  • Unix Command Line; Editors
    Unix command line; editors Karl Broman Biostatistics & Medical Informatics, UW–Madison kbroman.org github.com/kbroman @kwbroman Course web: kbroman.org/AdvData My goal in this lecture is to convince you that (a) command-line-based tools are the things to focus on, (b) you need to choose a powerful, universal text editor (you’ll use it a lot), (c) you want to be comfortable and skilled with each. For your work to be reproducible, it needs to be code-based; don’t touch that mouse! Windows vs. Mac OSX vs. Linux Remote vs. Not 2 The Windows operating system is not very programmer-friendly. Mac OSX isn’t either, but under the hood, it’s just unix. Don’t touch the mouse! Open a terminal window and start typing. I do most of my work directly on my desktop or laptop. You might prefer to work remotely on a server, instead. But I can’t stand having any lag in looking at graphics. If you use Windows... Consider Git Bash (or Cygwin) or turn on the Windows subsystem for linux 3 Cygwin is an effort to get Unix command-line tools in Windows. Git Bash combines git (for version control) and bash (the unix shell); it’s simpler to deal with than Cygwin. Linux is now accessible in Windows 10, but you have to enable it. If you use a Mac... Consider Homebrew and iTerm2 Also the XCode command line tools 4 Homebrew is a packaging system; iTerm2 is a Terminal replacement. The XCode command line tools are a must for most unixy things on a Mac.

  • How the /Etc/Passwd File Relates to the Laua User
    Page 1 (2) System Foundation 9.0 laua User and Group How the /etc/passwd File Relates to the laua User Scenario Most users who need access to the Lawson environment will need to have a user account set up on the Operating System where Lawson System Foundation 9.0 has been installed. Users will need resources allocated to run their jobs and space in the directory structure to store their print files. The user account on the Operating System is what allows the allocation of resources and space. In the example presented in this session, users are associated to the Unix Operating System and setup via the /etc/passwd file. The information stored on the user account in the file is used by Lawson’s Legacy Security System, laua. This scenario will present the /etc/passwd file and highlight the important parts of the user represented in the file and how it relates to user setup. Workflow Step 1 of 3: To verify that a user has an account on the Unix Operating System where the Lawson server resides, view the /etc/passwd file on the Lawson server. To do so, you must first access a command line which can be done either through LID (Lawson Insight Desktop) or through lawterminal which is command line access through the Lawson portal. This demonstration will use LID. First access your command line. Action: Type in 'cd /etc' and press the 'Enter' key. © Copyright Lawson Learning 2008 Page 2 (2) Step 2 of 3: You can use any method you choose to view the file.

  • Unix Security Overview: 1
    CIS/CSE 643: Computer Security (Syracuse University) Unix Security Overview: 1 Unix Security Overview 1 User and Group • Users – root: super user (uid = 0) – daemon: handle networks. – nobody: owns no files, used as a default user for unprivileged operations. ∗ Web browser can run with this mode. – User needs to log in with a password. The encrypted password is stored in /etc/shadow. – User information is stored in /etc/passwd, the place that was used to store passwords (not anymore). The following is an example of an entry in this file. john:x:30000:40000:John Doe:/home/john:/usr/local/bin/tcsh • Groups – Sometimes, it is more convenient if we can assign permissions to a group of users, i.e. we would like to assign permission based on groups. – A user has a primary group (listed in /etc/passwd), and this is the one associated to the files the user created. – Any user can be a member of multiple groups. – Group member information is stored in /etc/group % groups uid (display the groups that uid belongs to) – For systems that use NIS (Network Information Service), originally called Yellow Page (YP), we can get the group information using the command ypcat. % ypcat group (can display all the groups and their members) 2 File Permissions • File Permissions – The meaning of the permission bits in Unix. ∗ Owner (u), Group (g), and Others (o). ∗ Readable (r), Writable (w), and Executable (x). ∗ Example: -rwxrwxrwx (777) • Permissions on Directories: – r: the directory can be listed. – w: can create/delete a file or a directory within the directory.

