Using "/usr/bin/open" Remotely

Hi,
I'm wondering if it's possible to execute /usr/bin/open remotely over an ssh connection without executing it as root with sudo. I've added the necessary configuration in the sudoers file that should have let me execute this, however, it still won't work for some reason.
Any suggestions or ideas would be appreciated.

Hi Bill,
   I recall when you first brought this up but I don't recall your mentioning that a window can be displayed over the loginwindow. That's pretty stupid and if I saw it, I'm not sure if I would laugh or cry. Is that Terminal window opened as root? In the past, the "open" command ignored effective UIDs and would open the application as the user corresponding to the real UID of the parent process. I would be surprised to hear that Apple has changed that. (LC_LOCALE="state of denial")
   On the other hand, doing that would be the moral equivalent of putting all users in the sudoers file with NOPASSWD for ALL commands. It wouldn't be easy for me to muster sympathy for anyone so careless with their root privileges.
Andy,
   That the WindowServer is always running hardly surprises me. It would really have to be in the global namespace; even a loginwindow is a window. The same is true of other flavors of UNIX; the XServer is virtually always running. However considering Bill's example, I have to say that an XServer is far more discriminating in choosing which requests to honor. In the words of James Tiberius Kirk, "You may ask ..."
   Given the poor reputation for security earned by XWindows, being compared unfavorably with it doesn't bode well for the future of Macs in multiuser environments. Granted, the original implementation of Fast User Switching was little more than a novelty — hardly ready for prime time. However, I had far higher hopes for Tiger. You may ask ...

Where are the settings for the "open" command, located at /usr/bin/open?

I have Windows XP installed on a partition on my Macbook and I use Parallels to access some of the Windows applications.
When I am in Mac OS X, and I don't even have a virtual machine running, if I enter the following command in the terminal, I get some really strange behavior:
/usr/bin/open -a firefox http://localhost/~myname/somewebpage.html
The open command will launch firefox within Mac OS X and display the page, but, it WILL ALSO TRY TO LAUNCH FIREFOX VIA PARALLELS. So, it starts a Parallels session and tries to launch Firefox. I see the Firefox icon in my dock twice, once normally, and once with the Parallels version of the Firefox icon. But, I cannot view the Parallels instance of Firefox.
In order to debug this, I removed Firefox from Mac OS X (deleted Firefox.app from my applications folder) and I un-installed it from the windows partition using Add/Remove programs in windows.
Now, running the open command as stated above launches Safari in Mac OS X and it still launches parrallels.
Where is the list of application associations that the "open" command uses? I assume there is some incorrect associate that is causing this but, I have no idea how to find it.
Thanks in advance for any advice you can give.

Thank you for your reply.
I actually checked out the man page for "open" but, I was unable to find LaunchServices in the finder. I was hoping there would be some sort of manifest, or application map, within LaunchServices that might be the source of my problem.
Regarding using the full path: Good suggestion. That will clear it up when I use the command line, or if I were writing my own app, etc...unfortunately, I became aware of this problem because Netbeans is using the command in the abbreviated form I posted above (to launch web applications I am debugging), and I can't edit it.
I removed Firefox from both Windows and Mac OS X on my machine, and tested the Netbeans functionality, it launched my application in Safari with no errors. I reinstalled Firefox on my Mac OS X partition and selected it in Netbeans preferences as the browser to use when debugging an app. When I tried to debug an application in Netbeans again, I got the same behavior...parallels launched. Ugh.
There was a folder, on the Windows side of things, called something like Parallels\Shared Applications. It had a shortcut to Firefox in it but, I removed that before doing my testing. I was hoping there would be something similar on the Mac OS X side but, I haven't been able to find anything.
Thank you both for your help. I think I might need to visit the Parallels forums for this one.

Using /usr/bin/mail

I have some Perl scripts in which I would like to utilize /usr/bin/mail to send e-mail. I've tried using /usr/bin/mail from the command line to send a test message to my yahoo address, and it fails. I imagine this is pretty basic stuff for a Unix sysadmin, but all I've ever been is a user. What do I need to do to use /usr/bin/mail to send mail?
Thanks,
Brad

the main thing you need is an open port 25. If it's open, then command line mail should work out of the box with no further preparation. it works on my work computer for example and I can send mail to my yahoo address from it.
However, most internet providers block port 25. I suspect that's the case for you. then you need to set up mail to work with some external smtp server. I've never done it but it should be possible. see these links

How to use /usr/bin/gcc with Accelerate?

Hi,
After upgrading Mac to OSX10.9, C compiler has been changed to LLVM.
Using gcc4.9(http://hpc.sourceforge.net), /usr/local/bin/gcc -framework Accelerate xxx.c works well.
Using /usr/bin/gcc, how to compile it with Accelerate?

