httperf

Getting httpref to compile with ssl support on Solaris 10 x86 was a challenge. First I downloaded it of course, then I applied these settings to my environment:

<geshi lang="bash"> export CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/local/ssl/include" export LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/ssl/lib" ./configure --prefix=/app/retailtools grep rpl_malloc * vi config.h

  1. Remove #define malloc rpl_malloc

make clean && make && make install export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/usr/local/ssl/lib" $ ldd /app/retailtools/bin/httperf

       libresolv.so.2 =>        /lib/libresolv.so.2
       libnsl.so.1 =>   /lib/libnsl.so.1
       libsocket.so.1 =>        /lib/libsocket.so.1
       libssl.so.0.9.8 =>       /usr/local/ssl/lib/libssl.so.0.9.8
       libcrypto.so.0.9.8 =>    /usr/local/ssl/lib/libcrypto.so.0.9.8
       libm.so.2 =>     /lib/libm.so.2
       libc.so.1 =>     /lib/libc.so.1
       libmp.so.2 =>    /lib/libmp.so.2
       libmd5.so.1 =>   /lib/libmd5.so.1
       libscf.so.1 =>   /lib/libscf.so.1
       libdl.so.1 =>    /lib/libdl.so.1
       libgcc_s.so.1 =>         /app/retailtools/lib/libgcc_s.so.1
       libdoor.so.1 =>  /lib/libdoor.so.1
       libuutil.so.1 =>         /lib/libuutil.so.1

</geshi>


tar

When I first compiled gnu's tar for Solaris, I had libiconv.so.2 dynamically linked. The problem with this is when I copied the tar binary to another machine I had to add libiconv.so.2 to LD_LIBRARY_PATH.

<geshi lang="bash"> $ ldd /app/retailtools/bin/tar

       libiconv.so.2 =>         (file not found)
       librt.so.1 =>    /lib/librt.so.1
       libc.so.1 =>     /lib/libc.so.1
       libaio.so.1 =>   /lib/libaio.so.1
       libmd5.so.1 =>   /lib/libmd5.so.1
       libm.so.2 =>     /lib/libm.so.2

</geshi>

I'm not sure if the LD_OPTIONS is needed, but in theory, this should allow the runtime linker to search a relative path. <geshi lang="bash"> $ export LD_OPTIONS='-R $ORIGIN/../lib' $ unset LD_LIBRARY_PATH $ ./configure --prefix=$HOME --exec-prefix=$HOME --with-static $ make && make install </geshi>

Now tar is compiled without a dependency on libiconv.so.2. <geshi lang="bash"> $ ldd tar

       librt.so.1 =>    /lib/librt.so.1
       libc.so.1 =>     /lib/libc.so.1
       libaio.so.1 =>   /lib/libaio.so.1
       libmd5.so.1 =>   /lib/libmd5.so.1
       libm.so.2 =>     /lib/libm.so.2

</geshi>

rsync

I was getting an error when transferring some files <geshi lang="bash"> $ rsync -e ssh ... rsync: error writing 4 unbuffered bytes - exiting: Broken pipe rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(464) $ rsync --version rsync version 2.5.4 protocol version 26 Copyright (C) 1996-2002 by Andrew Tridgell and others <http://rsync.samba.org/> Capabilities: 64-bit files, socketpairs, hard links, symlinks, batchfiles, no IPv6,

             64-bit system inums, 64-bit internal inums

</geshi>

I compiled a more recent rsync (2.6.9), and it fixed the issue.

I have a user installed rsync, and a locked down ssh. In order to rsync files, I use this command. <geshi lang="bash"> rsync -e ssh --rsync-path=~/bin/rsync -avz --progress source dest </geshi>

vim Solaris 5.8

source-highlight-2.7

<geshi lang="bash">

  1. First I needed to compile boost. This was not so bad

$ ./configure --prefix=$HOME --exec-prefix=$HOME --with-libraries=regex --enable-static=yes

  1. The I had to figure out how to get source-highlight to compile

$ ./configure --prefix=$HOME --exec-prefix=$HOME --enable-static=yes --enable-shared=yes CPPFLAGS=-I${HOME}/include/boost-1_34_1 \ --with-boost-regex=gcc41-1_34_1 </geshi>

Comma separate a list

The challenge here is to avoid a trailing comma. <geshi lang="bash"> $ echo "foo\nbar\n" | awk ' {printf "%s%s",s,$0;s=","}END{print ""} ' foo,bar </geshi>

Run a command on all hosts in a netgroup

<geshi lang="bash"> mrsh -P -c 'uptime' your-netgroup </geshi>

Find all members in a sudoers group

<geshi lang="bash"> ypmatch sqladmin group </geshi>
