Re: [Ilugc] to calculate time taken by process
Hi, On Mon, Feb 21, 2011 at 11:17 AM, narendra babu cnarendra_b...@yahoo.comwrote: is there anyway other time command to get the time taken by each process to complete . Each of your insert statements sqlplus -s user1/pwdsafe runs as separate processes by themselves. So when you use the 'time' command, it calculates the time taken for that process to complete. Isn't it so? i would like to know how can i get the total cpu time taken to execute all the statements . Use the time command for your entire shell script then! (Assuming your shell script executes only these SQL commands). If not, then a naive workaround would be to put these insert commands inside a separate script and run the time command for that script from your original script. I don't know if time command provides a mechanism to find the time of a set of commands, check it out :-) -- Thanks and Regards, Hrishikesh Murali ___ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc

Hi, On Fri, Oct 29, 2010 at 9:16 AM, Yoganandam Goteti g...@anaggha.com wrote: Has any one tried to configure as VPN the guest and host under VBox to share files/network function between them? If you want to share files, then install guest additions and enable file sharing in vbox. If you want to perform networking functions between the host and guest, you can use the Internal Networking or Host Only Networking options. These allow multiple VMs on the same host to communicate with each other too. If you have a single VM, then you could as well use the NAT option, where by default 10.0.2.15 is assigned as IP of guest via DHCP and 10.0.2.2 is the internal virtual interface's IP of host. If an encrypted connection is what you want, then you can create a VPN server and client design (using OpenVPN maybe) in one of the options mentioned above. It's the same process as creating a VPN server and client design between two machines in a normal scenario right, or am I missing something here? -- Thanks and Regards, Hrishikesh Murali ___ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc

[Ilugc] Help With OpenVPN
Hi, I am in need of help with OpenVPN here. This is the situation: I have the VPN server running successfully on 192.168.1.1 and the clients are connected to it (192.168.1.2 and 192.168.1.3). Computer 1 - eth0 - 192.168.1.1/24 (This is the VPN server) tap0 - 10.222.222.1 Computer 2 - eth0 - 192.168.1.2/24 eth1 - 10.1.2.1/24 (internal network is 10.1.2.0/24, and this is the gateway) tap0 - 10.222.222.2 Computer 3 - eth0 - 192.168.1.3/24 eth1 - 10.1.3.1/24 (internal network is 10.1.3.0/24, and this is the gateway) tap0 - 10.222.222.3 I have enabled forwarding from tap0 to eth1 and vice-versa using iptables on the two gateways and added this command in the VPN server configuration file: push route 10.1.0.0 255.255.0.0 This adds a routing entry in each client when they are connected: route add -net 10.1.0.0 netmask 255.255.0.0 gw 10.222.222.1 On the VPN server, i have added the following routes: 1) route add -net 10.1.2.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 gw 10.1.2.1 2) route add -net 10.1.3.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 gw 10.1.3.1 By doing so, i am successfully able to ping from 10.1.2.x to 10.1.3.x. My problem is that all the packets go to the VPN server and then it is forwarded to the gateways. I feel this will result in too much load on the VPN server as it keeps running and in burst traffic situations (and might crash). Am i wrong in this assumption? Is there a better way to do the routing, that is can I push the routing entries 1) and 2) automatically from the VPN server onto the clients whenever they connect so that traffic does not have to come through the VPN server, it can go directly to the gateway? If so, what is the command I have to specify in the VPN configuration file? Also, I need to log traffic and detect burst traffic. I know this is possible using iptables, and have tried it out. But, is there a way where I can specify in the VPN server configuration file to automatically push commands onto the client to prevent burst traffic (DOS attacks typically)? I must prevent computers from one subnet from DOSing the VPN server, or the other subnets, or any computer in the VPN. How do I do this? What is the difference between dev tun and dev tap in the VPN configuration files? I know it specifies the tunneling device, but why two separate devices? In what situations do I use each device? I have also noticed this, in my VPN server configuration file, I have the line: server 10.222.222.0 255.255.255.0 If I specify dev tun in both server and clients, the server starts giving out ip's to clients from 10.222.222.5, but if I specify dev tap in both server and clients, the server starts giving out ip's to clients from 10.222.222.2. Why is it so? What if I enable forwarding using iptables from eth0 to eth1 in the gateways? Will routing from 10.1.2.x to 10.1.3.x work even then? If not, why? I know there are too many questions to be answered :), but it would be really helpful if I could get some answers. -- Cheers, Hrishikesh Murali ___ To unsubscribe, email ilugc-requ...@ae.iitm.ac.in with unsubscribe password address in the subject or body of the message. http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc
Re: [Ilugc] Help With OpenVPN
Hi, Thanks for the replies everyone. If all the computers are on a common ethernet segment why are you running a VPN between these machines in addition to the ethernet? (If you want to encrypt data by default you are better of switching all machines to IPSec.) I want to test out the VPN server on the LAN first before deploying it on the internet. -- Cheers, Hrishikesh Murali ___ To unsubscribe, email ilugc-requ...@ae.iitm.ac.in with unsubscribe password address in the subject or body of the message. http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc
Re: [Ilugc] Aceessing files from windows server from linux?????
To access files via linux, you have to use the samba client. Type this in the Nautilus addressbar or the Connect To Server in ubuntu: smb://ip/share This will prompt you for authentication if needed. Please do tell me if I am wrong or there are other methods.

Re: [Ilugc] Firefox not browsing any pages
In my office, I installed ubuntu 9.04, which is connected thro LAN connection. But the server connection is windows os. I cannot browse any pages thro firefox. please advice me the configuration settings in my system. regards arulmozhi r Hi, First, please explain the problem in detail. Without proper information, the community will not be able to help you. Anyways, coming to your problem. There are two possibilities: 1) Firefox is browsing in offline mode. You need to go to File-Work Offline. Please uncheck this option. 2) Firefox is not configured to send data via the office proxy. You need to go to Edit-Preferences-Advanced-Network-Settings. In this window, you need to set the HTTP proxy and port, and the proxy server and port for other protocols also (if needed). Other than these, please check if you are properly connected to the internal network and also properly connected to the internet. Please approach you senior officials if you do not know the details. -- Cheers, Hrishikesh Murali ___ To unsubscribe, email ilugc-requ...@ae.iitm.ac.in with unsubscribe password address in the subject or body of the message. http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc
Re: [Ilugc] Restrict users commands
Hi, I don't know a direct method for doing this, but my suggestion is : 1) Take the source code for these commands 2) Modify it such that you get the uid, check if its the restricted user. If so, exit printing PERMISSION DENIED, else continue normal execution. 3) Compile the source code, get the executable and replace it with the original executable in one of the directories in your $PATH variable. If there is a direct command to do this, please do enlighten me. I am eager to know.

Re: [Ilugc] Help needed
hi, i think kmobiletools should do it ... because i could do it in kmobiletools (if configured properly) ... are you sure you configured kmobiletools properly? could you be a little more verbose about what you exactly did? for your info, kmobiletools uses kaddressbook. 2009/9/4 பத்மநாதன் indianath...@gmail.com Dear LUGs, recently TNEB supplied CUG simcards to all Engineers. I have an mobile phone list which contain 200 numbers. I tried to make the entry in my simcard using wammu through Motorola SLVR L9 ( OS is ubuntu 8.10). After single number entry, It shows squire boxes in name numbers in mobile. and also wammu shows Japanese ( or china) language or symbols in name column when retrieval. I tired it the same in kmobiletools ( Mandriva 2009), but I couldn't make an entry phone. I need the solution to solve it. Any other way to feed numbers to my mobile?
