Ubuntu Networking :: Capturing Data On .pcap File And Piping It
Jun 22, 2011
I have a GPS device which sends in data on port number 5000, i am able to capture the data into a pcap file using tcpdump. Now my problem is, i need to pipe the data into a text file as and when data arrives into the pcap file continuously.I did extensive search, but to no avail. been trying to solve this for the past 3 days. I use the following commands to capture and pipe the data, but that happens only once when i issue the command. I want this to happen continuously as and when the data arrives.

How to convert Tcpdump output file to a Pcap format? Is there such way?
This is what i mean:
tcpdump -i eth0 >> test.out
Now i want to convert test.out to Pcap so It's readable via Wireshark.

I remember there was a command that would allow me to pipe data to an app and the use the | operator to pipe it into yet another app.
foo fooArg | Iforget app1 | app2
I forget what this command is but it pipes the data from foo into app1 and app2.

As part of a research experiment, we need to use a web proxy and direct certain users from their computers through that web-proxy. Given that we do not have access to DHCP logs (this is on a college campus), we have asked each user to go through the proxy using a different port number so we can differentiate between them. Now as a result of doing this, the entire TCP packet is encapsulated as payload data within the captured packet (using tshark to capture the packets). Now I need to be able to parse the payload for statistics including the URL. I am not sure how best to proceed. I cannot find a utility that will just output the payload and then I can probably parse the output.

Minicom was running fine two days ago capturing data from a gage device via a serial cable. Yesterday, users of the data started complaining that they were not receiving any data.
The minicom status line reads offline. Is this part of the problem or is this normal (I never really noticed it before.) All settings on the gage device match the minicom settings.

I'm trying to capture incoming/outgoing phone call data. Both telnet and nc have allowed me to easily direct this data to a file for later processing, HOWEVER I can't seem to get either to work as a background process. I want to put the connection into a shell script and run from cron.

I'm trying to pipe from a textfile to sendmail.The command I'm using on teh sendmail server is:[root@sendmail-server test]# sendmail to-email-address@relay_server-address < test2.txt.I'm doing this because I was doing this from an aliases file just fine until about three weeks ago. The aliases file suddenly stopped working after the relay server received an inordinate amount of email from the From: address and for the To: address.

I am looking for an alternative to cat for streaming the output (ATSC) of a dvb card to a file. cat works fine for a bit but there is some internal variable that reaches a size limit and stops it. As evident by the c error "variable has reached size limit" (sorry for the paraphrase I do not have the error in front of me.) That is ok, a co worker who knows c told me the best thing to do is to find some other utility to do this. cat /dev/dvb/adapter0 > test.mpg is what I am looking to replace. how to pipe this into some sort of compression utility.

I would like to capture all output spewed to a terminal session including processes that are terminated that were invoked from a script running in a terminal window. this is beyond capturing just stderr and stdout . for example
{
./script
} 2> stderr.cap 1>stdout.cap
if script is terminated (including because of memory violations) I get spewed output to the terminal I would like to capture that spewing to a file automatically or to a bit bucket /dev/null Is there another filehandle which can be redirected to do this? If so how or is there another way???

I'm working on testing some software, and I have a question. We have several files of binary data that we need to push through our application to test. It communicates via simple TCP sockets. Is there a way I can send this data to the socket from the command line? I tried doing something like this, but telnet never picked up the data.

We purchased a new database system at work last October, ditching the old system because of a lack of support from the vendor. This is a retail Point of Sale and Backoffice database system. I am not sure what system the new one runs on, but the system we replaced was a Firebird data base. The reason I am posting is because we are now in need of the information contained in the old database which was not completely imported into the new system.
Basically the problem is this: The database in on a Windows XP system and I found a copy of SQL Manager Lite 2008 on the system, which after quite a bit of studying, I figured out how to extract the database into a removable file. I have this file (178MB) on a USB stick in a file called Backoffice.fbd.
My studying suggests to me that I can get into this database with MySQL. I have never used this and have no clue how to do this. All I want to be able to do get into the database and create tab deliminated spreadsheet files for each of the database sections (Customers, Repairs, Sales History, stock files, etc.) Is it possible to do this with Ubuntu and MySQL and if so, can expert suggest one or two things to get me started. While a guided tutorial would be nice because I am not an expert, I am willing to learn on my own if someone could point me in the right direction.