  • Basic Unix/Linux Commands
    Unix/Linux Basic commands Learn the basics of grep, sed, awk, find, sort, uniq, cut, cat, etc We will study them using sample requirements 1. Determine all the users that are having at least two first names. Using /etc/passwd file as an input. 2. Replace all the bash shells with csh in the /etc/passwd file. Eg. /bin/bash should be replaced with /bin/csh. 3. Replace all the home directories with /home/missing in the same /etc/passwd file. 4. Count the number of lines in a file. 5. Count the number of words starting with letter b/B in /etc/passwd file. 6. Determine the most popular family name found in the /etc/passwd file. 7. Display all text file names in the current directory ordered by their name. 8. Display all the files having more than 100 bytes. 9. Display all the files that the current user has at least read permission. 10. Sort the content of the /etc/passwd file ascending/descending by the fifth column. 11. Display the first 25 lines from the /etc/passwd file. 12. Display the last 30 lines from the /etc/passwd file. 13. If a file has N lines display the lines between N/2 and N/2+10. 14. Display all the unique parent directories from the /etc/passwd file. Eg. on the sixth column we have the home directory, like: /home/scs/master/an1/gr246/abicr2020, from this we will consider the /home/scs/master/an1/gr246/ as the parent directory. 15. Display the first 10 characters from each line of /etc/passwd file.

  • Lab Intro to Console Commands
    New Lab Intro to KDE Terminal Konsole After completing this lab activity the student will be able to; Access the KDE Terminal Konsole and enter basic commands. Enter commands using a typical command line interface (CLI). Explain the use of the following commands, ls, ls –al, dir, mkdir, whoami, Explain the directory structure of a typical user. This lab activity will introduce you to one of the many command line interfaces available in Linux/UNIX operating systems and a few of the most basic commands. The command line interface you will be using for this lab activity is the console called the Konsole and is also referred to as Terminal. Note: As you notice, in the KDE system many features are written with the capital letter “K” in place of the first letter or the utility to reflect the fact it was modified for the KDE system. The original UNIX system did not use a graphical user interface GUI but rather was a command line interface (CLI) similar to the command prompt in Windows operating systems. The command line interface is referred to as a shell. Even today the command line interface (the shell) is used to issue commands on a Linux server to minimize system resources. For example, there is no need to start the GUI on the server to add a new user to an existing system. Starting the GUI will reduce the system performance because it requires RAM to run the GUI. A GUI will affect the overall performance of the server when it is supporting many users (clients).

  • Open Data/Open Source: Seismic Unix Scripts to Process a 2D Land Line
    Open Data/Open Source: Seismic Unix scripts to process a 2D land line Karl Schleicher k [email protected] John A. and Katherine G. Jackson School of Geosciences The University of Texas at Austin University Station, Box X Austin, TX 78713-8924 (January 29, 2012) Running head: Alaska ABSTRACT This paper describes how to process an internet downloadable 2D land line data set though a very basic processing sequence using Seismic Unix. The data from the Alaska North Slope has good signal, although it may be suitable for testing ground-roll and noise burst attenuation programs. The detailed steps to download the dataset from the Internet and process it are described. You should be able to follow these steps and recreate my results. I hope this will accelerate the testing and validation of programs developed in different research groups. The paper starts with background information such as data downloading, region overview, data acquisition, and previous processing. The scripts and custom programs for Seismic Unix translation, header load, qc, shotrecord velocity filter, deconvolution, CDP gather, velocity analysis, residual statics, stack, and post stack migration can be downloaded to 1 your computer. Header loading is not well described in other Seismic Unix documentation or papers. One approach to header loading is described here. The velocity analysis script is more advanced than what I found in previous publications. This paper is the beginning of an effort to build an open data/open source library for research, software testing, demonstrations, and user training. I encourage you to use these scripts and improve on my results.
