What is it with tar, a command so old it it like going to rent a car and taking the 1962 VW beetle, especially when not leaving the host!
Yes, tar will make copies, so you just copy the file you want back. If /a/b/c/d is restored:
Code:
cp -p /clonetree/a/b/c/d /a/b/c/d
Copies are slower than links and take more space. You can use cpio -pl to make linked clone trees. The linking is more likely possible if you clone within one device. https://www.unix.com/man-page/OpenSolaris/1/cpio/
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)

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.

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)

lmfsetup(8) System Manager's Manual lmfsetup(8)Name
lmfsetup - License Management Facility PAK registration script
Syntax
/etc/lmfsetup [ template ]
Description
The script allows you to register data supplied by a Product Authorization Key (PAK). The script prompts you for the data associated with
each of the fields on a PAK. When all the data has been entered, the License Management Facility (LMF) ensures there are entries against
all the mandatory fields, and that the Checksum validates all the license data. If the data has been entered correctly, the PAK is regis-
tered in the License Database. If the data has been entered incorrectly, the appropriate error message is displayed and you are given the
opportunity to re-enter the data.
The template option allows you to register license data from templates in A template containing a partially complete PAK is created by some
products as part of their installation process. The script only prompts you for data on the fields that are empty in the template. If the
script cannot find the specified template in it searches the current directory.
The script is provided as an alternative to the command. This displays a template, which includes the fields on the PAK, and invokes an
editor so that you can add the license data to the appropriate field. The command also allows errors to be corrected without having to re-
enter all the data.
