Jacques_Stry | Morning | 05:35 |
Kilos | hi Jacques_Stry | 05:35 |
* Kilos waves to inetpro | 05:55 | |
Padroni | Morning | 06:42 |
Kilos | hi Padroni | 06:42 |
Jacques_Stry | Hey Padroni | 06:42 |
Padroni | hey Jacques_Stry | 06:42 |
Padroni | Good article - thanx | 06:42 |
Padroni | I was writing a massive article on RFI | 06:43 |
Padroni | and how vulnerabilities in Timthumb is being used to import shell scripts hidden in images into CMS systems | 06:43 |
Padroni | or rather, Timthumb's inability to properly sanitize domain names is being exploited | 06:44 |
Padroni | and then I got a time-out and lost the whole article | 06:44 |
Padroni | And it is for moments like that, that my wife do not allow me to own a firearm. | 06:45 |
Kilos | eish | 06:45 |
Jacques_Stry | RFI? | 06:45 |
Padroni | Remote File Inclusion | 06:45 |
Padroni | method of hacking a site by importing a shell-script via Timthumb | 06:45 |
Kilos | start again | 06:45 |
Padroni | they fool the server into thinking that you are using an image | 06:45 |
Padroni | while the image is fake | 06:45 |
Kilos | no rest for the wicked | 06:45 |
Padroni | or rather | 06:46 |
Padroni | the image contains a shell-script hidden in the EXIF 'make' and 'model' tags | 06:46 |
Padroni | complicated thing | 06:46 |
Padroni | hence the research that went into it | 06:46 |
Padroni | the article wasn't meant for our site though | 06:47 |
Padroni | our site is not about hacking | 06:47 |
Padroni | it was to be a training thing for the guys at work | 06:47 |
Jacques_Stry | Sounds like a pretty interesting article - if you do manage to write it send me a link plz ;) | 06:48 |
Padroni | ok | 06:48 |
Jacques_Stry | That is the reason why I write long articles on drive and then copy paste it at the end. | 06:50 |
Padroni | yeah, I should have done the same | 06:51 |
Padroni | in future, I will | 06:51 |
Jacques_Stry | But do it on google drive - that way even if eskom kicks you in the nuts you still have a copy | 06:52 |
Padroni | I kinda don't trust Google | 06:52 |
Padroni | but will keep it in mind | 06:52 |
Padroni | say something, damnit | 07:04 |
inetpro | good mornings | 07:05 |
Padroni | hi | 07:06 |
Kilos | morning inetpro | 07:07 |
Kilos | haha google not my friend either | 07:08 |

Kilos | hi Xethron | 07:38 |
Squirm | morning | 07:43 |
Kilos | hi Squirm | 07:44 |
Padroni | hi Squirm | 07:57 |
Padroni | hi Xethron | 07:57 |
Squirm | Hey Padroni | 07:57 |
Squirm | Padroni: do you do much pen-testing? | 07:58 |
Padroni | much less than I want to | 07:58 |
Padroni | but I can | 07:58 |
Padroni | why? | 07:58 |
Padroni | you got a URL for me? | 07:58 |
Squirm | Just cuirous, looked at doing that for a while | 07:58 |
Squirm | No :P | 07:58 |
Padroni | we pentested a site the other day | 07:59 |
Padroni | or rather | 07:59 |
Squirm | Maybe when we figure out our auto-scaling :D | 07:59 |
Padroni | a guy at work asked me to see if I can get into the admin section | 07:59 |
Padroni | got in by disabling the meta-refresh tag on his admin screen | 07:59 |
Padroni | the security was THAT bad... | 07:59 |
Kilos | sjoe | 07:59 |
Padroni | no session-id, no nothing | 08:00 |
Padroni | dude was selling timeshare he did not own | 08:00 |
Padroni | or was not his to sell | 08:00 |
Padroni | on a system as weak as that | 08:00 |
Padroni | not sure how he is still in business | 08:00 |
Squirm | heh | 08:01 |
Squirm | Should have booked yourself some timeshare while you were there ;) | 08:02 |
Squirm | As payment :D | 08:02 |
Squirm | For your work and not turning him in | 08:02 |
Kilos | lol | 08:02 |
Padroni | I only take leave once a year | 08:07 |
Padroni | then I head into the Kalahari for two weeks | 08:07 |
Padroni | no 3g | 08:07 |
Padroni | no dsl | 08:07 |
Kilos | all year | 08:07 |
Padroni | told my boss they should get our support guys more leave | 08:08 |
Padroni | the more they are away from work | 08:08 |
Padroni | hoe minder kak kan hulle aanjaag | 08:08 |
Padroni | he said no | 08:08 |
Squirm | that sucks | 08:08 |
Squirm | I get a whole 17 days I think | 08:12 |

