Ubuntu :: Change Just One Folder To Default To 775 Perms Instead Of 755?
Sep 12, 2010
I want multiple users to have full reign to. As a result, this share is already set up with the gid being set, so any files/folders that get written to it are automatically assigned the group "share", to which the users in question are members of this group "share."
The problem is, if Bob creates something, it comes down as bob:share with 755 perms, so Fred cannot write/delete. What it optimal is having 775 perms, but it's hard for an administrator to continually do this over and over when it'd be nice to just automatically set the perms on the fly to 775. How can I change just one folder to default to 775 perms instead of 755?

I am attempting to alter the permissions of /dev/snd and its contents to rw-rw-rw at boot time via the file /etc/security/console.perms.d/99-snd.perms, which contains the following lines:
##
<sound>=/dev/snd/* /dev/snd
<console> 0666 <sound> 0600 root
##
This has worked with previous Fedora installations up to Fedora 10, maybe even Fedora 11, but does not in Fedora 13. Further, the file /etc/security/console.perms.d/50-default.perms that has been present in the earlier versions of Fedora is missing; I don't even find it using 'yum whatprovides'. The Deployment Guide for Fedora 12 (there isn't one for Fedora 13 (yet?)), indicates that this is still the correct way to control console access to devices, and there are no mentions of any changes in the Fedora 13 Release Notes, but it is not working for mePS: I have verified that the permissions and selinux contexts of /etc/security/console.perms.d/99-snd.perms are correct although, in any case, it does not appear to be an selinux issue as booting with selinux disabled does not help. Searching through the various sysconfig, udev, etc.

I have an FTP account that when they log in they go to /var/ftp/uploads according to etc/passwd.I want to temporarily stop the uploads from coming in, but don't want to change the password on that account. If I rename the uploads folder to something else, what will happen when they go to log in since the /var/ftp/uploads path is no longer valid?

I cannot change directory to a more than three folder tree destination folder from ~ in terminal. I've checked everything. No Typos or misspell. The destination folder was recognized by "ls" command but when I went to it, the terminal said, "no such file or directory."

I accidentally chowned my whole filesystem to nobody:nogroup.Stupid, I know.I'm wondering if apt keeps a copy of the perms it set during installs like RPM does?If not, is there any other way to restore the perms easily?If not, does anyone have a quick screenshot of their root level perms on Debian Hardy? I can at least start with a chown -R of the top level dirs and see how close that gets me.

Because Remastersys has a size limit for its backups, I exclude the Pictures folder. Therefore, when I do a restore, there is no pictures folder; when I create one, it gets the generic folder icon, rather than the folder icon that is normally associated with the Pictures folder. I know that through properties I can replace the folder icon with anything, but I have not been able to find where the generic pictures folder icon is stored. If I choose a specific icon, and change the icon theme, the custom icon remains. Further, when I make a bookmark for the new Pictures folder, it gets the generic folder icon, no matter what icon is assigned to the Pictures folder. There must be a way to restore the generic Pictures folder icon, so that it changes with the icon theme.

I have a Windows Partition for my Windows system and another partition for my Ubuntu. All my data is located in another partition called User). What I did, in the home folder, I deleted the default user folders (Documents, Desktop, Videos,...) and created a link to to the folders in the User partition. So for Desktop, I created a link to User/Desktop folder, for Documents, I created a link in my home folder to the 'User/My Documents'. What happens now is that all the symlinks I have created appear in my desktop instead of the Desktop items I have in User/Desktop. Any idea how to restore the default desktop folder? I have removed the link to the User/Desktop in my home folder and created a new folder named Desktop and nothing happens.

I couldn't help but notice that there are some lines in the default file that resemble those that should be in a htaccess file.
AllowOverride None Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
AllowOverride All
Order allow,deny
allow from all

If I am running multiple virtual hosts, what happens to the default file? When I put my ip into a browser "http://ip.ip.ip.ip" I get a forbidden message. but all URLs point to where they are supposed to... Maybe its because I don't have an index file in the www folder.. (not at the machine, will try it later to see what happens).

when installing ubuntu, the installer asks for username/login/password of the first user which will be allowed to sudo and administer the system... let's call that user "ubuntu"
what if I want to:
1) Automate those answers (which preseed variables should I set if any?)
2) Change the default home directory only for that user... let say I want it to be /ubuntu instead of /home/ubuntu (because I want /home/ to be empty after setup).
I know I could tweak /etc/passwd after setup (before first reboot) but I would like to know if there is a "clean way" to do that.