I have an application where I am sending data via serial port from PC1 (Java App) and reading that data in PC2 (C++ App). The problem that I am facing is that my PC2 (C++ App) is not able to read complete data sent by PC1 i.e. from my PC1 I am sending 190 bytes but PC2 is able to read close to 140 bytes though I am trying to read in a loop.Below is code snippet of my C++ AppOpen the connection to serial port
Code:
serialfd = open( serialPortName.c_str(), O_RDWR | O_NOCTTY | O_NDELAY);
if (serialfd == -1)

I am setting up rsyncrypto to create a backup of my user directory. I read that to exclude directories I need to exclude with find and pipe to rsyncrypto.
I am trying to exclude all .svn directories from getting encrypted and synced.
Here is the find command I'm using. I don't see any .svn directories in the output:
find ~/Documents -type d ( -name .svn ) -prune -o -print
But when I pipe the output to rsyncrypto I see lots of .svn directories getting encrypted.
find ~/Documents -type d ( -name .svn ) -prune -o -print | rsyncrypto -vc --trim=3 --filelist - /tmp/Documents/ Documents.keys backup.crt
rewrite the command to exclude from rsyncrypto any files/folders that have .svn in their path?

I have my .procmailrc file set up to pipe mail to a simple php script I've written. The only thing the script does at this point is echo back a "hello" message. However, procmail does not execute the script properly.

I have a bash script that I want to import in to Python, mainly just to see if I can or not. However in the script I do use some piping of commands into sed to trim it down to what I need. When I tried doing it with the os.system() call, it didn't work. The exact error is
sed: -e expression #1, char 16: unterminated `s' command
However the command that was run can be run in bash without an error. Is there a better/another way to do this? For reference the command is:
Code:
locate -n 1 wp-config.php | sed 's/wp-config.php/
/g' | sed '/wp-config.php/ d' | sed '/^$/ d'

kernel 2.6, slackware 12.0mkisofs 2.01If I do 'ls --help|more' all's well. 'mkisofs --help' outputs its help screen, and I can use Shift+PgUp/PgDn to scroll through it. But I can neither pipe it to more or to less, nor redirect it to some file. more is simply ignored. Less, gets into less but only the last screenful is seen. Redirection, i.e. 'mkisofs --help>john.txt' produces an empty file (size= 0).

New to ubuntu and shell scripting in general... currently I stored some data into a text file. Right now, I would like to output the data from the text file and store it into a variable. Here's what I have so far:
READ_FILE=$(cat $FILE_NAME)
This definitely works and READ_FILE has the necessary data. However, this command will trigger an output to std output and I will see data on the screen, which is not what I want. I tried:
cat $FILE_NAME | $READ_FILE
and various other variants of this. It does not output to std output but neither does anything gets stored into $READ_FILE. I tried:
cat $FILE_NAME >> $READ_FILE
and it arrived at an error of "ambiguous redirect".

I want to pipe the output of a command into grep as the search TERM, rather than the text to be searched, like this for example
Code:
cat /var/log/auth.log | grep date "&b &d"
so that I only see the lines in auth.log for the current day...but obviously that line doesn't work.... is there a way to do this with grep, or even another command?

Let's say I have a bash script called log.sh. In this script, I want to read in input from a pipe, but I also want to know the command used to pipe input into me. Example:
tail -f /var/log/httpd/error | log.sh
In the shell script, I want to know the command tail -f /var/log/httpd/error.

I want to attach an analog camera to an old linux computer and directly pipe the /dev/video0 to another computer, where I can use it as a device again (so /dev/video0 should go to /dev/remote0, for example)
(Reason for doing this is that the computer does not have enough power to encode the video)
Is that possible? I've seen people can pipe the data directly from the device over ssh into mplayer, but I need to have some sort of reference point for Zoneminder.

I am sure this has been covered before, however I do not know which terms to sue for searching for this, so I will try and explain it.
I have a program that I run at startup to connect me to my work VPN, specifically the Cisco VPN client. When running the program, it prompts me for my username and password. I would like to be able to automate the login process by piping the username and password into the program everytime it starts up (username and password cannot be passed as arguments to the program)
Something like echo username | echo password | vpn_script
