Hello, I've got a CentOS box and users are putting Windows long files on it, files with " " and " - " in their filenames. I'm trying to adjust the permissions as well as user and group membership and i'd like the changes to be sticky. On the tld i've set permissions of 2755 and am trying to batch convert the files and subfolders in it. I've done this: find

I thought this worked. Many web pages tell you it works. But bash is ignoring tabs in my here docs. Worst, where there are two tabs, it is functioning as a command expand in bash, where all files in the current directory are listed to complete the command. The following is the here doc I am using. Most likely the tabs will be converted to spaces in this email. But the bottom line is,

I have performed the 5.1 update via the 5 repo on a couple of systems. I then went to switch these systems to my new local repo using ther $releasever variable. It still has the value of 5, not 5.1 Where is this set? Why was it not changed to 5.1? On the one clean install from the 5.1 isos, $releasever is at 5.1 I think.

I have an Access application that work with some shared database file. The file is ~ 3 Mb. Since I have a Linux system with Samba, this application work very slow. I have multiple user with win95 on this file. Is there an option for allowing multiple access without cache ? any other idea ? Thanks. ___________________________________________________________ S?bastien HEITZMANN

I installed inotify and incrond to watch a directory and set the job as '/mnt/dir IN_ATTRIB chmod 0660 $@/$#' which worked very well except that as expected, IN_ATTRIB is to broad of a watch class as it caused an enormous amount of contention with the filemonitor and/or db server and the client side app was less than happy. Not to mention top showed it working away like mad... Is there

Same with file permission with mount, umount, su, and ping6. Thank you very much. Get your new Email address! Grab the Email name you've always wanted before someone else

Hi all. This looks like a common question. I want to backup a dir, in which i put some symlinks, so it looks like machinegun:/tmp/daily_backup # ls -la total 8 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 2010-02-17 17:41 . drwxrwxrwt 19 root root 4096 2010-02-17 17:30 .. lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 16 2010-02-17 17:41 cgi-bin -> /srv/www/cgi-bin lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 2010-02-17 17:17 etc -> /etc

I am looking at options for VPN connections from iPhones and iPod Touches to CentOS systems. We use OpenVPN for connections with Windows, Mac OS X, and other Linux systems, but there don't appear to be any OpenVPN clients for iPhones (presumably because there are no tun/tap interfaces available yet). My experiences getting IPsec running on CentOS systems with OpenVPN have not been pretty.

My Centos 5.2 box shuts itself down during a long tar -x. There is plenty of disk available. This is new; it worked in the past. Any suggestions? Thanks, Mike.

Hi, This might be a little O.t. so private responses please. I've got apache and samba running on a CentOS5 box enabling windows users to add web content. My issue is i've had to restore some backup data that was previously archived. The permissions aren't matching up so i'm wanting to use find and xargs to change them appropriately. Normally i do: find . -type type

Over the weekend my workstation (still on CentOS 3) started showing SMART errors, so we shut it down and moved everything onto a new drive. On reboot, the RPM database reports as corrupted and "rpm --rebuilddb" segmentation faults. Is there any reasonable way to recover from this, short of a complete reinstall? The machine is otherwise up though it''s quite likely some files

Is there a way to have rsync not treat files that have gone missing (e.g. Maildir messages that have been removed) as errors while indicating I/O errors and such?

I am attempting to use libvirtd/kvm on CentOS 5.latest to migrate a SCO OpenServer 5.0.6a VM from the old VMware server. I have converted the multiple vmdk disk files to a single file, then used qemu-img convert to create files for libvirtd, both qcow2 and raw formats. After many attempts to get this working I'm up against what appears to be a brick wall. + The VMware VMs are using

Anyone seen this before? I have a number of file systems nfs mounted onto clients running various versions of CentOS (and Upstream), although mostly they are v5.x flavors. =20 The server is a Network Appliance filer. When the build process for this team runs, it sometimes dies because it can't find files in the automounter tree; if the engineer checks, he sometimes sees a problem, and

Greetings, Well, I en devoured to install a copy of 7 as an effort to upgrade one of our servers. After installing a few ports, I began to notice: [: -le: argument expected messages being emitted during the configure/make process. I've already invested a fair amount of time on this upgrade, and /really/ don't want to wipe the disk(s) and start all over. This issue is not new to me - see

I have a directory shared out via Samba for Quickbooks and seem to have some issues with permissions. The directory being shared is a subdirectory in an ext3 partition being mounted with the acl option. It has been setup as follows: chown root:DOMAIN\AD_Group /mnt/Intuit_Data/ chmod 2770 /mnt/Intuit_Data/ And the Samba share config is has: create mask = 0660 directory mask =
