Server Can't Create Numeric Filenames

Aug 14, 2007

I have a server that has been running for a long time. Red Hat 7.3 (yes, I know that's old). Several ext3fs disks. For some reason I started getting odd failures. I finally found something that's wrong but I can't figure out why.

Here's the symptom: any attempt to create a directory or file name with a numeric name (digits only) fails. So:

touch 294 - fail
mkdir 399 - fail
touch x294 - ok
touch xydf - ok
The error is "no such file or directory".

This happens on all my ext3fs file systems, not just one. The kernel has been replaced with a known good one. No modules -- the kernel has everything built in. I've fsck'd the entire set of disks. A C program that directly calls SYS_open (not using the C library; using syscall) doesn't work either. The only thing that does work is debug2fs which seems to have no problem.

procfs seems to be able to have numeric directories (although that doesn't prove much).

Centos5 Cant Mkdir Numeric Directories

Dec 30, 2007

We have a weird issue on one of our centos 5 servers, running the 2.6.18-53.1.4.el5 kernel

for some reason we cant mkdir any directories that are numerically named

ie mkdir 5789 doesnt work

alpha and alpha numeric work fine... ie mkdir ab567a

Quote:

[root@]# mkdir 6
mkdir: cannot create directory `6': No such file or directory
[root@]# mkdir 6ab
[root@]#

Someone suggested the adore-ng rootkit was to blame but we have run ossec root check, rkhunter and chkrootkit and even run clamav over the drives and cant find anything nasty

Displaying Non English Filenames

May 3, 2007

basically it has to do with supporting filenames(or urls) in non English (Arabic) encoding in apache webserver....

I'm assuming that its apache that needs to be configured for this, i can't think of anything else except encoding support on the o/s too.....

funny thing is, i can upload and download non Arabic file names through ftp, and ftp displays them correctly, but they can't be accessed through a webbrowser.....

hmmmm, actually firefox can access them, it screws up the file name into funny signs but actually displays the file, I.E can't access them at all....

So, how can I enable Arabic language support on my webserver?

Variable Filenames By Date In Cron Jobs

Mar 12, 2008

How do you insert variables in cron jobs? e.g. the current date.

Let's say I want to back up a file and append the date to it.

0 0 * * * cp /some/file.txt /some/outputfile_[DATE].txt >/dev/null
(note that I'm not sure the cp will actually work like that, it's just an example)

Where outputfile_[DATE].txt has the date in it.

Are there variables cron can use for date, hour, minute, etc.?

Using Find Command With Regex To Find All Number-only Filenames

Oct 15, 2007

how can i do a search for all files (probs using regex) of files consisting purely of numbers?

for e.g. find:

53243.php
24353.php
24098.php

(always have 5 numbers).

seems one of my accounts has had some script run which generated a bunch of these in various subfolders, and the php file basically does a callback to www3.rssnews.ws and www3.xmldata.info, which seem to be some sort of spyware servers.

Server Mirroring To Create Separate DNS Locations

Nov 4, 2009

If anyone can help me in doing this, I'd appreciate it. I searched to see if anyone had already done this, but I didn't find anything so my apologies if this has been answered before.

Here's what I have: 1 dedicated server with a static ip of course and currently, I run all my sites off of this machine as well as my few clients. The server is running CentOS and Apache.

What I want to do is build a new server at my house/office and create a secondary webserver that mirrors my current setup. I've heard about using Rsync to do this, but I want to know if it'll allow for the balancing effect I'm looking for.

Rather than use this 2nd server as a backup only, I want also use it for dns resolution. Right now, all my sites are using two nameservers (NS1.2D.NET and NS2.2D.NET), but they both point to the same IP address at the same location. I want NS2.2D.NET to point to this 2nd server for redundancy (in case the other location goes down) and also for balancing (to spread traffic over two servers instead of just one).

Eventually what I'm going to do is move all my clients and websites to one location again, but my own location so I can save the expenses of dedicated hosting off-site. However, I want to use this setup as a test to see if my own location will be able to handle the traffic and such.
