Unix Vs Powershell Commands: a Comparison (Under Development) Unix vs PowerShell Commands: A Comparison (Under Development) Unix Powershell/Cmd Description /dev/null out-null Instead of a pseudo-device, output can be directed to a command: do- something | out-null. To redirect other streams use: do-something 2>$null bash command, cmd, powershell create a subshell cat get-content output a file to stdout aliases: cat, gc, type cd set-location change directory aliases: sl, cd, chdir chmod See set-acl change file permissions attrib Windows handles file permissions very set-itemproperty differently cp Copy-item Copy a file or a directory curl invoke-webRequest -uri file retrieve a file using http alias: curl cut Select-Object Extract columns from output (not quite the same date get-date Display a date, extracting fields df get-disk Show free storage on the disk du Show disk utilization echo echo output a string, variables exit exit Exit a script or a subshell with an error code env get-childitem Env: List the values of environment variables exec start Launch a new process. The Powershell invoke-commmand (see su) version cannot set a file descriptor, it’s not a Windows concept export set set an environment variable file get-child file reports on the type of file by looking at its content. get-child only looks at the extension find get-child-item (use -filter, -recurse) locate a file based on pattern in it’s name finger N/A getfacl get-acl Retrieve ACL permissions grep NA General REcursive Pattern match https://devblogs.microsoft.com/scripting/use- A very poor substitute powershell-to-toggle-the-archive-bit-on- files/select-string -match head get-content -head n Retrieve the 1st n lines of a file history history Retrieve previous commands hostname $env:hostname Name of computer id $env:username Id of User.

  • Lab Exercise – Ipv4
    Lab Exercise – IPv4 Objective To learn about the details of IP (Internet Protocol). IP is the network layer protocol used throughout the Internet. We will examine IP version 4, since it is ubiquitously deployed, while the IP version 6 is partly deployed. The trace is here: https://kevincurran.org/com320/labs/wireshark/trace-ipv4.pcap The text file is here: https://kevincurran.org/com320/labs/wireshark/trace-ipv4.txt Requirements Wireshark: This lab uses the Wireshark software tool to capture and examine a packet trace. A packet trace is a record of traffic at a location on the network, as if a snapshot was taken of all the bits that passed across a particular wire. The packet trace records a timestamp for each packet, along with the bits that make up the packet, from the lower-layer headers to the higher-layer contents. Wireshark runs on most operating systems, including Windows, Mac and Linux. It provides a graphical UI that shows the sequence of packets and the meaning of the bits when interpreted as protocol headers and data. It col- or-codes packets by their type, and has various ways to filter and analyze packets to let you investigate the behavior of network protocols. Wireshark is widely used to troubleshoot networks. You can down- load it from www.wireshark.org if it is not already installed on your computer. We highly recommend that you watch the short, 5 minute video “Introduction to Wireshark” that is on the site. wget / curl: This lab uses wget (Linux and Windows) and curl (Mac) to fetch web resources.

  • K30503041: Creating a Virtual Server with ARP And/Or ICMP Disabled at Creation
    K30503041: Creating a virtual server with ARP and/or ICMP disabled at creation Non-Diagnostic Original Publication Date: Apr 16, 2020 Update Date: Apr 16, 2020 Topic You should consider using this procedure under the following condition: You want to create a new virtual server with the Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) and/or the Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) disabled at creation. Description In some network environments, you may want to create virtual servers that have ARP and/or ICMP disabled. When creating a new virtual server (one that does not use an IP address of an existing virtual server), you can enable or disable the virtual server. However, you cannot set the IP address of the virtual server with ARP and/or ICMP to 'disabled' when creating the virtual server. You can only enable or disable ARP or ICMP by modifying the virtual address that is automatically created when you create the virtual server. In this scenario, you create the virtual address with ARP and ICMP enabled at the time of creation. You can work around this scenario by creating the virtual address for the virtual server in advance with ARP and/or ICMP disabled. After creating the virtual address, you can then create the virtual server that references the same IP address of the virtual address as the destination IP address of the virtual server. Prerequisites You must meet the following prerequisite to use this procedure: Administrative access to the BIG-IP Configuration utility or the TMOS Shell (tmsh). Note: You cannot create a virtual address using the Configuration utility.

The shell is the wrapper around the system: a communication means between the user and the system The shell is the manner in which the user can interact with the system through the terminal. The shell is also a script interpreter. The simplest script is a bunch of shell commands. Shell scripts are used in order to boot the system. The user can also write and execute shell scripts. Shell – p. 3/55 Shell - which shell? There are several kinds of shells. For example, bash (Bourne Again Shell), csh, tcsh, zsh, ksh (Korn Shell). The most important shell is bash, since it is available on almost every free Unix system. The Linux system scripts use bash. The default shell for the user is set in the /etc/passwd file. Here is a line out of this file for example: dana:x:500:500:Dana,,,:/home/dana:/bin/bash This line means that user dana uses bash (located on the system at /bin/bash) as her default shell. Shell – p. 4/55 Starting to work in another shell If Dana wishes to temporarily use another shell, she can simply call this shell from the command line: [dana@granada ˜]$ bash dana@granada:˜$ #In bash now dana@granada:˜$ exit [dana@granada ˜]$ bash dana@granada:˜$ #In bash now, going to hit ctrl D dana@granada:˜$ exit [dana@granada ˜]$ #In original shell now Shell – p.

  • Configuring Your Login Session
    SSCC Pub.# 7-9 Last revised: 5/18/99 Configuring Your Login Session When you log into UNIX, you are running a program called a shell. The shell is the program that provides you with the prompt and that submits to the computer commands that you type on the command line. This shell is highly configurable. It has already been partially configured for you, but it is possible to change the way that the shell runs. Many shells run under UNIX. The shell that SSCC users use by default is called the tcsh, pronounced "Tee-Cee-shell", or more simply, the C shell. The C shell can be configured using three files called .login, .cshrc, and .logout, which reside in your home directory. Also, many other programs can be configured using the C shell's configuration files. Below are sample configuration files for the C shell and explanations of the commands contained within these files. As you find commands that you would like to include in your configuration files, use an editor (such as EMACS or nuTPU) to add the lines to your own configuration files. Since the first character of configuration files is a dot ("."), the files are called "dot files". They are also called "hidden files" because you cannot see them when you type the ls command. They can only be listed when using the -a option with the ls command. Other commands may have their own setup files. These files almost always begin with a dot and often end with the letters "rc", which stands for "run commands".
