Checking Connection Via Ping using Bash

Create bash file on the /tmp (you can put anywhere), this is just an example.

$ touch /tmp/ping.sh

added this code inside it

#!/bin/bash
ip=192.168.110.33
ping -c 3 $ip > result
grep 100% result > /dev/null
if [ $? = 0 ]
        # result dari $? kalau 0 artinya tidak output grep di screen
        # artinya, grep tidak mendapatkan apa yang di cari
        # dalam hal ini grep mencari 100% packet loss (host yg off)
        #
        then
        echo "Host off"
        else
        echo "Host on"
fi

Make sure the script has permission to execute

$ chmod +x ping.sh

Test it !

$ sh ping.sh

Result is "Host on" it mean the computer you try to check is a live.

Host on

else computer you try to check is off

Host off

How to Creating Partition table on linux using fdisk

I will create two partitions, the first one for data and one for swap, for data I would use 8 GB. while the remaining 500 MB for the swap. let's get started: D I need to know, where is my disk attached, there is a lot way to know, where is my device attached, but here i use my way :D

# dmesg | grep blocks:
   sd 2:0:0:0: [sda] 41943040 512-byte logical blocks: (21.4 GB/20.0 GiB)
   sd 3:0:0:0: [sdb] 16777216 512-byte logical blocks: (8.58 GB/8.00 GiB)

Or

# cat /proc/partitions
   major minor  #blocks  name
   8        0   20971520 sda
   8        1   10240000 sda1
   8        2    1024000 sda2
   8        3    9706496 sda3
   8       16    8388608 sdb

Or

# fdisk -l

OpenWrt Attitude Adjustment (Trunk) Exrootfs (Jail Break)

First, plug your external drive to linux and follow this step. Update your packages database

$ opkg update
   Downloading http://192.168.77.246:8080/Packages.gz.
   Inflating http://192.168.77.246:8080/Packages.gz.
   Updated list of available packages in /var/opkg-lists/attitude_adjustment.

Install following package

$ opkg install kmod-usb-core # Kernel support for USB
$ opkg install kmod-usb2 # Kernel support for USB2 (EHCI) controllers
$ opkg install kmod-usb-ohci #Kernel support for USB OHCI controllers
$ opkg install kmod-usb-storage #Kernel support for USB Mass Storage devices
$ opkg install block-mount
$ opkg install kmod-fs-ext4 # Kernel module for the filesystem with which you formatted the partition you want to mount
$ opkg install fdisk # utility to create partitions table

To install package, you can always you this syntax

$ opkg install package_name

Before you step forward, you must prepare your disk partition, i choose fdisk for creating partition table, and i make 3 partition table, two partitions for my data and one for swap file. you can see here for instruction using fdisk. Now, it is time to create filesystem on it, i choose ext3.

$ mkfs.ext3 /dev/sda1 for my data
$ mkfs.ext3 /dev/sda2 for my openwrt rootfs
$ mkswap /dev/sda3 for swap

Next step is create mount point and edit /etc/config/fstab, so every time you restart router, everything back as before :D

$ mkdir -p /home --> mount point /dev/sda1
$ mkdir -p /mnt/rootfs --> mount point /dev/sda2

Editing /etc/config/fstab, my fstab file looks like this

$ vi /etc/config/fstab
config global 'automount'
        option from_fstab '1'
        option anon_mount '1'

config global 'autoswap'
        option from_fstab '1'
        option anon_swap '0'

config mount
        option target '/home'
        option device '/dev/sda1'
        option fstype 'ext3'
        option options 'rw,sync'
        option enabled '1'
        option enabled_fsck '0'
 
config mount
        option target '/mnt/rootfs'
        option device '/dev/sda2'
        option fstype 'ext3'
        option options 'rw,sync'
        option enabled '1'
        option enabled_fsck '0'

config swap
        option device '/dev/sda3'
        option enabled '1'

Reboot it, after reboot check your mount point

$ df -h

OpenWRT on TP-Link MR3420 v1.2 (OpenWrt Attitude Adjustment 12.09-beta2)

Here's my experiences using OpenWRT on TP-Link MR-3420, i don't posting detail how to upgrade from TP-Link original firmware to OpenWRT firmware, because i think you should know how to upgrade firmware than continue to configuring your new firmware, don't worry, there is a lot information on the net about upgrading firmware from TP-Link firmware to OpenWRT firmware.

