Software :: Among Files There Are Wscript And Other Strange Scripts?
Sep 22, 2010
I downloaded Jack1.9.5 source but I don't know how to build it because the usual commands like ./configure,make don't find anything to do. Among files there are wscript and other strange scripts.
Yesterday I installed 11.4. First it did run very nice but now I am facing an odd problem: I am mounting on my new 11.4 box a folder via nfsv4 from an opensuse 11.2 server (updated to kernel 2.6.33.6).
I got some folders where the 11.4 cannot see files which are defenitely present on the server. They are completely invisible to the client! In one particular case I have eg. 108 files in the folder on the server, but the 11.4 box only sees 107. One is missing. It does not show up using ls and I also can't access it blindly using eg. cat. The file does not differ from all the others in that folder regarding permissions/ownership/acls etc. It is also not big (1728 bytes) nor is it a special file (link/socket etc.just a plain C header file). That single file is just not visible when mounting with nfsv4 on the 11.4 box. When mounting it with nfs3 instead the file is visible. But for obvious reasons I want to stick with nfsv4.
I restarted all nfs related daemons on both the server and the client a couple of times but it does not make any difference. I also cannot find any problems in any log files on the server or client up to now. I rebooted the client but not the server (I can't do that right now as it is in heavy production).
I do not see these problems with other opensuse boxes running 11.0/11.2 or 11.3 in my network. They can see/access these files quite nicely. This is really strange. Does any have a clue what is going on here or how I can narrow that problem down?
I am currently seeing strange files in the folder structure on one of my servers * CentOS release 5.5inal)* #1 SMP Tue Jan 4 17:11:58 EET 2011 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/LinuxThe files in question are as follows : -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 117 Feb 3 16:57 -z present in too much random directories when i list a file structure even in a directory i have not been in there is such a file in it.Has anyone ever encountered this type of factor and if possible i would like some advice on dealing with the removal of these files and rectifying the settings that are making them / creating them.
I have installed Recoll 1.13.01 on my Ubuntu 10.04 box. I selected certain file directory trees to index and when I build the index using the gui it seems to work fine based on my limited testing. So far, so good.I planned to add a step to my nightly cleanup, backup and other housekeeping script to update the Recoll index. The command in question is recollindex While testing the command line indexing I found that an OLD password protected Windows zip file caused it to throw a bunch of errors. It appeared to continue. I located the offending file and as it was already backed up to DVD media and deleted it. I have also found a couple of other offending files which make me wonder about the robustness of this application.
The next case I had a file Session 12a.odt which for some reason was of 0 bytes - don't know why - perhaps I was just starting to write this document and never put anything in it.
Recently I've been finding two strange-looking files on my Windows shared folders! Their names are 'khy' and 'qffhtx.exe', they appear as hidden, and they're hard to delete!! especially the first one because it has no extension. I use Ubuntu 10.10, but I am worried because I also dual-boot Windows XP. Today I tried to open the .exe file in nautilus to see what is inside and I received the message "Unable to open archive", 'khy' is apparently an empty text file. Then I unmounted my /home partition so my files are out of the way, and I ran the .exe file using WINE,
Now I have a strange-looking applet on my top panel!! and it says "Script paused", also it says "Exit', and also Wine command prompt says something strange about "LockWindowUpdate", don't imagine it I'll post the screenshots so you can see it for yourselves. Also --and this is weird-- the virus apparently is trying to call a Windows process named csrcs.exe!! Again, I'll post the screenshots.
If this is a virus, then it's like a fish out of the water on my Ubuntu, it's probably trying to do something but it can't find its way around, it's kinda funny, but Im worried because I also dual-boot Windows XP, I'm having a hard time trying to remember the name KHY, it's a very weird acronym, it's the acronym of a disease, according to what I googled, i'm sure it's a virus!!! Anyway it's HARD to remember!!!
what can I do about this? How can I see the "script"? can Ubuntu kick its ***?how can I clean my Windows?
Trying again here.. no-one on reddit seems to respond..It initially happened here (it was deleted, you can try the lower links.) Sometimes one, sometimes both of these links gets me to 'attack sites', it starts with both, then to one, and then neither does it. I am on Debian Lenny, Both Iceweasel 3.0.6-3(firefox), epiphany2.22.3-9, elinks0.11.4-3 and firefox 3.6.3 sometimes do this for me. It doesn't seem to happen if you enter it into the adress bar, but it does when you follow it by clicking.[URL]..Someone else reported it too, from XP w/ Firefox. The adress bar tells me it is subreddits.org the but the screen doesn't. (Worry my computer is compromised..)
Links it send me too, something on 89.248.174.24, orcug.com, thindx46td.xorg.pl and a whole range of varying other sites. http://i.imgur.com/d7ZGv.png So can you reproduce/any idea what this could be? I do worry about having some malware on firefox and such, also besides this, but as i said, it happens with other browsers. I have add-on flashblock, noscript, redditreveal, socialite, trackmenot, had tree style tab until i found it wasn't usefull enough. I also noticed that control+k gets me to bol.com (wtf is up with that??), and there was the random site you get to when you misclick.(Which i was able to disable.) I am gradually getting more and more pissed off and suspicious about firefox. (as on my computer.)
