Scripts to create logins from bash command – for creating multiple accounts

2010-06-09 1 min read Fedora Linux

Heres the script:

cat «EOF > login.sh
for i in `cat logins` ; do
login=`echo ”$i”|awk -F”:” '{print $2}’`;
comment=”`echo ”$i”|awk -F”:” '{print $1}’`”;
gr=”`echo ”$i”|awk -F”:” '{print $3}’`”;
echo ”login –» $login –Comment –» $comment –Group –»$gr –”;
echo ”useradd -c ”$comment” -d /export/home/$login -m -g $gr -s /bin/bash $login”
useradd -c ”$comment” -d /export/home/$login -m -g $gr -s /bin/bash $login
done

You would need to create file called logins to store the comment, login name and the group. The group must have already been created. Here is an example of the file:

bash completion not working on Fedora

2010-06-06 1 min read Bash Fedora Linux

I had bash completion installed and after that I had made huge changes to my bashrc and also installed bashstyle. After this the bash-completion stopped working.

I had to spend a lot of time to figure out that the easiest solution was to source the bash-completion again in the end. 🙂

colors in bash -- script to display all the possible colors.

2010-06-06 3 min read Bash Fedora Linux

If you wanted to have colors in the bash output (including the colors in PS1-4), don’t you keep wondering how the color code would look on the terminal. So, I wrote this small script to show the complete color codes. This is how the output would look:

$\"Bash$

And here is the script:
