[Q] Where are located some configuration files on SUN OS ?

All..
I am good at HP-UX. And usually, most configuration
files on HP-UX are located at /etc/rc.config.d
folder, such as namesrv, netconf, etc.
However, I don't know where these configuration files
are located on SUN UNIX.
I know there is no equivalent configuration files
between SUN and HPUX.Not 100%, but there are certainly some general equivalences. I would recommend the rosetta stone page if you're comfortable with one unix but just want some pointers for another system.
http://bhami.com/rosetta.html
So, please let me know what file is containing name
service information (NIS server ip or hostname) and
where it is ?If you just want to change a client, it might be easiest to run 'domainname <domain>' to set the domain, populate /etc/defaultdomain with the domain and run 'ypinit -c'. That will modify /etc/nsswitch.conf to include 'nis' on several lines and will put any servers you list in /var/yp/binding/<domain>/ypservers. See also the 'ypinit' man page.
Additionally, if you know, please let me know the
equivalent files namesrvs,netconf,nfsconf of HPUX on
SUN OS.Try that page and poking around and see if you find it. Ask here if there's anything in particular that you can't find.

Where are the actual Aperture files located? Only in the application? I am transitioning to Lightroom and would like to only move some of the files. Advice appreciated. Also anyone know how to transfer in with edits?

Where are the actual Aperture files located? Only in the application? I am transitioning to Lightroom and would like to only move some of the files. Advice appreciated. Also anyone know how to transfer in with edits? Using iMac, OS X, most recent Aperture and Lightroom 5.7 with plugin for Aperture.

Define "the Aperture files".
Read this concise guide.
The files you imported into an Aperture Library can be exported (at any time, and repeatedly) using the command "File ▹ Export ▹ Originals". Your Originals are never altered. What went in is what comes out.
Adjustments and changes to the metadata that you made since creating an Image in Aperture by importing a file are saved to a text file. This file is combined, on-the-fly, with the Original to create the Image that you see in Aperture. There is no file saved to disk that is the full-size Image. Thumbnails are saved, and Previews are saved. These are JPG files, almost always smaller than the Original. They are not substitutes for the Image for the use you have.
When you need a file of an Image to use in another program, you export the Image from Aperture. "Export" means "Make me a file of this Image according to these file specs I'm providing". The way to get files of your adjusted Images is simple: create them by exporting. Specify "Original size", and use a loss-less image-file format (e.g. TIFF 16-bit) if you want to retain as much visual information as possible.
Search the Web for information about transitioning from Aperture to Lightroom. Note that I say "transitioning". You cannot move a database from one format to another without significant changes, and likely some loss of information. Adobe provides a tool and some instructions. I strongly recommend working out the process step-by-step, and then proceeding with first a few Images, then a bushel-ful, and stopping to use the first few, the the bushel-ful, before committing your entire collection to the process.
As always, never use any computer file without having a back-up.
We have seen mixed reports here of the success of the LR tool that creates a LR database from your Aperture database.
If you want to carefully define the process, and test and refine it, use the excellent process-development, analysis, and execution program inShort.
Sadly, there is not and can never be a good, thorough re-positioning of the digital assets in your Aperture Library to become digital assets in a LR database. Just as a metaphor for any user contemplating transitioning to another digital asset manager: that would be like digging up a house in one country, planting it in a hole in another country, and expecting to be able to use the toilet and the sinks, turn on the lights, cook dinner, and sleep soundly.
HTH,
Kirby.

Just where ARE the site definition files?

I've just received CS4. I want to move it to my more powerful laptop when I install it. I know how to do that and I can move site files, but where are the site definition files? I really don't want to have to set up each site from scratch. Is there one (or more) files that are the name, url, location, id, password etc for each of the (many) sites in CS3?
don Carlos

To import/export site definitions (not site files):
On the old computer:
Site > Manage Sites
Shift click to highlight all site names
Export..
Same procedure on new computer then Import..

Nas on airport extreme not recognized by time machine. same nas was previously used as time machine backup on different airport extreme. are there any configuration files that i can delete to fix this problem ?

nas on airport extreme not recognized by time machine. same nas was previously used as time machine backup on different airport extreme. are there any configuration files that i can delete to fix this problem ?

Time Machine has been working just fine, but in the last week or two it has given up the ghost. I reset the connections to the drive, and it will basically save a few bytes of data and then hang.
Although Apple originally announced, prior to the release of the first 802.11n AirPort Extreme Base Stations (AEBSn), that it would support Time Machine backups to AirPort Disks, they removed that option before they did finally release the base station for sale.
Since then, Apple has posted (as you have noted) that they DO NOT support Time Machine backups to AirPort Disks. As far as I know, they have not changed from that position and those who do these backups find that they become corrupted over time. Sorry, but it sounds like you just confirmed that for yourself.
1) Has one of the recent updates either on the AE (firmware) or OSX disabled this function?
No. Again, this feature has never been supported by Apple for every generation of AEBSn released.
2) Are there any changes I can make to get this working again?
If your data backups are critical to you, then you will want to use a different solution for your Time Machine backup destination drive strategy. I would suggest that you connect your WD My Book directly to your Mac in the mean time.
Your other options would be to either use a Time Capsule (which interestingly does support TM backups to AirPort Disks) or a non-Apple solution like the Drobo FS or HP MediaSmart server.

