I've tried hardy to grab URL adress from my firefox "address bar" with bash. Is there any way to capture current url adress(or current url location, or current domain) from any decent browser (or by listening to own traffic.)

I'm having an issue configuring eth0. I'm using ubuntu 8.10 in a virtual machine (VirtualBox). The correct adapter is being used and it has worked in the past. I've tried placing eth0 in dhcp through the GUI and bash, but always get a 169 address or 127.
When I run the following command:
Code:
The output is:
Code:
X crashes and reports a segmentation fault, address nil. I've been using the generic Radeon driver without any problems, until now.
View 14 Replies View RelatedI've got some bash scripts that I'm testing which operate on different screen sessions under different usernames. In order to check the status of them, however, I have to attach the screen sessions to my current terminal.
I run into problems, though; I only allow SSH to my machine from one username; the others shouldn't need SSH access. So, I log in as one user, and su into whichever user I need. Without performing a chmod o+rw on the terminal before I su into a different user, screen complains that it can't reattach to my terminal, because the user trying to make it attach doesn't have the permissions to do so.
Seeing as I forget to do this a lot, I wanted to make a script that I'd run on log-in to do this for me. Unfortunately, I don't know if there's a bash variable that refers to the current terminal - I can't always guarantee that I'll be logging in to /dev/pts/0, especially if my internet connection gets cut and I leave a hanging terminal...
Is there a variable for that or a way to refer to it in a script? If not, how do I work around that?
I recently upgraded my -current box, and now when I try to run sbopkg I get the exact error described in the following thread:[URL].. The error fwiw is as follows:
root@catbutt:~# sbopkg
ERROR
sbopkg: Invalid repository descriptor
Line
SBo 13.0 "SBo repository for Slackware 13.0" _SBo rsync slackbuilds.org::slackbuilds/13.0 GPG
of
/etc/sbopkg/repos.d/40-sbo.repo
specifies an unknown fetching tool (rsync).
seems likely given the discussion in that previous thread that the bash upgrade (to 4.1.002) in the recent -current onslaught is responsible?
I would like to save the input of gtkterm ( what is displayed from its window) to a file, and this iautmatically. Because from GTKterm you can rsave raw file by clicking "save every to raw file manually". As it's say on the readme file, you can use "gtkterm -f filename.txt", but i tried and any file is created on the current directory.

View 2 Replies View RelatedThis should be a simple thing to accomplish, but I can seem to figure it out. Essentially, I want to have a bash alias or function that will let me recursively grep the current directory. A while back I added this to my .bashrc:
Code:
alias rg="grep -r --exclude=*/.svn/* --exclude=*.swp"
This works fine, (and also ignores any svn and vim swp files), and I can call it like:
Code:
rg foo *
However, 99.999% of the time, I am only interested in searching in the current directory, so the "*" is a bit redundant. Also, I would say 5-10% of the time, I am typing faster than thinking and forget the "*", so grep just sits there trying to read from stdin. It's a pretty minor thing, but ideally I'd like to be able to just type:
Code:
rg foo
I've tried creating a function to handle this:
Code:
function rg(){
grep -r --exclude=*/.svn/* --exclude=*.swp $1 *
}
but it behaves exactly the same as the alias above. escaping the "*" with 's doesn't work, and neither does trying `pwd` (or even a hard-coded path) in its place.
I would like to keep track of not only what bash commands I used and when, but also where they were issued from, i.e. what was the current working directory when I issued "foobar" on a particular day and time. Can we ask bash history to keep track of working directories too? I have tried to get an idea of this reading the enormous "man bash", but I don't seem to have an answer yet either way.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI am trying to write a bash script that would save the current state of my konsole terminals and sessions. I'm using KDE3.X and for some reason the "profile" save does not save the current working directories... Anyway, I would like to know if there is an elegant way to obtain the current workdir of each terminal and session ? I've managed to do something with a clever use of DCOP extended functions, but it requires me to start every konsole with the --script option enabled, and I don't want to do that.

I want to get only the IP address of the machine and store it in a variable.
I have tried following commands and I get an error:
Error is -
Version 10.04 LTS. Installed desktop version and network worked but I needed a static IP address and the install configures for a DHCP configured address. I tried changing to static address using the System->Preferences->Network Connections application but was unable to get the system to come up with the network up.
So I manually modified the /etc/network/interfaces and the /etc/resolv.conf files. I restart the system but when I do an ifconfig, I don't see a configured IP address on eth0 (only the loopback address). If I run /sbin/ifup eth0 everything then works fine and ifconfig shows the correct address bound to eth0.
My files are as follows:
I'm running Ubuntu 10.10 and I'm having problems trying to assign it a static IP address. No matter what I put in the Preferences->Networking area (identifying the interface as Manual)... it still will query DHCP for an address if I run the dhclient command. I'm using to using ubuntu server where I just set the IP in the interfaces config file.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am running my own Postfix mail server. Some time ago I noticed that most email was rejected because of the server's dynamic IP address. So I got a fixed IP address. However then I noticed that some mails got rejected due to failing the reverse DNS check. So my ISP told me to get a range of IP addresses and they could then create a PTR record for one of those addresses. That is now running but it turns out that the IP address used for the PTR record is a ... dynamic IP address. So Spamhaus PBL rejects my emails again.

I have a dedicated control computer that can only be accessed with web-browser (with its ip-address). My DHCP-server gives a static ip-address to the control computer (base on its mac-address). Somehow and after some time the control computer looses its ip-address (can't ping to it any more) ... and then I have to reset the control computer to get it to pick up the ip-address ... this is not a good solution since the control computer is not nearby. is there a way to force the control computer to renew its ip-address based on its mac-address
View 1 Replies View RelatedMy security software has picked up multiple port scanning detections on my router/network and only the IP addresses are available. Is it possible to find out what the remote mac address is to see if the IP source has been spoofed? I've got a couple of different IP sources which were found scanning my ports.
I don't know if my IP and the remote IP address are on the same network or subnet for that matter which is the reason for my wanting to know what the mac address is to find out if its coming from the same remote machine.
