delete large directory containing thousands of files

Filed under: Linux — Tags: , , , , , — admin @ 11:22 am

Well if you try to remove a directory with multiple files rm will take a long time also some load on that server .

One solution is to rsync a empty directory .

mkdir empty_dir
rsync -a –delete empty_dir/ yourdirectory/

Also a perl can be made but the rsync is easy for me to remeber .

Some more information about this you can find here

httpd with multiple ssl and password for every key automatically

Filed under: Linux — Tags: , , , , — admin @ 1:19 pm

Well to use this we must use the SSLPassPhraseDialog functionality of httpd – apache .

Basically into ssl.conf we put this line or modify the existing one into

SSLPassPhraseDialog exec:/path/script

Where script is read/execute only by root.

And the script is

 

#!/bin/perl
$server = $ARGV[0];
#print $server;
if ($server eq ‘www.example.com:443’ || $server eq ‘www.example2.com:443’ ) {
print ‘password one’;
} elsif ($server eq ‘example3.com’) {
print ‘Password two’;
}

change root password for mysql 5.7 fresh installed

Filed under: Linux — Tags: , , — admin @ 11:35 am

In order to find out actual password you need to grep log file

grep password /var/log/mysqld.log

This will provide you with root password .

After login on your mysql server with

mysql -u root -p

Then you must change root password with

ALTER USER ‘root’@’localhost’ IDENTIFIED BY ‘newpassword’;
