mkdir limitations

What characters can't be used with a mkdir? Any limits on length of name? Thank you, Randy M. Zeitman http://www.StoneRoseDesign.com

2. UNIX for Dummies Questions & Answers

I am trying to use the csplit file on a file that contains records that have more than 2048 characters on a line. The resultant split file seems to ignore the rest of the line and I lose the data. Is there any way that csplit can handle record lengths greater than 2048? Thanks

Password limitations.

I would like to set my minimum password length to on Linux and AIX. However, doing this normally would only make it so newly added users will be affected by this. I would like for when I make this change, it either truncates everyone elses password, or prompts them to change it to 8+ characters....

Solaris 9 or 10 LUN Limitations

Is there a limit to the number of LUNS that can be concatenated using Solaris Volume manager with Soft partitions? I have worked with some AIX admins in the past and there was such a limitation therefore limiting the size the filesystem could grow to. Is there such a limitation in Solaris 9...

gnuplot limitations

I'm running a simulation (programmed in C) which makes calls to gnuplot periodically to plot data I have stored. First I open a pipe to gnuplot and set it to multiplot: FILE * pipe = popen("gnuplot", "w"); fprintf(pipe, "set multiplot\n"); fflush(pipe); (this pipe stays open until the...

Hi, I need a documentation about limitations on the linux partition. On how many primary and extended I could create. And also on different type of storage, how many big capacity I can create. Thanks.

perl limitations vs. bash?

I've building a bunch of bash scripts, and am thinking about "converting" to perl, and have a couple questions first: 1. Is there anything bash will do that perl won't? 2. How steep is the learning curve? 3. If perl's more powerful, why? 4. I've built a small app in python, which seemed nice,...

Limitations of tac/cat?

As part of a quiz assigned during my unix class I was asked to write a program to ask for a file name, print read errors, and "reverse elements in a list."

Solaris limitations

Hi, I recently started working with Solaris, and what I noticed is that a lot of commands I used to regularly use don't work, like sed -i and grep -r. I have found work arounds for these problems though but it's a pain in the ass. I'm just wondering why they decided not to include these handy...

miibus

MIIBUS(4)                                                  BSD Kernel Interfaces Manual                                                  MIIBUS(4)

NAME

     miibus -- IEEE 802.3 Media Independent Interface network bus

SYNOPSIS

     For most network interface cards (NIC):
     device miibus

DESCRIPTION

     The miibus driver provides an interconnection between the Media Access Control (MAC) sublayer, the Physical Layer entities (PHY), Station
     Management (STA) entities, and the PHY Layer as defined by the IEEE 802.3 Standard.

     The miibus layer allows network device drivers to share common support code for various external PHY devices.  Most 10/100 network interface
     cards either use an MII transceiver or have built-in transceivers that can be programmed using an MII interface.  The miibus driver currently
     handles all of the media detection, selection, and reporting using the ifmedia interface.  A generic driver has been included for all PHYs
     that are not handled by a specific driver, this is possible because all 10/100 PHYs implement the same general register set along with their
     vendor specific register set.

     The following network device drivers use the miibus interface:

COMPATIBILITY

     The implementation of miibus was originally intended to have similar API interfaces to BSD/OS 3.0 and NetBSD, but as a result are not well
     behaved newbus device drivers.
