Yes, I'm always getting confused whether to use /dev/null or /dev/zero, because most of the *nix flavors I use, have both.
Code:
if [[ ${#NUM} -ge 0 ]] &2>/dev/null
Yes, this might be unususal, but it helps to avoid parsing errors -> well the visual breakup <- when 'catching' arrow keys (NOT specificly).
Are you refering to the other '^[[' line just above - which is commented out, or to the '[a-zA-Z]' grep to be changed to ~=?
But basicly, neither of those lines are 'now' executed, because it's 'all' left out anyway - to my understanding - the only reason it's still there, is because I just had it rewritten it compared to the initial post (before sleeping).
Code:
else
# It's not a number, catch other cases
continue
# Actualy, all checks below are (can be) left out....
We have requirments to not allow a userid login abilities but allow users to 'su' to it. In solaris I normally set the shell in /etc/passwd to bin/false. THis does not work on Linux, any suggestions would help. (1 Reply)

mem
MEM(4) Linux Programmer's Manual MEM(4)NAME
mem, kmem, port - system memory, kernel memory and system ports
DESCRIPTION
/dev/mem is a character device file that is an image of the main memory of the computer. It may be used, for example, to examine (and even
patch) the system.
Byte addresses in /dev/mem are interpreted as physical memory addresses. References to nonexistent locations cause errors to be returned.
Examining and patching is likely to lead to unexpected results when read-only or write-only bits are present.
Since Linux 2.6.26, and depending on the architecture, the CONFIG_STRICT_DEVMEM kernel configuration option limits the areas which can be
accessed through this file. For example: on x86, RAM access is not allowed but accessing memory-mapped PCI regions is.
It is typically created by:
mknod -m 660 /dev/mem c 1 1
chown root:kmem /dev/mem
The file /dev/kmem is the same as /dev/mem, except that the kernel virtual memory rather than physical memory is accessed. Since Linux
2.6.26, this file is available only if the CONFIG_DEVKMEM kernel configuration option is enabled.
It is typically created by:
mknod -m 640 /dev/kmem c 1 2
chown root:kmem /dev/kmem
/dev/port is similar to /dev/mem, but the I/O ports are accessed.
It is typically created by:
mknod -m 660 /dev/port c 1 4
chown root:kmem /dev/port
FILES
