The problem is cased by libtool not installed on the server, fixed by installing libtool

# yum list|grep -i libtool
libtool-libs.i386 1.5.6-4.EL4.1.c4.4 installed
libtool.i386 1.5.6-4.EL4.1.c4.4 base
#

yum install libtool

On linux, i was asked to delete a folder with lot of files.

When i try to delete the file with rm if *, i got error, too big arguments.

The files are deleted with command

find /home/mwp2007/mail/new -type f | xargs rm -f

/home/mwp2007/mail/new is the folder which contain the files.

Linux “history” command shows previous commands used in your server. This is good as you can see what commands are run on your server.

By default history do not show date and time of command execution. You can enable this by editing the file /etc/profile and adding following line as the last line.

HISTTIMEFORMAT=”%h.%d %H:%M”

Today i worked on a Fedora C4 server, the langiage is set to German. This is the second time i am working on german server, first one was suse linux. With the help of a german friend, i change the language to english using command “yast”

On Fedora, to change langiage, you need to edit the file /etc/sysconfig/i18n

The content was

LANG=”de_DE.UTF-8″
SYSFONT=”latarcyrheb-sun16″

I changed it to

LANG=”en_US.UTF-8″
SYSFONT=”latarcyrheb-sun16″
SUPPORTED=”en_US.UTF-8:en_US:en”

After rebooting the server, language is changed to english.

Here is df -h result

Before changing langiage

# df -h