Padroni | I think it is time for some Rammstein | 08:21 |
Kilos | kinda Jacques_Stry its just showning the grub boot menu without auto login in in 10 secs | 08:22 |
Kilos | but no more hanging it seems | 08:22 |
Jacques_Stry | Ouch... well fixable now so progress | 08:23 |
Kilos | yeah | 08:23 |
Kilos | he likes to hide boot splash and messed up somewhere in /etc/default/grub i think | 08:24 |
Squirm | Padroni: Ramnstein? Interesting taste, I haven't listened to them in a long time. My tastes have shifted slightly | 08:24 |
Jacques_Stry | >.< | 08:24 |
Padroni | I bought the Made in Germany cd Dec | 08:25 |
Padroni | been listening to it eversince | 08:25 |
Squirm | Wow | 08:25 |
Padroni | the rest of my family hates it | 08:25 |
Squirm | I used to like a few of their songs | 08:25 |
Squirm | Feir Feir | 08:25 |
Squirm | Du Hast | 08:25 |
Squirm | Uh... can't remember the other | 08:25 |
Padroni | The Made in Germany cd is like their 'Best of' | 08:26 |

Padroni | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kIBeYoP9Wi0 | 08:26 |
Padroni | I love that damn song | 08:27 |
Squirm | Padroni: I've shifted towards acoustic rock, indie, indie folk | 08:29 |
Squirm | Very acoustic :P | 08:29 |
Squirm | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EZvHZgii7XI | 08:29 |
Padroni | my music taste varies so much | 08:29 |
Padroni | I listen to Nina Simone to Rammstein | 08:29 |
Padroni | that guy looks like he gets his ass kicked a lot | 08:30 |
Padroni | just for combing his hair like that... | 08:30 |
Padroni | greatest South African band ever: | 08:33 |
Padroni | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wolZPKBcag4 | 08:33 |

Squirm | which I head was terrible :P | 08:45 |

arnaudmez | banks are not kind here if u see what iI mean | 09:46 |
Kilos | ouch | 09:46 |

arnaudmez | I passed accros bankrupty many times | 09:47 |
Kilos | eish | 09:47 |
Padroni | hi magellanic | 10:07 |
magellanic | heya | 10:07 |
Kilos | hi magellanic | 10:10 |
magellanic | greets | 10:11 |
arnaudmez | hi magellanic | 10:17 |
magellanic | hi hi | 10:18 |
Kilos | hi jrgns | 10:26 |
jrgns | hey Kilos | 10:26 |
arnaudmez | did one here tried to open .pub files under *ubuntu, *linux, *openoffice.org, *libreoffice | 10:27 |

