Ubuntu :: -cp Recursive But Ignore Some Source
Jul 4, 2010
I'm still trying to learn, but seem to be hitting a few walls when it comes to man pages. I don't know where else to look so I hope to get some help here - or at least another idea. I'm trying to learn c++ as well as *nix terminal commands, and I like to make a backup of my compiled program and .c files each time I reach a successful compile (99-100% bug free).
My problem is I like to use an alias instead of a script to backup my work onto a USB. I don't want the hundreds of log files (10K+) copied since I usually delete them anyway.
My alias:
How do I tell cp to ignore the folder '~/work/log' during the backup?
If cp doesn't have such an option, I am open to other ideas, but I would still prefer something that I can alias since I already backup my .bash_aliases file.

I have googled for hours and can not find an answer to what this means.

And I have a very long debuging log file I will not post unless requested. I also have added a ufw allow from all to all rule for testing purposes only.

To do this, I would like to recursively download all the pages within the domain, such that their link structure is preserved. This would be tedious to do by hand, however. As it stands, I could probably use wget for this, but I would prefer something more specially designed for site downloading. I have already tried webHTTrack, but found it unsuitable. Perhaps httrack with a particular set of command line parameters would work better?

If I runls -R1I get a recursive listing of all files under the current directory.However, if I dols -R1 *.avi, ie I want to search only for files with the file descriptor .avi, I get an errorQuote:ls: cannot access *.avi:No such file or directorySo it seems I am using ls incorrectly. What's the correct way to use wild card pattern matching when using the -R switch? Or maybe that isn't possible?

works fine on a FAT32 dsk:
Code:
fgrep -iRn -C 2 'print' *.txt
---also recurses one level and displays all kinds of data
---------------------------------------------------------------
in root / ext4 directory:
Code:
fgrep -iRn -C 2 'print' *.* or fgrep -iRn -C 2 'print' *.txt
---displays msgs:
fgrep: *.*: No such file or directory
and
fgrep: *.txt: No such file or directory
I am probably missing something very basic.recursive does not seem to work from root directory.Is this (as they used to say) a feature? This is on an 11.2 system, upgraded to 11.3 (ran zypper verify to verify. According to it.. all is well).

This is my sub;
Code:
sub projName
{
print "Enter project name: " ;
$PROJ = <STDIN>;
print "";
[code]....
I can call this routine and it works fine when I enter a valid name for $PROJ. If I enter an invalid name it goes to the else block and prints the statement. However, it does not call itself. Instead the script just exits.I've googled 'perl recursive subroutines' and the example don't appear to be doing anything different.

I am looking for a one liner to search for a string in file(s) which are in a tar ball (.tar.bz2 in my case)
Code:
-bash-3.2$ tar -tjf /var/log/ABC/07142011-1412.tar.bz2
var/log/ABC/07142011-1412/
var/log/ABC/07142011-1412/live_hosts.txt
var/log/ABC/07142011-1412/all_hosts.txt
var/log/ABC/07142011-1412/LOGS.txt
How can I recursively look inside all the txt files in this tar file ?

Is it good to set a recursive function as inline? I would think it would increase the performance speed of the program.

is there any way to ignore whole directories in Ubuntu-One? I figured out that you can use /etc/ xdg/ ubuntuone/syncdaemon.conf to ignore files by adding a regex to ignore.default, but I assume this only applies to files. So, how can I avoid the syncing of some subdirectories of my synced folders? I guess I could use symlinks as a workaround, because I read somewhere that Ubuntu-One wouldn't follow them.

find out a command to search among all *.dat files in a certain path (including subdirectories) looking for the following text in them:
Code:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Elements with small area
Element Adjusted nodes
--------- --------------
16294 NO
17889 NO
and getting the list of elements with small area printed in a file "ErrorEl.txt". The output should have this form:
"/path/01/A.dat
bad-el#01
bad-el#02
[code]....
I know already how to find out the dat files containg a certain string
Code:
c=/path/
grep -R --include="*.dat" "Elements with small area" $c | cut -d: -f1>> ErrorEl.txt
but I don't know then how to get the element numbers(16294 and 17889 in the example above)

I am looking for a way to setup sudo access for a user, so that he can change permission of all files of the given dir.
eg:
By this user can change ownership of files which are on depth bellow to given dir (i.e /etc/userA-conf/), but while trying to change permission of /etc/userA-conf/../user-conf2 , getting error, user userA don;t have that permission.
Let me know what will be the right regex/pattern to achieve this.
In Solaris it's working fine, but I am trying it on Linux RHEL5.

