I mount this share on a client: [users] comment = home folders inherit acls = Yes inherit permissions = Yes path = /home read only = No using this as root on the client: mount -t cifs //192.168.1.2/users /home -o rw,nosetuid I then login as a user on the client authenticated via ldap. No problem. It takes me to the mounted folder and I can see my files. When I

FreeBSD 6.1-RELEASE-p8 postfix-current-2.4.20060903,3 dovecot-1.0.r7 I am experiencing a problem with dovecot as an LDA. It will not deliver mail unless the mail directory is chmod'd to 1777. Below is an example of the log file output. The dovecot.log file had over a hundred entries similar to this: deliver(gerard): Error: open(/var/mail/.temp.scorpio.seibercom.net.1123.cd38cd4d82e1368f)

Hi, all. I'm new to rsync so please bear with me... I'm trying to back-up to a remote host (rsync locally works fine) & keep getting the below error messages. If I mount the remote host on my OS X box (I'm attempting to back-up my Debian boxes) the operation flows smoothly. I've upgraded my rsync version to the same as the remote host, chmod'd the permissions on the

Perhaps I missed a permission change on the shared directory? It's supposed to be set to 0770, correct? I created the directory from root - can't recall what the permissions where or if I chmod'd it. Would a goof on that result in the inability to set permissions when using the windows administrator account. Basically the behavior I'm seeing? On 2019-02-18 3:36 am, Viktor

I've priced some 1 and 2U Dell servers. Now, I'd like to perform a price comparison of COTS hardware for 1 and 2U servers. What VAR companies do people recommend I check out for putting machines together? I'm perfectly capable of installing and swapping hardware components when/where needed, so on-sight support is not needed. Thanks much. Scott

I received some interesting answers to my cron question. Most people said it was not possible. One person reviewed cron's source code and said the source would need to be modified. One person said I should mount the filesystem with noexec. I'll review and test the answers as best I can. To answer several people's curiosities of why I keep pushing - when I'm tasked with a

In an attempt to install bugzilla on a 64-bit C5 system, following http://www.nabble.com/bugzilla-3.0.x-installation-on-FC7-t4656333.html Most all modules from that page install fine, but GD install attemps keep crashing. What am I missing? Thanks. Scott

Is it possible to prevent cron from executing something in a world-readable directory, or a directory branching off a world-readable directory? Thanks. Scott

A user wants to time a command/program/application and ensure the full contents of that command's data management has been flushed from RAM/cache and saved to disk. Is there a way to ensure the cache/RAM is flushed to disk, or is the flushing a function of the kernel or the application? This happens to be on a 64-bit Intel system with 64-bit CentOS 5, fully patched. But even if the

I want to keep track of how long a task is running. Thinking it wouldn't take that long, I opted not to run time before it. The fact that it is taking a long time, if I revisit the machine in the morning, what would be the best way to find out what time it ended? In this case, I'm using mt to erase an lto3 tape - sudo mt -f /dev/st0 erase. But I'd like to use the knowledge from

So I want to see if there is a way to restrict crontab from running an executable or anything else from a world-writable directory, or subdirectory thereof. Thanks. Scott

I have an out-of-box, unpatched RedHat Enterprise 5 server acting as a samba PDC for a handful of Windows XP systems on a domain. This is on an isolated network - no Internet connectivity. Is there a way to configure the samba server to act as a Windows SUS server for patch pushing? If so, specifically, how? If not, other than manually installing patches on systems or buying a Windows

OK. Everything is going great for 4 years on my FC3 Samba Version 3.0.3-5. Now all of a sudden, when someone opens a Word/Excel file on a Samba share, it changes the user Owner to that user as well as modifies the permissions to r-x and leaves the group/permission bits/owner setting alone. I have the root directories for all shares with the u and g sticky bits set on, but it is not enforcing

I am using rsync and crontab to perform scheduled backups on FreeBSD AMD64 Rel. 7.0 I am following process described here for rsync : http://samba.anu.edu.au/rsync/examples.html I have a backup script's created for daily, weekly, monthly. This is one example - the daily (/backup is a seperate physical drive) : #daily backup script rsync -a --delete /usr/home/data/Access/

Found it. It happens from the process buffer inside Lugaru Epsilon. I think ls thinks it's doing a DIRED output instead of a shell output. Now I need to figure out why it thinks that. This wasn't happening in CentOS 7.

I pulled the coreutils SRPM and it won't build because it wants texinfo and dnf says it doesn't exist, using either the builddep or search subcommands. (There may be other builddep
