Files Updated When New User Domain Is Added

Hello,

Is there a command / set of commands that I can use that can show me which library files are updated after something has been installed on my system?

I have an installer which states "Library files updated" but I can see now evidence of which files have actually been modified.

This is causing some issues in the operation of the system.

Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.

I have two servers, “ServerA” and “ServerB”. Using SLES SP3.

ServerA is the main server with LTSP running

I have used DD to image the drives from ServerA to ServerB. ServerB now boots and is identical to ServerA,and all is well. I want to use ServerB as a backup server, so if ServerA goes down I can bring server online. Obviously in order to put them both on the same network (to keep the user files updated on a daily basis) I need to change the IP address and the host name of serverB (currently is the same as ServerA).

I have done the following (copied from my notes):
Code:

  The following file, binds the ethernet MAC address to ETH0 or ETH1 etc..  We need to delete this file so that a new one is automatically created during reboot with the correct MAC address bound to ETH0
  Delete this file:
      /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules

  make sure to change the static IP address in the following files
    /etc/dhcp.d
    /etc/hosts
    /etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-eth0
    /opt/ltsp/i386/etc/ltsp.conf

  give the system a different host name in:
    /etc/HOSTNAME

Reboot the system

When I change the HOSTNAME, the server will boot, bring me to a log in screen and then after I log in it will just sit there with the green background and a cursor. What files am I forgetting to change..

Hello, I'm sort of a novice Linux user and was running into an issue with user migration. I'm trying to migrate users and groups from a RHEL 5.11 install to a CentOS 6.6 install, both systems are 64 bit. Initially I tried to do an rsync of the passwd, shadow, group and gshadow files with no luck. When trying to login with an existing account on the new server I get access denied. I tried to change the password on the new server, but even then it doesn't seem to change the password and I still get access denied. I then tried to tar up the four above files and then extracted them on the new server, but the same issue existed. I also created a new account on the old server, copied all the necessary files over to the new server and still have the same issues. Any ideas what I may be doing wrong or what I can try next? This is getting frustrating!

Thanks!

Hello Everyone! I'm somewhat new to linux, and getting my feet wet by building my first linux server.

So what i have is an application that moves/sorts files. Another program that catalogs them.

The problem is that each app uses it's own user. So my question is if there is any way that files owned by prog1user can be read by prog2user?

I have tried doing a chmod -R 755 Directory and that has allowed the second program to see the files, but I'm guessing this has certain security risks (although I'm not so worried about the files in this directory).

Anyways I was wondering if there was a proper way to do this? OS is debian wheezy.

Cheers!

Hi,

I have created primary and Secondry Dns Server i am not getting any errors but master server transfer has started but zone files not updating...my doubt should i create create zone files else server itself create....

My Firefox browser says it needs to be updated so I downloaded the file but when I open it I can't see how to update it as there are just lots of files and folders. Is there another way to update programmes I am missing?

I am running xubuntu 11.10, fully updated, on an Acer 250 netbook (1GB ram, 1.8 GHz clock, single core Atom processor, if you can believe it). Runs pretty well, I think. So much so that I have decided to migrate from Windows to Linux.

My first question to the forum is this: I have set the Thunar file explorer to show hidden files. However, hidden files still don't show up on various File Open or Browse... dialogs.

How can I set up xfce or xubuntu to always display .hiddenfiles in Open... or Browse... dialogs?

Problem comes up when I want to edit some .config file or run the alacarte Main Menu editor and have to specify some long path to an executable in a hidden directory (as in wine). I have to enter the file name manually, which gets to be a problem for my thumb-fingered typing.

Hey guys, I got samba working and I am able to access my files, however I am now trying to learn security with it. i am pretty much trying to allow certain groups access certain files. if you look at samba group you can see that I have @sambausers group to access sambagroup directory.

I have a user called sambatest01. the user can access "samba users only" but the user can access all of the other files as well. what is a correct set up on the other smb.conf to prevent users from accessing this? I cant seem to find a proper set up


[drivers]
path = /files/drivers
browseable = yes
read only = no
guest ok = no
guest only = no


[samba users only]
path = /files/sambagroup
browseable = yes
read only = no
guest ok = no
guest only = no
write list = @sambausers
valid users = @sambausers

I would like to tar up some system logs with core files as a normal user through a script. However these core files are owned by root.

Of course I get "cannot read directory ...: Permission denied"

Is there a good way to grab these core files through a script? From searching around, I get that the best way is to modify the sudoers file, then run the script with sudo. Is this considered the safest and best way?

Thanks!

I'm trying to figure out if find could do this. I have a folder with 1000 files. I want to delete 150 files on that folder regardless of timestamp and filename. Is there a tool, command or option on find that could do this, please let me know.

Combining mtime or ctime to find is not advisable since it will not count the files or even if there are matches, I would still need to sum up the files until I reach 150 files.

Any suggestions?
