Awesome, that worked! (I guess I got rid of the unnecessary whitespace and the necessary). Thanks.
I'm glad you mentioned that, I'm actually a bit confused with the different files. My UNIX teacher taught us ~/.profile was what you use, then the ubuntu forums explained you should use .bashrc for an assignment (like the one I did below).
My professor explained that its just because every linux/unix system is a bit unique, but I feel like there must be a more reasonable explanation for the different files - or at least a glossary/breakdown of the different ?daily-script-containers? somewhere ... no?
hello everybody,
I am trying to find the path of the Recycle Bin. I know that it's a temporary storage place, but it should have a path that we can refer to.
I want to know it because I sometimes use cygwin to work on Windows, and when you delete something with it, it's gone. I just checked... (4 Replies)
Hello,

My part is stuck... (2 Replies)

Hi,
Humorous UNIX Commands shows a fun way of using echo and dc to sort of obfuscate a string.

Hi.
I'm started to use minix 3.2.1 recently and I'm trying to create a recycle bin for it. I'm kinda struggling on how to do it. I searched internet and I found scripts created for it but I actually didn't learn how to create scripts in college and I'm not sure if I understand them. I just wanted... (1 Reply)
Hi.
I've created scripts for a recycle bin that can list, restore and empty it. I only have the problem of deleting two files with the same name. When I do it one file overwrite the other. What could I do to resolve it? The only thing I can think is asking the user to rename file before moving to... (2 Replies)

nbdst
NBDST(8) BSD System Manager's Manual NBDST(8)NAME
nbdst -- NetBoot deferred shadow tool
SYNOPSIS
nbdst [-recycle | -preallocate size] devnode shadowfile
DESCRIPTION
nbdst is used during NetBoot to associate a shadow file with the disk image being used as the root device. After the shadow file is attached,
subsequent writes to the root device will be redirected to the shadow file, which normally resides on local storage. nbdst is invoked by
/etc/rc.netboot
ARGUMENTS
The following arguments must be specified:
devnode The device node of the root device, in the form "disk0"
shadowfile Path to a shadow file which will be created and associated with the NetBoot root device
OPTIONS -recycle If a shadow file already exists, reset it and use it again. Otherwise, information written to an existing shadow file will reap-
pear. Reusing a previous shadow file without resetting it requires that the shadow file be created with the same base image.
-preallocate size
Set the shadow file to the given size up front. This forces a reset of the shadow file (like -recycle).
NOTE
nbdst can only be run as root.
