Commands using cat

I must monitorize a couple of ftp servers every morning WITHOUT a port-scanner

Instead of ftp'ing on 100 ftp servers manually to test their status I use this loop.

It might be adaptable to other services, however it may require a 'logout' string instead of 'quit'.

The file ftps.txt contains the full list of ftp servers to monitorize.

Col 1 is swapped sum in kb

Col 2 is pid of process

Col 3 is command that was issued

i wanted to delete all duplicate lines from .bash_history and keep the order of the other lines.

the command cat's the file and adds line numbers, then sorts by the second column. afterwards uniq omits repeated lines, but skips the first field (the line number). then it sorts by the line numbers and at the end cuts the numbers off.

cat - concatenate MP3 files and save it...

Searches all log files (including archived bzip2 files) for invalid user and PAM authentication errors, both of which are indicative of brute force attempts at logging into computer. A list of all unique IP addresses and domain names is appended to hosts.deny. The command (and grep error messages) will work on Mac OS X 10.6, small adjustments may be needed for other OSs.

This should work on any unix platform running bash. Just type the program into cat and give it a ^D when you're done, at which time it will compile, run, and remove the program. Obviously, you can run it without the "rm a.out" if you'd like to keep the binary. If you want to keep the source, well, you might as well just write it in vi or emacs first then.

If you're on a system that doesn't have nl, you can use cat -n.

Well its just appending your public key to the remote hosts authorized_keys, but can get messy logging in and out

Yep, is hard, but is a way more flexible using pipe.

Now put more interesting stuff on the script in replacement of hostname, even entire functions, etc, and stuff.

hosta> cat myScript.sh

#!/bin/sh

[ $1 == "client" ] && hostname || cat $0 | ssh $1 /bin/sh -s client

hosta> myScript.sh hostb

hostb

hosta>

It's not a big line, and it *may not* work for everybody, I guess it depends on the detail of access_log configuration in your httpd.conf. I use it as a prerotate command for logrotate in httpd section so it executes before access_log rotation, everyday at midnight.

Uses the dumb terminal option in gnuplot to plot a graph of frequencies. In this case, we are looking at a frequency analysis of words in all of the .c files.

require the pdftk package

This is a cool trick to view the contents of the file on /dev/pts/0 (or whatever terminal you're using), and also send the contents of that file to another program by way of an unnamed pipe. All the while, you've not bothered saving any extra data to disk, like you might be tempted to do with sed or grep to filter output.

bash neto..

Quick write some notes to a file with cat. Ctrl+C when you have finish.
