[CentOS] script help - '3rd last field'
Hi I need some logic to work out a value for me - this value is _always_ the 3rd last field in a string seperated by '.' but the string could be 5 or 6 fields long, e.g foo.bar.VALUE.baz.lala foor.bar.gigi.VALUE.baz.lala I need to find VALUE - if this were python or something i could do it but this has to be in shell - Any clues? thanks ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

Re: [CentOS] script help - '3rd last field'
Is there anyway you can tell which field it will be in (i.e. to use as
a search clause, so "search for the field with X properties"?)
Ultimately to get the data in the X'th field you are going to need
either awk or sed (they can both easily do this, awk probably easier
than sed)
You need to work out how you will know which field it will be in i.e.
the first, second, third? My shell scripting is rubbish but I would
guess it would go something like;
myString = "first.second.VALUE.fourth.fith"
awk -F\. {'print 3'} myString
This would print the third field seperated by a '.' (full stop/period)
of myString
That's a rubbishy wild stab in the dark as im rubbish at shell scripting.
I would actually bet money I have made things more complex hahahah!
Sorry, i tried :'(

i can do it in cheetah templating with
set myloc = $getVar("hostname","")split('.')[-3]
the -3 says the last 3rd field in the string - i need the same so maybe
awk can do this

I presume you are talking about a Atom 230 not a Atom 330, as on the an
original Intel board with an Atom 330, the D945GCLF2 you can just use
the r8169 driver, on the D945GCLF with an Atom 230 board you need a
r8101 driver

If it is an original Intel board D945GCLF with the Atom 230, I suggest
downloading the driver from the Intel website
http://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?agr=Y&ProductID=2916&DwnldID=16242&strOSs=39&OSFullName=Linux*&lang=eng
I compiled the driver manually (at the time elrepo didn't exist) from
the Intel website, it has been working fine, and I regularly check my
tcpdump, dmesg even states that it enter promiscuous mode and exits
> device eth0 entered promiscuous mode
> device eth0 left promiscuous mode
only thing I did that wasn't in the manual is manually delete the r8169
drivers of my kernel, I did have problem when I didn't do this

awk is probably the most readable way. In traditional shell stuff like
this used to be done in awk or sed
awk -F. '{print $(NF-2)}'
sed -n 's/^.*\.\([^\.]*\)\.[^\.]*\.[^\.]*$/\1/p'
Now you _can_ do it totally inside a modern shell in a variety of ways.
Here are three options (tested with ksh93; _should_ work in bash, but
not tested)
1) Use IFS to split the string
a=foo.var.VALUE.baz.lala
OIFS="$IFS"
IFS="."
set -- $a
IFS="$OIFS"
shift $#-3
echo $1
2) variation using arrays
a=foo.var.VALUE.baz.lala
OIFS="$IFS"
IFS="."
set -A A -- $a
IFS="$OIFS"
let x=${#A[*]}-3
echo ${A[$x]}
3) Using string pattern matching
a=foo.var.VALUE.baz.lala
front=${a%.*.*.*}
b=${a#$front.}
b=${b%%.*}
echo $b

Without trying to make code this early in the A.M., I'll give an algorithm that will work entirely in shell. Then the man page should give the details. 1. Make a subshell, either as a separate file or inline using braces-type stuff 2. Inside that, use the set command to change the field separator to "." 3. Use the set command with the string use wish to parse. This sets each field into $1, $2, ... 4. Alternate algorithm # 1 Use the shell variable $# (IIRC) to see how many you have. Use the shell's math capabilities to calculate the variable number you want Use the shell to generate a command (eval, backslashes, ...) to reference that variable 5. Alternate algorithm # 2 do a while loop until $# = 3 (if it's already <= to 3, next is skipped shift access $1 6.

I had this exact same issue on one of my machines, and I found out that the "openib" (InfiniBand) package was installed and enabled, although not needed. The InfiniBand modules were loading the ipv6 module as a dependency, that way it was being indirectly activated. After uninstalling the RPM and rebooting the machine, it no longer has IPv6 active. If that is not the specific case with you, see in the output of "lsmod" if ipv6 is being used by another module, if that is the case, you can try to see who is pulling that module and try to desactivate that one.

