I have installed conky from soft manager after knowing its power today. I'm using 10.10. I want to design a conky script which monitor the network traffic ie total upload + download on monthly basis as I'm on limited internet plan which is too common here. I have free usage from 2am to 8am in the morning and want to exclude this traffic. So I'm in search of a custom script which can accomplish this.

this is the conky code I found, that displays on conky the way I like, problem is everything shows as 0bytes, and stays that way.
Code:
# UBUNTU-CONKY
# A comprehensive conky script, configured for use on
# Ubuntu / Debian Gnome
#
[Code].....
My conky file declares a color association with this
color5 green
and then after TEXT has this line
Code:
ISC: ${execi 60 /home/ben/scripts/isc.sh}
the isc.sh file has this
Code:
#!/bin/bash
curl http://isc.sans.org/infocon.txt | sed 'y/abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz/ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ/' > /tmp/isc
[Code].....
Why is it not displaying GREEN in the green colour? If I manually type ${color5}GREEN into .conkyrc its fine.
I have an Ubuntu server box with multiple NICs. I'd like to specify that all traffic bound for a certain IP range goes through one NIC, and everything else goes through the other. Does anyone know how to do that? I'm not a total newbie, but I'm also not a linux guru (but usually can google my way to a solution...usually).
ETA: Source and destination IP for routing.We have 1 NIC with a public IP, all public IP's should talk to it.Another NIC with a private IP, all private traffic should talk to this.In practice, I have some devices on a different subnet of the public IP range we have that will only talk to the private IP.
I want to explicitly commit bandwidth to only 3 VOIP connections, where a connection is defined as a source IP address, destination IP address, and a traffic class. I would like the traffic controller to put the first 3 VOIP connections into 3 different queues that would have equal priorities that are higher than Best Effort. If a 4th VOIP connection were to start, its packets would be put into the Best Effort queue. When one of the VOIP connections ends, I would like the incoming packets of a VOIP connection that is in the Best Effort queue (assuming there is one) to now start going into the free VOIP queue. Is it possible to do this? Can traffic control keep track of connections being created and deleted like that? If so, how is it done? I would like to avoid having to be constantly updating my filters whenever a connection starts/ends. In actuality, I would want to do this for several different classes.
View 2 Replies View RelatedWe have a need to shape outgoing traffic EXCEPT to certain IP/subnets (sounds opposite to the title, but not really :P), using iptables if possible. We've had decent luck doing it with various things, but one of the big problems is the decrease in download speed (which DOES NOT need to be shaped at all) due to upload shaping. ie, we want the shaping not to apply to TCP/UDP overhead. Semi related but probably not important is the ability to shape virtualised systems as well (ie the guests), but as the guest traffic goes through the host any traffic shaping done on/to the host should affect the guests as well.

I can't use trick with iptables -t mangle, ip route table 1, ip rule fwmark table 1 because it works only with forwarded packets. I can't even use patch-o-matic because it's obsolete. And xtables-addons doesn't contain support for "-j ROUTE" yet.
View 2 Replies View RelatedMy linux machine is connected to the outside internet, and I have a minecraft server running on an internal machine (192.168.1.201). Right now, I am forwarding port 80 on the linux machine to 192.168.1.30, which is working.
iptables -t nat -I PREROUTING -i eth0 -d 192.168.1.30 -j DNAT --to-destination 192.168.1.201
iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o eth0 -j MASQUERADE
iptables -A PREROUTING -t nat -i eth0 -p tcp --dport 80 -m state --state NEW,ESTABLISHED,RELATED -j DNAT --to 192.168.1.201
______________________________
I want to filter out the GET/POST requests and forward them to port 8080. I can't seem to get that working.
I've tried this:
iptables -A INPUT -d 192.168.1.30 -p tcp --dport 80 -m string --algo bm --string 'GET' -j REDIRECT --to-ports 8080
Recently I notice that when I'm connected to an vpn server (pptpd) and I'm using it as a default gateway my download and upload speed decreases almost to the half of the usual speed. I made a test using iptables in order to count how much GRE packets are generated (except the real traffic itself) in that way:
Code:
iptables -I INPUT -p gre -j ACCEPT
iptables -I OUTPUT -p gre -j ACCEPT
iptables -I FORWARD -s 172.16.10.101 -j ACCEPT
iptables -I FORWARD -d 172.16.10.101 -j ACCEPT
The first 2 rules match all GRE packets between the pptpd server and client, and the next rules - the traffic between the server and the client.
When I turn the counters to zero and begin to generate traffic (to browse, to download etc.) I see that the GRE packets are even more than these in the FORWARD chain.
So, my question is first of all is my test correct and is it true that so much gre traffic is being generated during the browsing (it becames clear that the traffic is double than if the pptpd wasn't used as a gateway) and if yes - can that traffic be reduced?
I am trying to build conky from SlackBuilds.org using sbopkg, but the build fails every single time. It may be worth noting that I am trying to build with extra options, namely --disable-x11 --disable-xdamage --disable-own-window --disable-xft.
This is so I can have a cli-only conky that I can pipe to my status bar. This has worked in the past, but now the build is failing with a seemingly unrelated error.
It states:
Code:
At the end of the build. I tried removing the option --enable-audacious, but that only resulted in an error which complained that yet another option (--enable-rss=yes) was a "Command not found". This continues as I remove options. I would like to keep many of those options active as I have a need for certain features.
This is a copy of the SlackBuild being used:
Code:
I have a full install of Slackware64 v13.1, so audacious is installed. I don't know what else could be going wrong, and I don't know why this worked in the past.
I have a linux router box with ubuntu which routes internet for several people. There is no extra traffic shaping, so everybody can get the whole bandwidth when its free. What I would like to have is a real time traffic counter per ip, just like a program called "iptraf" but on a per-ip basis. Iptraf can only count on a per-connection basis and thus cannot display a bandwidth that a certain ip has taken (because a single ip can start several onnections). So a console program with text interface like iptraf would be perfect - does anybody know about such a program? After some googling I came to the conclusion that such a program does not exist (which must be wrong - i think that per-ip real time traffic flow information is the first thing every router owner would like to know).
View 2 Replies View RelatedDoes anyone maybe know of a client app for Windows/Linux that polls the Linux (Ubuntu) Gateway and checks (in almost real-time) what the bandwidth usage is? Something like KInternet (which is SuSE only as far as I know) where you can see a graph showing how much kbps is sent and received per second.

