Ubuntu :: Tmp Or Temp Assigned Elsewhere?
Oct 1, 2010is it possible to have the tmp or temp folders assigned elsewhere. I am actually looking to stick them in the shm folder since there is enough memory to throw around the place ..

View 1 RepliesI have a web server whos DocumentRoot is:/tmp/wwwNow, /temp/www/fake/ is a directory that contains a series of other files/folders.What I want to do is access the files in /temp/www/fake as if they were in the root directory (/temp/www/)For example:
could either be located in "/temp/www/test.php"
-or-
located in "/temp/www/fake/test.php"
so "http://127.0.0.1/test.php" would essentially call both directories. Is this possible? Whould I do this through apache or through the actual file system somehow? (Like some sort of symbolic link?) I would love to hear your input.
I've been working on this for a couple days, but I cannot seem to find a solution either on my own or through trusty Google. For whatever reason, I cannot get the Super key assigned to the Left Win as I have had it in the past. There does not seem to be an option to do that in the Keyboard layout thingy.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI've been having a problem getting a couple of services started at boot on my home server. I want to have my Openvpn daemon and a holdingnuts poker server start at boot. Neither of these start properly if placed at level S99 in the rc2 folder. Looking through the logs, it seems that the network is not up and running at this time. To confirm this, I placed the following in my rc.local file that runs at level S99.
Code:
ifconfig | cat > /home/username/network-status.txt
My ifconfig file shows the lo, eth0 and my bridged br0 interfaces. However, the br0 interface does not show an IP, netmask or anything else, indicating that it hasn't been brought up, yet. So this begs the question, if you have a static ip set (with a bridged connection for the VPN server), when does that actually get up and running? I would have thought that it should be up by the time that the last startup scripts are running. How can I ensure that these things run at startup, but not until the network is fully up and running?
On windows I installed the iscsi initiator which tells me my pc id. Then I take that id and put it in my storage which automatically gives me my extra disk. How can I find out the id assigned to my ubuntu pc?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm running Ubuntu Server 10.10 on a 64 bit laptop (also have GNOME installed just for convenience), and have a website up using apache2. I am wondering if it is possible to configure both eth0 and wlan0 to the same local static IP address? I would like to walk around my house and do stuff when I want and still have the website accessible, but also be able to jack my laptop back into the router when I am away, just for peace of mind.
Is this possible? If it is, do I need to do some configuring in apache2 to tell it to use another device? Is this even a smart way to get what I want done?
i wanted to make some ftp users that will be hooked to directory and wont be able to move backward and to see the system files
ex

so he cant get to /home/Eyal
but he can go to /home/Eyal/Eyal/cstrike
i've recently been required to monitor my cpu's temp. for one, i have no idea how to do so, and for another i'd like to do so by continually seeing the temperature displayed on the top menu bar, similarly to how you can setup graphs displaying your cpu use, memory, etc.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a server hosted with Hetzner in Germany and have had it there for over a year now without any glitches. Last week very abruptly they deactivated the server giving me a very vague reason of "I was using another IP that was not assigned to me". After several calls I had the server reactivated but am still puzzled by this and Hetzner Germany has been unable to provide me with any proof, logs, traces or anything for that matter to validate their claims.
My primary (physical) server has one IP allocated (static) and IPv6 is turned off. On top of this server I run 3 VMware servers, 1 Ubuntu, 1 Debian, 1 Windows and all 3 of these VM's have static IP's configured.
I've done traceroutes, netstats and looked through every single config file with a fine toothcomb without finding anything and the problem has not reoccured either.
What I would like to know is if there is some way that someone could craft an attack of some sort that could cause a server to do this, to latch onto another IP not assigned to its NIC?
I am trying to create a file, that has a variable assigned to it, in another directory. For some reason when I run the script it creates the file only in my pwd and I cannot for the life of me figure out why.My pwd at the moment is Desktop but it does not matter as I have tried from elsewhere. I have tried the touch command in the following ways (some will be obviously incorrect but I was desperate)and many more as well as the original format listed.

