Uploading 500MB Tar.gz File In Telnet


I am having trouble uploading a 500mb file with File Manager in the control panel as well as SmartFTP. I was told to upload this large file through Putty. I able able to login through SSH as root, but i can't seem to find the right directory to upload this file into. This file is a backup file of the home directory. I am transferring all files from my old host to my new host. How would I find the right directory and upload this file through Telnet.

/etc/xinetd.d/telnet Doesn't Exist To Disable Telnet
I decided to disable Telnet in my server. I get an Article ::

1. Login to your server through SSH and su to root.
2. Type pico /etc/xinetd.d/telnet
3. Look for the line: disable = no and replace with disable = yes
4. Now restart the inetd service: /etc/rc.d/init.d/xinetd restart
5. Turn off it through chkconfig as well because it can still start through that.
/sbin/chkconfig telnet off
6. Scan your server to ensure port 23 is closed.
nmap -sT -O localhost

Also run ps -aux | grep telnet and if you find anything other than "grep telnet" as result kill the process.


But /etc/xinetd.d/telnet doesn't exist in my server.

Un-tar Big File
un-tar big file - big head ache - any way to overcome?

I was un-tarring a file of 6.622gb, the un-tar size should be around 14.4gb I think, most of them are image files .jpg's

and its taking hell a lot of time and not to mention the breaks for un-specified time to process once again,

started decompress around 40-50mins earlier and still the process is on,,.....

using centos5 , ssh - root access

is any there any way I can overcome this problem in future, I can't afford to spend so much time on friends vps just to decompress files?

.tar.tgz File
I have a web site backup file (let's call it 'filename.tar.tgz') that was generated from a home-grown web hosting panel and is ~1.6GB in size. It is resident on a WinXP computer, but I also have it copied to a *nix machine.

I have attempted to restore the backup using the normal restore process provided by the site admin panel, but it will never complete because of the size of the file. So, I need to retrieve the folders/files from within the 'filename.tar.tgz' file so that I can re-upload the files/folders through normal FTP.

I have had no success extracting the files/folders when using tar, gtar, gunzip, etc on the Linux box. 7Zip won't open it either. The Linux terminal reports a 'stdin: not in gzip format' error when trying to decompress/extract the files.

What I need is the exact syntax (with any switches) that I can use in my Linux Terminal Shell for extracting this archive so that I can access the files within.

Username.tar.gz Are Not A Cpmove File
I'm moving some accounts from another provider wich don't allow users to make his owns backups, so I'm doing manually from the cpanel. The file I get it's something like username-date.tar.gz

The problem it's when I try to restore it in my server, I get "not user files found" because the .tar.gz file it's like

and inside the folders

And it looks like to have the restore working have to be:

/username
/and inside the folders

So, the solution I have for the moment it's to 1) create the account in the new server 2) restore it login in the cpanel

Move To Another Host With .Tar.Gz Backup File
I'm thinking about moving an account with one main domain and a bunch of addons from one cpanel host to another, using a whole site backup .tar.gz file. SSH does not appear to be an option at this point.

I just extracted the tar.gz to a local pc to get a look at what's in it. It has these 12 folders: bandwidth, cp, cron, dnszones, logs, meta, mysql, resellerconfig, userdata, va, vad, vf. Below these folders are also 14 unfoldered files, ranging from "addons" to "version."

So, will this work?

1. Does this mean the domains and all the addons will be set up with their original user names, passwords, and email accounts with all the same passwords, if I move everything to the right location? Will all the email accounts I've set up in my email client software work just as they do now with the current host?

2. How can I know where all these uploaded folders and files have to be moved once they're there?

3. Can I just upload the extracted contents to one location, or do I have to upload the unextracted tar.gz to a server, extract there, then move the contents wherever they need to be moved (but I don't know where things need to be moved now)?

I need to restore /viacache to the original location

Prevent PHP Files Used For File Uploading
It appears that some people like to take advantage of those files for online web applications such as Wordpress which have php files with permissions set to 777. They use those as a means of creating an upload file. The upload files that they create then have access to the whole server somehow... Is there anyway of preventing this from happening?

UK Web Hosting 500MB Space 1GB Bandwidth Existing .org.uk Domain
I'm the webmaster for a church website: stpetersbraunstone.org.uk and our domain & hosting renewal is coming up, so I'm looking to see if there's a better deal.

We're with namehog.net (and have been for 2 years with no problems at all) on their Professional package. The renewal fees are 105GBP (web hosting) + 5.90GBP (domain name) + 17.5pc VAT to cover the next 2 years, which comes to 130.31GBP.

The site is powered by WordPress, so PHP and MySQL are needed. And we upload lots of photos, so need at least 250MB webspace I'd have thought. So far, our highest monthly bandwidth usage has been under 800Mb, and our visitor numbers are increasing and our highest monthly figure so far was 401.

Any recommendations gratefully received. There seems to be many different companies out there who offer what I want, so I'm after some personal recommendations please.

I've already used this site to discount streamline.net due to bad reviews.
I'm looking at fuzioned.com and redfoxhosting.co.uk - any thoughts?
I've also come across no-wires.co.uk - has anyone had any good or bad experiences with them?

And yes, I have submitted my details to the "request quote" thing.

