I'm testing machines for SSH vulnerabilities using SSHredder and wanted
to run all the tests in parallel.
The problem is BASH is stopping me from backgrounding the processes.
I tried to use:
for i in pdu/* ;
do cat $i | netcat host 22 > /tmp/$i.out & ;
done
but I get this error because of the "&":
$ for i in pdu/* ;
> do cat $i | netcat host 22 > /tmp/$i.out & ;
-bash: syntax error near unexpected token `;'
When I try and escape the ampersand I get:
for i in pdu/* ; do cat $i | netcat host 22 > /tmp/$i.out \& ; done
-bash: /tmp/pdu/0000001.pdu.out: No such file or directory
Could anyone help with this? Is there another way to do it?
BTW the first version works fine in ZSH.
TIA
