find . -name *.jks -print 2>/dev/null returns files of extension jks that do not have underscores as part of their name. Much to my surprise, I have just discovered that * does NOT substitute the underscore. find . -name *_*.jks -print 2>/dev/null returns files of extension jks that have on...

This question is relevant to the question of 'what happens when we type a simple command on shell?' I posted earlier. (I thought it would be better to post it seperately. But if not, please let me know.) I learned from the previous question that the shell built-in commands are treated specially ...

I have a simple doubt on execution of a simple command. As per my understanding, when we type a command such as ls on interactive shell, Shell interpretes the command. Shell creates a child process and excecutes the command on the child process. Shell waits for the child process's completion. ...

I am running the following command, but it is not performed recursively: find . -name *.java I know there are java files further down in the current directory but it is performing the find on the current directory only. I am using OS X, 10.9.

I'm raising this issue because it seems to me that when we find a new question that has an obvious duplicate, it should not necessarily be the new question that is closed. We already have a good precedent in that occasionally someone will do a self-answered Q&A (actually the only one I know of i...

How to configure squid proxy in localhost and tests it , when there is already a proxy in my institution network. I have installed squid, tried with default port and different port. But, it's not working. Thank you for the replies.. I got it working using cache_peer for squid behind another p...

Just to formally document the exact policies we have in place to remove old abandoned / dead questions, the Community user will delete questions in the following circumstances: If the question is more than 30 days old, and ... has −1 or lower score has no answers is not locked ...or... it ...

Given the observations made by derobert and slm, we should use the tags apache-httpd for questions about the web server of the Apache project; other tags (e.g. lighttpd) for questions about a specific non-Apache web server; webserver for questions about web servers in general. Since apache is...

I installed HTTPD package to setup private web server in my house on one of the computers. The server is up and running, but I can't access the server from outside by using my external IP address. I think it's because of my router, I have 3 computers in the house connected through router, and on...

“Interface” is a very broad word that could mean anything. The interface tag is mostly about network interfaces, and the questions are mostly about Ethernet interfaces. We have an ethernet tag for questions specifically about Ethernet transport and interfaces. However some questions may warrant ...

Since we have direct links to comments now, IMHO it would only be fair for comment links in the chat to be treated on the same level as question and answer links. (This question feels kinda empty, and I don't even have a pony picture handy to pad it...)

I am working on a test server. Was logged in as root and issued cd / chmod go-r * I certainly revoked the write permissions for the users that I had created. Did I revoke the permissions (r/w/x) from all the groups that were created for processes like mysql, httpd, ftp etc - or do they chown ...

So @Gilles mentioned in the chatroom here that the above syntax could be used with less in order to view a file in reverse, I think. I've never seen it before, and though I asked there, I thought, you know, since this is a Q&A site after all, maybe I'd make it official - for progeny or whatever. ...

If your question is “what is X”, you should look on Wikipedia first. Then, it's fine to ask something like “what is X? Wikipedia says it's a green wobbly widget, but I don't understand what it means for a widget to be wobbly or why it would matter that it's green”. Or “How does X apply to <specif...
