/etc/shadow Question

Hi,

Right now on my system i have 5/6 users in my /etc/passwd file but all of them are in clear.
I know that normally encrypted passwords are in /etc/shadow and i know that the commands cryptpw and mkpasswd can be used to encrypt a string of character.

If for example an user is like this in passwd :

banana:lasagna:3:0:food:/:/bin/sh

Do i have to edit manually the shadow file with the encrypted string corresponding to "lasagna" here ? And what must i write in this shadow file ?

Thank you for the future answers !

Hello,

I am trying to install OCI8. I'm pretty sure the last thing I need to do is run the "./configure" command, but no matter where I try to run it, it gives me back a "file not found" or "command not found" error. I have tried this on CentOS and Fedora and always install PHP with yum. I have done many GUI searches looking through the file system for "php" and have tried to run ./configure in every php folder I can find but the command never runs. Any suggestions are very much appreciated. Thanks so much!

P.S. Do I even need to do this if I already edited the "php.ini" file and installed OCI8 with PECL? Thanks!

Hi all,

I have a system which maps "/var/log" as a "tmpfs" filesystem with a defined size of 32MB.

What will happen to my system if this becomes full? I have a system that is over-logging and writing too much to my "/var/log/messages" file.

For reference, my RAM on the machine is 2GB.

Would this cause the device to power cycle itself?

i need a bash script to switch to zero second on ac the waiting time for turning off the monitor (highlighten in red). same as for on battery (highlighten in purple)

Code:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<channel name="xfce4-power-manager" version="1.0">
  <property name="xfce4-power-manager" type="empty">
    <property name="power-button-action" type="empty"/>
    <property name="show-tray-icon" type="empty"/>
    <property name="logind-handle-lid-switch" type="bool" value="true"/>

Hi guys,

I am looking to write a script where I need to process many sets of transactions.
I want to process the set if $ 1 == "01" field $5 = "W", and $ 1 == "07" field $3 = "YY" otherwise copy set to output.

Example of the input file:

Code:

01 08 77 78  W  9890
02 08 66 68 0 8554
07 08  YY  85 9 7545
01 08 99 87 X 8787
04 09 85 85 4 8758
09 87 88 78 7 6584
10 84 ZZ 99 8 9887

A new set is always starting with $1 == "01".
Script should only process first set because its 5th value is "W" and put "MATCHED" in the end.
and copy the unmatched set "X" as it is to output.

Code:

Example of output file:
 01 08 77 78 W 9890
02 08 66 68 0 8554
07 08 YY 85 9 7545
MATCHED 
 01 08 99 87 X 8787
04 09 85 85 4 8758
09 87 88 78 7 6584
10 84 ZZ 99 8 9887 

and so on..
thanks for your help

I use following shell script to send email. But the subject of email always shows "This" instead of "This is L_1.R is finished". You may refer http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-newbie-8/how-to-define-variable-in-%60ssh%60-4175540566/
Code:

host_list=("c15-0330-01.ad.mtu.edu" "c15-0330-02.ad.mtu.edu" "c15-0330-03.ad.mtu.edu" "c15-0330-04.ad.mtu.edu")
program=("L_1" "L_2" "L_3" "L_4")
subject="The job is finished"
ssh -f c15-0330-01.ad.mtu.edu 'echo' "the job ${program[0]} is finished" '|' 'mutt "zwang10@mtu.edu" -s' "This is "${program[0]}".R is finished";

I just installed Redhat 7 and try to config the network , add the IP address to network card , but I got the problem.

I modify the file /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-enp0s3 , the configuration is as below , and then reboot .

DEVICE="enp0s3"
NETBOOT="yes"
HWADDR="08:00:27:15:38:B7"
TYPE="Ethernet"
BOOTPROTO="none"
NAME="enp0s3"
UUID="462f4834-4fe7-43a7-84e7-83b2722e94c1"
ONBOOT="yes"
IPADDR="192.168.1.1"
NETMASK="255.255.255.0"

After reboot , I use "ip addr show" still not shown the ip address , the ip address is still blank , would advise what is wrong ? thanks

hello all,

please help me with python ftplib. i was trying to copy files from my linux machine to a windows server using ftplib. everything was working good. but i'm only able to copy files from the same directory the script is. how do i copy files from a different directory? i always get "file not found error message". here's my code :

Code:

tester_name = str (socket.gethostname())
def upload(ftp, file):
    ext = os.path.splitext(file)[1]
    if ext in (".txt", ".htm", ".html"):
        ftp.storlines("STOR " + file, open(file))
    else:
        ftp.storbinary("STOR " + file, open(file, "rb"), 1024)



parse_source_path = ('/path/to/where/i/go/')
parse_source_file_list = os.listdir(parse_source_path)

ftp = ftplib.FTP("server_IP")
ftp.login("username", "pass")

folder_list = []

ftp.dir(folder_list.append)

if str(tester_name) not in str(folder_list) :
    ftp.mkd("%s"%tester_name)
    ftp.cwd("%s"%tester_name)
    for files in parse_source_file_list :
        print files
        upload(ftp, files)


else :
    print "later"
