View 1 RepliesI just installed Arch Linux with Gnome and gdm is set to boot into gnome as soon as it boots.
But I realized that the barebone gnome package that I installed doesn't include a terminal or a text editor so I can't install anything further or modify the rc.conf file to make it boot without gdm.
Is there a way for me to kill x from the Gnome interface?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm using something like this to send file from one computer to another:To serve file (on computer A):
cat something.zip | nc -l -p 1234 To receive file (on computer B): netcat server.ip.here. 1234 > something.zip can I do the opposite? Let's say I have file on computer B and I want to send it to A but not the way I wrote above, but by making computer that's supposed to receive file (A) be 'listening' server and connect computer that's 'sending' file (B) to server and send the file? Is it possible? I think it might be but I'm not sure how to do this.
In case my above explanation is messed up: How do I send file TO 'server' instead of serving the file on server and then taking it FROM it (like I did above)?
I've always been curious about this but say that you had computer A which runs headless and had music that you wanted to hear from computer B. Sure you can setup vlc or icecast on computer A and stream it. But what if you could forward the sound over netcat. For example, say when you play a sound file on Computer A data gets sent to /dev/snd.Would be possible to do something like the following.
Computer B
nc -lvp 6666 > /dev/snd
Computer A
cat /dev/snd | nc -v -w 5 computer_b 6666
And be able to hear sound playing on Computer A? point me in the right direction to find out about how to do this?
II'm a front-end web developer, I've always developed on Windows with technologies like XHTML, CSS, Javascript and Flash, I've dabbled with PHP and MySQL. I am well used to Windows workflows and tools, from Photoshop to Notepad++, Filezilla and WAMP server stacks to After Effects, and a swathe more - but always on Windows.I'm at a point where I think I need to start seriously developing on a Linux box, specifically at the moment to create web apps based on Node.js, but compiling tools and programs has become a task I'm more frequently required to do.
My question? I need to get my hands on a user-friendly install of Linux, but which one? I need common interface developer tools (lists welcome) to replace... well as many tools I have on Windows as possible.I need to be readily connected to the internet, I need OS updates to not destroy my workflow by crashing the OS, as I've seen Ubuntu do to various friends. I want efficiency, I need to be able to customise what I need to in order to perform development tasks.I guess this could be a long list, but - I don't have practical working knowledge of the Linux OS, nor how it "compares" to Windows (excuse my faux pas). I'm obviously willing to learn, but I'm far, far more keen to just... continue interface development, just on Linux instead of Windows.

I am new in linux. I am using opensuse 11.4. How can I ping a DNS using netcat?
View 6 Replies View RelatedHow can i send udp packet to the DNS using netcat in opensuse.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI'm wondering if I can use netcat to listen to a UDP port and display ALL incoming packets, no matter where they're from. If I just do 'nc -u -l 1234' then netcat will listen for incoming packets and connect() to the source address of the first one it sees (I can see this with strace). Is there any (standard) way to stop the connect() call? I can make a hack to block connect() with a function of my own, but that'd be ugly
View 6 Replies View RelatedI am having a very strange problem with GRUB: it refuses to boot from certain partitions, and in a very strange way. This is what I've noticed so far:When using GRUB in the default OpenSUSE 11.3 graphical interface and trying to boot it, GRUB almost always gives me Error Message 16: Inconsistent filesystem structure. The GRUB manual says that "This error is returned by the filesystem code to denote an internal error caused by the sanity checks of the filesystem structure on disk not matching what it expects. This is usually caused by a corrupt filesystem or bugs in the code handling it in GRUB. " I've ran fsck on all the partitions and neither of them has any corruption. When I switch to the non-graphical GRUB window, the message changes to Error Message 18: "Selected cylinder exceeds maximum supported by BIOS".
The GRUB manual says that "This error is returned when a read is attempted at a linear block address beyond the end of the BIOS translated area. This generally happens if your disk is larger than the BIOS can handle (512MB for (E)IDE disks on older machines or larger than 8GB in general). " However, I haven't touched any BIOS settings when the problem started to appear, and the BIOS is brand new anyway so it doesn't have such limits. When I try to boot directly from the command line, it roots to the boot partition just fine, but refuses to load the kernel, giving me the error 16 again.
When I try to boot Windows from the non-graphical GRUB list, it gives me the error 18 again, but it always succeeds when I do all the booting directly from the command line. One time I was able to boot Linux from the command line by using rootnoverify instead of root, but never again since then. One time it didn't boot Windows even from the OpenSUSE graphical interface, error 18 again. Sometimes it boots even Linux just fine, but it happens quite rarely now. The problems started appearing just recently, and without any reason that I could think of. I also ran setup again in order to reinstall GRUB, and it worked for one boot, but not any more...
My partition list is like this:
(hd0,0) Windows 7 boot, NTFS, primary
(hd0,1) Windows 7, NTFS, primary
(hd0,2) Windows XP, NTFS, primary
(hd0,3) Extended
(hd0,4) /root, EXT3, logical

