In a lot of distros like Debian, ecryptfs will mount itself in /home/yourusername/Private
This is controlled by Private.mnt which may contain the mount path like this:
/home/yourusername/Private
Change the default mount location of ecryptfs by modifying this file:
home/.ecryptfs/yourusername/.ecryptfs/Private.mnt
After you unmount and relogin, you should find ecryptfs is now mo........
In this scenario, let's say you want to clone your OS at the filesystem level and the source system (the system you want to clone from) is in use.
Doing a blind rsync / is a big problem because it uses twice as much space for no reason.
The reason for this is that with ecryptfs you have a /home/.ecryptfs directory which has the actual encrypted versions of your files and folders. However your home directory (eg. /home/someuser) is mounted.
Doing the blind rsync will ca........
If you get an error that you aren't in the sudoers file, this typically means that your user is not designated as an admin with sudo privileges.
In plain English, when it comes to some OS's like Debian including 10,11 etc.., by default the user is created without special privileges which is contrary to how Ubuntu/Mint handle the secondary user.
Let's check the sudoers file to see the problem.........
Create Database:
create database yourdbname;
Show All Databases:
show databases;
Change Database:
use mysql;
Drop / Delete a MySQL Database:
drop database nameofyourdatabase;........
This is a common issue, what if a issue shouldn't have root but you want to use that user to make a full backup of a system? They of course need root access.
You can actually just give them passwordless sudo access to rsync in /etc/sudoers:
sudo vi /etc/sudoers
yourusername ALL = NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/rsync
Here is how you would execute rsync:
The key thing for the remote host is to........

Enter your login passphrase:

Before reading on remember to put the line at the bottom of /etc/sudoers as from experience what happen is that other rules cancel out what you have added.
If your sudoers setup is correct it will work immediately upon saving without requiring a reboot.
Edit /etc/sudoers
yourusername ALL = NOPASSWD: /path/to/command
*Once again remember the above should be on the bottom of the sudoers file or........
All you have to do is browse to:
C:Documents & SettingsYourUserName and you'll see the following:
Inside "My Recent Documents" are of course shortcuts to the most recent documents you opened
Inside "SendTo" is your sendto, you could edit that to Send a file to a network destination, your Flash Drive........
User username from 127.0.0.1 not allowed because not listed in AllowUsers
What's going on? The user was created properly, it has been defined as having a shell entry and the entry for /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow is set just fine.
This is a new and very smart/secure feature of SSHD. It is simple and yet effective, but also very annoying if you didn't know about it being implemented and that hand editing of /etc/ssh/sshd_config is required to allow a newly add........
