Why is ncat not found on Git Bash? - http

user_1 (master *) 1_EchoServer $ python -m http.server 8000
Serving HTTP on 0.0.0.0 port 8000 (http://0.0.0.0:8000/) ...
127.0.0.1 - - [30/Sep/2017 18:57:11] "GET / HTTP/1.1" 200 -
Set up a simple server. I want to connect to it with ncat to learn HTTP.
I install ncat (pip install nmap):
user_1 Documents $ pip install nmap
Requirement already satisfied: nmap in c:\python36\lib\site-packages
Then, when I try and connect, cmd not found. It was working earlier. Not sure how I broke it.
user_1 Documents $ pip install nmap
Requirement already satisfied: nmap in c:\python36\lib\site-packages
user_1 Documents $ ncat -l 9999
bash: ncat: command not found
I am using git bash on windows, and I have set up python36 on c drive and changed env variables and path accordingly.

I have been in this problem today and I solved it.
the Nmap command must be in the $PATH environment variable for the discovery service account. To do this on windows do the following steps
Click Start > Control Panel > System
Click the Advanced tab, and select Environment Variables.
Edit the Path system variable and add the directory where Nmap is installed.
Restart the computer.
If you do this task, Nmap should be available to services on the computer and the command will be found in the terminal

The Python "nmap" package which you installed with pip install nmap is only an output parsing library. It does not include the Nmap binary. The "nmap" package available in the Windows Subsystem for Linux (a.k.a. Bash on Windows, a.k.a. Ubuntu on Windows) does not currently work properly and is unsupported.
The only place to get Nmap (and Ncat) in ready-to-use format (binary executable) on Windows is directly from nmap.org.

how to install OpenStack on Ubuntu in 2022

On youtube there are many guides that show how to install openstack on ubuntu I have tried them and they seem not to work
For example with Devstack I fail every time the installation with .Stack.sh, with MicroStack I fail the initialization
I can't install OpenStack in any way!
could somebody help me?
I have installed openstack from various different ways but for me installing through Devstack is the easiest and the most convenient way to do it.
Let me share the installation steps that I use:
Firstly few prerequisites:
A fresh Ubuntu 20.04 installation (Ubuntu 18.04 Works)
8 GB RAM (4 GB RAM works)
4 vCPUs (2 vCPUs works)
Hard disk capacity of 20 GB (min 10 GB)
Step 1 : apt update -y && apt upgrade -y
Step 2: Create Stack user:
sudo adduser -s /bin/bash -d /opt/stack -m stack
echo "stack ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL" | sudo tee /etc/sudoers.d/stack
su - stack
Step 3:
git clone https://git.openstack.org/openstack-dev/devstack
cd devstack
Step 4: Create devstack configuration file
vim local.conf
Paste this:
[[local|localrc]]
# Password for KeyStone, Database, RabbitMQ and Service
ADMIN_PASSWORD=admin
DATABASE_PASSWORD=$ADMIN_PASSWORD
RABBIT_PASSWORD=$ADMIN_PASSWORD
SERVICE_PASSWORD=$ADMIN_PASSWORD
# Host IP - get your Server/VM IP address from ip addr command
HOST_IP=0.0.0.0
Step 5: ./stack.sh
The setup will take about 10-15 minutes depending upon your system. Once installation is complete you can access the dashboard using https://your-ip/dashboard
Note: Incase the stack.sh fails make sure to use ./unstack and ./clean.sh before you use stack.sh again.

How to install R on Solaris on a VirtualBox virtual machine?

