similar to: scp with tty

Has anyone else had problems using the --link-dest flag? I do what it says in the example rsync -a --delete --link-dest=/home/chamberl/oldbk/ /home/chamberl/source/ /home/chamberl/backup/ I make sure that /home/chamberl/source has some files exactly the same as in /home/chamberl/oldbk/ but evertything gets copiued, and no hard links are done (though they should be). Anyone know the problem?

I am looking for something similar to the windows SEARCH FILES comman with the option "files containing ..." (that is where I can specify a string and it will find all files containing that string -- not just having the string as part of the name but actually containing it in the text). Is there some way to do this?

I found the response below today online to a question I had. For some reason I never got the mail. I am not quite clear on what "DHCP + DFG + 2DNS entries" means when calculating the IP to set for the router: Thanks Re: [CentOS] Yum/WGET/HTTP sourceforge etc. new April 12, 2010 08:10AM On Sun, 2010-04-11 at 22:57 +0000, tony.chamberlain at lemko.com wrote: > Here is what I

Hi openssh developers, I'm trying to port openssh to Interix. See [1] for more on this. For Interix sshd needs to be patched to not use setuid()/setgid(), but an Interix specific function setuser(). See [2] why it is needed. Unfortunately, setuser() needs the clear-text password of the user to be fully functional (If you use password-less setuser(), then the user doesn't have network

Hi I got rsnapshot working, but I am still unclear about a few things. Say I have intervals daily 7 weekly 4 monthly 12 so running "rsnapshot daily" for seven days will create files daily.0, daily.1, daily.2, daily3, daily.4, daily.5, daily.6 If at the end of the week I do "rsnapshot weekly", then daily.6 gets moved to weekly.0 The next time daily runs, 5 will move to 6,

I have a shell script, /usr/bin/joevpn, which does a quick VPN connect. Basically (HOST and DOFIL are defined above and are correct. I just did not list them here) case "$1" in start) date > $DOFIL while [ -f $DOFIL ] do echo y | /usr/local/bin/vpnclient connect $HOST sleep 10 done ;; #

Another question about find. I looked at the gnome tool and tried to simulate what it is doing. I can't use it directly because it won't do sed. Basically I want to find all files with a string (except binary) and change it. let STR be the string I am looking for. NEW is new string. I am doing TFIL=/usr/tmp/dummy$$.txt find . -type f | while read fil do grep "$STR"

I am currently running CentOS 4.5 (which, through many Yum updates) now appears to be CentOD 4.8. 4.8 is still rather old, but I havbe lots of stuff (files and stuff installed). I would like to install Fedora but I am worried about losing all the stuff I have. I would have to back everything up, uninstall/reinstall things, etc. I am wondering whether there is some way to upgrade to Fedora from

I made a file partition-ks.cfg and put it in our machine 192.168.5.17 under /var/www/html. When I install a new machine I just do a linux ks=http://192.168.5.17/partition-ks.cfg I have a couple questions though: 1) I have the following in it: clearpart --all part /boot --fstype ext3 --size=100 part /var --fstype ext3 --size=10000 part / --fstype ext3 --size=10000

Not sure if there is a DHCPD/PXE forum so I will ask here. I have been trying to get netboot to work (i.e. a machine with nothing on it but a NIC card, no linux, no operating system, whatever) boots up and receives a file from a dhcp server. This dhcp server gives it all the Linux stuff it needs so a full install can be done over the network. I actually got this working by turning my desktop

I am looking for the optimal VPN. Well it doens't have to be that elaborate. Just the best VPN. We currently have some customers using PPTP, some using openvpn, some using Cisco Any Connect and there are a few others. So my question is, if you have control of both ends (client and server) what is the best VPN to use? There are not too many requirements, but a big one is The VPN must return

Thanks for the responses. I think this is what I want to do. I commented out #Defaults requiretty in /etc/sudo. But what I really wanted to do was just place it in VPNUSERS: %vpnusers ALL=NOPASSWD: /sbin/service myciscovpn start, \ /sbin/service myciscovpn stop, \ /sbin/service myciscovpn status, \ /usr/bin/mycisco,

I am having a problem with 5.4 that I did not have with 4.5. The problem happens only sometimes but in specific instances. Basically a summary of the problem is that certain network transactions timeout. The specfic instances are with wget, rpm, http. The problem usually, but not always, occurs with pptp stuff. (NOT running pptp but getting pptp stuff). For instance, the following command, which

A while ago I sent mail about wanting to find all files that had a certain text string in it and changing it to something else. People mentioned that there is a system tool to do it (gnome has it too). I ran this, for example to find all files WITH "prog" in the name, and then I did a ps and I saw simply find . -iname '*prog*' then I did something similar, all file names

A long-time missing feature (or bug, depending on how you look at it) is that a Ctrl-C at the password prompt in scp does not restore the terminal settings, thus dropping you to the command prompt without any keyboard echo. (A "reset" command will fix it.) This is a pretty regular occurance for me, and some others I've talked to - usually when you realize that the scp command you

Hallo, I wanted to avoid typing-in my password every occasion I remotely logged-on to a server. I created my SSH keys and copied the public part to the server and renamed it authorized_keys. My command line is: ssh root at xxxxxx.com -p 1234 The output shows the logging-on routine wants 3 types of authentication. Surely one successful authentication is sufficient ?

Hello I am trying to sync via NTP locally (since I have no Internet access). None of the NTP stuff I read on the net seems to work right. I mean it works fine setting up a client going to something like 0.pool.ntp.org but when I want to make my LInux box a server, and I do an ntpdate to it from another machine, it says no suitable server found. I have tried every possible combination of

Yep, sorry, we ran out of space on the instance's database volume. I'll update this once we're back up.

I've got a Cento 6.2 server I'm putting together that will become a mailserver. It will have on it MailScanner and MailWatch for MailScanner. I'm using the latest stuff available and have run into a problem with changes I need to make in the /etc/sudoers file. It doesn't seem to take affect after I make the changes, so either the syntax within the file has changed or the way
