Re: Delaying mount of UFS filesystem in ZFS pool

2008-05-29 Thread Aaron Holmes
I didn't think of mountlate, that may work. What I ended up doing was 
adding the noauto option and running a cronjob that checks and mounts 
the filesystem.
Unfortunately, I learned that quotas only apply to mount points and not 
directories, so I may not be of any use for testing new things in the 
near future.

Ideas?



Adding 'late' flag in Options section to the fstab entry may help,
although I don't think it will help with quotas:

# rcorder /etc/rc.d/*
[...]
/etc/rc.d/mountcritlocal
[...]
/etc/rc.d/zfs
[...]
/etc/rc.d/mountcritremote
[...]
/etc/rc.d/quota
[...]
/etc/rc.d/mountlate
[...]

We might consider running rc.d/quota after rc.d/mountlate, not sure if
it won't break something else. I added freebsd-rc@ to CC.

Setting quotas on nested directories

2008-05-27 Thread Aaron Holmes

Hello all,
I want to set quotas on nested directories; ie: /mnt/docs has the 
directories legal and IT

I want to limit legal to 50GB. How can this be done, if at all?
From my googleing, it looks like any filesystems you want to apply 
quotas need to be be 1) in /etc/fstab and 2) mounted


Thanks,

If you are in wheel, then you should be able to sudo su to switch to

 I have a team of designers working on web 2.0 like sites.

 I have added them all to this box, now I'm wondering what's the most

 My temporary solution has been to add all users with UID and GID 80,
 and then ln -s /usr/local/www ~/collabo for each user.

 If users have their original UID instead of www's then somehow they 
can't

 read or write to /usr/local/www. I thought sharing the same GID was
 sufficient, but obviously it isn't. I find this very strange.

 Some of them prefer just using FTP, so then being able to click on

 and go straight to /usr/local/www is very convenient for them.

 But is there a better way?

I think the easiest way would be to add them all to a similar group 
(www, perhaps) and chown -R user:group /usr/local/www; chmod -R g+rw 
/usr/local/www
This will give whatever group you specify read, and write access to the

You can use the command line php script.php and it will execute it for 
you. You can also open a browser and point it at your local webserver, 
ie: lynx localhost/dir/script.php
Other than that, I do not believe there is a way to view the results of 
your script, and it has to be passed through the php engine.