This Q&A is a response to this comment. The answer to the question in the comment is not trivial, is too big for a comment, and not suitable as an answer to the question in that thread (answering my own question is officially encouraged). If you have a better answer please post it!
The question is: How to install R on Solaris on a VirtualBox virtual machine?
A more up-to-date version is available from csw: r_base. To install, see the example in Getting started where you replace vim with r_base:
pkgadd -d http://get.opencsw.org/now
/opt/csw/bin/pkgutil -U
/opt/csw/bin/pkgutil -a r_base
/opt/csw/bin/pkgutil -y -i r_base
To install a development environment, you might also want:
/opt/csw/bin/pkgutil -y -i gcc4g++
/opt/csw/bin/pkgutil -y -i texlive
Start by downloading and installing Oracle VM VirtualBox.
Then download and unzip the Oracle Solaris 11.1 VirtualBox Template. After you unzip the Oracle template you should see a file called OracleSolaris11_1.ova, that's what you'll open in VirtualBox.
Start VirtualBox, click on File, then Import Appliance, then navigate to chose the ova file you just extracted. It will take some time to import.
Start the Solaris virtual machine by clicking on the start button on VirtualBox. It will take some time to start up and you'll be prompted to add a root password, user name and user password. You'll then use those details to log in, wait for the system to load, choose gnome to ensure you get a desktop environment, and choose your time zone, keyboard layout and language (mine seems to highlight Chinese as the default choice, so be careful not to click through that one too quickly).
Eventually you'll get a desktop, right-click on the desktop and click open terminal, then in the terminal type (or paste):
sudo wget https://oss.oracle.com/ORD/ord-3.0.1-sol10-x86-64-sunstudio12u3.tar.gz && sudo wget https://oss.oracle.com/ORD/ord-3.0.1-supporting-sol10-x86-64-sunstudio12u3.tar.gz
That will connect to the internet and download two files you need. The next line will unpack those two archives:
sudo tar -xzvf ord-3.0.1-sol10-x86-64-sunstudio12u3.tar.gz && sudo tar -xzvf ord-3.0.1-supporting-sol10-x86-64-sunstudio12u3.tar.gz
And then this next line installs R, watch for the prompts after you run the line:
sudo bash install.sh
A lot will flash by in the terminal, concluding with Installation of <ORD> was successful
Now the next bit is where I deviate from the instructions here because I didn't understand them. You'll move all files beginning with lib from the archives that you unpacked into another directory where they are needed by R:
sudo mv lib* /usr/lib/64/R/lib/
That will return nothing in the terminal. Then we can run R simply by typing in the terminal like so
R
And now you should have a regular R session running in the terminal.

SSH Issue on AIX 6.1

I recently upgraded the openssl version on AIXX 6.1 server.
The install went fine.
But now I'm unable to start new ssh sessions from puty to the server and I'm getting the error "Connection Refused".
But I have one putty terminal open which is active.
I tried the command startsrc -s sshd and it returns a new pid but I'm not able to start new sessions.
I tried the following command too and it gives the foll error:
root:stud -> $ /usr/sbin/sshd -de
exec(): 0509-036 Cannot load program /usr/sbin/sshd because of the following errors:
0509-150 Dependent module /opt/freeware/lib/libcrypto.a(libcrypto.so.0) could not be loaded.
0509-152 Member libcrypto.so.0 is not found in archive
And sshd is inoperative.
root:stud -> $ lssrc -s sshd
Subsystem Group PID Status
sshd ssh inoperative
How can I resolve this issue.
I'm not sure how it worked the first time. That is odd. The error says you need the lib crypto library. Is it installed? i.e. what does
ls /opt/freeware/lib/libcrypto.a
return? If it exists, you want to try:
ar t /opt/freeware/lib/libcrypto.a
and you should see libcrypto.so.0 inside. My guess is one of those two will not be true and you need to install it. But it might be that libcrypto.so.0 will not load for its own reasons.
Is this the official ssh package for AIX or is it something you got somewhere else? (I just compile mine from the source from scratch but that's not easy sometimes).

mpiexec.hydra - how to run MPI process on machines where locations of hydra_pmi_proxy are different?

