Greetings, Is there a simple way to write a batch file that is elevated, so that a service can be shutdown ?
What I am is doing is using robocopy to copy a database to a linux box. To shutdown the database , I need the elevated level to shutdown the database service. I can do it manually, however, the objective is to have it done daily in task scheduler.

To confirm the change to "run as system" , it worked well. Had to utilize the 'net use' for user /permissions. I see there is a thread about automating that. Will investigate.
thanks everybody

What are folks using to recover a deleted/corrupted partition these days.
I haven't had to do this in a number of years, at that time 'test disk' was my go to utility.

Running a Zimbra server, and came across this today. 2 fqdn and 1 ip (ptr lookup).

Is there a simple way of avoiding the rejection of the email ?

ip in questions is 198.160.191.6 ( sending server)

and the pandemonium..is the sending server.

@DustinB3403 some folks claim jdupes is faster, I have used both, and did not much of a difference.
Both work well.

Does anybody know of a simple utility to convert .cgm files into something more common, less proprietary ?

I have been coerced into the 'seo' arena. I have read Scott's post and associated threads. Very informative. The 'net has
so much on the subject, and a lot of 'snake oil', I am wondering if anybody knows of a good primer I could utilize/follow to get started. Also, google analytics, necessary, optional, ....... thanks kindly

struggling with renaming 35k files. they all have a '~' at the end of the name, ie. blahblah.xls~, blahblah.docx~, etc.

I thought rename would do the job, but I have something incorrect with the syntax, or I don't know what I am doing.
The files are in many sub directories, all differing in depth. I tried the following, any suggestions ?

find . -iname ".~" | rename -n 's/.~$//' . mmm

weird, the window wasn't showing the last part of the command, so I added the 'm', so the '.' would show up ignore the m's

but no action. sigh

Where does one get raid controller batteries , at a modest price. I see that I can get a new one for ~150.00

I am thinking $10 -15 is more reasonable. It is for an older controller, LSI 9750, however, it is doing its job and I expect
it to work another year or two or three.

@dbeato that wasn't the issue

@dbeato argh ubuntu, too many things on the go. my apologies

@dbeato 8.8.12 and centos 16

I have a zimbra installatin , that seems to have the "better" of me at the moment. It seems the proxy has gone awry. I am see the following errors in the nginx.log.

code_text
```All nginx lookup handlers are unavailable while SSL handshaking to lookup handler```
code_text

code_text
` zm lookup: all lookup handlers exhausted while SSL handshaking to lookup handler

are a couple of the repeated errors from the nginx.log, any ideas ?

Has anybody found a successful method of removing the kdevtmpfsi/kinsing malware ?

I did notice that in the article on slashdot, so I suspect it is ready for "prime time"

https://linux.slashdot.org/story/21/04/03/0450256/almalinux-released-as-a-stable-rhel-clone-for-those-who-liked-centos?utm_source=slashdot&utm_medium=twitter

claims it is ready for production use.

Is everyone seeing shortages of the ryzen 5 3400G cpu's ? Up here ( north of the 49th), there hasn't been any stock
in months. Curious if anyone has any insight on the supply chain.

I have forgotten what terminal emulation to use for this situation. I am trying to run lsblk on a proxmox host,
I can make out what the results are, however in a remote ssh session some of the characters are ???????

I don't remember, but there is one emulation that will display properly.

lsblk
