first of all i'm sorry for my english.
I'm trying to monitor the hard drives of a lot of Windows machines, and i've seen that can be done with smartd. I've read the man page and i've seen that is possible to sent a mail when an error occurs. I've done some test, searching info in google... but i can't make it work, the smartd daemon don't run the mail program.
I've tested with this in smartd.conf:
DEVICESCAN
/dev/hda -m UserName#SomeHost.com -M test -M exec c:\sendmail.cmd
and sendmail.cmd is a test script with a simple line:
"C:\sendEmail.exe" -f UserName#SomeHost.com -m "Hi There" -l c:\log.log -t UserName#SomeHost.com -s SomeHost.com -xu UserName#SomeHost.com -xp PassWord
The cmd script works perfect, but i don't know why smartd dont run that script...
Even I've tried with a hybrid:
/dev/hda -m UserName#SomeHost.com -M test -M exec "C:\sendEmail.exe" -f UserName#SomeHost.com -m "Hi There" -l c:\log.log -t UserName#SomeHost.com -s SomeHost.com -xu UserName#SomeHost.com -xp PassWord
but don't works too.
The Windows log shows how smartd daemon start and run "DEVICESCAN" command, but nothing about the other line.
I've tested with "smartctl -a /dev/hda" and shows the drive info.
What i'm doing wrong?
Thanks!!
Fixed... the problem is "DEVICESCAN". If you run that command all others are ignored. Even i've found an installer to install in a lot of PC's silently and configured.