I'm trying to make recursive makefile work but it's giving me two problems. I have a top folder with the main Makefile and one Makefile for each sub folder 'one' and 'two'. Makefile in subfolder 'one' and 'two' are identical. The top Makefile (still a bit messy) looking like this:
Code:
# Directories
CC = gcc
CFLAGS = -Wall -Wextra
TARGET_DIR = bin
MAIN_FILE = one.c
[Code]...

if there is a way to blacklist certain packages when updates come around. The reason for this is that I have two repositories that contain Smplayer and Mplayer. But one repository versions of this aren't VDPAU active (but the build is newer).

I am trying to set up my cpu freq. scaling to ignore BOINC. From what google has shown me this is done by setting a value of 1 for ignore_nice_load. However the location of said value does not seem to be the same in 10.04 as in the results from google. How do i set this or is there a better way to keep idle processes like BOINC from increasing the my cpu frequency?

I am writing a shell script that finds all files named <myFile> in a directory <dir> or any of its subdirectories, recursively. I also need to take care of symbolic links that may form cycles, to avoid infinite loops. I am not supposed to use find command for the same
I started writing the code but got stuck. I thought using recursion may be a smart way, but its not working.
Code:
#!/bin/sh
findFiles()
{
thisDIR=$1
#cd $thisDIR
code....

However, can I run a command and create symbolic links for all files in a given folder and its subfolders and have all the links be in one folder?
I have a file structure such as:
FolderA
FolderB
FolderC
and I want to have symbolic links for all the files in the A, B, and C all in one new folder (FolderALL) for example. I have hundreds of folders that need to be done, so a simple 1 line command would be ideal if possible.

I'm having problems with compiling recursive Makefiles in my directory structure:
My folder layout is:
top/|- one/|- one.c (With main function)|- zero.c|- two/|- two.cin my top folder the make file looks like:
Code:
MAKE_DIRECTORIES = one two
.PHONY: all
all: $(MAKE_DIRECTORIES)
.PHONY: $(MAKE_DIRECTORIES)
$(MAKE_DIRECTORIES):
@echo $@
$(MAKE) --directory=$@
in my one and two folder I have the following Makefile:
Code:
.PHONE: all
all:
@echo $@
$(CC) $(CFLAGS) *.c
But when I compile it from top folder: make
I get following output:
Code:
one
two
Which states that directory statement by echo in main Makefile is ok but the files are not compiled in one and two.

I need a program which generates events when a file is moved, removed or its extended attributes are changed. I'm running Ubuntu Karmic Koala 32-bit desktop.inotify is the standard solution for such problems, but inotify cannot install a recursive watch, so the only option is to the equivalent of find on the filesystem, and add an inotify watch on each node. This is what e.g. inotifywatch does. This won't work for me, because my filesystem has 1 million files, and installing watches to all of them takes forever.
fanotify could work except that I would have to patch the kernel for that (I'm currently running 2.6.31-20), and maintaining patches to the Linux kernel is beyond my time commitment.I used to use rfsdelta (whose kernel module is similar to rlocate), but it just doesn't compile on 2.6.31, because it uses obsolete Linux security framework APIs.

How do I recursively generate a text file which has a list of all files on my server which contain a specific string anywhere in the files?
I know the following command can be used to replace a string recursively
find /var/www -type f -print0 | xargs -0 sed -i 's/old string/new string/g'
I do not want to replace the string, I just want a list of all files which contain the string.

I've mounted my NAS drive under the /media/ directory. I've copied a bunch of files from my current /var/www directory, using cp -Rpv (preserve). Now I want to do a cp -Rup /var/www/ /media/magneto/testing.cdw/ Based on the fact that these are two different file systems, i.e. one is a networked NAS connected through Samba, and the other is my computers internal drive. Will I run into problems with the date and time? how can I check before I run the copy?