Jacques_Stry | JINX exchange took a beating today - microsoft update? | 10:30 |
magellanic | beating? | 10:39 |
Jacques_Stry | Load was higher than normal | 10:39 |
Jacques_Stry | http://stats.jinx.net.za/showtotal.php | 10:39 |
magellanic | ah :) | 10:40 |
magellanic | interesting to see how it grew, on the last graph | 10:40 |
Jacques_Stry | Week 11 I can understand - I'OS update with microsoft update and xbox update | 10:41 |
Jacques_Stry | yea last graph is pretty scary | 10:41 |
Jacques_Stry | We are almost doubling our Internet usage each year | 10:43 |
magellanic | nice | 10:43 |
magellanic | what is it capable of, seeing the constant 8Gbps and peak of 16Gbps on the first graph | 10:44 |
Jacques_Stry | Much more! | 10:44 |
Jacques_Stry | if you look at http://stats.jinx.net.za/ you will see a lot of ISP's have 10gb's ports so total traffic can go a lot higher | 10:47 |
magellanic | ah okay | 10:48 |
Jacques_Stry | But unfortunately this is only local so would be awesome if we could have seen cumulative totals of Int. traffic. | 10:49 |
Jacques_Stry | The Cape Town Exchange sees a lot less traffic. http://stats.cinx.net.za/showtotal.php | 10:50 |
magellanic | so pretty much everyone peers now? | 10:50 |
magellanic | I remember mweb were one of the first hey | 10:51 |
Jacques_Stry | Yea I remember too :) Telkom was a hard one to get on the list. | 10:51 |
magellanic | can imagine | 10:53 |
magellanic | but it did so well, getting the likes of vodacom/mtn on too | 10:53 |
magellanic | good job | 10:53 |
Jacques_Stry | But it's ridiculously expensive to get a port: R40k membership and + R5k for a 1gb port | 10:56 |
Jacques_Stry | and that's monthly | 10:56 |
magellanic | wow, had no idea | 11:06 |
Kilos | eina | 11:06 |
magellanic | why though, wasn't it about free and open peering? | 11:06 |
Jacques_Stry | Haha well the bandwidth is still a lot cheaper then running it through int | 11:07 |
Jacques_Stry | Not to mention latency's | 11:08 |
Jacques_Stry | Afrihost has been erratic today... | 11:12 |
Jacques_Stry | Getting ping spikes every now and then | 11:13 |
Jacques_Stry | But Afrihost says they are making changes to the QOS system that should improve everything so hoping that works out | 11:16 |
magellanic | do you run something like smokeping? | 11:25 |
Jacques_Stry | Running IPFire - has a Ping graph | 11:28 |
arnaudmez | Kilos: what are the duties of the person in charge of the LoCo | 11:33 |
Kilos | lol | 11:33 |
Kilos | just to keep things running smoothly | 11:33 |
Kilos | you have to try to keep everyone happy and to feel welcome in your community | 11:34 |
Kilos | we used to have a leader but we have all become such good friends that we dont elect a leader anymore | 11:34 |
Kilos | the leader is the primary contact person so you have to read official mails and so on | 11:35 |
magellanic | sounds like too much work | 11:36 |
Kilos | the whole secret imo is keeping everyone happy to be part of the group | 11:37 |
Kilos | ai! magellanic i dont think so actually | 11:37 |
Kilos | with human nature the way it is you have to be a diplomat mostly | 11:38 |
Kilos | Maaz diplomat | 11:38 |
Maaz | A diplomat is a person who can tell others to go to hell in such a nice way that they look forward to the trip | 11:38 |
Jacques_Stry | >.< | 11:38 |
magellanic | lol | 11:38 |

