similar to: overwrite any file with updatedb

----- KSR[T] Website : http://www.dec.net/ksrt E-mail: ksrt@dec.net ----- KSR[T] Advisory #003 Date: Aug 05, 1997 ID #: lin-cron-003 Operating System(s): Redhat linux 4.1, SuSE Linux 5.0, Slackware 3.3 Affected Program:

It turns out that if you specify filesystem type `auto' in /etc/fstab, updatedb (the thing which updates your `locate' database) ceases to work. Here's the contents of my /etc/updatedb.conf: PRUNEFS="devpts NFS nfs afs proc smbfs autofs auto iso9660" PRUNEPATHS="/tmp /usr/tmp /var/tmp /afs /net" export PRUNEFS export PRUNEPATHS deleting the `auto' entry

We have seen at a number of deployments, users experiencing slowness of GlusterFS over a period of time (as the volume usage grows). Some times it happens once in a day. This is due to updatedb cron job script that wakes up once in a day to index all the files it can find. It is configured by default to ignore network file systems such as NFS and lustre. Please add fuse.glusterfs to the list.

I've just noticed that I'm having issues with finding files using "locate" when those files are on btrfs subvolume mounts. The issue is that updatedb cannot discern the difference between a btrfs bind mount and btrfs subvolume [1]. This generally means that if you're using btrfs subvolume mounts and updatedb at the same time, and you want to index those subvolumes,

Hi list For some reason mlocate is taking a long time when I run the updatedb command. Have a look! [root at beta:~] #time updatedb real 19m48.729s user 0m0.400s sys 0m2.728s It's not a big volume by any means [root at beta:~] #df -h Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/xvda1 75G 9.1G 63G 13% / So I'm wondering what could be causing

I set this computer up with Centos 8 a few days ago. "systemctl status mlocate-updatedb.timer" says "Active (waiting)". But the mlocate database hasn't been updated since the last time I ran updatedb manually. # ls -l /var/lib/mlocate/* -rw-r-----. 1 root slocate 22944208 Feb 29 10:30 /var/lib/mlocate/mlocate.db What have I missed? -- MELVILLE THEATRE ~ Real D 3D

If you have used * to support a pri as pri_net (as opposed to pri_cpe), either to talk to another * system or a PBX of some sort, I would be very interested in hearing about your experiences. Imparticular, I would like to know that it works before I invest in the extra hardware. TIA Bruce Komito High Sierra Networks, Inc. www.servers-r-us.com (775) 284-5800 ext 115

Can somebody takes part in adding the following functionality to Samba4: It is necassary to do Samba4 computer as multi DMB or I think more likely as multi LMB for multigroups additionally to default main domain / group. That is necasary to add to Samba4 such functionality in Samba4 code and add to smb.conf at least 3 parameters: - multi browser support = yes/no - switch on / off this feature -

Is there some magic to compiling asterisk-addons-1.6.0 under Debian 2.6.18 and mysql 5.0? I am unable to get configure to recognize the existance of mysqlclient. Imparticular, when it gets to: checking for mysql_init in -lmysqlclient... it returns "no". For the past several releases, I've had to hack or otherwise coerce this to work, but this time, no amount of fiddling with

Hello, I'm talking about re-writing the classicupgrade HowTo since over a year now. :-) Now, after three rainy vacation days, it's finaly done: A complete and comprehensive re-write of the classicupgrade HowTo: https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Samba_Classic_Upgrade_%28NT4-style_domain_to_AD%29 Some other mentionable documentation changes, I had done during the last week: *

I don't know if this is of interest as an alternative. I did find a cool functionality called locate and updatedb Updatedb creates the database of your files, locate does superfast searches. It essentially does a superfast "find" on your root filesystem, giving you the fully qualified path of all hits. You can create db's on your other filessytems. The problem is that it can

Hi I logged in to one of my servers today and noticed that the load average is very high.

You mentioned that your systems are running Fedora Core. At 4:00 every morning cron runs the updatedb script to update the locate database. That script looks for files on all local files systems on the machine. When it does this it causes starvation of memory so the kswap process activates, while that process is looking for candidates to move to swap space your regular user processes will

There is malware that names the files .crypt A novel solution here https://isc.sans.edu/diary/Novel+method+for+slowing+down+Locky+on+Samba+server+using+fail2ban/20805 though it seems locky specific I use this non-samba solution in cron.hourly. Pretty awful, but it works for malware that I know about. I have fast drives, so updatedb only takes a few seconds. #!/bin/sh updatedb wait 20 if

Hi, I have a global data-frame in my R script. At some point in my script, I want to update certain columns of this data-frame by calling in an update function. The function looks like this: # get events data. This populates a global event data frame in the R-script events <- getEvents(con, eventsFilePath) # events has columns eventid, timeStamp, isSynchronized, timeDiff; with millions of
