It might be causing the bandwidth usage. Though it shouldn't be really doing it if there are no remote connections.

[Ilugc] access password protected sites using perl
Hi,
How can we access a password protected site using perl. Not the ones' that
use a realm (wherein there is a popup window for username and password) type
of authentication. By password protected I mean sites like gmail, yahoo etc,
wherein the password needs to be supplied to the ID of field. I have tried
using the LWP module POST method, however, GMAIL does not accept post
method.
Regards,
Ashish
PS: Actually now I am unable to even access pages that use a realm for
authentication, I was going through a very informative page in CPAN
documentation, however am unable to find it. Further, I am not even able to
rewrite the code to access those type of pages.
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use LWP::UserAgent;
use HTTP::Request::Common qw(POST);
use HTTP::Request::Common qw(GET);
use HTTP::Cookies;
use LWP::Simple;
use Net::SSLeay;
my $ua = LWP::UserAgent-new;
$ua-agent('Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 7.0; Windows NT 6.0; SLCC1; .NET
CLR 2.0.50727; .NET CLR 3.0.04506; InfoPath.2; MS-RTC LM 8)');
$ua-no_proxy('172.25.203.131','server.av.net');
$ua-proxy(http = 'http://myproxy.net');
$ua-cookie_jar( HTTP::Cookies-new( file = 'mycookies.txt', autosave = 1
) );
# $ua-credentials('172.25.203.131/isos/', 'This_is_a_realm',
'ashish', 'password') # What does this (credentials) do. Isn't
mentioning this supposed to make the scenario 2 below work?
1. my $req = GET 'http://172.25.203.131/isos/'; # This
works
2. my $req = GET 'http://172.25.203.131/isos/'; # This
doesn't works if isos is password protected.
3. my $req = POST 'http://172.25.203.131/isos/' [username = 'ashish',
password = 'password'] ; # This doesn't works The
informative page I have mentioned above had an explanation as to how to
make the above POST request to work with some reasons. I can't find that
now.
my $res = $ua-request($req, 'test.html');
exit 0;
Please help!!!

Fwd Mail Date: Thu, 21 Jan 2010 14:32:55 +1300 From: Gavin Treadgold This is a brief request from the Sahana Software Foundation to fellow GSOC mentors and their projects. We have already approached some communities with requests for assistance, and I thought I'd ask here. We are looking for additional developers to help us with Sahana and continue to build an information portal that is seeing increased interest and usage to assist organisations responding to events in Haiti. Sahana Haiti Reponse Overview page + areas we're working on http://wiki.sahana.lk/doku.php/haiti:start Skills we are primarily looking for: (you don't need them all, any will do) * Python - the main development for SahanaPy is Python (we're not using PHP for this instance) * web2py - we use the web2py enterprise framework for SahanaPy (I'm told it is fairly easy to learn if you're used to Django) * OpenLayers * jQuery Best place is to jump onto #sahana on freenode if you're interested in giving us a hand or finding out more. As much or as little as you want. Some of our core devs have been working really long hours the past 5-6 days, and any additional resource would assist us greatly, particularly as we're really starting to get some interest, traction and coverage. And more feature requests. If you read this far, thanks for taking the brief time required to read this - hope some of you are able to join us on #sahana and help out in whatever way possible ;) Gavin Treadgold gt at kestrel.co.nz 2008 GSOC Admin, 2009 GSOC Mentor Board Member, Sahana Software Foundation ___ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc

[Ilugc] LJ Tech Tip
LJ Tech Tip: Dereference Variable Names Inside Bash Functions
If we pass variable names as parameters to functions, they will be
treated as string literals and cannot be dereferenced (ie the value is
not available). But this is not so, variable names can be passed as
parameters to functions and they can be dereferenced to obtain the
value of the variable with the given name.
The following script demonstrates this:
DerefernceVariablePassedToFunction() {
if [ -n $1 ] ; then
echo value of [${1}] is: [${!1}]
else
echo Null parameter passed to this function
fi
}
Variable=LinuxJournal
DerefernceVariablePassedToFunction Variable
The secret here is the ! used in the variable expansion ${!1}.
If the first character of parameter is an exclamation point, a level
of variable indirection is introduced. Bash uses the value of the
variable formed from the rest of parameter as the name of the
variable; this variable is then expanded and that value is used in the
rest of the substitution, rather than the value of parameter itself.
This is known as indirect expansion
