Run a shell script at login?

I would like to run a simple shell script each time a user logs in. Currently, I have it wrapped in an Automator executable that is included in "Login Items", but figured there must be a more elegant way? Thanks.
More info:
The problem I'm trying to solve is that of file permissions when sharing one iTunes and one iPhoto library between multiple users on one computer. The libraries are located in /Users/Shared and the apps were pointed to the relocated libraries by holding down 'Option' on startup. The problem is that work done by each user in the iTunes or iPhoto library inherits the default permission settings of that user, making any new additions to the libraries, read-only to the other users. I'm using `chmod` on login to fix it. Let me know if you know of a better way to address this. Thanks again.

I wrote a simple shell script that executes each time a user logs in (well, actually, each time I log in, coz' it's not really applicable to other users). It syncs my work and home addressbooks and iCal calendars to one another.
I named it "sync". Then I read somewhere that if you wanted to make it double-clickable (to launch it from the Finder), I appended a ".command" filename extension (so it's now named "sync.command"). I also did a chmod 755 to that file so that it had execute privileges. Depending on whether you give each user their own copy of this thing, or keep a single copy in, say, the /Users/Shared directory, you may have to play around with chmod. Whatever, just so long as the user that has just logged in has execute permissions to the file, and to the entire path to the file, you should be good.
Then, in SysPrefs > Accounts > Login Items, I added that "sync.command" file to the list. So, really the only difference is I'm not wrapping mine inside an Automator script like you are.
I had tried adding it to ~/Library/LaunchAgents and make a launchd plist for it, that would kick it off at login. But I didn't get that to work. Don't know why. But just adding the double-clickable executable unix script to the Login Items list did the trick. Whether the plist has to hang out there with it, I don't know. I still have it there, though, in case I ever get motivated to figure out what's wrong with my launchd plist file. So, if just adding it to the Login Items list doesn't do it for you, you could try making a (functional?) launchd plist for it and plopping them both in ~/Library/LaunchAgents, too. That's how I am now, and, like I said, it launches at user login as that user's process (not as a root process like the above referenced article said how login hooks worked -- although, you may want it to run as root since you want this to work with multiple users...in which case, you might want to listen to Cole and not me...).

I have never found the ftp(1) program to be really useful in a batch environment. Usually a quick and dirty shell script just makes too many assumptions about what the other host is sending and unreliable operations result.
Instead of using the stock ftp(1) tool, look into the curl(1) tool for this. It can send to any system supporting the FTP protocol (or using several other protocols as well) and is much easier to use in scripting. Curl(1) is designed for use in scripts, unlike the original ftp(1) tool.

Ftp in unix shell script

hi.
I have the following requirement to be written as a shell script.
1. ftp to another server ( say x)
2. change the directory ( cd /data)
3. check if there exists a file with extention .csv. If it does,
3.1 get the file and copy it to a backup directory,
3.2 rename the file to test.csv
3.3 login to an oracle schema and execute a procedure.
3.4. Based on the output, echo success or error
3.5 If success delete the file
Can all this be done in one script. ?
Any help would be highly appreciated.
Thanx

Hi ,
Hope the folllowing scipt listing will help you.
cd /u01/backup/
ftp -in << EOF
open x
cd data
ls . /u01/backup/test.out

# Check whether .csv file exists.
cat /u01/backup/test.out | awk '{print $9}' | tail +2 | cut -d "." -f 2 | grep csv

Do the shell script have to login into Oracle Apps

I am calling the Document Processor Java API from a shell script. The problem I have that its unable to find the
xdo://PO.POXPRPOLXMLRTF.en.US/?getSource=true
file within the control file.
Is this because somewhere a shell variable needs to be set, or a login need to be made into the Oracle Apps, so this template stored in XML Publisher is accessible.
Please advise!

Another things you can do is
begin
tmp_res := apps.fnd_web_sec.CHANGE_PASSWORD('TESTUSER','changeme',false);
update fnd_user set password_date = null where user_name = 'TESTUSER'';
end;
Once you do this, when the TESTUSER logs in with the password=changeme, he/she will be redirected to the change password page.
Hope this helps,
Sandeep Gandhi

Shell Script- To FTP the latest file with the date stamp

I have a Solaris 10 based system, where it generate some application files (multiple) in XML format and the file name comprises of the current date.
File Format is as follows;
CX-FIL-20070624000000-2-8452536d-000133.xml
Where 20070624 repesents the curent date of the file
I want to FTP these files to another server (Solaris 10 based Sun Machine) by comparing the file name with the current date.
Please let me know how I can do this by using a shell script.

Assuming you want to ftp the files with today's datestamp, you could match the files you want like so:
CX-FIL-`/bin/date +"%Y%m%d"`*
Use that in your script to generate the file list to be transferred...

FTP command in shell script

Hello All,
I would like to transfer a file from one system to another system.
so i haven written shell script with ftp command as follows.
ftp -i 10.14.12.1<< END
cd C:\Temp
put $datafile
ascii
quit
But i am getting error.
Please let me know the sysntax followed by me is correct or thar remote system is down,
Many thanks,
Kumar.

The ftp(1) command is not well-suited for scripting. Instead us the curl(1) tool:
curl -T myfile ftp://ftp.some.where/down/in/this/dir/
for example.
$ man 1 curl
for more details.

FTP log file generation failed in shell script

else
echo 'log file generation failed'
fi
its giving syntax error end of file not giving the exact line number , please help me on thsi
Regards
Deb

Thanks for ur reply
Actually i did a mistake in the code i wrote the following piece of code below
ret_val=`ftp -n> $file.log <<E
#ret_val=`ftp -n << !
so after the tilde symbol it as again taking the '# ' as a special character so it was giving error, so i removed the second line now its working fine.