I modified the driver to force the register to always load rx=AllowMe|AllowAll|AllowBroadcast|AllowMulticast. I surrounded it with printk statements so I know that it is entering and exiting the rx setting. It acts like this variable is never being written to the chip register. Hmmm, I think I need to look at their code some more to make sure they ARE writing to the register. Despite the kernel messages, the chip does not enter the promiscuous mode.

[CentOS] Cannot get LD_LIBRARY_PATH to work under NX (freenx)
Hello, I'm trying to get the LD_LIBRARY_PATH set from .bash_profile (Centos 5.3 fully updated). This is a part of my .bash_profile: export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/home/szyman/omnet/omnetpp-2.3p1/lib export R_HISTSIZE=20 Everything works fine under standard ssh login, but under NX client the LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable is missing (the R_HISTSIZE is exported properly).

This is probably not related to NX, but to the terminal emulator you are using (gnome-terminal, kterm, etc.). Some of them do not open "login" shells (the ones that read .bash_profile) but only "interactive" shells (the ones that read .bashrc). Moving those lines from .bash_profile to .bashrc should work for both cases (as .bash_profile usually sources .bashrc) and solve your problem in both SSH sessions and NX sessions.

However, moving this to .bashrc is a workaround. If I log in graphically to the console the LD_LIBRARY_PATH from .bash_profile is set correctly.

I use the "real" NX, not FreeNX, and I know it installs under /usr/NX, so I know it will use LD_LIBRARY_PATH to find its own libraries. I believe it will probably reset (erase) the contents of LD_LIBRARY_PATH once the O.S. processes (window manager, etc.) are started. As I said, if your terminal emulator opened a "login" shell you would not have problems leaving the setting in .bash_profile, as it would be read again when you open a new shell (if you are starting your application through a shell). However, I believe this is not really very standardized. As a rule of thumb, I try to put as much as possible in .bashrc and leave only the source of .bashrc in .bash_profile, as this increases the chances of it "just working". And while you say "moving this to .bashrc is a workaround", I would say that using LD_LIBRARY_PATH is a workaround, or at least a kludge, since software that is properly installed would never need it... The interaction of different software packages that need to use it will always cause this kind of issues, and there is usually nothing much short of other workarounds or kludges that can be done about it...

[CentOS] Networking Issue
Need some opinions on making a multihomed box more resilient to failure. This server runs asterisk and performs nat and firewalling for an office. Its wan nic is plugged directly into a cable modem and I am stuck with it being configured as a dhcp client. The lan nic services a small office, and has a static IP but of course, no default gateway. When an internet outage occurs, asterisks sip stack tanks and the pbx dives. So I have setup fqdn's/ip's in the hosts file for all sip peers it will attempt to resolve, and setup a local dns with all rfc1912 zones so every query asterisk can possibly make will be answered locally. Now it seems there is still one last hurdle, when the connection is yanked to simulate a complete outage, asterisk still goes down. I can only assume this happens now as a result of no default gateway? Would setting up a silly route for 0.0.0.0/0 to say 127.0.0.1 for the internal nic in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/route-eth1 with a metric higher than what the ISP's dhcp servers default gw would be possibly cure this? My hope is that when the wan nic goes down, a route is still available. I can't think of any other network shortcoming that is left when that external nic goes down, I am hoping this is finally it, so asterisk will stop core dumping and yelling "Serious Network Trouble".

Last I checked the 'metric' number in the linux routing table is really only used when your using a routing daemon. as far as default routes go, it should not have any impact. I suspect the route is not the issue, I suspect that the app is trying to talk to something external and then fails, it will fail the same if you try to point it to a router that goes nowhere. tcpdump should be able to tell you who the host is trying to talk to. strace might reveal why. nate ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

Yes, but I would recommend you to go with 64-bit OS anyways. Even though PAE might work reasonably well if you have 4GB or 6GB or 8GB and with your current applications, 64-bit will keep working well when you need to upgrade your machine to 16GB or 32GB and run additional applications or newer versions that need to address more than 4GB per process.
