Certain files excluded (e.g. /etc/hosts) ?
On our network we have several machines that we just put in our local /etc/hosts file. A coworker recently restored from a Time Machine backup and it didn't restore his /etc/hosts file. That's fine since others have that same information.
Leaving aside the question of whether we put those servers in our dns server...
I am a .mac subscriber and am used to using Backup which is predictable. Does anyone know if there are certain default exceptions for Time Machine - that it does not back up? That might be useful in case I have system files that I actually want to keep the way they are or back up separately.
There are certain files/file_types that TM ignores, like things in the trash and, I think, caches. Exactly which ones, I don't know.

/etc/hosts vs DNS & sendmail
Hi All,
I have a question about how /etc/hosts & DNS work on a solaris 9 box.
When I have entries in /etc/hosts that are not in DNS and I run say nslookup the utility will not find the ip. Put if I ping the entry in /etc/hosts it will find it. Basically I have a box with default sendmail and in /etc/hosts I have a entry with mailhost added to it at the end. nslookup does not find the box ping does and sendmail can't send mail to it and I can not verify that it ever worked correctly.
1) what is up with nslookup no seeing /etc/hosts?
2) can sendmail send to hosts per FQDN listed in /etc/hosts & use a DNS server at the same time?
thanks
-imWhen I have entries in /etc/hosts that are not in DNS
and I run say nslookup the utility will not find the
ip. Correct. nslookup and /etc/hosts are controlled by /etc/nsswitch.conf.
Files says to search /etc/hosts.
Anything else says to use that name service.
Put if I ping the entry in /etc/hosts it will
find it.If it is in /etc/hosts and /etc/nsswitch.conf says to search /etc/hosts.
and in /etc/hosts I have a entry with mailhost added
to it at the end. nslookup does not find the box ping
does and sendmail can't send mail to it and I can not
verify that it ever worked correctly. Sendmail can be compiled to use or disregard name server lookups in addition to the /etc/nsswitch.conf file.
sendmail -v e-mail_addr, should show you some basic diagnostics.
1) what is up with nslookup no seeing /etc/hosts?That's the way it works.
2) can sendmail send to hosts per FQDN listed in
/etc/hosts & use a DNS server at the same time?sure, see /etc/nsswitch.conf and the sendmail compile time options.

Hi all,
Please help sorting my terminal, I'm having problem with my iTune everytime I want to update or restore my ipad or iphone, it keep saying "this device isn't eligible for the requested build"
Now I tried to edit the etc/hosts using the Terminal, but suddenly all the script
# Host Database
# localhost is used to configure the loopback interface
# when the system is booting. Do not change this entry.
127.0.0.1 localhost
255.255.255.255 broadcasthost
::1 localhost
fe80::1%lo0 localhost
#74.208.10.249 gs.apple.com
#127.0.0.1 gs.apple.com
are all gone i think i accidentally deleted it. so what I did was I copy this from forum and paste it to terminal.
But i'm having problem how to save it, when I press ^O it goes like this:
# Host Database
# localhost is used to configure the loopback interface
# when the system is booting. Do not change this entry.
127.0.0.1 localhost
255.255.255.255 broadcasthost

^C Cancel M-D DOS Format M-A Append M-B Backup File
and I dont know how to save it. when I press ^X doesn't save at all.
Please Help me.
Thank you in advance.Well lets make things easier, get out of Terminal by just Quiting it or Force Quit.
Download the free TextWrangler here
http://www.barebones.com/products/textwrangler/download.html
Now under the File Menu >Open File by Name
/etc/hosts
It should look like this, if not then just copy and paste it in.
# Host Database
# localhost is used to configure the loopback interface
# when the system is booting. Do not change this entry.
127.0.0.1 localhost
255.255.255.255 broadcasthost
::1 localhost
fe80::1%lo0 localhost
Now save it and give it your admin password and that's it. Easy as pie.
Terminal's pico and vi editing programs have a lot to be desired, but serve the basic puposes.
With Terminal you need to enter
sudo pico /etc/hosts
then enter your admin password to access a system file.
It can only be done via a Admin account, however with TextWrangler not only is it much easier, you can also access system files from a Standard user account.
the two lines
#74.208.10.249 gs.apple.com
#127.0.0.1 gs.apple.com
You have there are "commented out" with the "#" symbol, basically your telling the computer to "ignore this line"
Why you think messing with your /etc/hosts file is going to solve your primary issue with iTunes/iPad/iPhone is beyond me.
Did you ever think that perhaps your two devices are too old for the "requested build"? -

Can i add what i want between 127.0.0.1 localhost and 255.255.255.255 broadcasthost?
Why is saying i can't change the file, why can i unprotect? Explain me.