Firefox also seems start reading/writing from disk suddenly. (I use iotop when i think it shouldn't be writing sometimes.) Perhaps i should try set something up to record what writes to disk.
Anyone know what the 'ls' command means when it outputs the file name in red on black, with the permissions, owner, etc. all missing? The 'man' page was of no help. In the example below, from a DVD ROM, the third file was OK and I could read it. The first two could not be read, even as root.
For some reason, the desktop for Fedora 12 has the following closing tag:
Code: </body> <
I have just installed Fedora 12, and I am using GNOME. Even the live disc had the tags. I had assumed that after installing the software to the hard disk I would be rid of the problem. Apparently I was wrong. Google does not seem to bring up a solution. Has anyone else encountered this?
It scrolls jerky and sometime wont stop scrolling even after i only pushed the up or down arrow one time. it freezes up and take minuets to switch tabs or post to sites etc.Could this be a video driver issue? Or a Firefox issue? I am running Ubuntu 9.10 latest patches on and IBM R51
I downloaded and installed the latest Firefox 3.6 on my Debian machine, but got this strange error when I fired it up for the first time:Code:firefox-bin: 1: Syntax error: "(" unexpected
This happened to me first time when i installed VLC Player,and now it happens in QT Designer too I dont know if its relevant,but when i installed Ubuntu,i installed it in Serbian language (cyrilic) and than switched to English.
notice at line 81 it goes rather strange - this goes on for another 9000 odd lines and looks like the set script is broken out and cat-ing to the screen - can't prove this as I've not been able to find the set script that is invoked...e.g.
uname@Sol:~$ set |head -200 BASH=/bin/bash BASHOPTS=checkwinsize:cmdhist:expand_aliases:extgl
I had an odd thing occur after a fresh install of Ubuntu 10.04. I installed Windows 7 on its partition, and all went fine. Then I installed Ubuntu on its partition and everything was as it should be. Then I did the Ubuntu updates and now my boot window looks like this ... I can click on any of the Ubuntu logins and it takes me to the same place.
I noticed yesterday, after what must have been the most recent updates, that my display now has a dark striped bar running down the right hand side of the display. It runs between the indicator applet and the deleted items bin on my standard Gnome desktop. I know it's not my monitor since I can see both of those items but maximised applications will not fill this area, even though the cursor is visible there.I've tried changing a number of display options but to no avail.
About an hour ago I completed the Network upgrade to Maverick from Lucid. Immediately I see some changes over Lucid: my computer can now hibernate successfully, a feature that worked in Hardy, but was broken in Karmic and Lucid. But a small annoyance is the strange colors. There is an abundance of purple colors in icons, in links, in indicators. I have attached a small snapshot of my browser. The circled purple area should be blue in normal contions.
I upgraded to Ubuntu to 11.04, but when I now open firefox and go to localhost, some PNG images have really strange colors. This is not the case when I display the webpage in Google Chrome. I'm not sure if I will have similar problems with all PNG's, but I wouldn't be surprised. For instance, a random PNG in Firefox 4:
And the same image in Chrome: What could be the problem? How do I solve this? This only seems to hapen with alpha transparent images!
exec, a option of find command, takes a odd format as followsfind ... -exec command {} ;Is there any explaination about why it takes this kind of format, orsome obscure implication?
I am reciving a strange backtrace furing the boot process of an IBM thinkpad 600 with debian lenny. The errors appear to be in the 'cs' module, but I'm not sure. Also the "Waiting for /dev to be fully populated..." script in which the backtrace occours also hangs and hasto be Control-C'd, or you have to wait for it to time out. Attached is my syslog
I've lately been getting some strange nfs mount requests for non existant users' home directories on a F14 machine to my file server (CentOS).The message log on the file server shows the following
May 23 03:10:53 data mountd[4835]: can't stat exported dir /export/home/httpd: No such file or directory May 24 03:21:13 data mountd[4835]: can't stat exported dir /export/home/httpd: No such file or directory May 25 03:26:53 data mountd[4835]: can't stat exported dir /export/home/httpd: No such file or directory
looking at my router logs i've noticed for the past while a range of source ports from 60000 to about 65000 from my source external ip to destination external ip always on port 80. I have 3 boxes on this network and this only seems to happen when i connect the one laptop. I even reinstalled the distro downloaded from trusted source but the router is still logging this.. netstat -ntulp shows nothing operating in this range. chkrootkit shows nothing.. Was thinking maybe someone was spoofing the external address but it's been happening on network startup for a month now
I've a strange regression with Slackware 13.37 and Emacs. In Slackware 13.1 (and all previous versions since I started with Slackware 11), Emacs in X-windows looks good regardless of the window manager. I've attached a show of Emacs in Slackware 13.1 to show what I mean. Notice the nice logo and fonts. In Slackware 13.37, the logo is missing and the fonts are different in KDE (and Window Maker). The logo is back and the fonts look good in XFCE (and TWM). See the other attachments.
I'm using Slackware64 with the KDE desktop. Sometimes, when I start KDE, I have a strange display bug that affects the background. Not a serious bug, only annoying. Here's a screenshot to get the idea: [URL] Usually, it's sufficient to logout and log back in to restore things to normal.
