The general thinking is, "Unix is a grown up OS to be used by grown ups."
If you tell it to remove a file, it does it, no questions asked, and it is
forever gone.

Now, having said that, let it be known that all of us, at one time or
another, have blown away a file that we really needed.  There are also
several ways you can protect yourself in this reguard.  If the "rm" command
is where you are shooting yourself in the foot, you might try:
alias rm "rm -i"	# if you are using the C-shell

rm () {
rm -i $*		# if you are using the bourne shell
}
If you you need steel toed shoes for this command, you need a "rm" script that
copies and deletes (or moves) the file to a "wast basket" and a cron program
that will dump the waste basket a few days later.

I have a copy of the steel toe version (I need it), let me know and I'll
send you a copy.

Hi everybody, help please!


I was trying to send someone a large file by Postal-mail (no, he is
not networked). The file is on SUN SPARC IPC and is about 3 MB.
Is there any way that I can split it and put it on several 3" 1/2
floppy disks? BAR? DUMP? Yes, there is a build-in floppy drive on
IPC. Any help is appreciated. Please reply by e-mail. Thank you.

The problem is that rsh continuely tries to read from the terminal.
When you background it it receives SIGTTIN which stops it.  If you
give rsh the -n flag it will redirect it's own stdin to /dev/null (You
can also do that manually with 'rsh foo script1 </dev/null') and it
will continue to run even when backgrounded.

[heterogeneous net, mostly Sun SPARCS]

I'm looking for suggestions for a good system monitoring program
with the following characteristics:

1) It runs every so often on every machine every so often
2) It sends mail or posts news when there is a problem
3) It checks for runaway processes and consistantly high loads
4) It checks for close-to-full file systems and stale NFS handles
5) It's smart enough to know when the machine has been rebooted recently
    and sends mail out

Desired:
1) It takes up little disk space
2) Runs reasonably efficiently (i.e. instead of running "ps" it opens the memory itself
and looks around).

Thanks,
Rich

This can be taken many ways.  I personally decided to take it literally.  You
want to know how many times the space bar was pressed in the file.  IE, I do
not count <tab> as being eight spaces or anything like that.

tr '\012' "#" <$infile | tr " " '\012' | wc -l

If fp is a file pointer (stdin, stdout, stderr or obtained via the
fopen(3) family of libary functions) the expression "fileno(fp)"
returns the associated file descriptor.

The system include files reside under /usr/include.

Second that opinion. We exhausted the standard SCCS tools, then looked at
RCS to see what all of the excitement was about. If the FSF and GNU folks
use it, there's probably a good reason. RCS is superlative to SCCS because
it isn't as rigid and allows me to make mistakes once in a while. Then
we looked at CVS, and I've never looked back at any other version control
system...

I am just trying to do something simple.  I need a way to determine if
keys are present in the input buffer from the console.  I did read the

to poor exampless manuals.
Please help me create a working function.  I am not a newbie when it comes
to C programming (or C++ for that matter!), however, most of my
experience lies with IBM PCs.

Basically, all I need is: if(kbhit()) ch=getchar();

I tried ioctl like this:
   int count;
   ioctl(stdin/*not sure what goes here*/,FIONREAD,&count);
But of course this doesnt work.

What follows is what I tried with select.

#include <stdio.h>
#include <sys/time.h>

int     nfound, nfds, readfds, writefds, exceptfds;
struct timeval timeout;

   int z,ch;
   nfds = 1;
   writefds = 0;
   readfds = 1;

   timeout.tv_sec = 0;/*DEFAULT_PERIOD*/;
   timeout.tv_usec = 0;
   

   /* this is a bitmap and the 1 specifies to look at stdin only */
   readfds = 1;

   /* the select call will wait for the specified period of time if

      as any characters are available.  If the timeout struct was

      but then it would return a 0.  */
puts("Running:");
for(ch=0;ch!=27;){
   nfound = select(nfds,&readfds,&writefds,&exceptfds,&timeout);
   printf("nfound: %d:4",nfound);
   if (nfound) {

      /* something was typed *{

   else {
      printf("%d10:\r",z++);

I've looked into this. Your hardware is plenty big, but you might
want more drive space if you want to keep the kiddie's games! :)
A problem is that the "real" cost is $1000 with the development 
system- including a GNU complier and tools. If you are going to 
do any hacking, this would be necessary.

I haven't used this, but it is my understanding that it is a bit slow,
but OK.  There is a review in Nov/Dec 92 "Sys Admin" magazine (info@rdpub.com)
of Coherent.  They liked it mainly for the reason that it ran many
SCO apps out of the box.  Another benefit of Coherent would seem to
be their 1200 page manual which discusses it "all"!

Linux is just about to 1.0 and there is much discussion on comp.os.linux.
An added benefit is that it is free!