I'm trying to redirect nc command output but I can't do it.
I have tried this:
And this:
But it seems doesn't work.
I've tried to use netcat in the past and assumed it was my stupidity that was preventing it from working... but this is getting ridiculous. I'll execute nc -l 3333 on a server at 192.168.0.105 (after opening it on the firewall of course) then I run nc 192.168.0.105 3333 on my laptop (from 192.168.0.101). and nothing happens... i start typing and nothing comes up on the terminal.
I run nc -z 192.168.0.105 80 which should ideally do a port scan of port 80 on that server (of which I'm running a web server that clearly works) but it doesnt even give me any feedback. Nothing happens. Now when I use the verbose flag i see that I am indeed connecting to the specified port on the server successfully (so the port scan one is a success but only with the verbose flag... which shouldnt be the case I believe). But still once I have the server listening and the laptop connected... I type in both windows and nothing happens...
OK here's what I'm doing:
On terminal 1, I enter:
$ nc6 -vlp 5000
nc6: listening on 0.0.0.0 5000 ...
On terminal 2, I enter:
$ nc6 -v localhost 5000
nc6: ygt-asfandq (127.0.0.1) 5000 [5000] open
Now, as SOON as I make the connection on terminal 2, both netcats immediately quit back to the command prompt. The return code for both is 0.
I do not have ANYTHING in my firewall (I checked with sudo iptables -v -L)

Here is my problems :I have two networks :1. LAN (10.1.x.x subnet 255.255.0.0), and2. my internet public (IP 202.xx.xxx.xxxx subnet 255.255.255.240)I have an application in my LAN PC (10.1.2.240) which broadcast udp packet to its client. The client in my LAN can receive the udp packet, no problem.My question is how netcat/socat can RELAY the udp broadcast packet to one of my IP public address so the message can be received by other client from internet ?
View 5 Replies View Relatedi have 3 servers in 2 dcs as follows; server 1 (dc1 - dmz) --- server 2 (dc1 - internal) --- server 3 (dc2 - internal) Now I have an application in server1 that have to connect to port 44000 in server 3 but dc refuse to open connection saying they do not open connections between dmz and dc2 (i have no say over this).
However I can connect to virtually any port from server1 <-> server2 and also server2 <-> server3. Is it possible to do something like;
server1 <-> server2 <-> server3:44000 using nc to get the app work.
I made a simple proxy using netcat and it works great, the idea is to make the server and client communicate through two named pipes, file1, file2.
$ mknod file1 p
$ mknod file2 p
$ nc -l -p 12345 0<file1 1>file2 &
$ nc 192.168.2.118 80 1>file1 0<file2 &
The problem Im facing is that I cant seem to intercept the data going between the client and the server. I want to be able to have the data coming to the server in a variable, manipulate it and send it to the client, and the other way, have the data coming to the client in a variable, manipulate it and send it to the server.
Im running on an embedded device where tee, awk and many other commands are absent. how can I redirect the data to a variable, manipulate it and pass it to the other side, that is the question.
I am running somes instances of Redis. I want to get Redis stats with following command:
Code:
$ echo "info" | nc <server_IP> <port>
but sometime it returns nothing. The first thing come to my mind is broken pipe or something like this. I always get the result if telnet to Redis and typing 'info' command. I also try pipe viewer to monitor the progress of data but it didn't help:
Code:
$ echo "info" | pv | nc <server_IP> <port>
So I opened a terminal and fired up netcat.I only wanted to view the Foreign Ip Addresses so I used
Code:
netstat --tcp --numeric | cut -c 45-65
and that gave me[code]...
There are two things that I am trying to accomplish here. The first is that I would like to "cut" the first three horizontal lines so that the output is only ip addresses.I tried tail but the number of different IPs changes so it still gives me those top lines. I tried head but that doesn't seem to give me any output at all.The second thing I would like to do is to filter out duplicate values. For example the output above has 2 duplicate entries of 66.102.7.101:80
I am trying to write an irc bot to run interactive fiction games in a channel. I am connecting to the channel using nc. I'm having a hell of a time trying to supply input stdin for nc after the connection is established. Here's what's going on. I've got lines of plain text in a file with the irc commands required to identify the bot's ID and join the channel. I can connect easily using any of the following commands
cat inputfile | nc irc.servername.org 6667 -i 1
nc irc.servername.org 6667 -i 1 < inputfile
Named_Pipe | nc irc.servername.org 6667 -i 1
cat inputfile > Named_Pipe
With the first two commands nc connects, reads the file with some time between each line allowing the irc server to respond, bringing me into the channel. It then begins to receive stdin from the command line allowing me to do things like "privmsg #channelname :Hello World!!!" sending messages to the room. This is not the desired behavior. I require nc to take additional stdin from the inputfile if I cat additional text to the end of it.
The last set of commands using the named pipe seem like it does the same, but it doesn't actually send anything to the room, which indicates to me that perhaps nc is continuing to take stdin from the named pipe (this is the desired behavior) rather than dropping to the console for stdin. If I try to cat more plain text data to the end of the named pipe, however, either with something like "echo 'privmsg #channelname :Hello World!!!' > Named_Pipe" (or >> instead of >) or with a filename in place of the "echo" command the whole command simply seems to hang until I press ctrl-C.
I don't understand what I'm doing wrong. With anonymous and named pipes, and with redirection, the problem seems to be the same. nc seems to take it's stdin from the file until it hits the end of file, at which point I can no longer introduce new lines of plain text as stdin for the running nc process.

Ultimately my DB will run in VM2 and any DB requests coming in at 2055 of VM1 should be forwarded to port 2055 of VM2. Since I do not yet have a DB running I am trying to test with netcat.

Strange issue here when trying to verify firewall on Server 8.04. No ftp service running at all on server, but both nmap and netcat report port 21 as being open, even though it isn't.I am 100% sure that port 21 is not actually accessible and iptables rules are fine. Trying to connect to the port fails, yet nmap and netcat seem to report a "false positive"?Have also checked on a number of other servers I'm running, and this "false positive" seems to apply to all of them.