Here what i did with my Router Download Firmware OpenWRT untuk MR3420 versi Attitude Adjustment Versi 12.09-Beta2 For fresh upgrade (from TP-Link to OpenWRT)

openwrt-ar71xx-generic-tl-mr3420-v1-squashfs-factory.bin
openwrt-ar71xx-generic-tl-mr3420-v1-squashfs-factory.bin

For system upgrade (from OpenWRT to OpenWRT)

openwrt-ar71xx-generic-tl-mr3420-v1-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin
openwrt-ar71xx-generic-tl-mr3420-v1-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin

My goal is :
1. Create Rootfs on External Storage (Exroot / Jail Break)
2. Having Samba Server on it
3. Also Ftp server
4. And My DLNA server
5. Oh...My 3GS USB Dongle also must be worked on it, and yes, it worked too, even when i used usb hub

And here's my router and StoreJet

Wireless Router TP-Link MR-3420 v1.2.

Huawei E173

And Yes, I can have all of it !!

[SOLVED] Getting PostgreSQL 9.1.4 module for PHP-5.4.7 on Slackware 14

Slackware 14 by default carrying PHP-5.4.7 and running smooth well, BUT unfortunately it doesn't come with PostgreSQL, after searching for a while, i decided to install PostgreSQl from scratch.

PostgreSQL 9.1.4 :

Source : postgresql-9.1.4.tar.bz2

SlackBuild : postgresql.tar.gz

Follow this step to compile and install PostgreSQL 9.1.4 on Slackware 14.0 :

1. cd /tmp

2. wget ftp://ftp.postgresql.org/pub/source/v9.1.4/postgresql-9.1.4.tar.bz2

3. Extract SlackBuild script tar -zxvf postgresql-9.1.4.tar.gz

4. Go to Extracted directory cd postgresql-9.1.4

5. Run this command sh postgresql.SlackBuild /tmp/postgresql-9.1.4.tar.bz2

6. After all finish, it will create /tmp/postgresql-9.1.4-i486-1_SBo.tgz

7. Install it using installpkg postgresql-9.1.4-i486-1_SBo.tgz

8. Run this command su postgres -c "initdb -D /var/lib/pgsql/data"

9. Then run this /etc/rc.d/rc.postgresql start

10. Done

Now, the hard part ^^, actually after you find solution, you will said...Hhhmmm just like that hah :D, because PHP-5.4.7 inside Slackware 14 is not compiled using --with=pgsql option, and because i don't want to touch anything about PHP that i'm already set all option and some configuration running smothly on PHP-5.4.7, and also because my server is used for production. the point is, i just want to add pgsql.so into php.ini. That's it, nothing more.

And here is the solution.

PHP-5.4.7 :

Source : php-5.4.7.tar.bz2

SlackBuild : php-pgsql.tar.gz ( I Know this script for PHP-5.4.6, just relax okay ^^ )

Follow my step please :

1. cd /tmp

2. wget http://www.php.net/distributions/php-5.4.7.tar.bz2

3. wget http://slackbuilds.org/slackbuilds/14.0/libraries/php-pgsql.tar.gz

4. Extract SlackBuild script tar -zxvf php-pgsql.tar.gz

5. Go to extracted directory cd php-pgsql

6. Then mcedit php-pgsql.SlackBuild, and change version to correct one (5.4.7)

7. mcedit php-pgsql.info and change, change version and MD5SUM too.

8. Then run php-pgsql.SlackBuild /tmp/php-pgsql.tar.gz

9. After finish, you should get /tmp/php-pgsql-5.4.7-i486-1_SBo.tgz

10. Installpkg /tmp/php-pgsql-5.4.7-i486-1_SBo.tgz

11. Enable pgsql module by editing mcedit /etc/php/pgsql.ini and enable extension=pgsql.so by removing ;

12. Done

Proved :

root@slackware:~/Desktop# php -m | grep pgsql

If everything okay, you will get pgsql as result.

My info.php

And here my SlackBuild for PHP-5.4.7

Connect to Rsync Server on Windows 7 (64 Bit)

I have combined some simple tool for running Rsync server on Windows 7, i took them from various poppular project like Cygwin, CwRsync, and Instant WIndows Rsync Server from Winsupport, and to make my life simple i created some simple script and config file to running Rsync server.