Where are these unix executable files coming from and how do I recover the original text file?

where are these unix executable files coming from and how do I recover the original text file?

When you upgraded to Lion did you have AppleWorks installed on your mac?
Most of the AW documents can be opened by Pages 09 or Numbers 09 with most of the orginal format in tact. (I do not know if previouse verision will work) just open the AW file with both and see which one works best.
Text Edit will also open most of the AW files as well but will require a lot of work to restore them to their orginal format.
If you have AW Database documents then they are not supported.
These document show up as "exec icons", Kind: Unix Executagle File.
They also will show up as .cwk file if they are small files. I have a couple that were under 1mb that are shown as " Kind: AppleWorks Document" but will not open.
The only option to open AW database is to have AW installed on a mac with a pre-Lion OS to recover the file.

Hi,
I believe the folder is still in the same place, but it seems that the Home/Library folder is hidden (i.e. you cannot see a Library folder at all it if you go to Home). At least I can't
Try a search in Finder. Search for "mail" under "Library" (and select Kind > Folder). This should bring up a list of results from which you can get to the Mail folder. Hope that helps!
Best,

Satellite L650 - Where are the Office setup files located

Hey there
I have a problem with office 2007 on my L650 and need to locate the setup files/cabs to run the setup program again.
Anyone have any ideas where the files are located?
Cheers
BTW the prob with Office is when I click a file to open in office (ie: work.docx) spits up an error saying action only valid for products installed!
yet the icon is there and everything is installed, this only happened 2 days ago for no apparent reason.
I tried to go directly to the MS Office folder and initialise word from the 'EXE' and this gave me an out of memory error.
Tried to uninstall from Control Panel and still a different error came up.
Anyways if anyone can help please.

As far as I know the Office is preinstalled on the notebook and you cannot restart the installation furthermore its just an trial version and if you want to have a full version, you have to make a purchase.
In your case I see just one solution: the unit needs to be set to factory settings again to get Office working again.

Where are Pantone color library file locations for InDesign CC?

I cannot believe how difficult it is to find this information. It should be a quick search in the regular Help system.
I'd really like to find the file locations for Illustrator CC and Photoshop CC too, because I need to update my Pantone libraries, but every place I can find to save them does not seem to be the default location, so I end up with a really long dropdown menu of strangely duplicated library names, and I have no idea how to clean it up or where the program is looking to give me that list.
As far as I can tell, the default libraries are located whereever that first set is. The lower sets must be somewhere else, but I don't know where, because I've deleted all Pantone sets but one that I could find, but I can still see them (and the other non-pantone color books) duplicated in the lower sets.
Please help! Also, Adobe, if you see this, this information should be READILY and EASILY found through the main Help menu in any Adobe product.

This was the correct answer:

@Maurizio – the standard settings, the joboption files with the brackets like [PDF/X-1a:2001] are stored inside the inDesign app for InDesign CC 9.2.1.
The path for these would be:
/Applications/Adobe InDesign CC.app/Contents/MacOS/Resources/Adobe PDF/settings/mul
or with a Japanese version of InDesign:
/Applications/Adobe InDesign CC.app/Contents/MacOS/Resources/Adobe PDF/settings/japan
If you do a right-click on the InDesign app you can show them with "Show Package Contents" options.
All other PDF joboptions that you are creating are relative to your current User Library. They are stored in:
~/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Adobe PDF/Settings
Where the tilde sign at the beginning indicates the home of the currently used user.
You can access ~/Library, if you press the alt key when accessing the "Go To" menu in the Finder. Otherwise it's invisible.

The .ipsw files for iPod firmware updates are located at:

The filenames are a bit cryptic, but you can make out the version.

Where is the auditd configuration file?

Acorrding to a documentation here, there is a file called /etc/sysconfig/auditd. It's the configuration file of auditd. But :
jack ~ $ locate audit | grep etc
/etc/audit
/etc/libaudit.conf
/etc/audit/audit.rules
/etc/audit/auditd.conf
not such file obviously.
Last edited by gundamfj (2013-06-09 11:28:32)

And why do you think some random SUSE tutorial is more right than the package's documentation?
Have a look, it's really short:
$ man auditd
By the way, this is a great example why Arch forums are so strict about providing support only for Arch: either this SUSE config file is in custom location (moved there by SUSE developers), or this tutorial is outdated.
Edit:
It seems /etc/sysconfig/auditd is not auditd's configuration file, but its service's config. This is done through systemd now.

Apropriate location for configuration files.

