I'm a newb to linux so please be patient. Running CentOS 4. Using Bash. I'm not sure what happened, but now for some reason /sbin, /usr/sbin, and /usr/local/sbin are all missing from the path. I am su'd as root. I've tried several different methods to put this back including: PATH="/usr/kerberos/bin:/usr/local/bin:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/hom

Hi All, When I use smbmount to attach a NT 4 Server's drive C:, I use the following command: smbmount //inet_server_1/C$ /mnt/server1 -o username=xxxxxx,password=xxxxxx,fmask=700,dmask=700,nosuid,noexec now, if I am su'd to root, and do a df -h I get: Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/hda1 6.7G 2.5G 3.8G 39% / //inet_server_1/C$ 7.8G 3.2G

After successfully building R on Slackware Linux v11.0 I went to make the documentation; the texi files went fine and then I hopefully issued make dvi after having gotten the warning to the effect of "You cannot build the DVI or PDF manuals" during compilation. And, as expected I got the error ERROR: 'latex' needed but missing on your system. The problem is that latex is on

Hi, I tried to run an older windows program under wine (I think it is an older 16bit Borland C compiled binary - the icons looks have the typically Borland look) for connecting my telephone system via a serial connection (Auerswald ETS2106W.EXE). The program iteself starts but it tells me every time that it gets no connection with COM2. To verify that the serial connection is ok I a have

Greetings All- I'm about to embark on some remote management testing and need a way to login to a remote system running CentOS 4.x/5.x via SSH, su to root (using a password), then execute a command. I currently login to the boxes using key based SSH like this: ssh -i ~/remote_key admin@$REMOTEIP Then, I SU to root. However, if I try to do this automatically like this: ssh -i ~/remote_key

Hi all. OpenSSH_4.1p1, OpenSSL 0.9.7g 11 Apr 2005 on Solaris 8 using host-based authentication. With "PrivilegeSeparation yes" and "UsePAM no" everything works as desired. If I enable PAM, I am able to connect, but just before it gives me a shell, it disconnects. If I leave PAM enabled and disable PrivilegeSeparation, it works. Is this a current limitation, or is there

Hi all, I just wanted to temporarily make some new CMS I set up available to the public for testing on port 8080 of our web server forwarded via ssh to to my local, firewalled workstation: ssh me at some-host.tld -R 8080:localhost:80 However I had to notice that this only binds to the loopback interface and not to all. For -L there is the -g option to low connects to locally forwarded ports

Hi all, I'm new on this list, I tried to find the solution or ideas about my doubt but I didn't know what look for. I was thinking to develope a system that is a "Basic Administration" of a Linux Server, the "idea" is: an application in Java running on a worksation, to consult how much space has on disk of server, the application send a command to the server using

I've written an implementation of Markdown in C, for people like me who shout BAH! and wave their canes at modern programming languages.

It Lives! I dl'd the current contents of: pserver.samba.org/pub/unpacked/samba_3_0/source ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/snapshots/i386 Upgraded my obsd34 box; Samba compiled, loaded, joined the Domain, and testparm'd okay. I don't know if the problem was the samba source or OpenBSD's code. Don't really care, as long as it's up. Here's my configure mods...I put it in

Hi, In a machine that I regularly use one console and remotely I have the line: eval `ssh-agent` In my .login, as per the ssh-agent(1) man page. Problem: when I log out, the ssh-agent process persists which is the correct behavior in some cases, but not in others. This means that periodically I have to kill off hundreds of ssh-agent processes as they are taking up a substantial amount of my

Hi! I've noticed that openssh always does a do_setpag() if compiled with AFS-support no matter which authentication method is used. Maybe I'm missing something but shouldn't it only get a pag, if AFS-token-passing is used? If password authentication is used, an AFS-pam-module (or the authenticate function on AIX) will do the job, otherwise, no token can be obtained and therefore no

Hi all. I have been reading the list archives and can't seem to find anything that relates to these errors. BackupPC_nightly fails to delete any files, and reports the pool and cpool at zero size. The nightly run as currently configured should be deleting a ton of files (only one hardlink) but it deletes nothing, and so the drive is now 100% and staying there. I have adjusted the conf

At work I'm used to tools like eTrust Access Control (aka SEOS). eTrust takes away the ability to manage the eTrust config from root and puts it in the hands of "security admin". So there's a good separation of duties; security admin control the security ruleset, but are limited by the OS permissions (so even if they granted themselves permission to modify /etc/shadow, the

machine O is outside firewall, machine I is inside (machine names changed to protect the innocent :-) firewall allows ssh connections if inititiated from I to O, but not if the other way. both machines have an /etc/rsyncd.conf of: [rt] path = /tmp/rsync_test comment = Test area O runs rsync daemon, I initiates a rsync cammnad like rsync -rvvv --delete --rsh=ssh O::rt /tmp/rsync_test

Hello Darren, The major problem we are running into is that the shell (both sh and ksh) does not kill its child processes when there is no pty. The SSH patch mentioned previously at http://bugzilla.mindrot.org/show_bug.cgi?id=396 is not sufficient to kill the forced command completely.It will only kill the shell script, but not any child processes the shell script runs. The shell assumes the

Since Centos 4.3 comes with Thunderbird 1.0.8, I downloaded the tar of 1.5.0.4 fro mozilla and tried to figure out what to do with it. per http://www.mozilla.com/thunderbird/releases/1.5.0.4.html#install I was just suppose to copy the files.... In the end I put it in /usr/lib/thunderbird I am NOT a Linux guy so could not figure out how to properly replace /usr/lib/thunderbird-1.0.8 and