Here my simple script to runnig Rsync server on Windows 7 :

@echo off
rem
rem Ask which drive is to be shared and create the rsyncd.conf file.
rem
cls
echo.
echo INSTANT RSYNC SERVER
echo.
echo.
echo * * * W A R N I N G * * *
echo.
echo No security is used on this rsync server. Anyone will be able to
echo connect to rsync share and copy files. Be sure to cancel the rsync
echo server when you are finished.
echo.
echo.
echo.Close this windows to stop Rsync Server !!!
echo.
rsync.exe --config rsyncd.conf --daemon --no-detach

And here is my rsyncd.conf

use chroot = false
strict modes = false
hosts allow = *
log file = rsyncd.log
# Module definitions
# Remember cygwin naming conventions : c:\work becomes /cygwin/c/work
#
[test]
path = /cygdrive/D/server
read only = false
transfer logging = yes

And save it as rsync.bat  and double click it to run rsync server. soon after double click it you will see the Dos Prompt window show up. Close that windows to stop rsync server.

Now it is time to check our new rsync server.

From windows command promt (Windows to Windows) :

rsync.exe 192.168.110.131::

The output should test

Now, i will try to transfer file to rsync server via rsync client on my windows :

rsync -avz /cygdrive/d/client 192.168.110.131::test/ 

Cygdrive/D mean Drive D, cygdrive/d/client mean D:\client 

And yes, my files transferred ^^.

From Linux Console (Linux to Windows) :

Testing connection to Rsync server on Windows and the result is test, it mean oke

Transfering file from linux to windows :

rsync -avz crontab-script/ 192.168.110.131::test/

As you can see, it worked too ^^

In Linux world you don't need type /cygdrive/x because cygwin want emulate linux environment on windows, that why it created some layer to accesses windows drive using /cygdrive/windows_drive.

Running Rsync Server as Service on Windows 7 (64 Bit)

What if i want running Rsync server as service on Windows, here :

cygrunsrv -I "RSYNC" -d "Rsync daemon" -p rsync.exe -a "--config=rsyncd.conf --daemon --no-detach" -f "Fast incremental file transfer"

This command will create Rsync daemon service on Windows 7

To start service you can type

cygrunsrv.exe  --start rsync

To stop service you can type

cygrunsrv.exe  --stop rsync

Running Rsync as Daemon on Windows 7 (64 Bit)

After few days strungle with Bash and Rsync on Windows, I decided to combine some tools from main package, because i only need Bash, Rsync and some linux tols to run on Windows 7, and here my experience.

Altought many site said that Rsync only need, this package :

• Rsync.exe - the executable program
• cygwin1.dll - the main library file needed by all Cygwin programs
• cygpopt-0.dll - the library for handling command-line options

In fact, Rsync.exe (Rsync Version 3.0.9) still need one file cygiconv-2.dll, so here's my completed file for running Rsync Version 3.0.9 on Windows 7 (64 Bit).

• Rsync.exe - the executable program
• cygwin1.dll - the main library file needed by all Cygwin programs
• cygpopt-0.dll - the library for handling command-line options
• cygiconv-2.dll - the library to handling command-line option, also necessary to implement emulator functionality

After all tools complete collected on one folder, i starting create Rsync.conf, a file that contain some neccessary configuration to start Rsync server, and here my Rsync.conf :

use chroot = false
strict modes = false
hosts allow = *
log file = Rsyncd.log
# Module definitions
# Remember cygwin naming conventions : c:\work becomes /cygwin/c/work
[test]
path = /cygdrive/D/
read only = false
transfer logging = yes

after configurating Rsync, it's time to running Rsync server with this simple command

Rsync.exe --config=Rsyncd.conf --daemon --no-detach

that command will bring up Windows DOS Prompt Windows, to stop the Rsync server is simple, just close the Windows Prompt.

To check if your Rsync server running or not, is simple to, from Windows DOS Promt, type the following command :

Rsync.exe localhost::

If you see "test" as output, then your Rsync server is running.

Simple Hah ^^

rsync files

Part-04 Create Cron Jobs

After creating batch file, this time we would like to run that batch file every time we need it, that why we need Cron.exe from kolab.com. as explain in kolab.com, to setup cron.exe is very simple way, it just take 3 step.

1. copy the files cron.exe and crontab to a folder of your choice
2. edit the file crontab (see the examples as a reference)
3. create a link to cron.exe and move it to the startup folder

Just follow that 3 step and everything would be okay. and here i will copy paste explanation from kolab.com

The Crontab file
Each line of CRONTAB has the following structure:

Position:	Values:
Minute	0-59
Hour	0-23
Day	1-31
Month	1-12
Day of week	0-6 (0=Sunday, 1=Monday, ..., 6=Saturday)

Instead of minute, hour, day, month or day of week it's also possible to specify a *. A * represents all possible values for that position (e.g. a * on 2nd position is the same as specifying all the possible values for hour)

It's also possible to specify several values separated by commas: e.g. if you want a command to be executed every 10th minute so you can specify 0,10,20,30,40,50 for minute. A range of values can be specified with a -: e.g. value 0-12 for hour -> every hour a.m.