I am trying to run a simple MPI program using MPICH over a cluster of two machines. However, one is running Fedora 17 and the other is running Debian Squeeze - not necessarily a problem, but the issue is that the two distros put their mpi execs in different directories:
When I run the following from host1:
mpiexec -hosts host2 -np 1 -wdir /home/chris/src/mpi/ ./mpitest
it fails with the following error
bash: /usr/lib/mpich2/bin/hydra_pmi_proxy: No such file or directory
This seems to be because hydra_pmi_proxy is installed in /usr/lib/mpich2/bin on the Fedora machine but in /usr/bin on the Debian machine. I assume that when I spawn the process from host1 via ssh, it expects to find hydra_pmi_proxy in the same place on host2.
The program runs ok on both machines if I just run it locally on that node - I only get a problem when trying to run it on both.
I have searched the MPICH documentation for a way to override to remote path to hydra_pmi_proxy, but to no avail.
Can I do this somehow? I thought one of the advantages of MPICH was that it can easily handle hetrogeneous hosts....
Any insights would be most appreciated!
I managed to solve this problem not installing mpich hydra and the terminal (eg apt-get install MPICH2 or hydra). But instead I downloaded the source code: http://www.mpich.org/downloads/ (being the stable version).
Then I ran the following command on the machines Master and slave: export PATH = / home / you / mpich: $ PATH (On my computer I installed on my mpich directory).
Just solved this problem!
Thanks!
This can be solved by installing MPICH via its source code and mount the installation directory in the node in the same directory as the directory on server. then use export PATH = /home/you/mpich-installation-directory/bin: $PATH only on server.
This problem can be solved in NFS configuration with: exportfs -var (in master machine).
You have your /mirror directory, but it is necessary to add the directory /usr in /etc/exports:
/usr *(rw,sync,no_subtree_check)
In the client machine, edit /etc/fstab and add:
master-ip/usr /usr nfs defaults 0 0
Save and run the command mount -a.
After run df -h to see the mounted directory from master in slave/client.

What does cifs_mount failed w/return code = -22 indicate

I am trying
sudo mount -t cifs //<server>/<share> -o username=user#domain,password=**** /mnt/<mountpoint>
error message:
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on //server/share,
missing codepage or other error
In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
dmesg | tail or so
The syslog has
CIFS VFS: cifs_mount failed w/return code = -22
I am able to mount the same share on another centos system. I can ping the server, mount point directory has been created.
I ran into this problem when using a host name and solved it by using an IP address. E.g.:
use
mount -t cifs //192.168.1.15/share
rather than
mount -t cifs //servername/share
Another possible solution is to install
cifs-utils
.
Ah, the dreaded -22. Basically this seems to be used as a catchall for "something didn't work", although technically it's referred to as an invalid argument.
The client does IMHO a very poor job of telling you the actual problem. (This may not be its fault - it doesn't always have access to that information).
However -- have you checked the logs on the server/machine you are connecting to?
I was connecting to an OS X samba server, and learned from what I found in the logs there that it was necessary to specify additional options under -o as follows:
nounix,sec=ntlmssp
Among the things these settings enable are "allow long names", and "ignore UNIX filename endings"...sec is to specify security flags.
Another possibility is that you're trying to access a filesystem of a type that mount.cifs can't actually handle.
For RHEL/Centos install package - "cifs-utils"
Maybe move the target?
sudo mount -t cifs -o username=user#domain,password=**** //<server>/<share> /mnt/<mountpoint>
Or maybe this solution? (Ubuntu, Debian methods)
sudo apt-get install smbfs
Or for CentOS, RedHat, Fedora try:
sudo yum install samba-client
I had a similar issue on Ubuntu 12.04 with the "mount" package (version 2.20.1-1ubuntu3).
It happened when I was trying to mount the server share using its hostname rahter than its IP.
Another way to solve the issue on Ubuntu was to install the cifs-utils package. That way I could also mount the samba share using the exact same command line (or fstab) but with hostname.
sudo mount -t cifs //hostname/share -o username=user,password=pwd /mnt/share
Just did a clean install of Ubuntu 12.04 LTS and got this trying to hook up my Linux HTPC.
Solved it by running: sudo apt-get install cifs-utils then remounting it.
CIFS returns code "-22" in many cases (not only invalid arguments).
For me installing keyutils did the trick:
apt-get install keyutils
My distribution is "Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS".
I figured this out by increasing the logging verbosity of CIFS:
echo 7 > /proc/fs/cifs/cifsFYI
# disable again via:
#echo 0 > /proc/fs/cifs/cifsFYI
Documentation on the bitmask ("7") for cifsFYI can be found here: https://www.kernel.org/doc/readme/Documentation-filesystems-cifs-README
After trying to mount once more dmesg included more helpful information:
Dec 7 12:34:20 pc1471 kernel: [ 5442.667417] CIFS VFS: dns_resolve_server_name_to_ip: unable to resolve:

