I’m trying to force a newly created user to change a password at the first time login using ssh. For security reasons I want to give him a secure password until he logs in for the first time. I did the following so far:
I’d like to install linux, but I don’t want to risk damaging my current windows installation as I have heard a lot of horror stories. Fortunately, I have an extra hard drive. Can I install linux onto that and then dual boot windows without having to modify the windows drive?
I’m aware that shared objects under Linux use “so numbers”, namely that different versions of a shared object are given different extensions, for example:
The program is located in /usr/bin/mail. Upon execution, Version 8.1.2 01/15/2001 is shown.
I’ve got an eeePC 900a: it has a 8GB flash as disk and only 1GB of RAM. The Linux distribution installed on it is ArchLinux.
When I write Bash code, for example to copy files, if a file doesn’t exist, in the terminal I see an error similar to file not found. If the user running the script doesn’t have the necessary permissions, the error is similar to permission denied.
I have this script that prints out a box frame with Asterisk signs, and I need to make it so that the script prints out multiple boxes under each other. How can I do it?
Is there a diagram that shows how the various performance tools such as ip, netstat, perf, top, ps, etc. interact with the various subsystems within the Linux kernel?
Is there any tool available to sync files between two or more linux servers immediately after writing the file in the disk? The rsync command does not suit me on this, because if I set rsync in cron, the minimum time I can set is 1 minute, but I need it on real-time basis.