Comments

Every line not starting with a number is treated as a comment.

Examples
execute a command every minute

# This is a comment.
* * * * * c:\tools\CheckForNewFiles.exe

execute the program backup.bat every hour

# This is a comment.
0 * * * * c:\tests\backup.bat

do a backup every day at 0.30 p.m.

# This is a comment. 30 12* * * c:\tests\backup.bat

start a backup every tuesday at midnight

# This is a comment.0 0 * * 3 c:\tests\backup.bat

scan drive c for viruses on the 1st of every month at 2.45 p.m.

# scan for known viruses45 14 1 * * c:\path_to_scanner\scan c:

copy some files every half hour 

# This is a comment.0,30 * * * * xcopy c:\docs\*.* y:\users /s

copy a file every hour (a.m.) only on weekdays

# System commands need the command interpreter specified:0 0-12 * * 1-5 c:\...\cmd.exe /c "copy c:\... e:\"

for another great information for crontab scheduling is wikipedia

Part-03 Creating Batch File

Part-03 Creating Batch File

Oke, after downloading all aplication and create some backup profile, this time we would like to create batch file, so every backup profile that already created will be running  in sequence. and here's the bacth file i created for my backup profile, change as needed.

@echo off

start/wait D:\ProgramsApps\Deltacopy\DeltaC.exe 002009.dcp

start/wait D:\ProgramsApps\Deltacopy\DeltaC.exe 002010.dcp

start/wait D:\ProgramsApps\Deltacopy\DeltaC.exe 002011.dcp

start/wait D:\ProgramsApps\Deltacopy\DeltaC.exe 002012.dcp

start/wait D:\ProgramsApps\Deltacopy\DeltaC.exe 002013.dcp

and save it with name DeltaC.bat

Explenation :

start/wait Start application and wait for it to terminate

D:\ProgramsApps\Deltacopy\DeltaC.exe is my aplication location/path, change as needed

002009.dcp and another *.dcp file is file that holding backup profile name

In simple way start/wait D:\ProgramsApps\Deltacopy\DeltaC.exe 002009.dcp , it's command windows to run DeltaC.exe from it location and running 002009.dcp backup profile.

Part-02 Create Backup Profile

Part-02 Create Backup Profile

After downloading all aplication, it's time to me to create backup profile using deltacopy (DeltaC.exe), double click DeltaC.exe and create backup profile as you need:

Step-01 : Create backup profile, Just give profile name as you like, in host name field insert with your rsync server name or ip, and for directory name insert with backup location (diretory) on your rsync server. Don't check Assign to scheduler because we would like to use Cron.exe as Task Scheduler.

Step-02 : File list, replace it with the file that you want to backup

Step-03 : for file option, i don't change anything except additional parameters, in this field i put : --exclude='Thumbs.db' --exclude='.DS_Store' --exclude='._*' --exclude='Desktop.ini' --exclude='*.lnk'

Step-04 : In authentication, put username and password that you allow to connect to your rsync server, this configuration is done on server side.

Step-05 : This is only optional choice, do it only if you want notified by email for every backup profile you created, in this example i use my local email server.

make sure you click on Test Email button to test your email notification, if you got display like bellow, it means your setting is correct, if not...than find it by your self :D

Part-01 Create Backup from Windows To Linux Via Rsync and Cron
Part-03 Creating Batch File

Part-01 Create Backup from Windows To Linux Via Rsync and Cron

After a months searching and researching to create simple and clean backup strategy, i found cool and simple solution  for backing up from windows 7 (64 bit) to Linux server running Rsync server, and here's my backup startegy.

Why i would like to use portable application? Because windows every aplication you installed on your windows system will leave a lot of registry junks. that why i choose deltacopy (unzip mode0 and another one. which is free and gpl. as the website said :

In general terms, DeltaCopy is an open source, fast incremental backup program. Let's say you have to backup one file that is 500 MB every night. A normal file copy would copy the entire file even if a few bytes have changed. DeltaCopy, on the other hand, would only copy the part of file that has actually been modified. This reduces the data transfer to just a small fraction of 500 MB saving time and network bandwidth.

And here's the download links

I used only client software because i don't want to running backup server on windows.

and to schedule the rsync backup, i would like to use Cron.exe from kalab.com (mirror), once again, i don't want use windows task scheduler, it's suck program that only running on administrator mode ( not user mode) that way  i use Cron.exe, clean and simple, and the finnest part is, the contab configuration file is compatible with linux crontab. as the web site said :

Cron scans the file CRONTAB every minute and checks every line if the specified time/date information matches the current time/date. If they are equal, the command line specified will be executed. A log file (cron.log) with the executed commands is written to the current directory.

