View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a network of 2 WinXP machines and one linux box. I have fiddled around with the settings as you do when learning. The network is working. The network neighbourhood on the WinXP machines recognise the linux box and vice versa, (the linux Places|Network recognises the 2 WinXP). I can Ping the linux box using its hostname from a WinXp. But I cannot do the reverse. I get an 'unknown host' response. I can ping the linux to itself using its hostname.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI am running a scan via nmap (nmap -sP) and the out put looks similar to this:
Nmap scan report for x.y.z.com (10.x.x.x)
Nmap scan report for 10.x.x.x
If it can resolve the hostname it does, if not it just spits out the IP. I would like to know the best syntax to use with cut, or awk, so that the only output is either the IP or IP - HOSTNAME.
the difference between $HOSTNAME and $(hostname)?

I have a script that is in Unix. I wanted to know is there any difference between output of ls command in unix and linux
In Unix
Code:
ls -ltr | awk '{print $9}'
In linux output is something similar to
Code:
drwxrwxrwx 2 vinay vinay 4096 2010-02-04 20:31 test
According to above output nothing will be displayed for
Code:
ls -ltr | awk '{print $9}'
ls -ltr | awk '{print $8}' will give test as ouptut in Linux.
I wanted to check the output format for ls -ltr, Anyone using Unix systems may paste a sample output of the command ls -ltr..

If I grep -nr sumthin * in my source code directory, it also spews out very long lines from minified JavaScript or CSS files. I want to get just the first 80 characters per line. For example, a regular grep gives me this:

What Linux command can do this?
This seems so simple when doing it from command line but I'm not able to accomplish it inside a script. I am trying to put output of following command into a text file:
CMD= mysql -uroot -psecret -e 'SHOW SLAVE STATUS G;'
FIL=~/replication-`date +%F`.txt
MAILTEXT=~/mailtext.txt
touch $FIL
$CMD > $FIL
Where FIL is a variable that contains path of the file to which to output command. I am running this command in a shell script from where I want to email contents of $FIL as attachment using mutt. But I am always getting 0 byte file. Also if I examine in directory the file is of 0 byte length.
I'm trying to do something like this:
Code:
#!/bin/bash
cmd1=$(cat /var/log/messages | grep -e 'blocked for more than 120 seconds' | cut -c 55-62)
if $cmd1 != 0; then echo 'okay'; fi
however i'm messing up somewhere... bash attempts to evaluate the elements in cmd1. when I try to run this script it complains saying:
Quote:
test1.sh: line 5: blocked: command not found
I am open to alternatives. My intent is to replace cat /var/log/messages with dmesg, so I can attempt to determine if a problematic application I use encounters a blocked state (unresponsive for more than 120 seconds).
Should I be using a different test condition? I tried something like:
Code:
# this declares cmd1 as an array
cmd1=($(cat /var/log/messages | grep -e 'blocked for more than 120 seconds' | cut -c 55-62))
#attempt to determine if number of elements in array is greater than zero
if ${#cmd1[@]} > 0; then echo okay; fi
But I get the same error... what am I doing wrong?
I am writing a bash shell script on RHEL. I need a way to analyze the output from a command, and provide a response to that command depending on what is found.
On the command line this looks like:
In other words I want to script this - capture the output from the mlsmailbox --delete command, respond with a yes if the mailbox was found, and go on if it was not found. There may be other responses to the mlsmailbox --delete command that I need to analyze and respond to as well.
I would like to get the command and it's output redirected i have tried using the below but my syntax seems to be incorrect .

$(ls)
