====unix Keyword 17====
Source Code, Object Code, Binary Code, Library
===Definition===
The source code for a program is the raw, un-processed by the compiler, file. Written in a programming language and used to further develop the software. The object code is produced by the compiler. It is generally a sequence of instruction that is used within the running the code. The Binary code is the machine language that is the final output of the compiler. This is actually was produces the desired results by the source code. The Library is the standard set or characters used in the correct syntax to tell the compiler what is needed to do.
===Demonstration===
Source Code example
#include
int main()
{
printf("yo dude");
return(0);
}
====unix Keyword 18====
Pattern Matching
===Definition===
Pattern matching is using the syntax of search programs to find conditions that meet the requested quarry. The most commonly used program for searching is the grep command. Taken from the man pages, Grep is defines as, "Grep searches the named input FILEs (or standard input if no files are named, or the file name - is given) for lines containing a match to the given PATTERN".
===Demonstration===
Syntax for grep
grep 'word' filename
grep 'string1 string2' filename
cat otherfile | grep 'something'
command | grep 'something'
command option1 | grep 'data'
grep --color 'data' fileName
Example taken from another source
grep -v bash /etc/passwd | grep -v nologin

====unix Keyword 19====
Regular Expressions
===Definition===
The term regular expressions is speaking about a set of characters that make up the words of patterns of a search. These are used when looking for specific strings of text that match the quarry. This is very much like the explained grep command earlier but focuses us into the actual, expression, wording used.
===Demonstration===
For example
grep -i man heroes.txt
We are searching for any string that meets the expression "man" in the text file "heroes.txt". The output is the following.
Catwoman
Batman
Spider Man
Wonder Woman
Ant Man
Aquaman
Martian Manhunter
====unix Keyword 20====
Filtering
===Definition===
In Unix a filter is a way of using commands and pipes command that can manipulate the output of file. Two of the most powerful and popular Unix filters are the sed and awk commands.
===Demonstration===
The "sed" command allows us to look search a file and replace characters. For example in the following junk file. I have call cat to present the contents of the file. I then use a pipe to link in the sed command. Sed then looks as what is being outputted by cat and finds anything that is an "e" and replaces it with "E".
$ cat junk.txt | sed -e "s/e/E/"
corE
worm sEed
jEwel
====unix Keyword 21====
Shell Scripting
===Definition===
Shell scripting is a way that you can automate routine tasks. It allows the user more flexibility and control over the operation of the system.
===Demonstration===
Following example from the SSH manual. You can see by this example, that the more complex shell scripts take on the look and feel of the C programming language. We have presented a list and are going to work through the list.
#!/bin/sh
fruitlist="Apple Pear Tomato Peach Grape"
for fruit in $fruitlist
do
if [ "$fruit" = "Tomato" ] || [ "$fruit" = "Peach" ]
then
echo "I like ${fruit}es"
else
echo "I like ${fruit}s"
fi
done
Output of the script
I like Apples
I like Pears
I like Tomatoes
I like Peachs
I like Grapes

====unix Keyword 22====
networking, UNIX Networking Tools
===Definition===
I love networking.. and there are many flexible tools with unix. Networking is the communication between computers. It is bringing those computers together to share resources, make work groups or just set up a game of QuakeIII.
Some common commands
* finding host/domain name and IP address - hostname
* test network connection – ping
* getting network configuration – ifconfig
* Network connections, routing tables, interface statistics – netstat
* query DNS lookup name – nslookup
* communicate with other hostname – telnet
* outing steps that packets take to get to network host – traceroute
* view user information – finger
* checking status of destination host - telnet
===Demonstration===
Examples from the lab46 side
ab46:~$ hostname
lab46
lab46:~$ ifconfig
-bash: ifconfig: command not found
lab46:~$ nslookup
-bash: nslookup: command not found
lab46:~$ telnet

====unix Keyword 23====
Security
===Definition===
Security on a Unix system comes from a few areas of concentration. Using permissions for users and groups is one way to keep key areas of the system out of the reach of unwanted side effects. Another way is to use smart passwords. Insuring that passwords are change every 3 months, are unique and have both alpha and numeric elements. When it comes to a Unix server patching is the most frequently used method. Finding exploits and deploying methods to fix the seen threat. Other best practices are firewalls, iptables, white/black lists etc.
===Demonstration===
Use of the lsof commands that shows a list of open files and what or who opened them.
lab46:~$ lsof | less

X Window System
===Definition===
The X Window System, X11, is the basic graphical user interface (GUI). X11 sits between the computer and the user acting like a translator. Taking the input from the user in the form of the mouse and keyboard and translating it to changes within the system.
===Demonstration===

Utilize the ntpq command
===Definition===
The ntpq command is a utility program that monitors the NTP deamon, ntpd. NTPQ stands for Network Time Protocol Query. It runs and interactive mode by using the command line and can write variables. "Ntpq uses NTP mode 6 packets to communicate with the NTP server, and hence can be used to query any compatible server on the network which permits it", Man pages.
===Method===
Research, discover and implement.
===Measurement===
The ntpq command give and output requesting arguments.
lab46:~$ ntpq
ntpq>
Check to make sure that the deamon is monitor is running. The following pgrep will feed back the process code ot ntpq.
lab46:~$ pgrep ntpd
961
The -p arguments shows the servers and their sink...
lab46:~$ ntpq -p