I am trying to write a deployment script which after copying the new release to the server should perform a few sudo commands on the remote machine.
#!/bin/bash
app=$1
echo "Deploying application $app"
echo "Copy file to server"
scp -pr $app-0.1-SNAPSHOT-jar-with-dependencies.jar nuc:/tmp/
echo "Execute deployment script"
ssh -tt stefan#nuc ARG1=$app 'bash -s' <<'ENDSSH'
# commands to run on remote host
echo Hello world
echo $ARG1
sudo ifconfig
exit
ENDSSH
The file gets copied correctly and the passed argument printed as well. But the prompt for the password shows for two seconds then it says "Sorry, try again" and the second prompt shows the text I enter in plain text (meaning not masked) but also does not work if I enter the password correctly.
stefan#X220:~$ ./deploy.sh photos
Deploying application photos
Copy file to server
photos-0.1-SNAPSHOT-jar-with-dependencies.jar 100% 14MB 75.0MB/s 00:00
Execute deployment script
# commands to run on remote host
echo Hello world
echo $ARG1
sudo ifconfig
exit
stefan#nuc:~$ # commands to run on remote host
stefan#nuc:~$ echo Hello world
Hello world
stefan#nuc:~$ echo $ARG1
photos
stefan#nuc:~$ sudo ifconfig
[sudo] password for stefan:
Sorry, try again.
[sudo] password for stefan: ksdlgfdkgdfg
I tried leaving out the -t flags for ssh as well as using -S for sudo which did not help. Any help is highly appreciated.
What I would do :
ssh stefan#nuc bash -s foobar <<'EOF'
echo "arg1 is $1"
echo "$HOSTNAME"
ifconfig
exit
EOF
Tested, work well.
Notes :
for the trick to work, use ssh key pair instead of using a password, it's even more secure
take care of the place of your bash -s argument. Check how I pass it
no need -tt at all
no need sudo to execute ifconfig and better use ip a
I came up with another solution: Create another file with the script to execute on the remote server. Then copy it using scp and in the calling script do a
ssh -t remoteserver sudo /tmp/deploy_remote.sh parameter1
This works as expected. Of course the separate file is not the most elegant solution, but -t and -tt did not work when inlining the script to execute on the remote machine.
I am trying to run a nested ssh -t -t but it won't provide me the environment variables when working with cat and echo.
#!/bin/bash
pass="password\n"
bla="cat <(echo -e '$pass') - | sudo -S su -"
ssh -t -t -t -t jumpserver "ssh -t -t -t -t server \"$bla\" "
I get an output without any variables taken into consideration. (e.g. PS1 does not get shown but commands work fine) The problem is related to cat <(echo -e '$pass') - but this was the way to keep echo alive after providing the password for sudo.
How can i achieve this and get environment variables to get a proper output?
Thanks.
The -tt is enough. Using more -t does not add any more effect and just makes an impression that you have no idea what are you doing.
What is the point of cat <(echo -e) construction? Writing just echo would result in the same, isn't it?
Why to use sudo su? sudo already does all you need, isn't it?
So how can it look in some fashionable manner?
pass="password\n"
bla="echo '$pass' | sudo -Si"
ssh -tt jumpserver "ssh -tt server \"$bla\""
And does it work? Try to debug the commands with -vvv switches to the ssh. It will show you what is actually executed and passed to each other shell.
I have a kiosk that shuts down every day using rtcwake, and this uses root user. I've used && to execute the boot script after rtcwake completes, however it then starts the browser as root causing problems.
This is the command I use:
echo debian | sudo -S rtcwake -m mem -u -t $(date +%s -d '3 days 7:45') && sudo -u debian -i bash $HOME/kiosk/bin/startup.sh &.
The sudo command does work to some extent. It calls the debian user, and executes the correct script, however, it still screws up my chromium preferences.
Here is the startup script:
echo debian | sudo -S hwclock -w
export HOME=/home/debian
#log boot time
echo "Booting at" $(date) >> $HOME/kiosk/bin/logs/boot.log
#echo debian | sudo -S service connman restart
echo debian | sudo -S at 15:30 -f $HOME/kiosk/bin/shutdown.sh
crontab -u debian crontab.txt
bash $HOME/git.sh
#sudo -i -u debian
#start kiosk
export DISPLAY=:0
chromium-browser --kiosk --disable-gpu
http://localhost/kiosk/Client/main.html &
#update ip
bash /home/debian/git.sh &
I'm wondering what could be causing chrome to be executed as root. I have no idea what is going wrong.
If you execute a command with sudo it will not change environment variables like $HOME. Since per user settings are stored in $HOME, this affects the executed program if it needs such configuration files. Check this for example:
sudo -u debian bash -c 'echo $HOME'
It will print the home folder of the calling user, not the home folder of the user specified trough -u. The sudo command supports the -H command line option to handle this, however if it works depends on the security police in use.
As a solution you can use the su command instead of sudo in this case:
... && su debian -c chromium
Since su itself is executed by root you won't be asked for the password.
You must enter a password to log into a new user shell.
The command needs to be modified as follows:
echo debian | sudo -S rtcwake -m mem -u -t $(date +%s -d '3 days 7:45') && echo debian | sudo -S -u debian -i bash $HOME/kiosk/bin/startup.sh &
This avoids needing a password to log in as normal Debian user, and executes the script.
I used to consume messages from amqp-consume with this command below at debian 7, but I installed debian 8 I think the amqp-tools is different and it does not recognize my command.
I noticed some changes. My web interface change the port from 55672 to 15672.
amqp-consume -d -q queue.udrive.admin.uiscsi -s 10.0.1.251 -p 5672 -e "directExchangeUdrive" --vhost "/" -r "" --username=guest --password=guest /bin/bash remoteManageUiSCSI.sh
error: both --server and --url options specify server host
I think the command expects it:
amqp-consume
consuming command not specified
Usage: amqp-consume [-dxA?] [-u|--url=amqp://...] [-s|--server=hostname] [--port=port] [--vhost=vhost] [--username=username] [--password=password] [--ssl] [--cacert=cacert.pem] [--key=key.pem] [--cert=cert.pem] [-q|--queue=queue] [-e|--exchange=exchange] [-r|--routing-key=routing key] [-d|--declare] [-x|--exclusive] [-A|--no-ack] [-c|--count=limit] [-p|--prefetch-count=limit] [-?|--help] [--usage] [OPTIONS]... <command> <args>
I tried all kinds of things on amqp:// and it dodn't work.
I got the answer at other site https://qpid.apache.org/releases/qpid-0.30/programming/book/QpidJNDI.html but I still wonder to know why this answer was not at the "man amqp-consume" or rabbitmq web site....
The command works for me is:
amqp-consume -d -u amqp://test:test#ustorageprod/%2f -q queue.udrive.admin.uiscsi -e "directExchangeUdrive" -r "" /bin/bash remoteManageUiSCSI.sh
amqp-publish -u amqp://test:test#ustorageprod/%2f -r "queue.udrive.ustorage" -e "directExchangeUdrive" -b "$msg"
I'm using reverse ssh for connecting to remote client , Operator run reverse one time and leave client system
how can i write bash script , when reverse ssh disconnected from server retry to connect to server (ssh)
Use autossh. Autossh "automatically restart[s] SSH sessions and tunnels"
sudo apt-get install autossh
I use autossh to to keep open reverse tunnel that I depend on. It works very well, even with long periods of lost connection.
Here is the script I use to create the tunnel:
#!/bin/bash
AUTOSSH_GATETIME=0
export AUTOSSH_GATETIME
autossh -f -N -R 8022:localhost:22 username#host -o "ServerAliveInterval 45" -o "ServerAliveCountMax 2"
I execute this script at boot with this cronjob:
#reboot /home/scripts/./persistent-tunnel.sh
If you simply want to retry a command until it succeeds, you can use this pattern:
while ! ssh [...]
do
echo "Command failed, retrying..." >&2
done
I have a slightly different method.
My method always tries to reconnect you if you have a dirty disconnection: '~.' or 'Connection closed by remote host.'
But if you disconnect with 'CRTL+D' or with 'exit' it just disconnects and show you some info of the connections.