When I run rsync --recursive --times --perms --links --delete --exclude-from='Documents/exclude.txt' ./ /media/myusb/
where Documents/exclude.txt is
- /Downloads/
- /Desktop/books/
the files in those directories are still copied onto my USB.
And...
I used fetchmail to download all my gmail emails. When I run rsync -ar --exclude-from='/home/xtheunknown0/Documents/exclude.txt' ./ /media/myusb/ I get the first image at url.

I like to use geany for much of my programming (I know people have plenty of opinions on that choice), but I'm using a university computer. On this computer I don't have root access, but I'd still like to install geany. The geany installation requires the intltool package, which you would normally install with root into one of the folders only root has permissions to. So instead I installed it to a folder in my own directory. However, when trying to use geany's ./configure, it doesn't see these files. How do I get geany's configure to check this folder for these files as well?

I installed Freeradius using Yum and then RPM, where the heck does the default program folder get installed and how do you even find it. I did a find . -name free and I come up with nothing. In Windows, I can go to a program respoistory, download a program to the default directory or choose one, launch the installation, and more often than not the program and most of it's components are installed in the 'Programs' directory. It is a pretty consistent, neat, and organized process. Can someone relate how Linux works in comparison? I am not knocking Linux, just trying to understand if there is a consistent method to how it downloads, installs, and stores applications.

I'm using Mozilla Thunderbird 3.0.4 with Ubuntu 10.04 but I find the default highlight colours extremely hard to read when new mail arrives in a folder.
The default colour is grey which is both difficult to read and greyed out items have tended to mean something is not available. How can I can i change the default colour to something much better or am I stuck with extremely poor choice ? Has it something to do with 10.04 .

Is there a way to set the default when clicking on a folder to open in new window? The default action appears to open in the same window. I've gone though every Dolphin option I can find, and there does not appear to be any setting that affect this. Konqueror DOES have a setting, but it seems to be ignored. I am running Suse 11.3, KDE 4.4.

Quote:
One of the greatest things about Linux, ( I'm currently using Ubuntu 10.04 LTS) is your ability to install more than one version of java. Ubuntu, and by default, comes loaded with OpenJdk, which is an open source version of Java. As I stated in a previous discussion, I had some issues to run glassfish with the OpenJdk, so I decided to install the "closed" version of Java directly from Sun microsystem's website ( Hosted by oracle nowadays).
After downloading the latest Java development kit(JDK) which also includes the Java Runtime Envirnonment (JRE), I installed it from the terminal. The java file I downloaded was a ".bin" file. I have explained in the previous discussion, how to install a .bin file.
The installer will extract all the contents of the ".bin" file to a folder in the same directory as of the ".bin" file. Assuming that you have extracted the contents of the ".bin" file to a folder on your Desktop called JAVA6, then the path to this folder would be:
/Desktop/JAVA6
after that go to your terminal window and do the following: sudo update-alternatives --install "/usr/bin/java" "java" "/Desktop/JAVA6/bin/java" 1
Then issue the following command:
sudo update-alternatives --set Desktop/JAVA6/bin/java
This should set your newly installed java as your default JVM and JRE.

Reason being my wife tends to get a little grumpy because she does not know which to choose from and does not like Ubuntu,,,yet.

On my netbook (I'm using Ubuntu Netbook Remix, 10.04) the default option in the Grub menu is Ubuntu. Problem: I'd prefer it to be Windows 7.
I've tried using Startup Manager, which I've used successfully in the past. The program loads fine and lets me change all of the options, and saves and closes fine. But when I restart, the bootloader begins with Ubuntu and a 10 second timeout instead of Windows 7 and a 3 second timeout.
I've also tried editing etc/default/grub and, again, I was able to change it and save it without a problem (default menu item: 4, default timeout: 3). I also did a 'sudo update-grub' to try to get it to stick.
Still nothing. Every time I start up the computer, it's set on Ubuntu 10.04 and a 10 second timeout.
