similar to: cannot write/delete as root

During a routine trawl through the ext3 files, I found some astronomical file sizes, billions and billions of GB. They also has strange user and group names. I can not delete these "weird files" (the term used by the operating system utilities). Here are a few examples. The original files were created on Windoze 98 version 2 circa 2001. > 2411957 p--x---rwx 65487 299196551

Hi, I get the error "Operation not permitted" when I try to delete a file as root, see some commands below. - there is no "i" attribute - it's a problem with the files and not the upper directories since I can delete a similar file in the same directory - fsck -f doesn't find any error on the partition - the partition is mounted rw If this is not the right place to

We run a third party application that creates an inordinate amount of subdirectories in a single directory. To speed up I/O, I wanted to set the T attribute on the directory that will hold the subdirectories. The "chattr +T /usr/local/lepus-bb/a-0607" command returns status 0, but when I verify the setting, the attribute isn't there: # lsattr -d /usr/local/lepus-bb/a-0607

I have three (out of 90) machines with the error: cannot generate tempfile `/tmp/puppet.30616.9'' I have plenty of disk and plenty of inodes. My temp directory is permissioned: drwxrwxrwt 4 root root 20480 2012-05-24 01:33 /tmp I get these for two puppet items on each row. The daemon is not running. I run it manually using /usr/sbin/puppetd --verbose --no-daemonize --onetime

Hi, I enabled dir_index on a filesystem and dumpe2fs -h also reports this. My understanding is that this will be used for newly created directories and that old directories can be indexed using "fsck.ext2 -D". Two questions: - Is there a way to tell is a given directory is indexed or not? - Is there a better way to index the root fs than to boot off a live CD? Best, Norbert

Does anyone know how to remove apparently corrupted files entries? I've got hundreds of files in /lost+found with bogus inodes, for example: br--r--r-- 1 62334 16197 237, 37 May 6 1995 #526307 s-wx-----x 1 65257 255 2530964044 Oct 6 1916 #526309 prwsrwxrw- 1 51879 13066 0 Apr 21 1939 #526318 srwsr--r-x 1 58596 10074 3732091634 May 28 1961

quotacheck takes longer than fsck on our ext2 fileservers. Is this redundant in ext3? Do I need data=journal? Cheers, Matt

I have used restore to restore a snapshot of home data. From the root of this restore a file called aquota.user exists but cannot be removed: # mount|grep temp /dev/mapper/vgraid-temprestore on /mnt/temprestore type ext3 (rw) # cd /mnt/temprestore/home # ll -d . drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Dec 12 11:12 . # ll total 12 -rw------- 1 root root 8192 Sep 30 10:21 aquota.user # rm aquota.user rm:

I just upgrade a file server from RH7.2 to RH8.0. Now, I am having a heck of a time trying to sync up more than 345GB of data. I keep getting "kernel: Out of Memory: Killed process 10101 (rsync)" in /var/log/message. Has anyone seen this problem before? Thanks! Randy

Currently compression and I assume if encryption is implemented it is turned on or off during mount. There are however many times when a user may want to select which files/directories they want to compress or encrypt. This will also be helpful when implementing btrfs support in grub for example. We can say the disk can be compressed/encrypted except for /boot so compression/encryption

Hi! On my notebook I got a strage ext3-related problem: root at jura98 /usr/portage/app-misc/obexftp # ls -l total 4 dr-Sr-sr-t 2 8242 15720 4096 Dec 28 1993 metadata.xml [how this got created is beyond my knowledge, possibly because of some random memory corruption a bad kernel patch caused a few weeks ago] root at jura98 /usr/portage/app-misc/obexftp # rm metadata.xml/ rm: cannot remove

Hi, well I've deployed ext3 on two machines already and so far it does its job excellently at no (for me) noticable performance loss. I hope it gets incorporated into stock kernels by Linus soon. Anyways I've been hearing about ext3 supporting full-data journalling on a per-file basis but couldn't find any detailed info about it. Even tried grep'ing throught the source. How

Hi all, this patch updates the ash-port of klibc to that one found in NetBSD-1.6.1 instead of the horribly old one currently used. It's a bit longish (appearently there has been some work done between 1993 and today), but now it's even useable on 64-bit systems :-). Plus I've added some nice-to-have builtins, e.g. printf.

Does anyone use slackware with samba? And if so, are they able to produce 'log.nmbd' files? I can't. But I can do this just fine with RH8.0. By the way - my version of Slackware is 8.1 -- T.L.Gervais Coldbrook, NS Canada.

I have two networked pcs. pc 1- RH8.0 which came with Samba-backend 1.0.8 and Samba 2.2.5 pc 2- XP Home I am able to access the shared folders from pc2 on pc1. However from pc2 I can not even see the ressources of pc1. In My Network Places/Entire Network/Microsoft Windows Network/"My Workgroup" I can see "pc1" but when I click on it I get an error message: \\"pc1"

Hello, is it possible to set nodatacow on a per-file basis? I couldn''t find anything. If not, wouldn''t that be a great feature to get around the performance issues with VM and database storage? Of course cloning should still cause COW. Thanks, Ralf-Peter -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-btrfs" in the body of a message to

Hi all, Hoping someone might be able to steer me in the right direction and/or help me solve my problem. We have a number of Linux servers (RH6.2 -> RH8) which connect to the same share on a Win2000 Server. We've been working kinda hard to get everything upgraded to either RH7.3 or RH8.0 since we rarely get the opportunity. 2 similar servers (one dev, one prod) access this same window
