  3. Reading variables from a file [solved]

    in Command Line, Kernel and Programming

    Posted

    Can any one tell me how to read variables from a text file so they can be used with in a bash script

     

    ie text file has

     

     
serverone_host=amber 
serverone_ip=10.0.0.1 
servertwo_host=green 
servertwo_ip=10.0.0.2 
and so on

     

    bash file picks out the different variables so rather then having to edit a load of scrips i would only have to edit the text file each time i deploy a system

     

    gee i am asking the question and that doesn't make sense to me hope it make sense to some one out there

     

    Regards

  4. squid proxy and dansguardian

    in Security

    Posted

    quick reply

     

    presuming you are wanting a filtered transparent proxy

     

    change the shorewall rules /etc/shorewall/rules

    so thet the line

     

    REDIRECT loc 3128 tcp www

    is

    REDIRECT loc 8080 tcp www

     

    8080 is the default port for dansguardian

     

    then restart shorewall

     

    in the /etc/squid/squid.conf

    add if they are not there already

     

    httpd_accel_host virtual

    httpd_accel_with_proxy on

    httpd_accel_uses_host_header on

    httpd_accel_port 80

     

    restart squid

     

    and all should be well

     

    if that dosnt work ild post my squid.conf file after i get back from work

     

    Regards

# logs into the network

       print LOGON "NET USE W: \\\\$ARGV[1]\\AdminTeachers\r\n"; 
   } 
#    print LOGON "deltree /y c:\\windows\\profiles\\* \r\n"; 
print LOGON "if not \"%OS%\"==\"Windows_NT\" GOTO NT9x\r\n"; 
print LOGON ":NTOS\r\n"; 
print LOGON "echo \"Windows NT\"\r\n"; 
print LOGON "echo printers\r\n"; 
print LOGON "\\\\$ARGV[1]\\netlogon\\con2prt.exe /f\r\n"; 
print LOGON "regedit /s printerpatch.reg\r\n"; 
print LOGON "logonprinters.vbs\r\n"; 
print LOGON "NET USE H: \\\\$ARGV[1]\\$ARGV[0]\r\n";

print LOGON "del c:\\windows\\*.pwl\r\n"; 
print LOGON "c:\\windows\\proguard.exe\r\n"; 
print LOGON "R:\\packages\\INTERCHK\\W95Inst\\setup -inl -a\r\n";

print LOGON "GOTO END\r\n"; 
print LOGON ":END\r\n"; 
print LOGON "echo \"DONE!!\"\r\n"; 
print LOGON "EXIT\r\n"; 
 
#        print LOGON "pause\r\n"; 
close LOGON;

     

    This all works very well however i now want to be able to test which lab a machine is in

    the machines are all names lab1-01, lab1-02, lab2-01 etc.

     

    now to the question does anyone know how i can do a 'if' command that only looks at the 1st 5 letters of the machine name (the lab1 bit)

     

    The machine name is passed to the script as $ARGV[3]

     

     

    hope that makes sense

     

    regards

  10. Can Someone Help With a Script to..

    in Command Line, Kernel and Programming

    Posted

    Can some one help me with a script that can read a list of full names, then strip all but the first 3 letters of the first name and join it to the the surname to make a username.

     

    ie Full Name richard smith --- becomes ricsmith

     

    unless there is already a user called ricsmith in which case it would make richsmith .

     

    then run the useradd command :

     

    useradd -d /home/ricsmith -g some_group -p (get a password from some other file)

     

    then out print out the fullname, username and password to yet another file .

     

     

    Dose any of that even make sense. :wall:

     

    Thanks for any help.

  19. ut help!

    in Games

    Posted

    ut has installed in a fashon but it has not decomressed the maps,

     

    Q: UT appears to have installed properly, but the game keeps complaining about a missing 'Entry' and exiting!

    A: Under some circumstances (such as using an unsupported CD), the maps are not uncompressed during the installation. The opening screen of Unreal Tournament is actually a map, called "Entry", which should be named usr/local/games/ut/Maps/Entry.unr if this file is missing, the installation was not successful and you should make sure that you are using the correct installer for your CD. If the file is present but is named Entry.unr.uz, it is still compressed. Since the maps were not shipped on the retail UT CD in a compressed format, you are either trying to use a GOTY CD (or one of the other, unsupported, Unreal Tournament releases) with the regular installer, or the uncompression step failed. If you have a number of .uz files in your /usr/local/games/ut/Maps/ directory, you will need to uncompress them after the installation. A description for doing so follows:

     

    #!/bin/sh

    # FILENAME: convert.sh

    #

    # Change this to YOUR install-dir of UT

    #

    INSTALLDIR=/usr/local/games/ut

     

    cd $INSTALLDIR/System

     

    for i in ../Maps/*.unr.uz

    do

      ucc decompress $i -nohomedir

    done

     

    mv *.unr ../Maps

     

    cd ../Maps

    for f in *.unr

    do

      rm $f.uz

    done

     

    echo "..:: Done! ::.."

     

    stright from the lgfaq (just to keep Dolson happy) :oops:

     

    that fix the problem for me

     

    hope it helps

     

    regards

    im just a stalker,

    Hey there. I really hate WineX now. I want NATIVE Linux games, so I don't  

    plan to do much work on my WineX tutorial.

     

    However.... I would be interested if you could copy-paste me the output  

    (errors) so I could see if it's something I have encountered before.

     

    I will find the WineX RPM for you now.

     

    Lemme go look.

     

    ...

     

     

    I clicked the link, and it started downloading the file, so it should work  

    for you. Use a download manager like NT or someting.

     

    http://mdkxp.by-a.com/rpm/winex-cvs-200502-1.i586.rpm

     

    You will probably also need a program to generate your ~/.wine/config file.  

    Here is my home site, and you can find winesetuptk.rpm in my list of RPMs:

     

     

     

    Hope it works for you.
