We cannot add or delete users by default so we have to do below changes in LDAP module in GUI mode only. Configuring the module The most complex part of using this module is configuring it to talk to your LDAP server. By default, it will attempt to auto-detect the settings by looking at the LDAP client settings on your system, documented on the LDAPClient page. However, if this fails (perhaps because the LDAP server is not one of its own clients), you will need to configure the module manually as follows : On the module's main page, click on the Module Config link. In the LDAP server host field, enter the hostname of your LDAP server. If it is running on the same machine, enter localhost. If the LDAP server is using encryption, change the LDAP server uses TLS? option to Yes. In the Bind to LDAP server as field, enter the full DN of the administrative user for your LDAP server. This might be something like cn=Manager,dc=my-domain,dc=com. In the Credentials for bind name above field,...

mkfs.ext3: inode_size (128) * inodes_count (0) too big for After you ran sudo fdisk /dev/sdb1 , and deleted the existing partitions by hitting the d key and creating a new one by hitting n, did you choose 'p' (primary) or 'e' (extended). If you chose 'e', re-run the command and choose 'p' instead. That should solve your problem.

Here i am sharing a few tricks 1. {} used to run commands in current shell 2. () use single quotes to execute commands in subshell ( cd /var/run/mysqld/ && rm -rf mysqld.pid ) && /etc/init.d/mysqld & It will change dir to /var/lib/mysql if its successful it will remove mysql pid file and now if exit status of that whole is 0 it will start mysql 3. {} use curly brackets to enclose a variable to avoid any errors. 4 ulimit -a list all the limit restrictions in current shell We can always change these limits both hard and soft in /etc/security/limit.conf file 5.

Here i am going to explain a little bit about screen utility. And i am sure , you will definitely like to explore other options of it. Screen is basically a way to share your command prompt, i.e once you are in a screen session you will all able to see what other is doing on his console as well as others can see what you are typing or doing on your console in real time. #screen -S india here india is a symboic name to the screen session you can give yours own. #screen -x india to connect with same screen session Note:- user name with which you are logged in should be same of all who want to connect with screen session. #screen -t indian you can given your own title to your screen session. #screen -d india to detach from screen session without closing screen session There are so many features which you can explore using screen --help or man screen #screen -r india to reconnect to same session

$ ls -A .bash_history .bash_logout .bash_profile .bashrc archive check-orders.sh orders.txt The filenames can be printed in color to show the kind of file they are.The colors are defined in a file /etc/DIR_COLORS.You can customize the colors using a .dir_colors file in your own directory.The format of the file is described in the /etc/DIR_COLORS file. To display the files without color and with symbols instead, use the --color and --classify (or -F) switches. (On most Linux distributions, this feature is turned on using aliases.) $ ls --color=never --classify archive/ check-orders.sh* orders.txt The –classify symbols are directories (/), programs (*), symbolic links (@), pipes (|), and Unix domain socket files (=).These symbols are not a part of the name:They are hints as to the type of file. In this example, archive is a directory and check-orders.sh is a program. Another very important switch is --hide-control-chars (or -q). Linux filenames can contain any character, even control cha...

We can extract our tar archived file to our required destination with using copy and all in single shot. cd /to/where/archived/file.gz tar -xzf filename.gz -C /destnation/dir/ ; cd /destination/dir/ it will extract the file in the path given like /destination/dir/ and cd will change your dir to that dir. e.g cd Downloads tar -xzf zabbix-2.6.gz -C /opt/ ; cd /opt/zabbix-2.6/ pwd /opt/zabbix-2.6
