  • Change default root user with a new one on Ubuntu Server

    - by MultiformeIngegno
    I have a VPS, until now I used the default root user for SSH access and everything. For security reasons I'd like to use a different user for root, terminal access and sudo operations. So I created another user, gave him the sudo and every other perm. The problem is that all the system files belongs to root. What happens if I set PermitRootLogin No for root? Those files wouldn't be editable by the new root user!

  • Linux: how to restore config file using apt-get/aptitude?

    - by o_O Tync
    I've occasionally lost my config file "/etc/mysql/my.cnf", and want to restore it. The file belongs to package mysql-common which is needed for some vital functionality so I can't just purge && install it: the dependencies would be also uninstalled (or if I can ignore them temporarily, they won't be working). Is there a way to restore the config file from a package without un-ar-ing the package file? dpkg-reconfigure mysql-common did not restore it.

  • Trunking at Router Port

    - by singh
    After reading a bit about interVLAN routing got a doubt regarding how trunking takes place at router and at switch.In case of switch we configure a port interface as trunk port and say all vlan's are allowed here but in case of router we configure sub interface as trunk saying particular vlan belongs to particular subinterface .Can't we configure only a single port interface on router just like Switch and say all vlan's are allowed here on this interface ,why to go for sub interfaces? Hope I'm able to put my question in right way.

  • Running shell scripts with sudo through my Rails app

    - by nfm
    In my Rails app, I have some functionality that interfaces with the server's OS. I've written a bash script, put it in my lib/ subdirectory, and can run it from my controller. However, some functionality of the script requires superuser privileges. What is the most sane way to run this script securely? It is being passed arguments from a web form, but should only be able to be called by authenticated (and trusted) users.

  • Showing bug count or CI build on a TV in the office

    - by Matt Frear
    I recently saw a blog post showing off different displays that some software development shops use for showing their bug count or CI build status on a nice TV in the office. I can't for the life of me find it now, and I can't find it on google either. Anyone know what I'm talking about? (I don't think this belongs on superuser or serverfault either) -Matt

  • Programatically change cursor speed in windows

    - by Juan Manuel Formoso
    Since getting a satisfactory answer on SuperUser is very difficult, I want to rephrase this question and ask: Is there any way to programatically detect a mouse was plugged in the usb port, and change the cursor speed in windows (perhaps through an API)? I'd like to use C#, but I'm open to any language that can run on a windows 7 machine.

  • iPhone apps for company-internal use - possible?

    - by Michael Stum
    I hope this is still programming related, as SuperUser doesn't seem the appropriate place. Basically I wonder if it is possible to have Applications that are internal to a company on the iPhone? That is something like a companion Application to an Intranet (when Safari and Mail just don't cut it) which wouldn't make sense on the AppStore (and likely wouldn't get approved anyway). Is something like that possible (without Jailbreaking or doing anything else that Apple doesn't normally want)?

  • Overriding SetThreadExecutionState

    - by unixman83
    I am not sure if this belongs on serverfault or superuser. I would like to override SetThreadExecutionState(ES_DISPLAY_REQUIRED) to be a no-op. How is this accomplished? Is there some registry setting that can be altered instead of API hooking? Blocking ES_DISPLAY_REQUIRED will prevent apps from keeping the monitor powered on. I have an application (likely the antivirus) that is preventing some monitors from entering power-save and I think this function is the culprit.

  • What's the non brute force way to filter a Python dictionary?

    - by Thierry Lam
    I can filter the following dictionary like: data = { 1: {'name': 'stackoverflow', 'traffic': 'high'}, 2: {'name': 'serverfault', 'traffic': 'low'}, 3: {'name': 'superuser', 'traffic': 'low'}, 4: {'name': 'mathoverflow', 'traffic': 'low'}, } traffic = 'low' for k, v in data.items(): if v['traffic'] == traffic: print k, v Is there an alternate way to do the above filtering?

  • How do you check the presence of many keys in a Python dictinary?

    - by Thierry Lam
    I have the following dictionary: sites = { 'stackoverflow': 1, 'superuser': 2, 'meta': 3, 'serverfault': 4, 'mathoverflow': 5 } To check if there are more than one key available in the above dictionary, I will do something like: 'stackoverflow' in sites and 'serverfault' in sites The above is maintainable with only 2 key lookups. Is there a better way to handle checking a large number of keys in a very big dictionary?

  • spell checker: ignore CamelCaseWords

    - by David Oneill
    Is there a way to get the spell checker to properly check camel cased words? "ThisIsSpelledRightly" would be marked as spelled correctly, but "ThisIsNottSpeledRihgt" would be flagged? I use Xubuntu and firefox. I tried asking this over on superuser, but it got ignored.