localhost:10000 uses an invalid security certificate. The certificate is not trusted because it is self signed. (Error code: sec_error_untrusted_issuer).
Never had this problem with Ubuntu 8.04.
I have no idea where the firefox temp files are being downloaded to, but I would like to change the directory to a folder in my home directory.
View 4 Replies View RelatedIs it possible to read the host cpu's temperature from a virtual guest?
(1) Where host = ubuntu desktop and guest = ubuntu server, and
(2) Where host = windows xp and guest = ubuntu server?
Typically I would read the contents of /proc/acpi/thermal_zone/THRM/temperature on host ubuntu desktop. I guess its more tricky when running ubuntu on windows host. What I am trying to do is shutdown guest if host cpu temperature is greater than certain value.
Any good ideas for a GUI program that monitors temp for CPU and hard drive? I'd prefer one that is like a system monitor that can show trends on a graph (like CPU usage, etc). It is irritating that you can't even add a silly app to the panel because UNE is locked (ERR, Ubuntu, what were you thinking? Give US the choice! Rant over) So far, I have just written a quick script after installing lm-sensors and hddtemp and run the necessary setup routines that will show me, but I would like some of the history data.
Code:
#! /bin/bash
# zenity --info --title "Temp INFO" --text "sensors"
The new splash screen would fly by in two shakes without, the dots moving left to right.And I was looking at more blackness than purple. So what I did was this without installing a slower uvesa v86d update. I used that as a reference point instead. This is what me Grub2 looks like: /etc/default/grub
Code:
GRUB_DEFAULT=2
GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=0
GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT_QUIET=true
GRUB_TIMEOUT=10

In Karmic, where is the temporary file stored of a video like ..... after it is played?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am using ubuntu karmic kola 9.10. The problem I have been having lately is of overheating of my intel core2duo proc, where the temp reaches around 80-90 degrees and the cpu shuts down after a while and the message from the bios is of thermal trip. Ideally my cpus temp is around 55 deg,the moment when the temp starts to climb and when I run a top command, I see arpwatch taking 100 % of cpu. After googling I came across this.
Code:
[URL]. How can a process which is taking 100 % cpu cause a system to over heat and shutdown in few mins? I have had seen instances where processes taking a lot of cpu but not something like this.

I have been issued 16 IP's my my ISP. Obviously my subnet is 240. is there a way I can take one or any of those IP's and somehow make them into their own network on my end? Really what I am wanting to do is take my 2 DNS servers that are really on the same network far as my assigned subnet and IP's, but take at least one of those IP's and sub-network? it out to the other DNS so it appears to be on another net work. like just simply assign it 192.168.219 255.255.255.255 or something like that.
View 10 Replies View RelatedI'm having some really odd problems with Nautilus. The main one is that most of the time, files of various types are not assigned to be opened with the proper app, and I cannot assign an app. I described this problem in another thread: If I right click a .pdf for example, and select "Open With," the first two suggestions (Leafpad and gedit) are wrong. If I choose instead "Open with another program," I get a dialog with two tabs. One is "Recommended Applications" and is blank. The other is "All Applications." If I click "All Applications," instead of getting a list of apps or having the opportunity to choose one from /usr/bin, the entire dialog disappears abruptly. I'd say that's a "crash."

I just bought a new mouse - just a cheapie usb wheel mouse but it has an extra 'thumb' button which I thought I might as well set up to do something useful. I used 'xev' to determine the numbers that the OS had assigned to the buttons, and I found it wasn't quite what I was expecting:
left = 1
wheel-as-button = 2
right = 3
wheel-up = 4
wheel-down = 5
thumb = 8
I thought the right button would be '2' and the 'wheel-as-button' would be 3 - that's just how I've always seen them referred to in explanations, and I thought it was standardised. Not a big deal - the context menus still pop up when I click the right button so it all works ok. (And I just discovered the wheel-as-button does a 'paste' operation when it's clicked. Weird - I've never noticed that before...) But the thing that I find particularly odd: why is the thumb button assigned as '8'. What happened to '6' and '7'? Does the operating system assign these numbers, or are they built into the hardware in the mouse itself? Again, no big deal, I know I can remap the buttons if I need to, but I was just curious as to how this all works and google didn't help.
So I mounted an ISO of MEPIS 11 in /mnt/temp, having understood that I can access the files. Well, no, I can't--not really. Almost all the files in the distro are part of the 1.2 GB "mepis" file that comprises the bulk of what's in the iso. I thought I would be able to look inside the distro's guts if I mounted the iso, which would probably have been helpful in explaining why my remastered copies of the ISO weren't any smaller even after I removed a large amount of the applications. (I wanted to modify MEPIS 11 to make it fit onto a CD.) If I can't do this, what is the practical use of mounting the iso and looking at the files?
