I believe the files that are created have owner of apache:apache with 755 perms, I think. One thing you might be able to do, set the perms on the parent directory to rwxrws--x Files and subdirs below the parent will inherit the parent's perms. Then you can put apache into the same group that...

You can define DHCP or static addresses in the ks file - it does not have to be a %post script. If you don't like Network Manager, don't install dns-masq either.

If you have a later OpenSSH version, you can configure sftp jailed accounts. No ssh, will not even give the indication it is available. You can define by group to use the sftp-server. And you will make a change in the sshd_config file to use the newer sftp-server. Lots of posts out there, won't...

If I was remote, then yes, I would be running the script locally on the receiving system. (Why is that question even coming up? Even if the system was located overseas I still have to put the script on that system.) The analysts grab a copy and perform their tasks in providing support to...

I don't need to do anything with them. The info contained in the files are related to product support. By segrating it is keeping the subdirectories at a limit of too many files. From my point of view, it is primarily organizational and efficiency. The analysts need to read access to the...

Hi all: perl 5.8.8 on RH5.3 64 bit. Have hundreds of thousands of files whose filenames are generated by the Oracle SR module. The task is to move the files into a subdirectory structure based on the SR number. Example; the subdirectory tree looks like...
