Ubuntu :: Ssh Script Into Remote Server - Get 0byte Files Logged
Nov 3, 2010
I have scripted this code to ssh into my remote server and log back some info.
Quote:
import sys, os, re, optparse, traceback, types, time, getpass
import pexpect, pxssh
import readline, atexit
begin = time.time()
os.system('nc -l 2222 > log%s &' %begin)
time.sleep(50)
child = pexpect.spawn ('ssh david@192.168.0.14')
child.expect ('password:')

When I'm logged on to another host (e.g via ssh), how do I connect to the XServer of that machine (same user is logged in and is running a desktop (gnome))?
You may ask way I wish to do that: There are commands that don't open an X-Window, e.g. xinput, xhost, etc.. and there are situations where you want to run them from remote.

I have searched some posts and did not see the problem i am having. I have built a 10.10 desktop. I need to place it in a building and will not log into it locally unless i absolutely have to. I want to be able to connect to the box and get a desktop if needed. I have been able to do that, but only when i have a user logged into the box. If i log out of the box, my VNC client will not connect. I am able to connect via SSH, but that is it. If i ever need to reboot the box for any reason, i do not want to have to drive across town to log back into the box locally. I have a vnc server installed and Open ssh. how i can connect to that box and get a desktop?

Is there a way gnome can allow a remote desktop / VNC connection if no user is logged in? If the server gets rebooted I can't access it (remote desktop / VNC). Someone physically has to go there and log in. Surely there must be a way as gnome is running just waiting for a login.

Allright, I made a simple script that tarballs my SQL databases weekly and saves them to a backup harddrive.If possible, I would like to have the backups uploaded to a remote server for storage. But, I must have the script delete the previous upload for size contraints.I can only use rsync, scp or sftp. Haven't used any of them really before... Here's my basic tarball-backup script:
Code:
#/bin/sh
# Dates the new tarballs of current builds.
DATE=`date +%m_%d_%Y`

I have a computer set up running an apache httpd server with the basic LAMP functionality. I logged into the server today and noticed numerous attempts by a remote IP to access various files on my server.
Code:
[Fri Nov 26 07:37:56 2010] [error] [client 72.167.161.46] File does not exist: /var/www/html/phpMyAdmin-2.8.1-rc1
[Fri Nov 26 07:37:56 2010] [error] [client 72.167.161.46] File does not exist: /var/www/html/phpMyAdmin-2.8.1
[Fri Nov 26 07:37:57 2010] [error] [client 72.167.161.46] File does not exist: /var/www/html/phpMyAdmin-2.8.2
[Fri Nov 26 07:37:57 2010] [error] [client 72.167.161.46] File does not exist: /var/www/html/sqlmanager
[Code]...
There are many many more lines similar to this but its obvious that a remote host was attempting to run my phpmyadmin page and gain access. My question is that since I'm a novice at running httpd what sort of things should I be looking out for in regards to security and configuration to prevent any attacks or is this common and should just be ignored? I do run phpMyAdmin on the server and have configured MySQL to not have blank passwords or user accounts. The database had no new changes to it so I doubt they actually accessed it.

I have limited access to several servers (key based auth) but cron facility is not available for me. Those servers getting filled up by large apache logs and I have to login to each node manually and clean them each and every day.
I tried to write a script to run from login box but when i try that it looks like it is looking for logs in the local server (login box).
So current situation is:
How can i modify this so that the script in server1 will look for files in that server and zip them?
Google showed another command called rsh but in my env it is also not avil.

I have a problem while copying files from a remote computer to my local one using the scp command. I am sure that I am using it correctly, please check it below:
---
blah@blah.com:~/g4work> scp blah2@blah2.com:IndirectMethod_Spher...s/H_1.mac.root .
---
What I get in return (instead of the statement saying 100% of file copied) is:
---
On this machine the G4SYSTEM=Linux-g++
---
The interesting point is that the above returned statement is one of the Environment variables set on both the machines that are necessary to work with a toolkit called Geant4. Here is what I get when I type 'printenv | grep G4' just to show you (note the statement in bold):

G4SYSTEM=Linux-g++
G4WORKDIR=/home/blah/g4work
---
The other thing that I would like to mention is that these Geant4 Env. Variables are loaded each time a new (bash) shell is started as a result of the bash login script.

