Or do you mean the full path to the bash binary?

$ which bash
/bin/bash

Hi!

That sounds interesting, but I think we're a little unclear about the details. You mention...

"create a menu which will add users doing this in Bash"

...and...

"then adding a list of...

Hmm... Is that the whole script? I'm not seeing the "users" function called anywhere, or even a terminating "}" for the function :)

-G

That's really odd... It works OK on my system:


$ sed -f DBACheck.sql.sed DBACheck.sql
select granted_role from sys.dba_role_privs where grantee='SYSTEM';



What version of sed are you...

Here's a link that might get you started:

Experiment with care!

Sure! I don't have any examples in front of me, but the Oracle command line client is sqlplus. There are others, but I think sqlplus is the one that ships with Oracle. You should be able to script...

Check out "read"! It will take the user input and do whatever you want with it.


read -p "what is your name? " name
echo "Nice to meet you $name"


Hope that helps!

Looks like you need to enclose your $line|sed in both cases! Try this:


for line in $(ls *.new); do
file1="${line}"
file2="$(echo ${line} | sed 's/\(.*\)..../\1/')"
diff ${file1}...

Do you use the temporary file for anything in the meantime? I'm biased against temporary files when they can be avoided, personally... Why not stuff it all into a variable and then stuff it into a...

Okay, I needed something to get my mind off work for a few minutes, so here's a quick script I wrote using both of the suggestions above from chris5126 and omrsafetyo. I didn't translate the date, I...

Wow, that's a lot of pipes! I would do it something like this:


awk '{TotCPU += $1}{TotMem += $2}END{print "Total CPU= " TotCPU "\nTotal Mem= "TotMem}' test.list


Kinda ugly all in one...

Hi!

The problem is that you're not providing a database name! Try this:


mysql -uusername -ppassword database_name ...



Hope that helps!

I keep a copy of this document posted at every workstation in my office ;)

It's just a text file right? What flavor of Unix are you using? You'll probably want to use "vi" or "emacs". If you're not familiar with either of those, you'll probably want to google for some...

Heya Robert72! Did you find what you were looking for, or did you need more specific examples?

I think you're looking for read -p

I have some examples, but running to a meeting... If you still need help, I'll post it later!

Doesn't tripwire write a to a report file by default? Maybe you could get the results you're looking for by running tripwire and then parsing the report?

Otherwise, I think you're just missing...

This may be late, but I wanted to get the "column" command into the fight!


$ column -t -s " " test.txt
aba bba baba
abba baba baaa

Hope this helps!

Hi Ajay!

I'm not that familiar with Java, so are the System.out messages what gets printed on the command line?

If' so, you'll want to run your java app like this:

./java-app >> log.txt

...

Okay, I think I'm confused now. It sounds like you just need to run that file as a shell script.

# sh ./file


Unless there's a reason to run it line-by-line... If you can't run it in place...

Hi Jaoqua!

How have you tried so far? Depending on how the file is formatted (are there spaces in some of the commands you want to run?) it should be as simple as:


for i in $(cat...

Hi Manik, you might want to start a new thread, since this was was solved back in March :)

If this isn't what you're looking for, please start a new thread with more details. From what you've...

This is a really interesting project. I'd like to take a deeper look into it when I have some time :)

Although I love bash a lot, Perl has a lot of built in functions to handle the conversions...

OR you could break it up into functions!

Make each part of the script into a function, and you can go back to whatever function you want at any time.

For example, you can turn that initial...

Hi Nick,

We'll need a little more info to help you I think. You say you know about mysqldump, so I assume you just need to know how to script a mysql dump for each database?

If that's the...

Hi Rast,

To do this with find, try the -cmin switch:


-cmin n
File’s status was last changed n minutes ago.


EDIT: Or you might be looking for this one:

If all that's in that directory is the sym links to the files that you want to tail, try something like this:


for i in $(ls /path/to/directory); do tail -n 21 $i; done


Let us know how it...

I poked at your original script and made some syntax changes to your "if" statement. I think it does what you want now. I think you have to use brackets when doing a comparison like this:


$...

Try this!


ps -C bash -o pid=,size | awk '{SUM += $2} END {print SUM}'


The problem is that your awk statement doesn't have a "print" command. You have to tell it what to print.

I also...

Nice! Looks like fun ;)

There are thousands of ways to do this one :) Try this!


grep -Eo '[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}' /var/lib/output


Thanks!

Here's a test I wrote just to see if my math was right :)


#!/bin/bash

if [ -z "$1" ]
then
echo "Usage: $0 <hex#>"
exit
fi

That's an interesting one... is the pattern for each one the same as your example?

If so, you could do something like:


TEST=(A028) ; echo -n ${TEST:2:4}${TEST:0:2}


Maybe? I dunno...

Hi!

I think Rad' meant to put quotes around the variable, like "$1". I don't think that's going to help though. This problem used to frustrate me so much!

Okay, I'm not sure how this will...
