Hi All,
This is a simple question but I'm getting tired and can't think
straight with this permissions problem:
I am trying to create a directory within which two users will be able
to save and delete documents. This directory is only meant to be
accessible/readable by these two users.
I created directory TEST, under /var/www/html. This contains
subdirectories TEST1, TEST2, TEST3. Each subdirectory contains other
files. I set the permissions recursively to apache:ftp. Both users
are members of group ftp. I chmod -R g+w.
When I create a new subdirectory and save a file in it I noticed that
it is mick:wheel instead of mick:ftp. How do I set it up so that
newly created directories/files inherit the parent group ownership?
You want the setgid bit on for the directory. This causes all new files
and directories in it to be owned by the same group that owns the
top-most directory:
chmod g+s TEST
This won't change permissions on existing directories though, and you
can't use chmod -R (that will sgid the files as well), so use find like
so:
find TEST -type d -exec chmod g+s {} \;
You will also need to enable group write permission on these directories
so that your users can delete stuff. Two ways:
1. Make sure both users use a umask like 775 (this is fragile as the
user can change their umask any time they want)
2. Use an ACL on the directory. 'man setfacl' for more details
Thank you both! sgid is what I was after. The users are trusted (the server
owner and myself) so that'll do for now. I will also check acl, in case the
need arises in the future for control of a finer granularity.

Well, I tried `start-stop-daemon --help' but I did not understand much.
So I ran 'kdm' from command line and . . . KDE works!
How can I make kdm start on boot again?
Does this give anyy output? It should give /usr/kde/3.5/bin/kdm.
. /lib/rcscripts/sh/rc-services.sh
get_options service xdm
In /etc/X11/startDM.sh, in line 22, this is being used to determine what to
start with `start-stop-daemon --exec ${EXEC} a few lines later:
EXEC=$(get_options service)
I think you get empty output, so EXEC is empty, and start-stop-daemon
complains about a missing argument.
get_options reads the file /var/lib/init.d/options/xdm/service, if existing.
It should be created by the correspnding save_options routine
in /etc/init.d/xdm. Maybe you could add a
set -xv
before the
save_options service ${EXE}
line in order to get useful debug output. After a quick look, I do not see
what the problem could be there.

[gentoo-user] Depclean question
I have just used depclean for the first time (I was afraid of it) after several years of Gentoo. It has cleaned up my system a good bit but now it wants to remove some packages that I'm concerned about: gcc-3.4.6-r2 (I'm using 4.1.2) libstdc++-v3-3.3.4 and virtual/libstdc++ virtual/jdk and virual/jre (it leaves the later versions in both cases) qt-4.1.4-r2 (leaving qt-3.3.8-r4) several early versions of db leaving db-4.5.20_p2 and a few others How much danger is there if I remove these?

Well, you might find yourself in an un-usable GUI system upon reboot. To add packages, that you care about, to your world file use: emerge --noreplace atom. Do this with all the packages you want to keep / you feel are essential to your system. I'd like, however, that someone more experienced confirm my comments.