If I need to append a set (or sets) of data to a file(or files) on remote hosts what is the best mechanism by which to do that? My first thought was ssh but the command syntax to append to a remote file isn't clear to me. Can anyone point me in the right direction here?

I read the log
Code:
I found this print out:
Code:
The line in bold is the security issue. There is only 1 user account on the system. There should only be 1 user logged in, not 2 users logged in. The remainder of the log file lists 1 user logged in, for similar log output. 2 users logged in does not appear again in the log file.
Does the second line of bold indicate that an attempt was made to log in to the system using SSH?
There was an internet connection interruption (no service) around the time of the log file event. The service did return, later.
Does that line indicate that an unauthorized user logged in to the system?

I need to write a shell script which can ready content of the folder and place files on remote FTP server. I need to make sure that a file that is already placed on remote FTP server is not attempted second time. The file names will be something like Records-2011-05-09. The files will be generated by MySQL every hour.

I'm a total Linux noob, but I've needed a working development server for a while so I've put together an old celeron box running Ubuntu Server 10.10.The box runs fine, as does the Apache and MySQL servers, even if they did take a little while to fine tune!The problem I have is that vsftpd doesn't respond unless I'm logged on locally or via putty. As long as a local user is logged in, it's fine. If I try to connect when noone is logged in, then the connection times out waiting for the server message, and thereafter I have to login and stop / restart the vsftpd to make it work again.I'm not sure if the vsftpd is set to run on boot or on login and I have no idea how to check. Vsftpd is set to allow only local users, of which there is only one - so I can't check if it would work with any user logged in

I setup logging in through putty client with keys, and password disabled, could log in from all machines on my network (xp and 7) with putty.When I finished hut down the server.Today I turned on the server box and thought I'd try logging in through putty. It kept telling me the server was rejecting my key.I plugged in a monitor and keyboard into the server and logged in via password then had no problem logging in through putty client.Question is, every time I shut the server down do I have to plug in the monitor and keyboard, then login, to be able to login remotely?

Possible Duplicate: Automatically start VNC server on startup I have a Linux server at home, and by default no-one is logged in to that box. I'd like to establish a remote desktop connection to it with VNC but this fails, unless I log in first physically. It's strange to me that VNC Viewer doesn't even ask for credentials, it just displays a "connection refused" error message. What's the best way to do this? I'm running Ubuntu 10.04 on the server.

I try to write a script which would kill processes of users who are not logged in. My approach is to find out what users are logged in and then kill processes of all nonsystem users who fail the test of being logged. I use `w` for finding all logged in users, but apparently there are users on the list which `w` gives me who own absolutely no process in the output of `ps aux`. How do I log off those users, since killing their processes wont work (since they own no processes)?

Been using CentOS for a couple of weeks and have a few quirks I need help with.
This is a fresh install of CentOS 5.5. I'd love for VNC Server to start up as soon as the computer reboots. It seems my VNC Server only works when I log in using the GUI at the computer itself. After a reboot I can remotely SSH into it successfully, but cannot VNC to it. I then have to physically get to the computer and log into the GUI, and wa-la I can VNC to it. I have not edited any conf files - seeing as my last attempt at getting this working got me nowhere. I have only enabled Remote Desktop through the GUI.

I recently installed FC14 as my server and is able to ssh and vnc into the server when locally logged in. If i logged out (at login screen) then i cant ssh or vnc into the server. It is pointless to have a server if i am not able to remote in via ssh and vnc.

I am looking for the syntax for a sendmail ruleset to log the message subject to the syslog service. I have found a few posts on the web, but none seem to work. The basic appear to be - add the following to the sendmail.mc file then compile the sendmail.cf file using M4. The syntax suggested follows (I believe the rewrite rule is incorrect)(I and using <T> to indicate tabs):
LOCAL_CONFIC
Klog syslog
HSubject:<T>$>Check_Subject
LOCAL_RULESETS
SCheck_Subject
R$*<T>$:<T>$(log Subject=$1<T>$)<T>$1
sendmail.cf compiles and when used as the config file for sendmail - everything appears to work, but no subject is logged.

We have 4 servers having rhel 5.2. We have several users logged in on one of them. We have nis server/client running on them and have common home area mounted on all of them. Now we want to disable/block the accounts of the users who have not accessed our servers in last 2 months from today.What logic should we apply to do so? We were checking stat of .bashrc of each user but is not correct logic. We are going to write shell script for the same. We dont want to do anything in users home area or their files.
