Check These Out
You might want to secure your AWS operations requiring to use a MFA token. But then to use API or tools, you need to pass credentials generated with a MFA token.
This commands asks you for the MFA code and retrieves these credentials using AWS Cli. To print the exports, you can use:
`awk '{ print "export AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=\"" $1 "\"\n" "export AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=\"" $2 "\"\n" "export AWS_SESSION_TOKEN=\"" $3 "\"" }'`
You must adapt the command line to include:
* $MFA_IDis ARN of the virtual MFA or serial number of the physical one
* TTL for the credentials
There was another line that was dependent on having un-named screen sessions. This just wouldn't do. This one works no matter what the name is. A possible improvement would be removing the perl dependence, but that doesn't effect me.
It's the same like 'cp -p' if available. It's faster over networks than scp. If you have to copy gigs of data you could also use netcat and the tar -z option in conjunction -- on the receiving end do:
# nc -l 7000 | tar -xzvpf -
...and on the sending end do:
# tar -czf - * | nc otherhost 7000

swap out "80" for your port of interest. Can use port number or named ports e.g. "http"
I often have to google this so I put it here for quick reference.
Examples:
The following will take frames starting at 15.2 seconds for a total of 45.9 seconds:
$ mencoder -ss 15.2 -endpos 30.7 -oac copy -ovc copy mymovie.avi -o myeditedmovie.avi
Keep in mind -endpos is the total time, i.e. the output video in this is 3 minutes 3 seconds in length:
$ mencoder -ss 1 minute -endpos 2 minutes 3 seconds -oac copy -ovc copy mymovie.avi -o myeditedmovie.avi
Converts any number of seconds into days, hours, minutes and seconds.
sec2dhms() {
declare -i SS="$1"
D=$(( SS / 86400 ))
H=$(( SS % 86400 / 3600 ))
M=$(( SS % 3600 / 60 ))
S=$(( SS % 60 ))
[ "$D" -gt 0 ] && echo -n "${D}:"
[ "$H" -gt 0 ] && printf "%02g:" "$H"
printf "%02g:%02g\n" "$M" "$S"

1) The last sed expression ensures the unicast/multicast bit is set to zero
2) The greedy space replacements are for portability across UNIX seds