/etc/hosts file ignored
I'm having a strange problem with the hosts file
I've edited my hosts file so I can work with a local machine for testing.
The entry in the hosts file is honoured for about 30 seconds or for as long as I ping it.
As soon as I stop pinging it, it reverts to the DNS entry and ignores etc/hosts
If I then touch hosts, it wil honour the entry again for 30 odd seconds.
Any ideas?When it reverts to the DNS entry, I'm not 100% sure DirectoryService is making a request out to our DNS servers or if it's cached somewhere, but it's certainly not using what's in hosts.
Wow, this is odd. WRT DirectoryService making requests, you can use the "dscacheutil" command to look at syscall stats. This utility will track cache hits, cache misses and external calls for each standard system call it monitors. So, you care about gethostbyname(), so by periodically running dscacheutil, then doing name lookups (i.e. with ping or whatever), you can see where the system is getting the data. You'd want to run something like this:
dscacheutil -statistics | grep gethostbyname -
How to do a clean install of yosemite (have Mavericks 10.9.5 now) and then just install certain files, apps, documents, phopt's, etc...from time machine backup?
Do a backup before doing anything.
If you want to make a clean install of Mountain Lion, boot into the Recovery Volume (command - R) on a restart, use Disk Utility to Verify/Repair the disk and run Repair Permissions. Then erase the hard drive using Mac OS Extended (Journaled) format using the Options button. Reinstall Yosemite. Restart normally and test. Use Setup Assistant or Migration Assistant to import what you want.

Adding the /etc/host.deny file like linux in solaris 10.
Dears,
I need to add a file which will works like the file of /etc/hosts.deny of Linux in Solaris.
If it is possible in the same manner please let me know that, and if it need some other trick to deny a specific host to access the system please tell me the way to do that.
Eagerly waiting to hear from you.
BR//
Sohel.IPfilter can deny a specific IP address access to the host - enable IPFilter with svcadm and edit the /etc/ipf/ipf.conf file to add the IP to block. An example could be:
block in log quick on bnx0 proto tcp from 192.168.1.5/32 to any
I use IPfilter to pass and block all sorts of specific IP addresses as well as block/allow specific ports (like only specific hosts can use port 22, ssh). -
The new entries made in /etc/hosts file is not picked up by Weblogic.
Hi All,
I have come across a scenario where i have changed the IP address of a particular host name (which was already present in etc/hosts) to point to a new IP address.
After i did this change, when i do a telnet test to the same hostname, i can see it is getting connected to the new IP to which i changed. But my service which is deployed on weblogic 10.0 still keeps sending requests to the old IP which i commented in the etc/hosts file instead of the new IP address.
My question is will weblogic cache the data in etc/hosts file somewhere?
Thanks in anticipation..
MadhuApplication deployed on weblogic server will pick the IP address of the server on which the application is deployed .
IP address or listen address for weblogic server can be configured in 3 different ways :
Listen Address : Blank --- This means that the server will listen to all the interfaces available on the Machine .
Listen Address : IP address or Hostname --- The server will listen only to the specified IP address or the hostname .
Listen Address : : localhost --- The server will be listening only on localhost address and will not be accessible remotely .
Please check what it the listen address specified at you end.
Thanks,

Can I exclude certain file types in the Photo Downloader?
Hi there!
I am very new here, so please do correct me on etiquette and if I'm doing something wrong. I've been searching the web for quite a while now but couldn't find an answer or even questions concerning this problem...
I like using Bridge's Photo Downloader, for the nice renaming and other options it gives me. Usually I want to download all images from a card and then delete them on the card. The problem I am having is that Photo Downloader will not only see images (like .JPG, .CR2 or .ARW) but camera database files and settings (.INT, .BDM, .BIN, ...). This is annoying, since I neither want them stored on my hard drive nor deleted on my card. I also would like to import movies in a different way. The way I can work around this now is that I manually deselect all non-images in the Advanced Dialog and then only download these. But I was hoping that there is a more elegant and automatic way to just exclude certain file types from automatic selection. Or even just a way to mark or unmark the images by file type. This should be very easy to implement and I am really curious if I am missing something obvious here or if this is just not possible yet.
Has anyone else thought this before? Or are you all using different methods to import images from your card reader?
Any help or comment is appreciated.Sorry, download history is either on or off. There is no preference setting to exclude specific file types.