nlsthzn | *yawn* | 18:43 |

magespawn | we are trying to do more in the same amount of time | 18:43 |
Kilos | yeah | 18:43 |
magespawn | the time is fixed | 18:44 |
Kilos | i maybe even need stronger testimonials as well | 18:44 |
magespawn | can you cat .pdf? | 18:44 |
Kilos | who me? | 18:45 |
magespawn | anyone | 18:45 |
Kilos | ohi superfly | 18:45 |
Kilos | lemme try magespawn | 18:45 |
nlsthzn | if you can you will get ascii I am sure :p | 18:46 |
nlsthzn | no readable text | 18:46 |
Kilos | cat: .pdf: No such file or directory | 18:46 |
magespawn | there is away to combine pdf, iwas just wondering if cat can do it too | 18:46 |
Kilos | oh | 18:47 |
Kilos | didnt you look at man cat | 18:47 |
Kilos | was waiting for pro to say that | 18:47 |
magespawn | man cat | 18:48 |
magespawn | lol | 18:48 |
magespawn | ai | 18:48 |
Kilos | i hate those man pages | 18:48 |
Kilos | but if i dont get that then i get rtfs or rtfm | 18:49 |
Kilos | with caps | 18:49 |
magespawn | you are not the only one who gets that | 18:50 |
magespawn | i think it at least three times a day | 18:50 |
Kilos | lol | 18:52 |
inetpro | magespawn: you use kde? | 18:54 |
magespawn | not at the moment inetpro, xfce on both machines | 18:56 |
inetpro | ahh | 18:56 |
magespawn | kde was running very nicely on the netbook, but the display kept throwing a wobbly when i turned on the desktop cube and such | 18:58 |
inetpro | magespawn: would have suggested you install okteta, but I guess you should rather try hexedit | 18:58 |
magespawn | hexedit? | 18:58 |
* magespawn goes to look | 18:58 | |
inetpro | view the pdf file with a hex editor and you'll understand why you can't just cat it | 18:59 |
Kilos | just a question | 18:59 |
Kilos | what about pdf2txt | 19:00 |
Kilos | something like that rinds a bell | 19:00 |
Kilos | rings | 19:00 |
Mopkop | pdf is actually a scripting language. | 19:00 |
Mopkop | A compiled scripting language and does not contain text. | 19:00 |
inetpro | pdf is good for printing | 19:01 |
Kilos | http://www.pdf2txt.com/ | 19:01 |
Mopkop | Kilos: Good idea! | 19:01 |
Kilos | but that is bypassing what magespawn wants to do | 19:01 |
inetpro | pdf is not meant to be converted to text or any other format | 19:01 |
inetpro | it's a published format for printing | 19:02 |
Kilos | ya but i used that for some reason long ago | 19:02 |
Kilos | and it rang a bell | 19:02 |
inetpro | always try to get the original | 19:02 |
Mopkop | Good if you want to copy-paste from a pdf, or read a pdf in the terminal. | 19:03 |
Kilos | what was magespawn trying to do | 19:03 |
Mopkop | Which branch of ubuntu-africa is currently used on http://ubuntu-africa.snyman.info/? | 19:03 |
Kilos | trunk is the new one | 19:04 |
Kilos | oh | 19:04 |