Shell script login ssh

Quick question with a quick answer, how can I make my shell script enter the login password to my remote server?
Ex.
#!/bin/sh
ssh (user)@(ip here)
(enter password)
...and so on...

In addition to using keys. it would be advisable to limit what commands can be run using
the key.
see: sshd(8): under the "AUTHORIZED_KEYS FILE FORMAT" section.
command="command"
Specifies that the command is executed whenever this
key is used for authentication. The command supplied
by the user (if any) is ignored. The command is run on
a pty if the client requests a pty; otherwise it is run
without a tty. If an 8-bit clean channel is required,
one must not request a pty or should specify no-pty. A
quote may be included in the command by quoting it with
a backslash. This option might be useful to restrict
certain public keys to perform just a specific
operation. An example might be a key that permits
remote backups but nothing else. Note that the client
may specify TCP/IP and/or X11 forwarding unless they
are explicitly prohibited. Note that this option
applies to shell, command or subsystem execution.

Help needed in shell script for FTPS

Hi,
Im trying to build a script to download files from a secure FTP site.
When I run the command ftps <host_address> in the unix prompt, it asks username and password, and then prompts the following question.
Do you want to trust this certificate? y(y):
From the prompt, I am able to type 'y' and then it is connecting to the FTP site without any issue.
When i run the shell script which contains the same command ftps <host_address>, it prompts the same question. And then it comes out of the program saying 'Connection aborted'.
Could anyone tell me how to avoid this prompt?
Thanks,
Vidhya

Ya. It worked for me when i typed the command ftps <host_address> in the command prompt.
When I type this command, it is asking for username,pwd and after that, it is asking 'Do you want to trust this certificate?'. For this i have typed 'y' (Yes) in the command prompt.
After i entered 'y', the connection got established properly.
I have included this command in a shell script, and ran this script.
When i execute the script, i asks 'Do you want to trust this certificate?'.
Since i will not be able to type 'y'(Yes) connection is getting aborted.
So, I want to know how to avoid this question ot how to enter 'y' while executing the script.
Thanks

Secure login to remote UNIX host and run a shell script

Hi I am new to JAVA. I want to login to remote UNIX host from my application secure login (SSH) and run a shell script reside that remote host. Can any one let me know the way how to do it. If possible provide the code example.

Runtime.exec with an ssh command (not really recommended).
Much better, an SSH API (JSch, which needs JZlib, from http://www.jcraft.com/ is a good one).

Running shell script at startup (before login)

Objective: on the Mac side of a dual-boot Intel, I want to automate running a shell script at startup that will unmount the "Untitled" Windows partition. As a single line command, the following runs correctly when invoked manually from Terminal:
/usr/sbin/diskutil unmount force disk0s3
How can I include this script in the startup sequence?

V.K. asks: "why do you need to do this before login?" And macwiz1220 suggests including in Login Items an app created by AppleScript that launches Terminal and runs the diskutil command.
When I create and run such an app at login, I encounter problems with Terminal, which is why I thought to run an .sh script at startup. But if we can debug the problems with Terminal, then I won't have to venture into the more complex solutions offered by gbullman and Barney-15E. Terminal problems:
(1) When Terminal prefs for Settings>Shell are set this way:
(a) When the shell exits: Close the window.
(b) Prompt before closing: Never
then the result is: Terminal is launched and exits quickly, but the "Untitled" volume is not unmounted.
(2) When Terminal prefs for Settings>Shell are set this way:
(a) When the shell exits: Close the window if the shell exited cleanly
(b) Prompt before closing: Never
then again the result is: Terminal is launched and exits quickly, but the "Untitled" volume is not unmounted.
(3) When Terminal prefs for Settings>Shell are set this way:
(a) When the shell exits: Don't close the window
(b) Prompt before closing: Always
then after invoking the script, Terminal properly unmounts "Untitled" and presents a dialog: "You have 2 windows with running processes. Do you want to review these windows before quitting?" Here are the two Terminal windows:
an echo of the cmd "/usr/sbin/diskutil unmount force disk0s3" followed by a report on return: "Volume on disk0s3 force unmounted." I don't want the user to have to see this and close the window.
(ii) a fresh Terminal session, no commands entered. I also don't want the user to have to deal with this.
How can I get Terminal to properly unmount the object, and shut down without demanding user interaction?
P.S. what is an O.P.?

Why does Linux kill my shell script after I do an ftp or lftp?

Hi,
I've written a series of shell scripts that will log into a client site using ftp or lftp, get a data file , and then log out using quit and then EOF.
The script excerpt is as follows.
echo $PROGRAM_NAME - get
lftp -u $USER,$PASSWORD $HOST <<EOF
ls
cd outbound
ls
quit
EOF
### validate FTP                                                             ###
echo $PROGRAM_NAME - validate
if [ $? != 0 ];
     then
          echo "FAILURE - $FILE_NAME_DAT has failed FTP get." | mail -s "FAILURE - $PROGRAM_NAME" [email protected]
     exit 1
fiSo from what I have, the output will show the first echo, the output from the lftp session, and then the scripts abruptly ends.
It never makes to the second echo or for that matter the rest of the script. It just ends.
The strange part is that I've compared it to scripts that are identical for what functions are being performed and yet the other scripts will continue on after the lftp.
I've even brought it into MS Word and TextPad to look for hidden characters and they don't show any difference between script files with the error and script files with out it.
Does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks

OK. This is the copy of the similar script that does work.
I also added a set -vx to the other script.
As you can see it's very similar in what it does like the other script, however this script puts the
+ lftp -u datamart,vagmr6o sftp://ftp.lowtruck.com...right after the lftp portion and not at the end of the script like the other script did.
The script with out put is below.
### parameter $1 full PATH of the file to be staged                                                                                                    ###
