[BackupPC-users] User Permissions

2008-09-17 Thread Dejan Batic
Hi,

 

I restored some files, well a bunch of them but in the process user's
permissions got mixed up.

 

Now, how can I apply chmod o+x only to folders? 

 

I want other users to be able to open folders without putting x bit to all
the files.

 

BTW, I posted the question about filtering file extensions using rsyncd, but
I got no reply. Should I assume that it's not possible to do that?

 

Thanks

 

 

Dejan

Just use find to locate directories and make them executable:

$ find /path/to/dir -type d -exec chmod +x {} \;

 Just use find to locate directories and make them executable:
 
 $ find /path/to/dir -type d -exec chmod +x {} \;

or if you don't want to exec a chmod for each directory,

find /path/to/dir -type d -print | xargs chmod o+x

(and it's o+x if you only want o+x ;-).

Alternatively, if you want to give others access to all files too, it's
simply

chmod -R o=u,o-w /path/to/dir

(that's copy permissions from user to others, then take away write permission
for others).

Regards,
Holger

Hi,
i'm not sure, but i think this should work even with rsync XferMethod:

simply add chmod option to  ${RsyncRestoreArgs} directive in your
machine specific
host configuration. U can choose to modify the permission of directory
or files with
'D' or 'F' flags before permission-type.
For example:

 --chmod=Dg+s,ug+w,Fo-w,+X


Hope this help, and (as usual) sorry for my bad english.

Bye,
Veon.

use chmod o+X  (note the upper-case X).

This will add 'x' permissions to directories only.

[BackupPC-users] User Permissions

2007-08-16 Thread Hendrik Friedel
Hello,

I've now several times tried to install backuppc, but I always failed. 
Now I tried the backuppc-3 ebuild for gentoo, with the vhosts use flag set.
I'm a bit surprised, that I can reach, the CGI Script from localhost:80
(wich then leads to this error:

Permission denied: exec of '/var/www/localhost/cgi-bin/BackupPC_Admin'
failed 
You are probably familiar with this error.

Doesn't vhost mean, that it should install on a different port, as 8080 for
instance??

Anyway, I went through the faq and it suggests to run Backuppc as the
backuppc user and as the www-servers user (which *I think* is apache):
vdr01 ~ # su backuppc
[EMAIL PROTECTED] /root $ /var/www/localhost/cgi-bin/BackupPC_Admin
bash: /var/www/localhost/cgi-bin/BackupPC_Admin: Permission denied
[EMAIL PROTECTED] /root $ exit
exit
vdr01 ~ # su apache
vdr01 ~ # /var/www/localhost/cgi-bin/BackupPC_Admin
Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8

!doctype html public -//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN
htmlhead
titleBackupPC: Error/title
link rel=stylesheet type=text/css
href=/backuppc/image/BackupPC_stnd.css title=CSSFile
meta http-equiv=pragma content=no-cache
/headbody
onLoad=document.getElementById('NavMenu').style.height=document.body.scroll

a href=http://backuppc.sourceforge.net;img
src=/backuppc/image/logo.gif hspace=5 vspace=7 border=0/abr
div id=Content
div class=h1Error: Wrong user: my userid is 0, instead of 107(backuppc)
/div

I must note that su apache does not seem to do anything.

Do I have to set additional use flags? Do you have any other suggestionst?
I'm out of Ideas. I've really been trying hard to get backuppc installed,
and I've given up several times. But it just seems like the perfect app for
me.

Greetings,
Hendrik

Are you installing from a package or from source?

don't install things from source on production servers. :) (for a large
number of reasons I won't go into here).

I there are some backuppc RPM packages out there; use those. that should set
up your permissions correctly; and it'll make upgrades a *lot* easier in the
future.

Let's keep this discussion on the mailing list, so other people can benefit
from it. :)

I had a problem on a CentOS 4 server when running cgi on Apache (trying 
to configure a MoinMoin wiki).  SELinux turned out to be the culprit.
