Leaving off the -v will keep output containing those patterns.

If you set the

It's as if you're "logging in" as root (-l)
running su without -l will elevate your priveledges without this same

between that code and some variant thereof using a pipe and "xargs"?
Are they simply two different ways of achieving the same result? Or
is there some more importa

I am attempting to write a simple Bash script that will find all the
'*.pem' files in a directory structure and move them to another
directory. It seems to work until I get to the copy part where it fails.
My scripting skills are not that good. Perhaps someone could tell me
what I am doing wrong.
Hello,
I'm having a problem getting java to work on Firefox 2.
diablo-jre16 latest version is installed.
After about:plugins it doesn't show.
Manual says to enter this as root, and so I do that.
ln -s /usr/local/diablo-jre1.6.0/plugin/i386/ns7/libjavaplugin_oji.so \
/usr/local/lib/browser_plugi
Hi,
I' ve being searching but found no direct way to monitor indivitually logged
entries of ipfw in real time. Something like ipmon from ipf.
>From the ipfw --option command i get only summaries.
How do i get real time logs on my screen?
Thanks in advance ...
on FBSD-6.4-stable alpha, if I build port misc/e2fsprogs with gcc44, I get:
# xdm
/libexec/ld-elf.so.1: /usr/local/lib/libuuid.so.1: Unsupported relocation type 3
1 in non-PLT relocations
#
The default system compiler gcc3.4.6 is fine.
Please advise
many thanks