I have Ubuntu Server 12.10 x64 installed as a VMware VM, running on OS X 10.8 (Mountain Lion).
On the Mac, in SYSTEM PREFERENCES > SHARING > FILE SHARING (on), I added a folder to share. For my tests, I created a new folder within my Public folder called "ubuntu".
In Ubuntu, I issued the following commands:
sudo mkdir /media/target
sudo mount.cifs //10.0.20.3/ubuntu /media/target -o username=davidallie,nounix,sec=ntlmssp,rw
Ubuntu prompted me for the password and, once entered, mounted the folder. I then ran:
df -H
which allowed me to verify the mounts and mount-points.
This has recently manifested thanks to a kernel bug in v5.18.8+, I was able to reproduce on v5.18.9 and v5.18.11.
Here is the relevant ticket on kernel.org, quote:
it appears that kernel 5.18.8 breaks cifs mounts on my machine. With
5.18.7, everything works fine. With 5.18.8, I am getting:
$ sudo mount /mnt/openmediavault/
mount error(22): Invalid argument
Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g. man mount.cifs) and kernel
log messages (dmesg)
The relevant /etc/fstab line is:
//odroidxu4.local/julian /mnt/openmediavault cifs
credentials=/home/julas/.credentials,uid=julas,gid=julas,vers=3.1.1,nobrl,_netdev,auto
0 0
Here is the offending commit, and here is the fix, which applies cleanly to v5.18.11. The cause is, from what I understand, a bug in old versions of the samba server in the negotiation protocol.
If this is your issue, you can:
patch your kernel yourself;
downgrade to v5.18.7;
switch to an LTS kernel;
use the userspace (and also really slow and awful) gvfs-smb;
upgrade the samba version on your server; or
add vers=2.0 to the mount.cifs options in /etc/fstab.
Note that while I haven't tried the last one personally, the venerable #SEBiGEM has confirmed in the comments that it works for v5.18.10.
Note also that I didn't try upgrading samba on the server at all because I hate touching the box it's running on - every time I upgrade anything everything breaks. Doing so might also not be an option for those with NAS appliances.
As a personal sidenote, it's a little sad that so many different things can cause -22. My answer is correct, but very very niche and specific to this point in time. I imagine in a month it will simply be useless noise.
Just experience the problem on RHEL 5. You don't need to install the samba suite, just the samba-client and any dependencies.
Maybe it's too late, but simplest solution described in kernel bug 50631:
in the latest code, unc mount parameter in mandatory. Modified command works for me:
sudo mount -t cifs //<server>/<share> -o username=user#domain,password=****,unc=\\\\<server>\\<share> /mnt/<mountpoint>
Try run the comamnd:
$modinfo cifs
filename: /lib/modules/3.2.0-60-virtual/kernel/fs/cifs/cifs.ko
version: 1.76

If your getting any error then cifs is not installed. Just check with your admin. I thought it helps out.
Adding the option vers=3.0 to the mount command worked for me: sudo mount -t cifs -v <src> <dst> -o ...,vers=3.0,...
You need to install cifs-utils first , just as follows:
sudo yum install cifs-utils
I know this is old, but on older cifs-utils versions, you may have to add the following two lines to /etc/request-key.conf
create cifs.spnego * * /usr/sbin/cifs.upcall -c %k
create dns_resolver * * /usr/sbin/cifs.upcall %k
Workaround without installing additional packages (cifs-utils adds another 81mb in Debian Stretch):
$ FILESERVER_IP=$(getent hosts myfileserver.com | awk '{ print $1 ; exit }')
$ sudo mount -t cifs //${FILESERVER_IP}/<share> -o username=user#domain,password=**** /mnt/<mountpoint>
Many answers, but wasn't work for me.
Solution:
My NAS didn't support Samba 3.0, on which my mount switch automatically.
So I downgraded smb version:
mount -t cifs //192.168.0.2/Share -o rw,vers=1.0,username=*****,password=******* /media/1
It's work.
