fdisk is meant to manage raw MSDOS partitions and related types, and has never done anything else. If you think it would be so easy to nail new and unrelated functionality onto the side, you're...

fdisk has been "depreciated" for decades and is open-source anyway; if people want it they'll get it. It's not going to die.

It does have limitations as you've stated of course, because the kind...

One Google and I came up with this post on www.linuxquestions.org which suggests that in Single User Mode you can only remove the password, not change it to a new value:

[SOLVED] passwd command...

I'd avoid opening up /bin/find to execute as root from an unprivleged account. Find can, thru the --exec option, run other commands which will also be run as root.

Your best bet here is to...

try with "sar" utility

sar - Collect, report, or save system activity information.

For a quick view, mpstat will give you individual CPUs. For monitoring, pinga123 is correct; sar is the answer unless you want to roll your own. I use a custom rrdtool script for my purposes.

This is a Linux thing, not a UNIX one, by the way.

Try ctrl-alt-f8. Do you get a blank screen? It wouldn't switch you to a terminal that doesn't exist, so a blank screen means you have an 8th...

If that's oracle VM server, then you should raise a ticket to oracle for help.

Try this:
watch -n 1 -d "netstat -i |grep vif"

In regular expression '.' stands for any character. So you are trying to grep one char or two chars.

Try:


echo $PATH|grep "\."

echo $PATH|grep "\.\."

u can also try this

echo $PATH | grep '.'

Please try with:
awk -v n=2 '/^NAME/{name++} name >= n'inputfile
NAME STATE CPU(sec) CPU(%)
XXX -----r 55567 4.5
XXX -----r 55567 0.5
XXX -----r 55567 0.4
XXX -----r 55567 8.0

If the script's output is re-directed to a file then..
awk 'NR>5' script_output > newfile
If it does not work out post sample lines of your code.

None of those are options the kernel understands; it depends on the init system. So that's distro specific and that article should've labelled it as such.

If you really, really need the system...

That is the Oracle rebadged version of RHEL5.2. boot logging is not available on that particular version. See http://kbase.redhat.com/faq/docs/DOC-9835.

Usually this is sufficient:chmod og-rwx .??*

Good catch


cd /root; ls -A | grep '^\.' | xargs chmod og-rwx

ls -ld $(IFS=:; printf "%s\n" $PATH)

ls -ld $(echo $PATH | awk -F ":" '{ print $1 "\n" $2 }')

That is why you should not be connected as root, and always use root privilege to its strictly minimum, when absolutely necessary...
In other words, unless you are bringing down the server for...

blank /etc/securetty if that is really what you want... but the usual practice is to keep root login only from console...

Just unlink the soft link, which you would be having for the X init, inside your default runlevel of /etc/init.d/rc5.d

This works pretty well but is considered a hard way of doing so.

Otherwise...

Simple: yum doesn't care about any subscription, as you can configure alternative update channels. It just can't see the contents of the official Red Hat repositories and thinks they are empty.
...

Do you have a subscription with Red Hat? If not, you won't have the required update channel available, and will have to try and install from the installation media using either yum or rpm.

Frame the find command, as u require.

find
