API and a script

When you use Shift + PgUp/PgDn on a linux console you can scroll the screen buffer.

Where does this behavior come from? Is it the shell, a utility on the server, is it the console client, is it the ssh client?

It's not working for me using ssh (on windows) and I realized I have no clue where to start looking...

Probably specific to the config of your terminal program, unless you’re truly talking about the console itself.

I had to alter some key bindings in Gnome Terminal to get the desired behavior from the weechat key bindings.

You were right. I was trying out Windows Terminal and running ssh inside. And shift+pgup/dn didn't work as expected.

I looked at the Windows Terminal keybindings and the default was not what I wanted.

So I added this under "actions" in the settings.json file:

// Scrollback { "command": "scrollDown", "keys": "shift+down" }, { "command": "scrollDownPage", "keys": "shift+pgdn" }, { "command": "scrollUp", "keys": "shift+up" }, { "command": "scrollUpPage", "keys": "shift+pgup" },

The added bonus is that shift+pgup/dn now also works with cmd.exe and PowerShell.

That seems to have fixed the issue

Well I managed to get the file created, I had to use visudo to create a custom file with my edits.

I'm testing it now to see if everything works.

Really? It doesn't let you just sudo a file in the dump directory? I wonder how they are enforcing that?

Yeah, not sure why it was having a hissy fit over it, but I've got a good working custom sudoer.d/god file now that can be used for what I have, and I can simply cp that into the appropriate folder and reset the perms on it (if required) to get everything working.

Thanks for the help guys!

This is what I do when I use nohup.
I usually create a file with the current pid just in case I need to stop it.

nohup wget 'https://example.com/fedora.iso' > wget_fedora.log 2>&1 & echo $! > wget_fedora_pid.txt kill -9 `cat wget_fedora_pid.txt` rm wget_fedora_pid.txt

Nice, but why use this when we have the real PowerShell for Linux?

Performance probably. And ease of use. And while PS is on Linux, does it process any Linux data in this way?

@scottalanmiller said in Tracking Down Ubuntu BASH Session Closing:

If I use zsh, I'm good. If I enter BASH from zsh, I get kicked out after several seconds. Definitely is something to do with BASH.

Stupid tryout: use bash and then enter zsh before being kicked out. Still out?
To understand if it is the firing of bash itself or the stay in bash...

No, the underlying bash remains until the ZSH closes. Same as if you were running top from it, for example.

So basically bash is able to run long running jobs with your user...
It's the interactivity with the shell to be broken... Meh.

Sorry the thread is long, did you mention any test from zsh with:

Bash <-- ok this kills the session
Bash -i any difference???
Bash -l ???
bash --norc
bash --noprofile

From bashman page

Just used this again today, as another script I have had this attribute.

Not sure when the attribute was written to the script though. But it's working now.

This is the full error.

/bin/sh: bad interpreter: Operation not permitted

@marcinozga said in Find the character break - sh script:

@DustinB3403 you need to source .bash_profile after changing it, so bash picks up modified file. Either

source ~/.bash_profile

or

. ~/.bash_profile

Thanks for that, I was actually sorting out that bit as you posted.

Short of setting up a few printers via the script I'm back in working order.

@scottalanmiller That did the trick. Didn't even cross my mind. Thanks!

@hobbit666 no this is just for the mysql database.

@Kelly said in Using DSH, the Distributed Shell, on Linux:

Hmm, this might be an interesting alternative to cssh since it doesn't mirror keyboard input, but merely runs the same command. I'll have to see if we can adapt this for running our auditing scripts.

Yeah, a little bit more robust there 🙂

I am also checking https://www.graylog.org/ as this seems to be pretty famous and looks like a good alternative to ELK if anyone else looking at it.

Graylog is built on the same foundation as ELK. They are both log ingesting and interfaces applied on top of Elasticsearch.

Have you tried Graylog?

No, on my long list of things to build.
