Exact path to a file
I uploaded a database file to Public_html of a virtual server using Unix and a dedicated ip address. I can reach it by browser in typing the address as xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/Directoryname/databasename.dat . I am asked what I want to do, download or open.
When I try to reach the file via a program which uses the file, but is not made for using files on a server, but on a local computer, a internal network or a VPN like Hamachi, the program doesn't find the file by typing in the address as shown below:
\\xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx\Directoryname\databasename.dat or
\\xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx\public_html\Directoryname\databasename.dat or
//xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/Directoryname/databasename.dat or
//xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/public_html/Directoryname/databasename.dat
Any help is appreciated.

Hi,
I have a file with about 60 lines of path:
app-defaults/boxXYZ.......
I want to change this to /my/path/goes/here/app-defaults/boxXYZ, but of course vi doesn't like the regualr :s/old/new/ command.
Is there any other quick way to do this?
Thanks ;) (2 Replies)

guards
GUARDS(1) User Contributed Perl Documentation GUARDS(1)
NAME
guards - select from a list of files guarded by conditions
SYNOPSIS
guards [--prefix=dir] [--path=dir2:dir2:...] [--default=0|1] [-v|--invert-match] [--list|--check] [--config=file] symbol ...
DESCRIPTION
The script reads a configuration file that may contain so-called guards, file names, and comments, and writes those file names that satisfy
all guards to standard output. The script takes a list of symbols as its arguments. Each line in the configuration file is processed
separately. Lines may start with a number of guards. The following guards are defined:
+xxx Include the file(s) on this line if the symbol xxx is defined.
-xxx Exclude the file(s) on this line if the symbol xxx is defined.
+!xxx Include the file(s) on this line if the symbol xxx is not defined.
-!xxx Exclude the file(s) on this line if the symbol xxx is not defined.
- Exclude this file. Used to avoid spurious --check messages.
The guards are processed left to right. The last guard that matches determines if the file is included. If no guard is specified, the
--default setting determines if the file is included.
If no configuration file is specified, the script reads from standard input.
The --check option is used to compare the specification file against the file system. If files are referenced in the specification that do
not exist, or if files are not enlisted in the specification file warnings are printed. The --path option can be used to specify which
directory or directories to scan. Multiple directories are separated by a colon (":") character. The --prefix option specifies the
location of the files.
