Re: [CentOS] OT? File order on CentOS/Samba server -- SOLVED (kind of...)
Hi, You might want to try to look into the Distiller side of things. That's what I always did. I am a DTP guy. 1) I believe you are using Rundirex.txt file to convert all the .ps's into one .pdf. This page from Adobe confirms that it will take the files in directory order under Windows: http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=318674 -- Acrobat Distiller for Windows will process the files in the order in which you put them into the folder and create the PDF pages in the order in which it processes the files. -- Acrobat Distiller for Mac OS will process the files in alphabetical order. (one solution would be getting a mac, hehehe). Strange that you never hit the wrong order problem before, since according to that page, you should... Regardless of what that paper says, Distiller has ALWAYS processed the files in alphabetical order under Windows. I have been doing so since 2000 and Acrobat Distiller 4. We are now at 9. I refer, of course, to the use of rundirx. 2) That page also talks about Runfilex.ps file, which is basically the same, only you have to list each .ps file in the order you want them to be included. I already addressed that on my first post. I tried runfilex.ps but then Distiller takes 30 to 40 minutes to do the same job that it now does in 3 to 4 minutes, which really is not an option for a newspaper at closing time. I will do some more experiences, from the Distiller side and the Linux side, and I will report here.

Re: [CentOS] OT? File order on CentOS/Samba server
You don't necessarily have to wait to see what the Distiller would do. ls -U shows the files unsorted, in the directory order, that is probably the order in which the Distiller is using them. Yes, Distiller uses the directory order. I made an experience at home. I copied 10 files by hand, one by one, from Windows to a CentOS machine. Copy order F08C.ps F06C.ps F03C.ps F05C.ps F10C.ps F02C.ps F07C.ps F04C.ps F01C.ps F09C.ps I obtained the following results. EXT3 inode numbers (manually sorted here) match the copy order --- 6998658 F08C.ps 6998659 F06C.ps 6998660 F03C.ps 6998661 F05C.ps 6998662 F10C.ps 6998663 F02C.ps 6998664 F07C.ps 6998665 F04C.ps 6998666 F01C.ps 6998667 F09C.ps EXT3 Directory Order (ls -U1) F04C.ps F02C.ps F03C.ps F05C.ps F09C.ps F08C.ps F10C.ps F07C.ps F01C.ps F06C.ps Distiller Order matches Directory order - F04C.ps F02C.ps F03C.ps F05C.ps F09C.ps F08C.ps F10C.ps F07C.ps F01C.ps F06C.ps I see that the directory order does not match the inode order (which is the same as the copy order).

Re: [CentOS] OT? File order on CentOS/Samba server -- FINALLY SOLVED!
Rebooted with sync on that filesystem. Copied the files again to a newly created dir, etc. The results are the same. Why doesn't the directory order reflect the inode order? Because of dir_index! I just turned dir_index OFF with tune2fs. Now the directory order is the same as the inode order. This makes the order of files predictable and in fact turns out to solve my problem. With dir_index turned OFF on that filesystem, when a copy is made to another directory (even from Windows on a Samba share) the alphanumeric order is preserved. I will just ask the workstation operators to copy the PS files to a new folder when they are all ready. Distiller is watching that folder and will process the files in the normal way, using the rundirex file. This solution is even better than the initial situation: since we can now predict the order in which the pages will be processed, we can manipulate the order at will by doing multi-phased copies to the folder, in any order we want, instead of being limited to the alphanumeric one provided by NTFS :-) So dir_index ON (and my ignorance of the inner workings of EXT3) was to blame for this confusion, from the beginning!

I just measured the process as folllows, for the same set of files, corresponding to a 32 page publication in A3 format: rundirex: 3m42s runfilex: 1h29m54s Wikipedia code: 1h14m55s That is really weird, since it's only sorting a list before starting the processing, but once the processing is started, it does exactly the same in both cases (the only difference is that in one case filenameforall is used and in the other case forall is used over an array with the sorted list of files). Do you have a support contract with Adobe? If you do, I think you should bring up this issue with them and try to figure out where the huge performance difference is coming from, since it should not. I suppose I will end up creating a FAT32 partition on the server just for this purpose. and: I just turned dir_index OFF with tune2fs. Now the directory order is the same as the inode order. This makes the order of files predictable and in fact turns out to solve my problem. With dir_index turned OFF on that filesystem, when a copy is made to another directory (even from Windows on a Samba share) the alphanumeric order is preserved. I will just ask the workstation operators to copy the PS files to a new folder when they are all ready. Distiller is watching that folder and will process the files in the normal way, using the rundirex file. I don't think turning dir_index off will make the order as predictable as you want it. It may be a good enough work around for now, but it might lead to strange problems in the future that you may end up having to deal with again. I would really advise you to investigate why when you list the files in the order you want in the input file it takes so long. Boa Sorte!

[CentOS] replacing a line in a file
I have a large file that has a line like: bindaddr=0.0.0.0 ; some other text I want to replace the 0.0.0.0 with my address 192.168.1.8 and remove everything else on the line to get: bindaddr=192.168.1.8 How can I do that? Thanks, jerry ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

Thanks, jerry I finally found a way to do it with sed. Which is what I tried first but I did not have the . before the $ sed s/bindaddr=.*/bindaddr=192.168.1.8/ sorry to have taken tracffic.

If you want to do it from the commandline without having to use an interactive text editor, you could do it this way (note this is UNTESTED): sed -e s/^bindaddr=0\.0\.0\.0.*$/bindaddr=192\.168\.1\.8/ filename Note the backslashes to turn the dots into literal dots, not the regexp character that it would be without the backslash. also note the single instance of a dot without a leading backslash, because that is intended to be a regexp. OK, now it's tested. given this input file: bindaddr=1.0.0.0 ; some other text bindaddr=2.0.0.0 ; some other text bindaddr=0.0.0.0 ; some other text bindaddr=3.0.0.0 ; some other text applying the command above produces: bindaddr=1.0.0.0 ; some other text bindaddr=2.0.0.0 ; some other text bindaddr=192.168.1.8 bindaddr=3.0.0.0 ; some other text Other people would come up with something in AWK, or Perl or Ruby or PHP or insert language du jour here. I suppose someone with time on his hands might even figure out how to do it purely in BASH, without resorting to any external programs.
