General :: Generate Random Number Either 1 Or 0?
Jan 21, 2010Not only that but I need tons and tons of them generated, and I need it to be totally random each time.
Code:
matthew@mvm:/h/misc> cat a
#!/bin/bash
for i in {1..5}; do
echo $RANDOM
[Code]....
There you can see that it is the same number. It does that every time!! Grrr. The strange thing is each time I manually type [or copy & paste] it into the terminal, it gives random [not static, like I am getting from my script] results.
The reason I want this is because I am making a script where this line will randomly go up or down [depending on if the random number is 1 or 0].

View 6 Replies View RelatedGeneral :: Putting A Remote Syslog Into Its Own File?
Aug 11, 2010I have a Tomato router and it has the capability to have its logs go to a external server. syslog is the obvious choice for this. So I enabled remote logging on my linux server's syslogd (syslogd -r) and I can see all of the logs in /var/log/syslog. What I want to do is take everything that comes from the IP of my router (10.0.0.1) and divert it to its own file like /var/log/tomato to avoid polluting my syslog with external logs.
I can't find any examples of someone doing this. My only solution is to get a script together that strips out any line in /var/log/syslog with 10.0.0.1 in it and puts the line into /var/log/tomato and have the script run as a cron job, but that seems unnecessarily messy.
Unless someone knows that there is a solution, I'm 95% sure that syslog doesn't support this after reading more in-depth of the man page. So I need to migrate to syslog-ng or make a crazy script that runs with cron.

View 1 Replies View RelatedGeneral :: Syslog - Access Log Of Apache Not Working
Aug 11, 2011I am running a syslogd on my ubuntu 10.10 system. I have a apache2 server on the same machine. I have configured my apache2.conf file to send the error logs to the local syslog server.
The config is as under :-
LogLevel notice
ErrorLog syslog:local1
I have also configured the /etc/syslog.conf as under :-
local1.info /var/log/apache2/error_logs
I have created a file in the /var/log/apache2 dir with the ownerships and permissions as under:-
-rwxrwxrwx 1 syslog adm 77 2011-08-11 18:14 /var/log/apache2/error_logs
Next I restarted the sysklogd and apache2 servers with a service command as under:-
sudo service sysklogd restart
sudo service apache2 restart
I thereafter observed the /var/log/apache2/error_logs file and found the entries for apache2 closing down and coming up as under:-
Aug 11 18:14:14 cc apache2[4940]: [notice] caught SIGTERM, shutting down
Aug 11 18:14:19 cc apache2[5282]: [notice] ModSecurity for Apache/2.5.12 [URL] configured.
Aug 11 18:14:19 cc apache2[5282]: [notice] Original server signature: Apache/2.2.16 (Ubuntu) mod_ssl/2.2.16 OpenSSL/0.9.8o
Aug 11 18:14:20 cc apache2[5285]: [notice] Apache/2.2.16 (Ubuntu) mod_ssl/2.2.16 OpenSSL/0.9.8o Microsoft-IIS/5.0 configured -- resuming normal operations
Now the problem is I donot get any other messages thereafter. So it is hardly useful. How can I increase the logged messages from apache. I tried the facility:
local1.*
Then restarted the sysklogd and apache2, but the contents of the /var/log/error_logs file remained similar. Next, I followed the link. I created the perl script for recording access logs of apache2. I then restarted the apache2 and sysklogd. when I opened my website from a browser, the access log did not work. I think I am getting something wrong with the facility value , in apache2.conf it is ErrorLog syslog:local1 ! but the script is suggesting that it should be local2 in the line 4
openlog('apache','cons','pid','local2');
I therefore changed the script to local1 in above line. But still no access log?
