I'm looking for a program that will add cookies to my web browser (firefox or chrome, preferably). The application would ask me for the Cookie's:Name
Content
Domain
Path
Send For (type of connection)
Expiration Date
If no one knows of an application that does this, does anyone know what files i could manually edit in order to change a particular browser's cookie values?
I am trying to ssh a remote system and redirect X with:
ssh -X remote.system.somewhere
(common user name in local/remote system so no need to set -l uname ) however I receive the following:
x11_request_forwarding: bad authentication data: MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1
i would like to know whether it is possible to pass firefox a single cookie generated by some other program (in this case wget), doing it from the command line. my concrete use for this is to login to a site (connect.garmin.com) with wget, saving the cookie with --save-cookies --keep-session-cookies, pass this cookie to curl, do some uploads and then pass the cookie to firefox to open the page and have me logged in automatically (everything besides firefox is sorted out). google searches and the firefox man page suggest that firefox doesn't have this functionallity, but would it in that case be possible to link the cookie into firefox's normal cookie jar?

Does anyone know if I'm missing something or if this is a bug?

Running Meerkat on Sony Vaio laptop, with Firefox as the browser of choice.The BBC News website has a "My Location" setting, and shares it automatically with the BBC Weather page for a local forecast.Is it possible to clear the Browsing History, yet save the one individual cookie that is used for this ?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm setting a cookie value using RewriteRule statements in .htaccess for checking if my site should not redirect from the main desktop site to the mobile site (when accessed via iphone browser). The problem occurs when the first RewriteRule sets "mobile=desktop" in the cookie (from detecting "?desktop=true" in the querystring), the third RewriteRule fails to detect the new cookie value and redirect. If I reload the page again (without any querystring for "?desktop=true"), then the third RewriteRule redirects successfully.
Can anyone tell me why the third RewriteRule fails to detect the cookie value straight after it is set in the first rule? How can I fix this to work properly?

I can open the stream fine from Firefox and I have recorded streams using VLC, however this one uses cookies as authentication and VLC will not play it Apparently it's considered a security issue so cookie support has not been implemented for VLC.

I just installed the 10.7 drivers (no workaround they just installed). And now after boot i get a black screen. I have a Radeon HD 4850 there is a way to fix this without reinstalling the OS. Ok in recovery mode when I type Startx i get: line 143: /usr/bin/mcookie: no such file or directory Couldn't create cookie Then if i type Xorg -configure i get : Fatal server error: Cannot open log file "/var/log/Xorg.0.log" Please consult the fedora project support.

One of the things that I am attempting to do is to create cookies using the jquery cookie plugin. The idea is that I want to replace as much of the javascript in my code as possible with jquery to see the difficulties in doing it one way or the other.
As easy as it seems to be able to create a cookie using the plugin I have not been able to do some successfully and the only thing that I can think of is the way that I am submitting my parameters is not correct. So with that, here is is my code:

i recently moved from Ubuntu to Debian(squeeze).. i am very pleased with squeeze except for this bug..I have this python script i wrote to change my wallpaper (through Gconf), the script would be called by cron from time to time.The problem i am facing in Debian is that this script stopped working.I am exporting the $DISPLAY=:0 in Cron, (this is how it worked in Ubuntu)..the cron job i used is below:
-----------
* * * * * export DISPLAY=:0 && /path/to/my/script.py

so the above was not running...I redirected the output and this is what i got as error:

Recently I was going through some chmod manipulations and found the umask values to be 0002 by default in Fedora 11 distro. What I knew about the default values to be 022. I don't know whether this is a kernel modification in this distro or my system is in compromise(I doubt for the latter option, but not confirmed).

It has worked great for email and some net surfing. Now the machine is going to my wife, who does not want have to go to the boot menu to get XP. How do I change the order so that XP boots first and you have to go to the menu to get Fed 11? I've tried going through the forums, but since I'm not really a computer person, there are some basics I don't know (for example "open a terminal" - how does one do that?)

View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm running into a strange problem trying to change the service load or boot order on my CentOS 5.3 box.
The service in question is shorewall. When I go to my /etc/rc.d/rc5.d/, I notice that shorewall is listed a S27shorewall. I need it to start much later. So I run a simple command "mv S27shorewall S99shorewall"
I then restart the server. But after the reboot, something has reset it back to S27shorewall.
For those of you who like the background story: I need to change it to S99shorewall, because I need shorewall to start AFTER xend does all its stuff, as xend messes around with the underlying networking of the computer. The xend stuff was at S98 and S99...but I was able to successfully rename them back to S97 and S98, and the rename stuck. I've also renamed other service orders. Those stick. The only one that gets reset is shorewall, always back to S27. I have no clue how to tell what is causing the resetting...
I'm trying to automate OS installation. I've setup PXE and able to do network installation. For installation, I'm changing the BIOS boot order to boot from network.Once the OS installation is over, I need to manually change the BIOS boot order to boot from hard-disk. Can BIOS boot order be changed using programs/command-line so that i can eliminate human intervention in the installation process by changing back to the original boot order by program/commands?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI recently installed a 64-bit version of centOS 5 alongside a 32-bit version, which I use. Turns out the 64-bit version absolutely will not boot and I'm stuck with it as my default boot option. Since the grub being used resides on the 64-bit half, I cant edit the menu file but I know theres a way to do this without it, through grub itself. I have about 29 render nodes now with this problem, and whenever they need to be rebooted I have to hook a monitor up to each one and hold its hand through the boot process. How to change the grub menu through grub itself, basically just change the default boot option and then have it stay that way?

View 5 Replies View RelatedMy question is about TCP parameters in Linux. By now, I want to change the default values of:
Initial Timeout
ACK Delay
Idle Connection Timeout
I have a Linux Box with kernel 2.6.x and 2 ethernet interfaces. I know TCP is a stack that doesn't have anything to do with ethernet devices. Said that, the question: is there a way to set custom values for each interface? For example, a server listening to connections in eth0 would use one value for Idle Connection Timeout and another server listening to connections in eth1 could use a different value for that parameter.
