How do I Move Files & Sub directory without changing Chown & Chmod them?
Situation:
I need to move /home/user/public_html/blog (all files & subdir) into /home/user/public_html
I have just restored an account to my directadmin box and it appears to have restored with the wrong owner / group.
Easy I thought, a quick 'chmod secure.secure -R *' should crack that but how wrong was I.
After running that I get the error: chown: invalid option -- o
Now - both the user and the group exist, so why won't the files change owner and group?
On one of my servers i can't CHMOD 777 Files, but i can CHMOD 777 Folders.
Files are chmod 777 but on scripts installation... It's Said Please Chmod Example.php to 777

PHP 5
Apache 2.2.3
I just moved my folder_A from computer A to computer B, what is the command to change the permission of owner, access, group for every files in that folder_A at 1 time?
in the folder_A has hundred of files. Let's say , i want to change owner = laptop, access = read and write, group = user, access = read and write , what is the specific command to do that for all the files in folder_A at 1 time?
i download a script .. when i unzip the script .. all the folder have chmod to 700 + 600
what command could let the folders and sub folders have chmod to 755 ( as root )
i command this
chmod 755 *
but the folders inside the folder didn't chmod to 755
there is alot folders thats why its hard to do it manually :p
I have access to the DNS Zone where the accounts are currently hosted and I would like to change these so it a quick change over from old host to new host.
Do I change the Minimum TTL which is currently 86400?
Do I change the TTL for each A record which are currently 14400?
Do I change the nameservers in the DNS record from what they are now to the new host nameservers?
On my previous server and on some other hosts, I was able to write to files (for example with PHP) without having to chmod the files first.
Now I cannot, and files are required to be chmoded properly so I can write to them.
I cannot even touch() a file with PHP.
Is there any way to have this permissions removed?
I don't want to chmod the all thing, all I want is to change the configurations so I can fwrite() or file_put_contents() normally.
I's a dedicated un-managed server, so basically any advanced configurations can be done.
how can i change db files attributes (CHMOD ) using SSH?

i tried del c: emp*.*
but that didn't work and if i try rmdir c emp, it removed c: emp directory or maybe i'm not looking hard enough.
basically i want to copy a folder with many subdirectory under it, zip it up the folder and delete all the subfolder and the files in the subfolder but not the parent folder where it store all temp data.
i already got xcopy and zipping work but i can't seem to figure out how to remove all the folder inside the parent folder without deleting the parent folder.
i'm creating a batch file to run this task.
i have a few directorys on my server which have something in the region of 200+ subdirectorys containing 1 or 2 files. im wondering if anyone knows how to move all the files in the subdirs into the main directory without me going into each folder and doing it by hand

What is the command to change the permissions for all files contained within the same directory? I have about 100k files
located here:
/mysite.com/files/
I need to chmod all files located within the /files/ directory to 666.
What is the command for this via ssh?
For those of you who are techies you will probably laugh, but to me this is like Greek and scarey
The deal is that I blog for PayPerPost and after they implemented Real Rank only my main blog was able to be monitored for RR. I have 4 other blogs in the system that I can't take any assignments on because they have no real rank. The reason they don't is that the URLs are all the same as the first blog, except that the other 4 have "blog1, blog2, etc., at the end of their address.
SO I went into my hosting control panel of Yahoo and created subdomains for each of the four, reversing the address from internetmarketingreview.org/blog1 to blog1.internetmarketingreview. org. (I thought I was pretty smart to do even that!)
Now you can see my blogs at the addresses. I was really happy, that is until I realized that the permalinks won't work! Of course they won't. Nothing has been done but cosmetic changes. I am just now understanding that somewhere I am missing a step, I have been researching this and I believe I need to move some files, but I am afraid of screwing things up.
I went to the Wordpress forum and found a permalink plugin from Yahoo, but I don't know if installing that will solve my problem. I have a pretty good idea that no, it won't. That too is about cosmetics, right?
I have some 100's of MB's to move and I'm definitely not doing it by transferring it via my PC / FTP.
I seen all the tutorials on how to move your MySQL databases, but what about full folders etc, how do I move those (putty?)?
We have three virtual hosts on our Apache 2.2 installation on Windows Server 2003. For some reason, I'm unable to open log files (error.log and each virtual hosts-specific log), even though I have full administrator rights. (The log folder is full access to admins.) Every time I try to open the file or even copy it to another location, it just says "Access Denied." I temporarily solved the issue for one of the logs by adding BufferedLogs On

View 6 Replies View RelatedI'm currently running SAMBA on one my linux servers, and wanting to connect to it from another linux server.
1. Do I need to install SAMBA on the connecting server (client-side)?
2. I can see/mount the SAMBA folder just fine, I can delete,make,etc. The only thing I can't do on the client side is change ownership of a file or folder... even if I'm logged in as root.
I have a lot of tables, being that I host multi forums. One thing I noticed when doing a mysql start up or restart is that it takes at least 15 minutes to do it. The server isn't bad, it's a Pentium D with 3GB of RAM and it runs perfectly fine. What I noticed is that after I do an SQL restart, I checked "top." The command that was running is "chown" and it sat at the top of the list, and kept going. Until finally mysql started and it stopped.
I imagine that all of the files in the data folder are being CHOWNed... and that's why it takes forever. If this is the case, how can I stop this, if at all? I don't see why they need to be CHOWNed?
I want to move around 20Gb of files from one shared hosting account with custom contraol panel to a cpanel VPS.
Is there anyway of transferring all the files to new host without downloading and uploading to the new host. Coz i have normal DSL and 20 GB downloading and uploading can take years.
There are some forum files CHMOD to specific values if you can transfer them without resetting them in new host also cool.
both servers have SSH and FTP
I've just moved from a reseller account with ResellerZoom, so a VPS with SolarVPS.
When I was with RZ all my scripts could write to folder with the 755 permissions. On the vps I have to alter the folder I want the script to write to to be 777.
Which the is best and most secure?
I think I understand that if a folder is 777 then anyone on the server can write to that folder. So I assume some sort of thing that stops users being able to access folders outside of their own folders is needed? is that right?
I have a server running php 5.2.4 with CGI as Server API and suexec, but I cant create dirs in php with chmod 755. When I use mkdir("/home/user/public_html/$dirname", 0755); it creates the dir with chmod 744. Why?
I can change later this chmod to 755 in php with the chmod function. But why my server doesnt allow the directory to be created as 755? Where can I configure it?

I am trying to learn a little and i pefer using my browser to edit files rather then a ftp client.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI know you're not supposed to use 777 but it seems some scripts just simply won't work without it, what steps needs to be taken to avoid using 777?
as far as i understand we're only supposed to use 775 for folders and 644 for files correct?