Kilos | inetpro explain plse | 19:04 |
inetpro | hang on | 19:05 |
* inetpro still finding my feet here | 19:05 | |
magespawn | if you have mutiple .pdf to combine them into one so that you can then send one file | 19:05 |
inetpro | landed home late | 19:05 |
Kilos | ah | 19:05 |
Mopkop | I'm sure there is some program that can do that. | 19:06 |
Kilos | just put them all in one folder and send the folder? | 19:06 |
inetpro | Mopkop: eish! | 19:06 |
inetpro | Mopkop: it is not lp:ubuntu-africa | 19:07 |
inetpro | superfly: fix it man! | 19:07 |
inetpro | magespawn: http://askubuntu.com/questions/52040/is-there-a-better-pdf-to-text-converter-than-pdftotext | 19:08 |
inetpro | Kilos: ai! | 19:11 |
inetpro | he sleeps too early these days | 19:12 |
Kilos | he is busy inetpro not sleeping | 19:12 |
inetpro | no man... can't be busy if he doesn't work on our stuffs | 19:12 |
inetpro | our stuffs is not urgent, it's important as well | 19:13 |
magespawn | i have used pdfunite before | 19:13 |
inetpro | superfly: come do some work for a change | 19:13 |
Kilos | lol | 19:14 |
Kilos | he has man | 19:14 |
inetpro | :-) | 19:14 |
inetpro | Mopkop: you believe him? | 19:14 |
Kilos | shame my poor fly | 19:14 |
Kilos | he just has to cut some extra things after debconf is over | 19:15 |
Kilos | but committed already | 19:15 |
inetpro | debconf is only next year | 19:15 |
Kilos | they meet lots | 19:15 |
Mopkop | I have the same problem, always too busy to do the stuff I'm supposed to do, but I havetime to read a book on the clothing of Brazilian slaves in the early 19th century :( | 19:16 |
inetpro | ai! | 19:16 |
Kilos | lol | 19:16 |
Kilos | no fly does work for other things | 19:16 |
Kilos | he is too deep into ubuntu, debian and app maintaining | 19:16 |
superfly | come do work?! | 19:17 |
Mopkop | That reminds me... Have an assignment due... two days ago :( | 19:17 |
inetpro | Kilos: we don't accept your excuses | 19:17 |
superfly | you think I sit around at home doing nothing? | 19:17 |
magespawn | Mopkop: now that is something i would not even have thought to read about | 19:17 |
inetpro | superfly: explain your absense please! | 19:17 |
Kilos | sjoe | 19:17 |
superfly | inetpro: work, DebConf, family, real life. | 19:17 |
superfly | Last night at 10:30 I was dealing with one of our clients. | 19:18 |
magespawn | absence ? | 19:18 |
Kilos | ya | 19:18 |
superfly | Tonight I'm busy evaluating my colleagues for their upcoming biannual reviews. | 19:18 |
inetpro | superfly: that's not good enough | 19:18 |
Kilos | when my fly says have patience its for a reason | 19:18 |
* superfly gives inetpro a kick | 19:18 | |
inetpro | eish! | 19:18 |
magespawn | yoh yoh yoh yoh | 19:19 |
Kilos | hee hee pro very cheeky tonight | 19:19 |

