similar to: Restoring from backup, preserving uids

I've written a function that regularly throws the "cannot allocate vector of size X Kb" error, since it contains a loop that creates large numbers of big distance matrices. I'd be very grateful for any simple advice on how to reduce the memory demands of my function. Besides increasing memory.size to the maximum available, I've tried reducing my "dist" objects to 3

Is there some way that message uids can be preserved when converting uw-pop3 mbox mail to dovecot maildir format? We've tried perfect_maildir, mb2md and the convert-tool that comes with dovecot but so far have been unable to preserve the message uids, which for example go from 44333a8500000003 before the conversion to 4434621500000003 afterwards. The quantity of mailboxes involved means

Hello, I'm fitting general linear models using the function lme() from the package nlme. My variables include a number of covariates and a single random factor, because the experiment was laid out in blocks. I'd like to have a statistic to measure the "proportion of explained variance" from my models. With ordinary multiple regression I'd use R-squared, but I can't

I'm looking for an R function that simply recodes a quantitative variable into a number of classes according to specified break-points. Obviously I can do this using nested ifelse() commands, but I want to write it into a function where I can't pre-specify the number of classes. Is there an obvious way to do this? An example to clarify: how to convert c(0,10,5,1,9,6) to

I backed up all the user files on machine using rsync, and I have a directory on my backup machine that looks like: 0 drwxr-xr-x 26 1017 1018 884 Nov 20 08:03 bea 0 drwxr-xr-x 25 1039 1040 850 Aug 21 03:58 charles 0 drwxr-xr-x 10 1033 1034 340 Mar 1 2004 deliv 0 drwxr-xr-x 11 1034 1035 374 Mar 12 2004 dlucas 0 drwxr-xr-x 31 1012 1013 1054 Nov 5 08:28

Hello all, I'm facing the need to migrate from a proprietary IMAP server to Dovecot. The migration must be as smooth and transparent as possible. The mailbox format I would want to use is Maildir++. The storage format used by the current server is unknown, and I don't look forward to trying to reverse-engineer it. This leaves me with the option of reading the mailboxes using IMAP.

I might be missing obvious here, but here goes: Samba 2.2.4. Using "winbind use default domain = <DOMAIN>" option usernames map correctly, however, when logging on from an W2K machine I still get the autogenerated UID instead of my NIS (Or /etc/passwd) UID. Both nis and files precede winbind in /etc/nsswitch.conf Commenting out winbind from /etc/nsswitch.conf works, which

Hello, When I open a text file on a Samba fileserver using LDAP for authentication, Samba always makes these LDAP calls (see below). The user has been authenticated so why does Samba still makes these LDAP connections? Any ideas? /var/log/ldap.log when opening a text file. ldap-hh slapd[22940]: conn=3922 op=19 SRCH base="o=kuleuven,c=be" scope=2 filter="(uid=m2000944)"

I noticed that rsync can preserve most of the file's characteristics when it is used with "-a" option (it includes -o and -g flags for preserving owners and groups). However, when I transfer data between systems, it affects my UIDs/GIDs, making the data hard to recover. Example: Sending side: /etc/passwd: mark:x:503:503::/home/mark:/bin/bash file: -rw-rw-r-- 1 mark mark

Is there a way to backup files to a remote machine on which I don't have root permission, while preserving their uids/gids? I know that only the super-user can set the owner and group of a file, so what I am actually looking for is a tool that would store the actual uids/gids of all files that are backuped by rsync in a kind of meta-file. This file could then be used to restore the files

Hi We recenlty ugraded to openssh-3.7.1p2. Our architecture is ssh daemon uses pam module which sends request to remote radius/tacacs+ servers based on configuration. Now if I create the user in /etc/passwd, then ssh daemon calls pam and everthing works fine. But if the user is not present in /etc/passwd, then ssh daemon is not calling pam. The debug log is given below. All these

Hi, I am attempting to get dovecot up and running on FreeBSD 4.9..... Tried with the default config file and my own one (below) but when trying to login I get the following: Feb 10 17:59:53 cobain dovecot-auth: passwd(jamie): invalid password field '*' It seems like it is trying to read straight from /etc/passwd? I thought it called getpw(). Is this a common error and could anyone shed

First, yes, I have read the piece on chroot.... Trying to get an AIX (5.3) to run rsync 2.6.2 as a daemon I have tried every possibly usage to stop chroot, used no and false, as on the web it has showed up as either. Also dropped flag --numeric-ids when running.... Here is my test config--- # Simple test config file log file = /tmp/rsync.log [test] use chroot = no path = /tmp/rsync_test/

Hi, does anyone know if aide should have access to this socket? SELinux is preventing /usr/sbin/aide from write access on the sock_file /var/run/winbindd/pipe. Thanks Patrick (on CentOS6 if that matters)

Hi everyone, I have a question concerning UIDs. How persistant are they? I am thinking about building some form of webmail specialized for some specific business purpose and I am thinking of building a sort of cache in a DB by storing the email addr, date, subject and UID for quick lookups and search of correspondance. I am doing this because I am having issue with multiple people searching

hi all. how does samba create its uids and gids from the windows domain? and what can i do to prevent it 'dropping' these mappings? i've set up windows 2003 sfu to allow samba to map to the uid stored in active directory (by using sfu nis), is this the safest way to ensure folder permissions remain constant or am i being unnecessarily scared? :-) thanks for any tips john
