I want to have a script updating a web page. Basically it downloads a
podcast file, amends some tags and saves it to a directory in apache's
htdocs, (and from there I have other podcast reading software read it.)
It needs to be run via cron.
I don't want to run the script as root, but the

I seem to be completely clueless about how to get the script to be able
to update in the htdocs hierarchy, it could be the headache i have, or

Hi,
Also, SCSI support being compiled into the kernel only means that the
kernel is sufficiently capable to load further SCSI-related modules.
This typically also includes e.g. basic SCSI CDROM support.

initrd for every new

Irrelevant, as that initrd is generated automatically by a script
whenever the kernel is updated by the vendor.

Hi, I have some backup scripts for (individually) copying data, email,
home, making use of --exclude lines to ignore certain folders I don't
want to copy. Generally works really well except that hidden folders
specified in --exclude are ignored.
For example
--exclude /home/roger/dvd \

The problem arises from the trailing slash on the paths, not from the
leading period.

Look at --exclude-from FILENAME
and have a list of all the paths you want to skip in FILENAME
which is easy and works exactly as I am wanting.

Hi All,
Putting aside the initrd/compile in argument, it seems that something is
either missing from Rhit's kernel or from his initrd. Its likely to be the
low level scsi driver for his chipset.
That must be. I must have not taken care to compile in the driver for
the chipset into the kernel.
