It can't find the 'sudo' command, it either doesn't exist or your PATH is set incorrectly

I would highly suggest you not use 'sudo' in a shell script, it's bad practice

gah, wanna quote your code a bit better next time ?

VAR=`grep -n "text" <file>`

On my Solaris system the 'adm' user performs actions on the accounting information. In order to rotate the logs, the 'adm' user needs to have write access to the /var/adm directory.


# ls -ald...

How big is the file system?

Check for core dumps in /var/crash/`hostname`/

It's looking for Libintl, do you have this installed?

If you're using modules ( CPAN or other ) you can bundle them together with your code in an extractable tar file. Then set your @INC appropriately in your perl code.

eg.

app_dir/
lib/...

Yes, this is done by setting the EDITOR variable


$ export EDITOR=emacs
$ crontab -e

Look at the man page for 'crontab'

'crontab -e' to edit the crontab
'crontab -l' to list the contents of your crontab



This entry is fine but if your shell script is set to be executable,...

You can check this with the 'file' command


# file /usr/bin/sh
/usr/bin/sh: ELF 32-bit MSB executable SPARC Version 1, dynamically linked, stripped


Depending on the application whether...

I've never done a raidz before, but is mirroring an option ?

Failing that, you could do a zfs send/receive ....

To further the post above, you will probably want to put this in /etc/vfstab to ensure the swap file persists reboots

If you're concerned about speed, use portsnap. It's now in the default installation and is the suggested way to update your tree. In saying that, csup and cvsup still essentially do the same thing...

Take a look at:

prtconf
prtdiag
cat /etc/path_to_inst

Read the man page for your shell, it's explained there

for i in $(cat Filename.txt)
do
echo "$IFS $i"
done


Look at the example, why are you printing the IFS?

You need to set the IFS to a new line character -- this is not the default action.

Scripts should be written with portability in mind, hence the use of bourne syntax is highly advised

Set your input field separator


$ IFS=$'\n'
$ for i in `cat file_name`
>do
>echo $i;
>done

You have two choices in a situation like this:

Setup a port forward from site A to site B, then VNC through that

from site A

# ssh -L 8080:windows_machine:vnc_port site_B
# vncviewer...

you can use 'dirname' on a fully qualified path to get the directory name.

'basename' will do the opposite


eg.

# dirname /path/to/file
/path/to



# basename /path/to/file
file

The following will lock an account
sudo passwd -l <username>

You could also change the users shell to /bin/false if you don't want them to log in

sudo usermod -s /bin/false <username>

remove the space before the '='

Even though you have your answer, the last reboot/boot time can be found with the 'last' command

Find all lines starting with a number, place that in buffer one. Then write 63 followed by buffer one



Find all lines starting with a number and replace the start of line with 63

Try something like this

sed 's/\(^[0-9]\)/63\1/' <file>