Kilos | inetpro passop he has a sjambok too hey | 19:19 |
inetpro | ai! | 19:19 |
* inetpro gets the message | 19:20 | |
inetpro | ok, ok oom vlieg | 19:20 |

inetpro | ek verstaan | 19:20 |
Kilos | inetpro why did you give me this link? | 19:21 |
Kilos | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Membership/Boards | 19:22 |

Kilos | who votes peesp to a board | 19:23 |
inetpro | Kilos: I gave you that? | 19:23 |
inetpro | when? | 19:23 |
Kilos | 2 days ago | 19:23 |
superfly | inetpro: you mean like this? https://code.launchpad.net/ubuntu-africa/+activereviews | 19:24 |
Kilos | lol | 19:24 |
Kilos | see he has been working pro | 19:24 |
Kilos | apologise now | 19:24 |
inetpro | superfly: uh, but the base is broken, not? | 19:25 |
inetpro | with twit code | 19:26 |
inetpro | oh, it says unmerged code | 19:27 |
superfly | nope, removed it all | 19:27 |
superfly | I don't know what Kilos's merges and branches are, but I'm not merging them in | 19:27 |
inetpro | superfly: I apologise unconditionally | 19:27 |
superfly | inetpro: you didn't even see my awesome Ubuntu Africa theme | 19:27 |
inetpro | superfly: I noticed | 19:27 |
inetpro | that's why I wanted to use that as a base man | 19:28 |
Kilos | he did but dunno if he refreshed ove rand over | 19:28 |
inetpro | superfly: looking goo | 19:28 |
Kilos | gonna be the bestest site | 19:28 |
superfly | Right, no more chatting, I'm "logging out" of IRC | 19:28 |
inetpro | ai! | 19:29 |
inetpro | goo? | 19:30 |
Kilos | lol | 19:30 |
inetpro | s/goo/good/ | 19:30 |
magespawn | can you use 'join' on .csv files created under another os? | 19:31 |
inetpro | magespawn: join? | 19:31 |
magespawn | going to love this | 19:31 |
magespawn | man join | 19:31 |
inetpro | magespawn: WAYTTD? | 19:31 |
inetpro | magespawn: a CSV is a CSV is not a CSV | 19:33 |
inetpro | oops | 19:33 |
Kilos | lol | 19:33 |
* inetpro said that? | 19:33 | |
Kilos | s6rydom in full flight again tonight | 19:34 |
Kilos | strydom | 19:34 |
magespawn | studying for linux + exam, on page and chapter about processing text using filters using linux command line tools | 19:34 |
inetpro | Kilos: no, me surname is something else | 19:34 |
Kilos | oh no | 19:35 |
Kilos | at times you are goosie strydom | 19:35 |
magespawn | i forget the file extension for Comma Seperated Value files, not sure if it is .txt | 19:36 |
* inetpro at times comes from a different planet as well | 19:36 | |
inetpro | magespawn: it's typically always supposed to be a text file | 19:36 |
inetpro | extensions don't mean much on linux | 19:37 |
Kilos | now i have to stay up till after mignight again | 19:38 |
inetpro | magespawn: when you say "created under another os" you probably mean to say on DOS or Windows? | 19:38 |
Kilos | windows | 19:41 |
magespawn | yes specifically windows, pastel allows you to export to excel which allows you to export to csv, was the specific scenario i was thinking about | 19:41 |
Mopkop | magespawn: There was something about how unix handels ASCII which differs from hoe windows handels it, which can mess up the file. I can't remeber what it was, but had problems with ftp and text files once. sending from windows to linux. | 19:42 |
inetpro | magespawn: what typically happens if you take those files to Linux, you see a lot of '^M' cahacters | 19:42 |
magespawn | you could then join mutiple exports, if the all started with employee numbers so that all that info is in one csv .txt file | 19:42 |
inetpro | actually \r characters or carriage control character | 19:43 |
inetpro | several ways of handling those | 19:44 |
inetpro | one easy method is with tr | 19:44 |
inetpro | $ tr -d '\r' < input.txt > output.txt | 19:44 |
inetpro | then | 19:44 |
inetpro | $ cp output.txt input.txt | 19:44 |
inetpro | or with sed | 19:45 |
inetpro | $ sed -i.bak -e 's/\r//g' input.txt | 19:45 |
inetpro | that ^^ creates a backup file with extension .bak | 19:45 |
inetpro | magespawn: see http://linuxcommando.blogspot.com/2008/05/delete-windowsdos-carriage-return.html | 19:46 |
magespawn | ty inetpro | 19:46 |
inetpro | oh and for CSV, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comma-separated_values | 19:46 |
Kilos | sjoe google really is your friend | 19:47 |
inetpro | Kilos: no, I'm just lazy to explain it all | 19:47 |
Kilos | note "yours" | 19:47 |
* inetpro used to do lots of dos2unix conversions | 19:49 | |
inetpro | things can get very messy very quickly if you don't know these basics | 19:50 |
inetpro | and a hex editor comes in handy for that as well | 19:51 |
inetpro | or even just 'hexdump -C file' | 19:53 |
inetpro | or 'cat -ev file.txt' | 19:54 |
inetpro | Mopkop: you can now check out lp:ubuntu-africa again | 20:02 |
* inetpro just merged superfly's theme | 20:02 | |
inetpro | sorry for the delay | 20:02 |
Mopkop | let's try... | 20:03 |
inetpro | oh and thanks a $(large quantity) for the efforts superfly! | 20:04 |
inetpro | Kilos: oh and that thing about Membership/Boards | 20:06 |
Kilos | we actually love the fly, but dont tell him | 20:06 |
Mopkop | Yes, now it works! But it doesn't display images? | 20:06 |
* inetpro didn't give you that link in here | 20:06 | |
Kilos | you gave it somewhere | 20:07 |
inetpro | uh | 20:07 |
Kilos | maybe pm or africa or something | 20:07 |
inetpro | don't think so | 20:07 |
Kilos | sigh | 20:07 |

Kilos | i forget man i have over 30 tabs open in opera that i dont close so i dont lose them | 20:08 |
Kilos | bookmarking is useless if you have to search tons of bookmarks | 20:09 |
Kilos | thats why when the site is done and board over i gonna close everything | 20:10 |
