my computer is often very slow, to the point of stalling. I tty'd in and when I ran ps -ef I noticed about 10 /usr/sbin/apache2 -k start I dont even want 1 apache running. Any suggestions why these are running, or how to stop it? Well, I can stop it with a sudo killall, but how can I make sure it doesnt happen again?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI would like to do the following: Create a banner for any user logging in through ssh which warns him/her about the number of processors being used already by other users (or conversely the number of free processors). For example, if a user logged in he would then see a message like: Warning! 7 out of 8 processors are in use.I already figured out how to do a banner and with ps -e -o pcpu I can get all processes' %CPU usage. I think I would like to count the number of processes which have more than 90% CPU usage and output this number ("7" in the example) in the banner

I like that everything works out of the box (had to install codecs etc, but thats standard); but I dont like that there are 260 processes running. Is there a utility to stop unnecessary processes from running in Ubuntu 10.10? I used rcconf but there did not seem to be a whole lot of startup processes that were enabled. Yet somehow I am running 260 processes now.
Even if I log into fluxbox, I get 200+ processes running.
I list all the instances of a running process my doing:ps -ef | grep myprogramThis lists all them.how can I simply output a count of how many are running?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have written this script to monitor Apache2:
Code:
#!/bin/bash
#count lines that show apache2 but not the fgrep itself
let i=`ps aux | fgrep apache2 | fgrep -v grep | wc -l`
if [ "$i" -gt 0 ]
then
#log something

It has all been working fine until recently when Apache is becoming unresponsive. I manually ran ps to check and there were 3 processes. However when I ran apache2ctl graceful I got the message 'httpd not running, trying to start' Is there a better way to check if a daemon is up?
Does Debian 6 "Squeeze" automatically run boot processes in parallel if not how do I

Code:
me@stud1:~$ uname -a

Apparently I was logged in, and never logged out sometime:
Code:

but when trying to find out why I'm still logged in, I can't find it:
Code:
me@stud1:~$ ps faux |grep me

I have p1,p2,p3,p4 some processes created by me in C. p1, p2, p3 are started individually from several consoles. And I want process p4 to terminates processes p1, p2, p3 if they are running. Which is the easiest way to accomplish that? put all processes in the same process group and send from p4 a kill signal to the group. But I couldn't do that because I cannot call successfully setpgid(getpid(), 15000) from p1-p4. It's there some way to put them in the same group? the processes don't have a child-parent relationship, they are launched manually from consoles.

I post this to have a memo about how I looked into this problem. You can use this command to check what is hidden.
Code:
/usr/lib/chkrootkit/chkproc -v -p 3 | grep /proc/ | sed 's/.*(/proc/[0-9]*).*/1/'| xargs -n1 -I %%% cat %%%/cmdline
If it doesn't output anything, then nothing is hidden currently. This usually means that a process was started between the ps command and the /proc check of chkrootkit. You can check what those command(s) are by running the above in a loop, with high priority.

Does anyone know how to get rid of these false positives while retaining other functionality of chkrootkit?

Where the numbers are the number of processes being run by the user (the name right next to it).if I input the command egrep myFile into the terminal, it should look for every line with the letter x in myFile, right?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI was wondering if anyone might know of good reference material, books websites etc., that discuss network security issues in layman terms. I would like to set up a dedicated Linux box as a firewall and would like to have a deeper understanding of the different types of configurations that are possible. I run a dual boot system and most of the firewalls I have used on the Windows side are very confusing to me. A lot of the time they give you a pop up that informs you that some cryptically named program is trying to access the network or the internet and wants to know if I want it to or not, 99% of the time I have not idea if it is a legitimate program or not. I realize that this is probably a separate issue (knowing how to identify programs and processes that should have access from those that should not) from setting up a firewall and basic network security but I know that they are related.
View 3 Replies View RelatedThat would seem like an elementary feature to be able to enable only a few system applications access to the Internet. That would prevent trojans to download your HD for examples. I looked around and played with iptables but I couldn't not find anything that do the job. I loaded the xt_owner kernel for iptables but the --cmd-owner command is lacking. That was my holy grail but could not get --cmd-owner to work. iptables -I OUTPUT -m owner --cmd-owner "firefox" -j LOG --log-prefix "Testing " How can I protect my machine against the enemy within.