then

retries=0
repeat=true
today=$(date)
while "$repeat"
do
((retries+=1)) &&
echo "Try number $retries..." &&

ssh "$#" &&
repeat=false
sleep 5
done
echo """

You might want to take a look into ssh options ServerAliveInterval, ServerAliveCountMax and TCPKeepAlive because sometimes your line dies without making this obvious, let me demonstrate:
#!/bin/sh
while true; do
ssh -T user#host \
-o IdentityFile=~/.ssh/tunnel \
-o UserKnownHostsFile=~/.ssh/known_hosts.tunnel \
pkill -f "^sshd:\ user\ \ \ \ $" # needs to be edited for nearly every case
sleep 2
ssh -T -N user#host \
-o IdentityFile=~/.ssh/tunnel \
-o UserKnownHostsFile=~/.ssh/known_hosts.tunnel \
-o Batchmode=yes \
-o ExitOnForwardFailure=yes \
-o ServerAliveCountMax=1 \
-o ServerAliveInterval=60 \
-o LocalForward=127.0.0.1:2501=127.0.0.1:25 \
-o RemoteForward=127.0.0.1:2501=127.0.0.1:25
sleep 60
done
You can use netstat -ntp | grep ":22" or ss -ntp | grep ":22" to see established connections to ssh port, then use grep to filter the ip address you're looking for. If you don't find a connection then reconnect the tunnel.
Use autossh if it works on your version of Linux. It did not on mine as it was an outdated Linux distribution for a custom NAS box.
The alternative is a simple bash script in crontab like this:
maintain_reverse_ssh_tunnel.sh
if ! netstat -planet |grep myserver_ip_or_name |grep ESTABLISHED > /dev/null; then
echo "REVERSE SSH DOWN - Restarting the tunnels"
ssh -fN -R 32999:localhost:22 -R 28080:localhost:80 myusername#myserver_ip_or_name
fi
Replace myusername and myserver_ip_or_name with those of your user and server.
Then add an entry to crontab by typing crontab -e and adding the following line:
1 * * * * /path_to_my_script/maintain_reverse_ssh_tunnel.sh
Make sure to have the execute permissions on the script:
chmod 755 maintain_reverse_ssh_tunnel.sh
