I've only used the second form, two separate lines in .smbcredentials.
The ArcGIS software I'm working on has a python library that has some stuff that works, and is available to IDLE on Windows and the embedded python windows in ArcGIS. This works with that arcpy...
I like the use of glob. I need to read up on that. But glob doesn't seem to be available on my Windows machine and python 2.7.2
Vaphell's solution worked really well. The output file had UNIX line endings but that didn't bother the Windows program I used on the next step.
I haven't used this "Subsystem for UNIX based...
I have some ascii lidar files that need to have the first column in each line removed to get them ready for the XYZI format of the ASCII 3D To Feature Class tool. I wanted to make a list of all the...
I assure you that the mount lines are not split after file_ although they might look that way in this forum's code blocks.
The problem was the extra space after dir_ . Good eye. No more errors...
I took out the space and added the comma. I'm not using a gui editor. I'm such a dinosaur I still use vi. Now the fstab lines are like
//paule6500/elevation /home/paul/elevation cifs...
I don't know what I did right, but the forum wanted me to open a new thread http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=11526325#post11526325 I opened alsamixer in terminal and fooled around. Then...
I had to do a complete install of 11.04 from CD. Trying to figure out this Unity Desktop, but now no sound at all from the speakers.

I must have too much time on my hands. I must want to punish myself. I must think I don't have enough frustration. I just went through a series of upgrades with Update Manager from 10.04. Each step...
I've got two 4GB SDHC cards that are stubbornly read-only. After a Picasa Import with delete imported files, it leaves the photos on the cards with a little red x in a circle on the photos Picasa...
No, I was wrong. The first form worked great as long as I kept in the sed line to convert dos to unix. Stopped after the first blank line after "Record". Then I converted them back to DOS txt files...
I couldn't get the first form to work. It just hung. I thought the second form was going to work great. I put it inside my if:
for file in *.tab
do
if grep -q '^Supplemental' $file ; then
sed...
I just tried detecting the blank line with
for file in *.tab
do
sed '/Record/,/^[ ]*$/!d' $file > ../sup/$file.sup
done
but that gave me the same result, lines from Record to the end of the...
A colleague was faced with a problem of 804 ASCII files and he needed to extract the tabular data out of the first part and the last part into Excel spread sheets. He couldn't figure out a way using...
Interesting idea, dropping into perl. This worked for me after changing the line number to look in. I used
for i in *.jgw; do perl -lane '$m = 1 if $. == 5 && m/1585152/;print "$ARGV" if $m && $....
I'm trying to look through a big folder of air photos to see if there are some world files that have duplicate coordinates. I want to find *.jgw files that have 123 in line 5 and 456 in line 6. I...
I don't know what my problem is with a manual mount. Still get a mount that is read only to linux user, owned by root 0777, even after I tried the syntax in the trouble shooting section adding my gid...
I figured out why I was confused about what kind of users can use mount. If you use the user or users option in a line in fstab, then ordinary users can mount the file system described in that line....
Thanks for getting back to me so quickly.
I wasn't correct when I said mount stopped working for users, and is available for root. I meant that on 10/23/2010, smbmount stopped working for user. ...
I have a samba mystery that I can't figure out. For several years I mounted shares on my Windows desktop with a shell script with lines like smbmount //paule6500/docs /home/paul/pauldocs -o...
And now it's worse. Now I find that I can't write to the windows share. Says "Permission denied". Same if I make a share with the Nautilus GUI. Now what's going on? Now that sudo seems to be...
That worked great for a couple years. I upgraded now to 10.04. Rather than editing fstab, I made some little desktop scripts and put them in launchers so I could make the mounts just when I needed...
