the vi editor to edit the smb.conf file and now I can't get out of it.
View 4 RepliesI want to edit the file ports.conf to make Apache to listen only to loopback interface as described [URL]... here ,The text extract follows
Quote:
The Listen directive specifies the port, and optionally the IP address, Apache2 should listen on. If the IP address is not specified,Apache2 will listen on all IP addresses assigned to the machine it runs on. The default value for the Listen directive is 80. Change this to 127.0.0.1:80 to cause Apache2 to listen only on your loopback interface so that it will not be available to the Internet, to (for example) 81 to change the port that it listens on, or leave it as is for normal operation. This directive can be found and changed in its own file, /etc/apache2/ports.conf
But by typing [CODE]sudo vi /etc/apache2/ports.conf [/CODE} and opening the file I am not able to edit the file After going to the Listen Directive I am not able to type 127.0..0.1, Since what I type does not appear on the screen, the Keyboard is not working. How will I be able to edit the ports.conf and other configuration files
i can't edit /etc/resolv.conf with root account (Ubuntu Server 8.02)
root@webserver:~# sudo vim /etc/resolv.conf
"/etc/resolv.conf"
"/etc/resolv.conf" E212: Can't open file for writing
root@webserver:~# ls -l /etc/resolv.conf
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 287 2010-06-14 15:20 /etc/resolv.conf
I am trying to edit my /etc/resolv.conf file while under root. After saving the changes and reboot my computer, file has not changed. I read a thread on chattr and lsattr on this fourm.(see link below) I ran in terminal lsattr /etc/resolv.conf and got the following results:-----------------e- /etc/resolv.confWhat does the dashes and e mean? I thought I would get ----ia------------ /etc/resolv.conf instead, as shown in the link. What am I doing wrong?
View 4 Replies View RelatedMy sample rates are out of whack and I need to edit the daemon.conf file.
However if I use
Code:
It will open the file but will not let me edit at all. If I just navigate to it I can edit it, but I can not save it!
I tried going in as root from the terminal and using the code above and I get a weird error.
Something like:
Then it says core dump.
Am I missing something to be able to edit the daemon.conf ?
I am using Ubuntu and looking for a good editor to edit a file that is > 4GB. I just need to put content at the end and beginning of the file. I suppose I could use something like
cat "text to add" >> huge_file
To append to the file. Is that the route to go? What about prepending? In general, what is the best route if I wanted to edit somewhere in the middle?
I've tried VIM and it fails miserably. I assume emacs and nano would be even worse. What else is there? I assume to accomplish what I am looking for, the editor would have to be specifically designed for this by not keeping the entirety of the file's contents in memory.
I am trying to edit my grub.conf file. I am logged in as root. It says it is a read only file. I have tried to set permission with chmod 777 and also tried through GUI. Using VI it says it's a read only file. Using nano it will not write either. I have two choices on boot up. I want to automatically go to second automatically. First at the moment is CentOS-4 i386 (2.6.9-55.ELsmp) and second is CentOS-4 i386 (2.6.9-55.EL).

View 9 Replies View RelatedI successfully shared a subdirectory of my home directory, using GNOME under Ubuntu 8.04 LTS Desktop. What drives me crazy is that I can't find this directory listed in /etc/samba/smb.conf, in a "path" line. Please tell me where is this directory specified, since smb.conf seems to be the only samba config file.

View 5 Replies View Relatedwhen I type "crontab -e" to edit the file, it is not opening in the editor & showing output as "285".

Or if that default editor is corrupted when I type "crontab -e", how can I change default editor before using "crontab -e" command. I will be waiting for your kind reply

View 4 Replies View RelatedWarning: Do not edit /etc/sudoers directly with an editor; Errors in syntax can cause annoyances (like rendering the root account unusable). You must use the visudo command to edit /etc/sudoers. In the previous section we added your user to the "wheel" group. To give users in the wheel group full root privileges when they precede a command with "sudo", uncomment the following line:
%wheelALL=(ALL) ALL
so i signed in as root and typed in visudo now i alreayd made the changes but how do i exit and save super+x doesnt seem to do it for me since im not using nano and not supposed to cause it causes errors
Cannot edit xorg.conf on Fedora13. I do it from the root but changes is not saving.
