Linux is a UNIX-like open source operating system with hundreds of distinct distributions, including: Fedora, openSUSE, Ubuntu, Debian, Slackware, Gentoo, CentOS, and Arch Linux. Linux is generally associated with web and database servers, but has become popular in many niche industries and applications.

I am trying to set up shares from both windows and Kubunu to allow data transfer......
My attempt at setting up a share in Kubuntu using Konsole, has resulted in a "shareFolder" in the desired location. I have set an smb password - all good.
Have "checked" the folder settings using the Kabuntu GUI and permissions and sharing seem to be set OK.
However from windows - can see and map to the folder - permissions (using the username / password combination) set up - fails to authenticate.
Set up a shared folder in Windows - but Kubunu does not see the folder when I am try to "map or discover" from Kubuntu.
So two issues here.
Windows to KUbuntu - permissions issue - as I see it,
Kubuntu to Windows -probably needs to be re-set up.

Running Win10 - latest
Kubuntu - older(??) flagging an Os update - though this is probably irrelevant in this scenario.

Any wizard out there willing to take on this onerous task?
All assistance gratefully received.

Hello ,

For a project we are using ip.h library of the linux.
As far as i check the library , http://www.cse.scu.edu/~dclark/am_256_graph_theory/linux_2_6_stack/linux_2ip_8h-source.html  , i could not find a way to check Window size , is there any way to read complete packet hex with this library and get the window size of packet hex like given below :

			long dec_Window_size = std::stol (packet_hex.substr(96,4),nullptr,16);

I  have a few question for selection of drop policy applied place.

1. Which one first apply the drop rule ?
2. iptables and nftables are user space appliances but i do not know deeper , are they work in kernel space and pipe the requests from user space or are they work completely after kernel space ?
3. Is there any possibility to drop a packet before any kernel space module ,i tryed with netfilter and drop an ip xx.xx.xx.xx and i realize that tcpdump still reading the traffic but iptables not. So the traffic is passing to kernel space still on netfilter.

I had my Apache2 running good on my development machine.

I changed some site configurations and started running the noip.com's client, even though this is a production machine, to see if I could access it from the world wide web.

I tried to install it in terminal and came across the following error

brian@brian-XPS-13:~$ sudo service apache2 start
[sudo] password for brian: 
Job for apache2.service failed because the control process exited with error code. See "systemctl status apache2.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details.

I'm trying to test network connectivity from an Ubuntu 16.04 server to a Windows 2008 server for a piece of software I'm running.  I have a share on my Windows Server that I need to access from the Ubuntu server, I'm not a Linux guy, how can I go about doing this, everything I find on Google is from Windows to Linux, I need Linux to Windows

Is there a way I can add a linux box to my domain network for monitoring purposes?  I'm a complete novice on this particular topic and don't know if my question even makes sense, but I have lots of spare machines I could use and dozens of Linux software disks that have come with my subscriptions to LinuxUser  and to Admin.

Is there a trade pub that would cover this, or a white paper?

i am in particular folder say abc.

I did ls -ltr where there are bunch of files.

i want to search all the files starting with file name xyz alone ignoring other starting with pqr etc(ignore pqr000.log.20170806.gz etc).
My search should result like

xyz123.log.20170806.gz
xyz456.log.20170806.gz
xyz789.log.20170806.gz etc



What is the command i have to use for that.

is it grep or find or something else.

when i gave grep xyz.* it did not gave any result.

how searching inside a file content is different from search outside on unix file names.

any good link on these commands? please advise

Experts, how can we use the snmpd command to find a server's OID string?

We are testing Zabbix but seems like it does not have snmpwalk like the document. We tried to find and install it but could not. Many thanks!

I live in the dorms and am looking to start learning server administration. The only problem is it's all wifi and we don't have ethernet.

I bought a $30 wifi to ethernet adapter but it doesn't connect to the school's network and it only sometimes connects to a mobile phone.

I was thinking I could buy one of those USB adapters and install the driver (obviously it would be installed already on Ubuntu Desktop).

Would this work?

Also the device needs a Mac Address for the wifi network to accept it. Do these USB devices have Mac Addresses?

We have a VTiger 6.4 running on a CentOS linux with a customer portal enabled.

We are unable to send out the customer portal password emails. Internally the password emails work, but if we enter an external email address the e-mail will not send.

We are also running an Exchange 2016 server.

Hi experts,
Have a schedule job which I would like to execute at 2am with crontab expression (command).

Question is How can I write it to execute only once please?

I know it defeats the purpose, but how to come up with the cmd pls

Eg. If I schedule it for tomorrow 2am, it should execute at 2 and it should never re-execute

Thanks in advance

i just got a hand me down surface RT. twice when the battery was allowed to completely die, the device got stuck in an auto repair fail. i was able to reset the machine both times though it took multiple times each time (maybe unable to complete process until fully charged?), but the second time the machine shut down when i was running through the setup steps. when it came back up it was back in the failed auto repair cycle.

my husband said when he looked at it he found two recovery drives and deleted one. now the machine is requiring windows media.

i created a bootable usb but it fails after completing about 65% of the process.

i tried using the command prompt to rename system to system .001 and software to software.001 but it said the later was in use.

tried using a linux boot usb but woudlnt work then found articles online that stated microsoft purposefully locked down surface RTs from being able to be used with linux.

is it a paperweight at this point or is there something i am missing that i can try?
