<0> How unsecure is it to let /etc/init.d control scripts 755 access? in other words world executable access?
<1> not very
<1> it's the priv the commands in init scripts run under that's critical, not the commands themselves
<1> ie, a script that runs "ifconfig" is no more dangerous than ifconfig itself
<2> in postfix, i'm getting "user unknown. Command output: Invalid user specified" at maildrop, is there a way i can figure out why that is occuring?
<3> hi, i I want write a ftp script in KSH which checks if a file exists on a server or not is there a simple way to do this
<3> is there a simple way to do this?
<4> welp i got the Maxtor Atlas 15K II 73GiB
<5> is it all you imagined in your wet dreams?
<6> have you ghosted your os over?
<7> http://lionsgate.arcostream.net/lionsgate/hostel/clips/hostel_8_300.wmv
<6> to the new drive?
<8> reow
<8> hawson, you still stink.
<8> err your socks do anyway!
<8> hopefully i'll be able to stop back in soon. .)
<9> Where the ruls ?
<5> ruls?
<9> ruls of this channel
<1> we have an unwritten consitution based around precedent
<5> Use pastebin and read directions when asked.. <shrug>
<5> and of course the unwritten rules.. breaking those means your internet will be revoked.
<10> ficus
<10> ops.
<9> :)
<9> I'm don't understand why me kicked ?
<9> You have been kicked from channel #UNIX by Dr-Radium. (hack the gibson)
<9> it's log :)
<1> what rolls down stairs
<1> alone or in pairs
<5> heads
<1> rolls over your neighbour's dog?
<1> what's great for a snack, and fits on your back?
<1> It's LOG, LOG, LOG!
<1> It's LOG! it's LOG!
<1> It's big, it's heavy, it's wood!
<1> It's LOG! It's LOG!
<1> It's better than bad, it's GOOD!
<6> everybody wants a log, everybody needs a log
<9> Figz: Sorry, I'm know my English is very very bad :(
<4> Mouring, the drive is heavy
<4> Mouring, 3lbs
<5> so your wet dreams normally produce 3lbs.. I feel sorry for you.
<4> Mouring, ??
<11> i'd love to use vonage as a SIP trunk, wouldn't you?
<5> no I want my phone line to be clear and working.
<12> morning
<13> morning
<12> you like listening to war? low rider...
<12> I probably asked you that before long time ago.. nm
<13> lol
<13> not a bad song
<14> what does sed -e 's,/[^/]*$$,,'`; do please?
<14> dir=`echo "$$file" | sed -e 's,/[^/]*$$,,'`;
<14> is the whole line
<6> man sed
<6> input something into a text file = sed, -e script, 's,/[^/]* i think would be the script, $$ is the file you echoed you inputing the script into
<15> it's probably supposed to cut off the last component of a path
<6> something like that
<14> dir=`dirname "$$file"` should do the same
<15> $ means 'end-of-line' in a sed expression, $$ looks like an escaping of $, like needed in a Makefile
<14> should do the same?
<6> how does the echo affect the command?
<14> basically what's happening is.. they have some myfiles.sh which are "compiled" and then put in the build dir as myfiles (without the .sh ending). i'm trying to find out where the ending is being taken away in the Makefile
<16> what I would like to know (of pure curiosity) why do you ask about this sed command, found a new file suddenly and got paranoid ?
<15> yes, dirname(1) does about the same
<14> well, I need to run that script: http://freedns.afraid.org/scripts/lastip.phps
<14> How could I do it?
<14> should I set up a cronjob which executes it once in a while ?
<16> why not dyndns ?
<14> uh
<16> (or is this something completely different)
<16> no... it seams to be quite the same
<16> personally I would like to rely on a php install to update my ip
<16> erm.. not
<17> s:)
<14> heh
<16> like, I have a standalone daemon running on my macosx servers and clients which update the ip to dyndns
<16> doesn't need anything
<16> so if I screw up say my php install while I experiment I don't loose the machine... if you see where I'm getting at
<16> oh well
<16> I'm off to vote for Finland next president
<16> :)
<16> nobody noticed, right right ?
<16> pheh, thought so.
<14> im having problem with perl :/ some file faile to located. How do I fix it?
<14> ive tried yum update perl but still cant solve it
<18> morning
<19> hi, apparently this is a really dumb question, but here it goes anyways :)
<19> how secure is pine?
<12> any publically known security vulnerabilities have been fixed
<12> does this answer your dumb question?
<19> so, the only way someone can check my email is by knowing my p***word
<19> i'm so paranoid
<12> best wear a tinfoil hat, your brainwaves could be received by a psychic while you're reading your mail
<19> now *that* is what I want to hear
<20> I'll just add that pine is software from the university of washington
<19> ...i did something really stupid
<19> i typed my p***word in a notebook
<19> and i let someone borrow it who then let other ppl borrow it ect ect
<19> er not typed but wrote
<12> so change your p***word?
<12> p***words are meant to be changed
<12> and it's a good idea to use different p***words for different services
<12> unless it's something you don't care about
<19> i will do that!!
<19> i love it when the answers to questions are easy
<21> Anyone know a little C?
<17> ...
<22> Anyone tell me some main differences between OpenBSD and Linux?
<22> (As many of you here use OpenBSD)
<1> much flatter installation, more emphasis on the server, more centralized development structure
<22> where would Linux have advantages?
<1> some hardware manufacturers release binary-only drivers for linux.. especially graphics hardware
<22> Alright. Thank you Figz
<23> popularity is another linux advantage
<1> and disadvantage..
<23> opposite sides of the same coin
<1> openbsd is largely developed by the same people who founded the os more than ten years ago, and who had been using bsd long before that
<1> and rather than being developed for any commercial interest, they develop it as the os they want to use themselves
<1> so it tends to be very unix-centric in its design, while linux tends to go gnu very often
