Manually? This can be achieved with FreeBSD compt turned on this way: halt the obsd guest then set his type to freebsd and back up install the vmware tools: mount /dev/cd0c /mnt tar -xzf /mnt/vmware-freebsd-tools.tar.gz -C /tmp mkdir -p /emul/freebsd/sbin install -m 555 -o root -g wheel /tmp/vmware-tools-distrib/lib/sbin32/vmware-guestd /emul/freebsd/sbin cp -r /tmp/vmware-tools-distrib/etc /etc/vmware-tools then tune your sysctl.conf kern.emul.freebsd=1 Add this one to your rc.local: if [ -x /emul/freebsd/sbin/vmware-guestd ]; then echo -n ' vmware-tools' /emul/freebsd/sbin/vmware-guestd --background /var/run/vmware-guestd.pid --halt-command /sbin/shutdown -p -h now fi Now you can use vmware scripts to automate power management of your vm. Hope this helps. Doesn't work for me. Vmware-guestd doesn't want to run and the message Abort trap is printed... Btw, this is on OpenBSD 4.4 i386 and VMware Server 2.0 I use VMWare Workstation 6.5.1 which, as far as I know, uses the same hw-compat as Server 2.0 and it sometimes bring my whole machine down when running OpenBSD 4.4. The crashes are quite random. Difficult to determine the problem for me though as I changed hardware, and thus OS, and changed from Workstation 6.0 to 6.5 and OpenBSD-version to 4.4 at the same time. =) Previous versions has worked wonders. I'm kinda curious on if it would be possible to figure out what the changes are and write a DoS-sploit for VMware/host-OS from it. =) Host OS would be a Linux 64-bit on Core2Duo if anyone wondered. -- Using Opera's revolutionary e-mail client: http://www.opera.com/mail/

- I understand the backtick quoted execution.

does what it does.
The ${var##string} part is ksh or bash specific, see Parameter Expansion
in the bash man page if you're using bash.
I see your #! line says /bin/sh but to my knowledge a real sh, not
emulated by bash or ksh doesn't support ${##} and friends, if I'm wrong
feel free to correct me. =)
What it does is cut away the string telnet:// from the beginning of the
first positional parameter.
(You've changed that to * in your last example, don't know what will be
substituted for $* there if you have more than one positional argument
for your script, you might what to test that or change back to ${1} ).
- I think that the $* variable, which I think is somehow what the
${*##telnet://} bit is about, is the entire string of parameters
passed to the script. ($1 as in the previous examples would be the
first parameter only.)
Yes. $@ is also all the positional parameters, they expand differently
when expanded inside . A full explaination can be found under Special
Parameters in the bash man page.
I'm not really happy with the way this is put together. If awk(1) can
remove telnet:// from $* (if present), then surely it should be able
to turn a colon (if present) into a space, right?
If I'd use a pipe, I'd pipe it to tr, not sed.
But I wouldn't, I'd let bash do it:
#!/bin/bash
IFS=:
set -- $1
host=${2##//}
port=$3
xterm -e telnet $host $port
This way, you won't need to use anything else than bash itself. =)
What it does is that it splits $1 using : as a delimiter and stores
the split parts into the positional arguments like this:
$1 = telnet
$2 = //example.com
$3 = 1991
Then the host=${2##//} cuts away the // from $2 and stores in $host.
Yes, this is an opportunity for me to really start looking into
awk(1), but thus far I seem to be making little headway...
Awk is nice, but this isn't awk. ;)
