Good questions - because this is AIX and I cannot stop the find command traversing directories (only limit is filesytem boundaries)

I knocked this together today but it is not listing all files in the while true FILE loop. I tried two variations, one with the ultimate endgame matching files which are go+w and one without. The idea is to check the files in each users home directory to ensure nothing is go+r. lsuser -a home...

Thanks guys, in between posting this I tried it in KSH93 and it works - thanks for the help.

Hi all, I inherited this script which does not work on AIX:- touch a; chmod og-rwx a; ui=($(echo 0027 -n | fold -w1));sys=($(perl -e 'printf "%04o\n",(stat shift)[2] & 07777' a | fold -w1));for (( i=0; i<4; i++ )); do echo -n $(( ${ui[$i]} & ${sys[$i]})); done Basically, it is supposed to...

Hi all, On AIX I had some problems with \s+ matching spaces so ended up using [[:blank:]]. But if there are multiple spaces between two words in a file, what is the best way of using [[:blank:]] without typing it more than once? Also the number of space varies per line, so there is no fixed...

Hi all, I am trying to come up with the simplest way to parse root's path and then examine whether or not each directory is world writable or not. So far this works fine in listing the PATH names:- for DIR in `su - root -c "echo $PATH"| tr ':' ' '` do ls -lLd $DIR done This lists:-...

Hi there, This is giving me a bit of headache. Trying to grep out IP addresses from files, so looking for a "xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx" address format:- cat /tmp/test |egrep "[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}\.([0-9]{1,3}" This is the command I came up with, sort 0-9, 1-3 times followed by a dot. It works but it...

Hi, Log in as another user and check out the .profile for that user via vi. It sounds like your default profile may be the problem here i.e. there are invalid entries. Best of luck PSD IBM Certified Specialist - AIX V4.3 Systems Support IBM Certified Specialist - AIX V4 HACMP

Josh, If you get the PVID of the failed disk just use: reducevg rootvg <PVID of missing disk> It seems that you did not remove the original hdisk1 from the volume group, according to your steps above. Cheers PSD IBM Certified Specialist - AIX V4.3 Systems Support IBM Certified Specialist -...

amins, This is a limitation is the native AIX grep command. You will need something like GNU grep to get past this limitation, you can download it for AIX 5.1 at: http://aixpdslib.seas.ucla.edu/packages/grep.html Cheers PSD IBM Certified Specialist - AIX V4.3 Systems Support IBM Certified...

Ken, This is most likely due to the name resolution of the server you are connecting from. Add both the hostname and fully qualified domain name into your .rhosts file to be safe, and of course make sure you can resolve both on the target server. Cheers PSD IBM Certified Specialist - AIX...

unixfreak, There is no fileset containing the password dictionary, it's use is controlled by a parameter in /etc/security/user i.e.: dictionlist = /etc/security/dictionary Create a file called dictionary, or whatever you want to call it, owned by root with 600 permissions and add in any words...