Tar
I’m sure most people have made a similar mistake (I have, one too many times). The issue with tar is that if you happened to accidentally flip the filenames:

# tar -czf 06-21-2007.log 06-21-2007.log.tgz
tar: 06-21-2007.log.tgz: Cannot stat: No such file or directory
tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors

You can say goodbye to your log file (or mine, in this case). This is frustrating because tar caught the error, yet still proceeded to try to create the archive!

This is GNU Tar (RedHat). Obviously I should be more careful, but are there any solutions to prevent this?

How Do Install A Local Copy Of TAR ?
wasn't sure if this should go into "technical" or "programming" but I figure someone here will instantly be able to tell me...

(details: I'm on a shared host with cpanel and centos 3)

My hosting service techs refuse to update gnu TAR on the server even though it's several years old at 1.13 and has some know bugs that are annoying for complex calls - (basically the techs use any request like this to try to upsell me to dedicated or VPS which I don't need at my low level)

So I'd like to install a "local" copy of the newer gnu 1.14 or 1.15 TAR (which I *think* is possible?) into my account and have it run instead of the shared copy?

Unfortunately this is beyond my knowledge so thanks for any help in the right direction...

Then i rebooted the server again and again not knowing what to do and it logged me into single mode user and scan for me.

Right now. I believe my hard disk had crashed or my system file is just a big mess error. I couldn't get the server to online.

Uploading Files
I've just uploaded my website files onto the server, the website is working fine, but I'm not sure my files are 'arranged' right. I uploaded my images in a folder, but all the rest of the files are 'loose' along with the index file. If I go to either of my domain names, the website appears, which is ok for now, but I only really intended it to under one domain name, so there may be problems if I want another site up there. I think my files should be in a folder. Is this right? Should the index file be in the same folder, or should it be outside the folder with the links changed accordingly. I've been emailing my hosting service, and they 've been trying to help, but I feel a bit thick because I don't really understand what they're saying. Could someone tell me in very plain english how the files should be arranged?

Instead, I received the following error:

s1111 was the first direstory starting with s.

Reading LTO-3 Tape SLOW With TAR
I have a DELL LTO-4 Drive, which is brand new, less than 2 weeks old.

I am trying to read an LTO-3 Tape, using TAR, and saving it to a USB harddrive.

The first time i read the tape i filled a 200GB usb harddrive overnight, and now im trying to read the tape again (because we originally thought there was only 172GB on the tape).

The problem now is, im using the exact same command to extract the tape but its going painfully slow. For example, over a 12 hour period it extracted 1.1GB

What could have caused this huge slow down.

Even if i just list the contents of the archive.... it still reads slow, so its not the device its saving too thats slow.

im using just tar -xf <tape device> to extract and tar -tvf <tape device> to list the contents... both take ages to read something though should be read in a few seconds.

The tape drive reads the first 3MB within 1/2 a second... then i hear the tape mech slow down.

This is using a mandriva livecd since the only machine which has this tape drive connected is our windows 2003 server (tape drive is on a SAS Controller which none of our linux machines have).

What could have possibly caused this slowdown if im using the same tape drive, tape, controllers & livecd and what could i do to speed this process up, as i need to read this tape within 12 hours while the server is not being used.

A website I am involved with may soon hit a problem due image uploading being stored on only one server. We are unable to find a realistic solution which would allow us to upload images from 1 central location.

The website is programmed in PHP and is on a standalone web-server - currently the images are uploaded to the same directory as the website however we are looking to move the images to another server for scalability.

Is it possible at all to upload using a directory link of some kind, eg, the directory would be /serverip/path/to/images which you would upload to? Or any other realistic approaches that you know off.

FTP Uploading Corrupt
The Details:

XP Home, Verizon DSL, AVG, ZoneAlarm, CoffeeCup FTP, FileZilla FTP

So this all started about 5 days ago and I cannot think of anything that I did to associate this issue with. I'm very computer savvy and no one else uses this computer except for me (to help move things along faster). Essentially what happens when I start CoffeeCup FTP or FileZilla FTP (testing to make sure it wasn't just a problem with CoffeeCup FTP) and try to upload image files it fails, not the upload itself.. but somehow the image files are corrupt (no they're not CMYK, they're RGB). So it shows the file on my server, correct size, no error messages. However, when I go to the image URL it just shows the image URL where the image should be. I then restart CoffeeCup FTP and everything uploads properly. I've checked the lines on DSLReports.com, I've checked ZoneAlarm to make sure that I didn't somehow accidentally click no to something (which is unlikely). I keep my computer very clean and very organized and very up to date so it would be more helpful to me if someone could share some ideas of something that could happen that's not of my control. Could this possibly have anything to do with SP3 (the only thing I can recall being a change on my computer).

Uploading To Htdocs -> Err...
I've been using a Fedora Core 6 box to develop my site with PHP and MySQL. The web directory is /var/www/html.

I just recently bought my first hosting plan, and it says to upload my site to the Htdocs folder.

Is this a BSD server? I know nothing about BSD, and I'm worried, because I don't know if my site is going to need to be re-written. You see, some of my files, like the db connection script, are in /var/www/myfoldername ... Is there an equivalent on my new rented server, where I can put these files?

How about my databases? When I run the installer I wrote to create them, it just creates them, and FC6 has been doing what it will with them to get them working. Am I going to have issues connecting, because they're stored in a different dir?
