similar to: rsync, excluding files w/certain characteristics

hey.. I talked to my sysadmins about getting access to the dtrace_kernel role, and they said they were hesitant to give this out because they thought it was a security risk - ie: that you could use it for privilege escalation. How true is this? Is there a way to make it user safe? If not, why is it offered as an option for regular users? Thanks much, Ed -- This message posted from

All, A bit of background: I work on a QA API on a network that is very choppy (a lot of network interrupts), and we use ssh to do a large part of this automation. This leads to some problems: ssh connections seem to be sensitive to network state, becoming unusable if the choppiness reaches a certain threshold, and either timing out or disconnecting if this happens. Anyways, I stumbled across

hey, I just got an ugly, hard-to-fix surpirse when I upgraded from 3.6 to 3.7 for openssh - Now, in 3.7.1, /etc/default/login overrides --with-default-path! Before, it used to prefer --with-default-path (as configured). I'm hoping that this is a bug. It forces every user to have an appropriate .login,.cshrc, or whatever *or* to comment out the appropriate entries in / etc/default/login!

I have a data set with many missing observations. When I run a regression, R of course discards the observations (the whole row) that have "NA". I want to tabulate some baseline characteristics (column means) but only for the observations that R used for the regression. I tried to recreate this data frame by using na.omit on the original data frame, but this will not work as this will

I am indebted to Deepayan Sarkar for lattice graphics, Fritz Leisch for Sweave and the authors of the beamer package for LaTeX. For me these are a "killer app" combination. I wouldn't want to go back to creating presentations in any other way. When I create a presentation I use a Makefile that allows me to the presentation version of the slides, a 4-up version for printing on

hey all 'scp -r ' follows symlinks. IMO this is a bug and should be changed - it: a) hampers the use of scp. As it stands, I cannot use 'scp -r' because of this behavior. If someone links to '/', or if I hit a recursive symlink, I'm screwed. b) It is inconsistant with cp. When you 'cp -r' on a file, it does NOT follow the symlink. When you scp

Hi George, Tow months ago, we talked about how to reduce the scheduling latency for a specific VM which runs a mixed workload, where the boost mechanism can not works well. I have tried some methods to reduce the scheduling latency for some assumed latency-sensitive VMs and got some progress on it. Now I hope to make it on demand. That is to say, I hope to get the scheduler to determine the

Mike, As it stands right now, we use xz for our compression, so if rsync had a similar option for xz that would probably be an improvement. However, I think being able to decompress directly to the remote system would save more; elsewise I don't see how I'm going to be able to avoid untarring and uncompressing the whole xz file on the other end. thanks much, ed On Tue, Dec 6, 2016 at

I'm reading about Local channel and applications. One fancy idea came up: if my generic dial plan uses Dial() with no timeout, can I assign it a timeout for special purposes by Dial(Local/some-exten@mycontext,,20) or even add other Dial() options. Well, I can't. (Maybe a feature request?) So this pseudo channel seems to lack some characteristics of a "real" one. Now the

hey all, I was wondering if openssh did ftp via ssl connection - or if not - what unix package out there did this. I'd love to use sftp, but unfortunately the site I need to interface with only has ftp over ssl. Ed

Hi, I have a local development environment and remote production environment, however I am really just learning/playing, hence I would like to be able to define these environments separately in the config files, however.... I would like my production environment to really act in a development mode fashion at the moment (i.e. sense updates I make without any need to restart things etc). Is

Dear R-listers I am writing a manuscript for a scientific journal in clinical medicine. I have three groups of patients, and I present a 10*3 table of their characteristics in Table 1. Some of their characteristics, e.g. their age, are on a continuous scale, others are dichotomous. I am thinking of presenting the age distribution in each group as miniature graphs, each of which must fit in one

C7, and I did a yum update --disableexcludes=all, and yet it's telling me [nvidia]: excluding kmod-nvidia-410.66-1.el7_5.elrepo.x86_64 [nvidia]: excluding kmod-nvidia-410.73-1.el7_5.elrepo.x86_64 [nvidia]: excluding kmod-nvidia-410.73-2.el7_6.elrepo.x86_64 [nvidia]: excluding kmod-nvidia-410.78-1.el7_6.elrepo.x86_64 [nvidia]: excluding kmod-nvidia-410.93-1.el7_6.elrepo.x86_64 [nvidia]:

hey all, I'm using openssh-3.5p1, was trying to set up a 'reverse telnet' session (sun solaris 2.6 on both machines). Anyways, I was doing: server% ssh -R 1111:<server>:2222 <client> client% ssh -p 1111 <client> where <server> is behind a firewall and <client> cannot reach <server> Anyways the idea was to connect to the socket on

Could someone please recommend a reasonably priced IP phone that works well with *, has a decent (full duplex, echo canceling) speakerphone, has at least two line appearances, and can transfer / conference reliably? The Wiki lists 35 brands of hardphone, but: 1. Most seem to be toys. 2. For many, there is no info on e.g. speakerphone characteristics. 3. When one seems technically promising, e.g.

hi! short question about aaf: is there a builtin functionality in acts_as_ferret to exclude records from being indexed when for example a column "is_deleted" / "is_disabled" / "dont_index" has a certain value? regards neongrau -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

using a standard rsync command line, with this as the --exclude-from file: + /*.pst - *.* While this does include only files with a .pst extension, it also includes files without an extension. This means about 5000 files instead of just a handful. Using the --prune-empty-dirs gets rid of the empty directories, but not the files with no extensions. I've tried: + /*.pst - *.* - * and:

Are any of you using the Intel 320 as ZIL? It''s MLC based, but I understand its wear and performance characteristics can be bumped up significantly by increasing the overprovisioning to 20% (dropping usable capacity to 80%). Anyone have experience with this? Ray
