http://unix.stackexchange.com – I am getting an error- "Unknown file type 'A', extracted as normal file" while un-taring a set of files which has acl permissions set. I had created the tar file in solaris as tar -cpfv Tarfilename.tar directory if I un-tar as tar xvpf Tarfilename.tar, it works great in solaris I had copied the tar file to Linux and tried to unatr using tar xvpf, it throws the warning Unknown file type 'A', extracted as normal file and created files without ACL permissions. tar --version : tar (GNU tar) 1.15.1 in Linux (HowTos)

Hi All,

I have an ftp process that is connecting to a Solaris server and pushing files into a directory. The default file permissions are rw-r--r-- . I want the file permissions to be rw-rw-r--. How can I configure the directory so any file created there will have the permissions rw-rw-r-- ?

Thanks

*Note the permissions on the directory are drwxrwxr-x

I am trying to run the jar file on linux created from windows using jdk7 . I am using the following command to run the

java -jar jarfile.jar

its running the jar and throwing the exception as un recognised class format version. because linux is showing the java version as 1.4.2 while i have extracted the jdk1.7 in the root directory but it is still taking the java version as 1.4.2 .

I have a directory on a Solaris box that has 58 files written to it every 15min. They have a non standard date as part of the file name but always have another name with it. I need to check that directory for files created within the last 15min and then port the results to a log file. There are thousands of files but should only be and up to 58 within the last 15min.

I'm trying to port some code over from a Solaris box onto a Linux (specifically Redhat) box.

This is NOT your standard "how do permissions work" question!

I'm thinking the answer will probably involve ACL, but I don't know how exactly.

I've messed around with standard permissions, guid, sticky bit, etc. Doesn't work.

What I want: User will upload files. User will have ability to change permissions on files to allow execution.

TLDR version: Given a normal use of fileserver.conf, how do I build a puppet URL that will actually work?

.

I'm trying to get started with Puppet and a few virtual instances. For a first task, I'm trying to distribute an authorized_keys file using the file type.