In the command line how do I find the etc/host file? is there one?
I am trying to work remotely and use our lotus notes system (which is from a windows based server) but I have to connect to the mail server and our IT person wants to find the equivalent of the Windows host file or host table . is there such a file? we went here
http://linux.die.net/man/5/hosts
hosts(5) - Linux man page
Name
hosts - The static table lookup for host names
Synopsis
/etc/hosts
thanksSince you're using a Macintosh, quit reviewing linux stuff. These, when entered in the Terminal app (inside /Applications/Utilities/) should point you in the right direction:
*cat /etc/hosts*
details in:
*man hosts*
FWIW, you should search the Unix forum (or post your query there) under OS X Technologies. -
Editing etc\hosts file on windows xp for apps. problem post installation.
Hi all,
I was able to install 11.5.10.2 apps on my win xp prof machine. During that process I had to edit the etc/hosts file in windows directory as a work around for that domain name field during installation. Also added the primary DNS suffix as 'suneel.com' . I gave the domain name as 'suneel.com' during installation. The RapidWiz is taking localhost as the system name and referring to this system as localhost.suneel.com, though the actual system name is 'websoft-xp' .
The host file on Apps machine has the following entries:
127.0.0.1 localhost
127.0.0.1 localhost.suneel.com suneel.com
127.0.0.1 websoft-xp.suneel.com
So when I connect to apps login server from other systems in lan, I've to edit their hosts file and add an entry for localhost.suneel.com to point to its ip address or else the apps throws an error after logging in as operations/welcome using a different url say 192.168.1.4:8000 . Is there a way to get around this issue?
More over I'm not able connect to VIS db from other systems. The oracle clients give an error 'No listner' at this address. (The original listener was listening at localhost.suneel.com:1521). So I tried to create a new listerner from Net Manager that actually listens at websoft-xp (the real system name) but it throws me an error 'A valid log file is required' while saving the network configuration and prevents me from saving the network configuration.
Did I do something wrong with the hosts file during installation or did i miss any entries in that file thats causing this? Any solutions for the above problems will be appreciated?
Thanks

suneelgvWell I tried that option but for some reason it didn't work for me. It kept giving the tns:connection closed error. Then I searched in metalink and found this note : Note:333158.1
It suggested setting tcp.validnode_checking = no
in sqlnet.ora. in
F:\oracle\visdb\9.2.0\network\admin\VIS_websoft-xp
And it works. Hope this helps someone facing a similar problem. Good luck.
BTW how do I run autoconfig?

Blocking Ad servers via etc/host file not working
In Snow Leopard I add a list of ad servers and direct them to 127.0.0.1 via the /ect/host file.
I've configured the host file on my mac mini server and it doesn't work.
i just want to block ads when using browsers ON the Mini.
How can I achieve this?Yeah; that's an old-time Windows and Unix hack.
There are ad-blocking extensions for all major web browsers, and those are easier to manage and maintain.
Off the top, I'd have to check the search order to see if I was getting a response from remote DNS or from /etc/hosts here.
If you're running a Mac OS X Server box, you're hopefully also running DNS services, and if you're running DNS services, then that's going to be where this hackery gets implemented. Add bogus zones. And if DNS gets an answer from its cache, I wouldn't tend to expect it to go read /etc/hosts (for performance reasons), for that matter.
There may well be an ad-blocking DNS server around you can forward queries to, too; I haven't looked for that.
If you make changes to your local /etc/hosts setup, try issuing the following to clear the cache:
dnscacheutil -flushcache
I'd recommend installing an ad-blocker. /etc/hosts is an old-school approach and can end up causing weirdnesses on errors, particularly if your box is (also) a DNS server for your LAN. (Also realize that Apple isn't documenting the /etc/hosts file in the Mac OS X Server 10.6 networking manual.) -
/etc/hosts Prank Gone Wrong, need help restoring files to original
Some friends were messing around on my computer and playing a joke on me
using the sudo pico /etc/hosts command they were able to send me from sites I wanted to visit, like facebook, to sites I didnt want to visit..
what they wrote was:
67.55.108.167 facebook.com
67.55.108.167 www.facebook.com
I have since deleted it but the every time I go to facebook from another sight I am still redirected. The odd part is that I can go to facebook, but only after ive been redirected. What I mean is, I try to go to facebook, get redirected, then try to go to facebook right away. If I do that it works fine. Also Safari is the only internet browser that is effected. Opera and Firefox are both un effected. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling safari as well as using the same command as they did, but in reverse. Still no luck. Any suggestion? Unfortunately they didnt back up the /etc/hosts before they edited itYou might also want to flush your DNS cache
dscacheutil -flushcache
Also make that password change.
Look in System Preferences -> Accounts to see if your friends added any new admin accounts or granted an existing account admin access.
If they know how to create ssh-keygen keys, they could have deposited a key in your /private/var/root/.ssh/authorized_keys2 file.
There are any number of additional tricks they could have done, if they had admin access. I'm just scratching the surface.
If you do trust these friends, then most likely they just played with /etc/hosts. If they are the kind of friends that get malicious, I would consider the "nuke and pave" reinstall.