After combining all of that aplication, i got this usefull aplication.

And how i do automatic backup using windows batch? see you on Part-02

Digital Forensik - Menelusuri Asal Muasal Email

Suatu hari anda mungkin pernah mendapatkan email seperti dibawah ini,

Selamat Anda Menang undian 3 Milyard, hadiah akan segera di transferkan ke Rekening anda paling lambat 1 minggu setelah email ini.

Atau email lainnya yang mengatakan anda mendapatkan undian ataupun harta warisan yang sangat banyak nilainya, Uuuppss....jangan senang dulu, karena di dunia digital hampir tidak ada yang mustahil, mustahil atau tidaknya hanya dibatasi oleh kemampuan dan teknologi yang ada saat ini.

Mari kita langsung bahas email yang saya terima pagi ini ^^,  silahkan lihat gambar dibawah ini :

Bagi banyak orang yang tidak paham masalah penipuan di dunia digital mungkin akan langsung mengadakan tumpengen untuk syukuran :D, namun sebaiknya kita telusuri dulu kebenaran email ini.

Email diatas hanya contoh yang dibuat oleh saya sendiri, jadi isinya memang tidak menunjukkan profesionalisme, karena yang akan dibahas bukan isinya, namun asal muasalnya ^^

Sebelum memulai bahasan singkat mengenai asal muasal email tersebut, kita harus paham dulu perjalanan si surat elektronik ini. email sama dengan surat yang dikirimkan via kantor pos. bila perjalanan surat itu jauh, misalkan kita kirim surat dari Surabaya ke Palangkaraya, maka surat tersebut akan melewati beberapa kantor pos (surat dikirmkan secara estafet via kantor pos) dan setiap memasuki kantor pos, surat tersebut akan di stempel sampai akhirnya sampai ke tangan si penerima, kalau tidak percaya coba lihat surat milik bapak / ibu masing, pasti ada stempel diatas prangkonya ^^.

Contoh surat yang mengalami perjalanan jauh
sehingga banyak stempel dari kantor pos yang disinggahinya

Nah...email juga sama, dalam pengiriman email, terdapat dua komponen dasar yang penting :

• MUA (Mail USer Agent) sebagai interface dalam penulisan email tersebut, misalkan Thunderbird, Seamonkey, Opera, Outlook, maupun Webmail.
• MTA (Mail Transfer Agent) yang bertugas mengirimkan email sampai ke tangan penerima, semacam Postfix, Sendmail, Qmail, dll, fungsinya sama dengan Kantor Pos dalam pengiriman surat, yang bertugas mengirimkan email dan memberi stempel pada email yang kita kirim.

Oke...sekarang back to email, kali ini saya akan memakai yahoo mail, karena email ini saya terima di yahoo mail. untuk mengetahui surat ini asli dari cimbniaga.com atau tidak, kita harus melihat stempel yang tertera pada email ini, dalam hal ini disebut header.

Untuk melihat header email di yahoo mail lihat gambar dibawah ini.

Dengan alasan kenyamanan MUA tidak akan menampilkan header dari email, namun kita masih bisa melihatnya, berikut saya akan sertakan header email tersebut, dan cara membaca header email adalah dari bawah ke atas.

Header email dari email diatas

Email diatas seolah-oleh berasal dari cimbniaga.com, namun kalau kita telusuri dengan teliti, maka email tersebut tidak pernah singgah di cimbniaga.com sama sekali, mari kita lihat dengan lebih teliti lagi ^^

• Received: from jupiter.anekakecap.lan (jupiter.anekakecap.lan [192.168.110.242]) by chronos.anekakecap.lan  artinya: sesorang dari jupiter.anekakecap.lan menulis email tersebut dan dikirimkan ke  "kantor pos" chronos.anekakecap.lan.
• Received: from 127.0.0.1 (EHLO chronos.anekakecap.lan) (123.231.238.245) by mta1229.mail.ac4.yahoo.com  with SMTP artinya: email tersebut dikirimkan ke mta yahoo.com oleh chronos.anekakecap.lan
• Dan akhirnya email yang seolah-olah dari CIMB Niaga tersebut sampai ke tangan si penerima.

Dari header tersebut tampak kalau email tersebut tidak pernah mampir ke CIMB Niaga, jadi kesimpulannya email tersebut palsu :).
