I have been trying to get my cgi-bin from /var/lib to /var/www my web servers directory. I used webmin as I run 10.04 lts server on a laptop. So I either ssh or use webmin to changes stuff on my ubuntu box. Using webmin I copied every directive from the /var/lib to my new one.
View 3 RepliesI want to update all the machines in the network from a central repository which is on my master server and whose archive directory is shared through samba.I searched in the man page of sources.list and found that there is an option for this but can't able to implement this. Can anybody kindly tell me the way to do the same.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI was wondering if we could cd in the directory of the PATH variable. For example, if I type in echo $DISPLAY. It will give me /tmp/launch-3ee4fg/org.x:0
Is there any way that I can just take the value '/tmp/launch-3ee4fg/' from the output of $DISPLAY and exclude out the filename to the end of the command. I tried using the read command and the IFS variable..apparently IFS does not recognise / I guess.
using FTP Directory mounted, thus it could make my life easier. And the fact, it's not.well, I'm putting in the /etc/fstab file to be like this;
Code:
# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
#
# Use 'blkid -o value -s UUID' to print the universally unique identifier
# for a device; this may be used with UUID= as a more robust way to name
# devices that works even if disks are added and removed. See fstab(5).
[code]....
in a conclusion; every file i copy, move, to that mounted directory will fail. and the error given is that Input/Output error message only.Is it this effect, due to the script i put on fstab is wrongly?

I've got a Ubuntu 10.04 Server edition installed as a VMWare ESXi VM. It's been working great for about 6 months. This morning, after not making any changes, I started seeing some errors. First problem was that my website (managed by apache2) was offline. SSH/ftp didn't work either. So I go through the console through vSphere. Tried a quick ifconfig, and I got this:
Code:
bash: /sbin/ifconfig: No such file or directory
mmk. Tried ls /sbin/ifconfig, got this:
Code:
bash: /bin/ls: No such file or directory
[Code].....
Commands known to work: dir, vi, dmesg, rmdir, mkdir, ifup (but it then returns ifconfig not found), shutdown, reboot, fsck (but I chose no to prevent damage) Commands known NOT to work: ifconfig, ps, ls
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.
I'm trying to jail a sftp user. All I want is for my daughter-in-law to be able to download pictures of my grandson on his step-uncle's motorcycle. But I don't want her browsing around. She's not a techie, but she's smart enough to catch on how WinSCP is looking at my files. I've set up the jail using jk_init, adding ssh, sftp, bash, netutils, basicshell, jk_lsh.
The physical root of the jail is owned by root, as are all the binaries loaded by the jk_init. The user's home directory is owned recursively by the user and is writable only by the owner. The passwd and group files are in the jailed /etc and populated by the user's lines. Shell is bash, and bash is there too. The error message must be coming from some other problem that's not notifying, but what?
I'm using VSFTP in my ubuntu server and I want FTP to show me only the /var/www directory and its files/sub-directories. How can I do this? This has to do with vsftp.conf?Also I've read is recommended to make a user only for FTP, thus limiting its access to the desired directory. How can I do such thing?

I'm configuring Apache for the first time on this box (8.04 LTS) and Apache2 for the first time ever. "Out of the box" it runs fine and I get the "It Works" page okay. But I'd like to use the virtual site feature to direct Apache to a folder in my user space, and I keep getting errors.
When I point a browser at localhost, the 404 message is "The requested URL / was not found on this server." and the /var/log/apache2/error.log ends with "File does not exist: /htdocs.
Here's my config file from the apache2/sites-available folder:

I diff'ed this file with the default and the only differences are in the DocumentRoot line and the <Directory ...> line.
My public_html folder has permissions 755 and the index.html file is 644.
I just installed ubuntu 10.04 on a pc... the server edition. i went to restart samba and it is not in the init.d directory. is there a different folder for server plateforms? cause im use to my 9.10 desktop edition.
also one more question, when i "ls" the /ect/ directory of course i cant see the whole thing because my monitor only shows the bottom of the file, is there a way to list it like the "more" commands, or possibly scroll up?
i'm having issues with a folder which I cannot write to or seem to do anything else with? i figured i'd delete it and start again but i can't even do that!!

View 2 Replies View RelatedI installed AWSTATS on my LAMP 10.04 LTS and followed several tutorials URL...) but I can't secure the folder, either by an alias or by .htaccess. I tried both methods manually and by using Webmin.If you go to the URL www.mywebsite/awstats/awstats.pl it shows up, which is good, but this is the default installation site and anyone who knows awstats could possibly see my stats. The conf folder is /etc/awstats/, and I did an alias for that, then .htacess, but neither worked. With the .htaccess, I would get a password promt but the full stats page was visible behind the password promt, and if you clicked "Cancel" about 20 times or so the promt would go away and the full stats page would be visible.
The actual file that powers awstats is in /usr/share/lib/cgi-bin/awstats.pl, and I also tried an Alias and .htaccess seperately and neither worked.I restarted apache2 after each change and I've searched several forums, but I still can't figure this out.
Using apt-get can I install java and tomcat into specific directories, instead of the default way apt would do it?

View 2 Replies View RelatedMy brother and I currently use a shared server, we both connect via SSH. I store files (via SFTP) on it as I only normally use a laptop. He uses to host his own personal files and also a public website promoting his photography business. I am interested in cryptography and security and have restricted our SSH connections to require keys and use encfs to encrypt my personal folder. Comments on this are welcome.
I am struggling to work out how to protect his home folder without preventing access to his site. Normal methods prevent access entirely or require the web browser to enter a password (no good for promotion). I would like to prevent both alien users and myself from accessing his home folder but still allow his website to be functional from within this area of restricted access. Both the site and his personal files need to be protected.
I have newly installed Ubuntu server 9.10 in my server machine.And it has tomcat6 in itself.My friend have built a Java software in Fedora ,and he wants to move it to the new server.But problem is the directory structure is different between two systems.He has to either change his directory setting in his software or change the default tomcat6 ROOT directory. But I have not find any configuration file can do this job(change the tomcat default ROOT directory ).

I would like to upload files via ftp or sftp to my web directory at /var/www/...
Originally I had installed openssh-server (through apt-get, before learning about tasksel). I assumed this only had ssh support and not ftp, so after a quick search, I installed vsftpd. I would like to learn how to configure openssh, and I mention vsftpd in case there is a conflict.
Right now I am able to log in to my server box through ssh/ftp, but I can only modify my home directory. I created a directory: /var/www/andrew and set permissions to drwxr-xr-x. I am unable to upload files to this folder.
What do I have to do to resolve this, and is there anything else I should know about my situation?
Is it possible to increase the size of the root directory / on ubuntu 9.10?