What are the issues with placing configuration files in /etc? In particular, with regards to configuration files shared between multiple applications.
Would you rather see these files in /opt/companyname or /usr/local? Why?
Further, does anyone know where I could find any standards documentation on exactly what types of files belong in which directories?
Thanks!

Take a look at the following documentation on docs.sun.com:
-- docs.sun.com -> Solaris 7 -> System Admin Guide I -> Managing File System -> chapter 32.
http://docs.sun.com:80/ab2/coll.47.8/SYSADV1/@Ab2PageView/idmatch(FSFILESYSAPPX-94408)#FSFILESYSAPPX-94408?Ab2Lang=C&Ab2Enc=iso-8859-1
You will find that /etc/opt -> Configuration information for optional packages. Another typical location where such configuration files are kept are /var/opt -> Root of a subtree for varying files associated with software packages.
You can also find alot of specific/additional information for files in /etc directory in 'man' pages (eg. man networks, etc). An example search order of configuration file by application for your reference.
$HOME---->/var/opt/xyz---->/etc/opt/xyz---->/opt/xyz

Dynamic Printer Mapping by Location with configuration file

Hi everybody,
i'm looking for a script thats mapping printer by location (ip adress) which is controlled by a configuration file, where the shared printers are defined. Unfortunately I could not find anything like this in the web. So I'm asking if somebody,may have such
a script which can be used as a logon script.

It sounds like you have a specific requirement. It's unlikely that someone has written a script that already does exactly what you want.
However, as has been noted in this forum numerous times, the recommendation is to use Group Policy Preferences (GPP) to manage printers on client computers.
The most appropriate place to ask about this is in the
Group Policy forum.

Where are Thunderbird e-mail files stored on my computer?

I have read the suggested articles and followed the instructions as best I can, but I still cannot figure out how to get to profile (the path revealed in "Troubleshooting Information," by clicking "show folder," was not what I found on my computer---one element in the supposed path, "AppData," simply was not there in the tree) unless I somehow missed a hidden clue. Furthermore, even if I manage to get to profile, I still don't comprehend how to move my e-mail files from there to a location on my computer that is easy to get to and to back up along with all my other data files.
Perhaps my level of knowledge is too modest here because the assumption is that I know more than I actually do know. If that is the case, I apologize, but that does not resolve the issue. I wonder why the folders containing e-mails are not placed in an obvious and handy location to begin with, but that of course is a different matter.
But right now, all I want to do is to (1) get to profile, (2) understand how to back up the actual profile (or profiles, if I ever have more than one, which I don't quite understand, either), and (3) comprehend how to separate out and move the e-mail files/folders located there to an easily accessible and obvious (to me) location. I would greatly appreciate some basic-level instruction on this.
(I might mention that because it did not meet my needs generally, and also because it was most inconveniently down periodically, otherwise difficult to use far too frequently, and administered with shockingly scant attention to customer satisfaction despite its full-bore commercial nature, I abandoned AT&T/Yahoo web mail for a computer-resident POP client. I chose Thunderbird on the recommendation of a knowledgeable friend. I had used Outlook with relatively good success quite some time ago but have a fundamental aversion to patronizing Microsoft when I do not absolutely have to do so. That is why I am trying with much energy to get Thunderbird to work for me with some reasonable degree of convenience and functionality.)
Thank you.

''re: A folder-copy isn't easy to read,''
Only if you need to read a specific email as emails are not stored in separate .eml files. They are stored in mbox files which look like a long text document containing emails written one after the other in the order downloaded. But for backing up and reinstalling a Profle which contains all your data, it is stored exactly as required for reinstalling. It also stores all your preferences and account details and so on - eg: address books.
''re: if its not compressed it also includes all deleted files.''
What gnospen actually means is 'compacted' not compressed. They are two entirely different things which should not be confused. You can easily empty the Deleted and Junk folders and then compact all your folders before backing up. This resolves this if it is of a concern to you.
As gnospen says, ImportExportTools is an excellent tool for backing up emails - not your Profile, not your account settings and preferences and not your address books.
You can choose to use to store emails as separate .eml files or HTML or plain text format or as a single text file or pdf format or export the entire folder in mbox format with or with subfolders.
If you want to use ImportExportTools, Thunderbird needs to running, I would advise you go into Offline mode whilst backing up as you do not want your folders synchronising whilst performing this task.
Here is a link to ImportExporttools addon:
* https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/addon/importexporttools/
I suppose what you need to determine is what do you want to backup.
I would advise, if you want all your prefernces, account settings, address books and emails saved in one go, then copy the Profile to create a backup or use MozBackup tool.
If you only want to backup emails then use ImportExportTools addon tool.
If not backing up your entire profile, but you do want to keep a backup of address books then you can go to Address Book and select the address book, then Tools > Export as either LDIF or comma separated .csv file.
Note: comma separated .csv files can be opened by other programs such as Excel and can also be easily imported into any email client or back into Thunderbird.