[gentoo-user] kdelibs won't build after change in GCC to 4.1.2 from 3.4.6
I just upgraded to GCC 4.1.2, and have rebuilt system. I'm about halfway through rebuilding world, and it's choking on kdelibs. The complaint seems to be about libstdc++, which does not seem to exist. Moreover, the only ebuild related to it that I can see is the compatibility library that is already emerged. The actual error I see is: /bin/sh ../../libtool --silent --tag=CXX --mode=compile i686-pc-linux-gnu-g++ -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I../.. -I../../dcop -I../../kdecore -I../../kio/kssl -I../../kjs -I../../arts/kde -I../.. -I/usr/kde/3.5/include/arts -I../../dcop -I../../libltdl -I../../kdefx -I../../kdecore -I../../kdecore -I../../kdecore/network -I../../kdeui -I../../kio -I../../kio/kio -I../../kio/kfile -I../.. -I/usr/qt/3/include -I. -I/usr/kde/3.5/include -DQT_THREAD_SUPPORT -D_REENTRANT -Wno-long-long -Wundef -ansi -D_XOPEN_SOURCE=500 -D_BSD_SOURCE -Wcast-align -Wchar-subscripts -Wall -W -Wpointer-arith -DNDEBUG -DNO_DEBUG -O2 -O2 -march=pentium4 -fomit-frame-pointer -pipe -mfpmath=sse -msse2 -mmmx -Wformat-security -Wmissing-format-attribute -Wno-non-virtual-dtor -fno-exceptions -fno-check-new -fno-common -DQT_CLEAN_NAMESPACE -DQT_NO_ASCII_CAST -DQT_NO_STL -DQT_NO_COMPAT -DQT_NO_TRANSLATION -c -o libartskde_la.all_cpp.lo libartskde_la.all_cpp.cpp /bin/sh ../../libtool --silent --tag=CXX --mode=compile i686-pc-linux-gnu-g++ -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I../.. -I../../dcop -I../../kdecore -I../../kio/kssl -I../../kjs -I../../arts/kde -I../.. -I/usr/kde/3.5/include/arts -I../../dcop -I../../libltdl -I../../kdefx -I../../kdecore -I../../kdecore -I../../kdecore/network -I../../kdeui -I../../kio -I../../kio/kio -I../../kio/kfile -I../.. -I/usr/qt/3/include -I. -I/usr/kde/3.5/include -DQT_THREAD_SUPPORT -D_REENTRANT -Wno-long-long -Wundef -ansi -D_XOPEN_SOURCE=500 -D_BSD_SOURCE -Wcast-align -Wchar-subscripts -Wall -W -Wpointer-arith -DNDEBUG -DNO_DEBUG -O2 -O2 -march=pentium4 -fomit-frame-pointer -pipe -mfpmath=sse -msse2 -mmmx -Wformat-security -Wmissing-format-attribute -Wno-non-virtual-dtor -fno-exceptions -fno-check-new -fno-common -DQT_CLEAN_NAMESPACE -DQT_NO_ASCII_CAST -DQT_NO_STL -DQT_NO_COMPAT -DQT_NO_TRANSLATION -c -o libartskde_la.all_cc.lo libartskde_la.all_cc.cc /bin/sh ../../libtool --silent --tag=CXX --mode=link i686-pc-linux-gnu-g++ -Wno-long-long -Wundef -ansi -D_XOPEN_SOURCE=500 -D_BSD_SOURCE -Wcast-align -Wchar-subscripts -Wall -W -Wpointer-arith -DNDEBUG -DNO_DEBUG -O2 -O2 -march=pentium4 -fomit-frame-pointer -pipe -mfpmath=sse -msse2 -mmmx -Wformat-security -Wmissing-format-attribute -Wno-non-virtual-dtor -fno-exceptions -fno-check-new -fno-common -DQT_CLEAN_NAMESPACE -DQT_NO_ASCII_CAST -DQT_NO_STL -DQT_NO_COMPAT -DQT_NO_TRANSLATION-o libartskde.la -rpath /usr/kde/3.5/lib -L/usr/kde/3.5/lib -L/usr/qt/3/lib -no-undefined -Wl,--no-undefined -Wl,--allow-shlib-undefined -version-info 3:0:2 libartskde_la.all_cc.lo libartskde_la.all_cpp.lo ../../kio/libkio.la -lqtmcop -lsoundserver_idl libtool: link: warning: `/lib/libacl.la' seems to be moved libtool: link: warning: `/lib/libattr.la' seems to be moved grep: /usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-linux-gnu/4.1.2/libstdc++.la: No such file or directory /bin/sed: can't read /usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-linux-gnu/4.1.2/libstdc++.la: No such file or directory libtool: link: `/usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-linux-gnu/4.1.2/libstdc++.la' is not a valid libtool archive make[3]: *** [libartskde.la] Error 1 make[3]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/kde-base/kdelibs-3.5.7-r3 /work/kdelibs-3.5.7/arts/kde' make[2]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/kde-base/kdelibs-3.5.7-r3 /work/kdelibs-3.5.7/arts' make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/kde-base/kdelibs-3.5.7-r3 /work/kdelibs-3.5.7' make: *** [all] Error 2 * * ERROR: kde-base/kdelibs-3.5.7-r3 failed. * Call stack: * ebuild.sh, line 1654: Called dyn_compile * ebuild.sh, line 990: Called qa_call 'src_compile' * ebuild.sh, line 44: Called src_compile * kdelibs-3.5.7-r3.ebuild, line 153: Called kde_src_compile * kde.eclass, line 170: Called kde_src_compile 'all' * kde.eclass, line 340: Called kde_src_compile 'myconf' 'configure' 'make' * kde.eclass, line 336: Called die * * died running emake, kde_src_compile:make * If you need support, post the topmost build error, and the call stack if relevant. * A complete build log is located at '/var/tmp/portage/kde-base/kdelibs- 3.5.7-r3/temp/build.log'. * and emerge -- info treat ~ # emerge --info Portage 2.1.3.9 (default-linux/x86/2006.1/desktop, gcc-4.1.2, glibc-2.5-r4, 2.6.22-gentoo-r8-kosmanor i686) = System uname: 2.6.22-gentoo-r8-kosmanor i686 Intel(R) XEON(TM) CPU 1.80GHz Timestamp of tree: Tue, 16 Oct 2007 08:50:01 + ccache version 2.4 [disabled] app-shells/bash: 3.2_p17 dev-java/java-config: 1.3.7, 2.0.33-r1 dev-lang/python: 2.4.4-r5 dev-python/pycrypto: 2.0.1-r6
[gentoo-user] migrating to LVM
I have a working gentoo install which I don't want to muck with too much, except to change over to LVM. I understand that I can use dd so that everything will be in a LVM, but I'm unclear on the outline. The LVM is created, the root partition is copied over to the LVM, then grub, fstab and initrd and edited to reflect the changes? arrakis ~ # arrakis ~ # fdisk /dev/hda The number of cylinders for this disk is set to 9729. There is nothing wrong with that, but this is larger than 1024, and could in certain setups cause problems with: 1) software that runs at boot time (e.g., old versions of LILO) 2) booting and partitioning software from other OSs (e.g., DOS FDISK, OS/2 FDISK) Command (m for help): p Disk /dev/hda: 80.0 GB, 80026361856 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 9729 cylinders Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/hda1 1191215358108+ 83 Linux /dev/hda219131925 104422+ 83 Linux /dev/hda31926972962685630 8e Linux LVM Command (m for help): q arrakis ~ # arrakis ~ # fdisk /dev/hdb The number of cylinders for this disk is set to 59582.