View 5 Replies View RelatedWe have a production web site running apache 2.2.3 across several web servers. we also have a major problem with SPAM comments right now. our method of identifying valid IPs (whether by external clients/customers, or internal personnel) vs SPAM'ers is not ideal - its prone to erroneously labeling legit IP's as targets to be blacklisted.
What we need is.. a way to see how much distinct request traffic is coming from any given IP address to the site in real time (or very near realtime). Essentially we want to see in some graphic/chart way requests per sec to apache / per ip sorted by requests per sec.Would nTop do this? I've only used this in a limited form at a branch office, not on a production web server.
As too my question, at this time I dont control the router/firewall an I would like to block a port thats used for guild wars on my workstation for a while. The reason for blocking is children have abused it an lost it.In this case I am trying to block outgoing traffic on port 6112. I have tried setting up a proxy server on the workstation, but the game seems to ignore it an jump on. Due to the environment, I enabled the workstation SuSEFirewall2 firewall an tried setting up "lo" as a internal an configure the firewall as a router, then disable 0/0 an configured for 0/0,tcp,443 an re route port 80 traffic to proxy.
When I had my own internet, I had a transparent proxy enforcing rules for access times. So setting up a proxy on each machine would not be a bad thing, even if it took some creative thinking. I am trying, but seem to be missing something.Ideally, I would like to setup a transparent proxy, as my kids have learned alot about system administration an know to check the proxy module. If all they have to do is un check "Use Proxy" an by pass a local proxy server, then I am kinda defeated. An applications such as firefox have a proxy setting they could set to none instead of system
I'm trying to get a bash script to do different things based on the time of day, but at least once a day the test fails:
Code: Select allNOW=$(date +%k%M)
if [[ "$NOW" -ge 1000 ]] && [[ "$NOW" -le 2200 ]];then
alarm lon
else
alarm loff
fi
This is the error, and line 59 is the second quoted above:
Code: Select all/home/electrolux/bin/ts.sh: line 59: [[: 059: value too great for base (error token is "059")
The script is run every minute, and this error only occurs at 12:59AM, or 00:59.
I presume the problem is either $NOW is being set to 059, or the testing is seeing 0059 as 059. I think the latter, because for the rest of midnight 'til 00:58 the script works. And with some Googling it seems that the leading 0 is making test treat the number as octal... is there a way to tell it it is decimal?
Perhaps this is just some poor time-testing code? Looking at it I don't think it will cope with set time period that crosses midnight..... there's probably just a command to do what I want, isn't there? I know I could have two different scripts cron'd for the different time periods, but it would be much more preferable to be just the one.

I am trying to configure my Linux router to restrict Internet access for one computer on my LAN. It needs to be restrictive based on the time of day and the days of the week. I am using the MAC address of the computer to single out the one computer that needs to be blocked. However, this is my first attempt at making any rules with iptables, and I am not sure if I am doing this right. If some one can take a look at this I would greatly appreciate it. This is what I have done so far.
Here is my thinking. Create a new target. Check the MAC address, if it is NOT the offending computer return to the default chain. If it is the offending computer check that we are between the allowed hours and dates and ACCEPT. If we are not within the time/date range then drop the packet.
Code:
Here I am trying to route all packets regardless of the computer on the LAN into the blocked_access chain for checking.
Code:
Is it a good idea to route all traffic through the blocked_access chain? I do run other servers that are accessible from the Internet, so I am not sure how this setup will affect that. I also use shorewall on the router to setup iptables for me. How would I integrate this with shorewall?
I am using squid to block access when he is using the web browser. However, he is still able to play games(World of Warcraft) and the like.
I am using Debian sid, iptable(1.4.6), shorewall(4.4.6), kernel 2.6.32-trunk-686.