Put the line, #include <Accelerate/Accelerate.h>, in your program,
cc -framework Accelerate xxx.c

Using /usr/bin/security for password access confused by repeat account name

One should be able to lookup a password from the CLI with
`security find-generic-password -a test -g`
This formulation seems to assume that you use 'test' as a unique account name.
If you use a common login name across multiple generic password items,
then this formulation returns the first match, not an array or
plist of /all the matches/.
That is:
`security find-generic-password -a test`
returns the first entry of 'test' as an account name, not an indexed plist, as I would expect.
One must, it seems have to add a comment field per entry to be able to select
the appropriate generic password
`security find-generic-password -j server1 -g`
I've read through the man page a few times, but haven't been able to find a
way to iterate / specify / select based on account name that's shared across
entries.
Anyone else tried this out?

Hi
I believe you can set an open firmware password to prevent someone booting from the OS X disc:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106482
At the end of the day though, if someone has physical access to your computer and in particular your hard drive, they could probably access your information anyway by simply removing the hard drive and mounting it in another computer.

/usr/bin/mail buggy or smtp server picky?

I want to use mail to send email quickly from my terminal and decided to use msmtp as my smtp client to keep things light and straightforward.
However, when I use /usr/bin/mail to send an email to [email protected], my smtp server (mail.messagingengine.com if you are interested) queues the email that was delivered by my /usr/bin/msmtp client fine (I get an OK for queue message), but after a couple of hours I get an NDR (Non Delivery Report) saying that my message couldn't be sent and will be retried until ultimately I get an NDR that my message couldn't be delivered.
After some debugging, I realized that the reason the smtp server was having trouble is that my message didn't contain the From: header. Since the from address is already specified in the envelope upon SMTP-initiation, it seemed to me illogical that the smtp server couldn't just use that email.
So I opened a ticket with those guys over at fastmail.fm, and they told me that the problem was not with the SMTP server, but with the mail client, which creates "invalid" messages (i.e. not sending the From: header). Since I trust my provider to know his stuff, here's my question:
How can I tell /usr/bin/mail to insert a specific From: header?
Thanks!

Hello fukawi2,
my ~/.mailrc contains one line:
set sendmail=/usr/bin/msmtp
Here's what happens when write an email using /usr/bin/mail from the mailx 8.1.1-7 package:
[x@eee ~]$ mail [email protected]
Subject: hello
Another test
EOT
Here's how /usr/bin/mail passes my email to msmtp:
/usr/bin/msmtp -i [email protected]
To: [email protected]
Subject: hello
Another test
Here's what my msmtp config looks like:
#~/.msmtp
account fastmail
from "[email protected]"
host mail.messagingengine.com
auth on
tls on
tls_certcheck off
user [email protected]
password "*"
logfile ~/msmtp.log
Here's what the msmtp log shows when I send the email:
nov 18 00:28:41 host=mail.messagingengine.com tls=on auth=on user=[email protected] from=[email protected] recipients=[email protected] mailsize=41 smtpstatus=250 smtpmsg='250 2.0.0 Ok: queued as C3A00A7B7' exitcode=EX_OK
I will send the NDR from the SMTP server when it arrives (takes a couple of hours) if you'd like to inspect it.
Maybe ssmtp has a way to insert a From: header automatically, I haven't taken a look at it. Maybe even msmtp has a way to do that, even though I haven't found that option in the man pages.
What I am trying to say is, if the /usr/bin/mail program cannot be configured to create a valid rfc-compliant email, then using an intermediary mail transport agent like ssmtp would only be a workaround but not a permanent fix. Hence my suggestion to replace mailx with a compliant, working package in the arch core install.
Any ideas on how to proceed from here?

Resolving Gambit-C and Ghostscript /usr/bin/gsc conflict

Ghostscript and Gambit Scheme Compiler both want to use /usr/bin/gsc. I already have Gambit Scheme. How can I resolve this conflict to have a working Ghostscript as well (right now the pacman -S ghostscript terminates with an error about /usr/bin/gsc being present in the system)?
Will installing into the prefix (/usr/local/bin) be a smart idea? That way, the gsc from the earlier PATH entry will respond to 'which gsc'. This will break things for the utilities that require the _other_ gsc.
P.S. Will I be justified in reporting this as a bug?

/usr/bin/diff problem

Hi,
we just migrated one of our apps from Solaris 8 to Solaris 10.
One issue we noticed is the following:
Once a day an RCS-controlled ASCII text configuration database is being updated. This file has a size of about 260 MB.
As per normal RCS procedure, before the new file is checked in, it's being compared to the old version using /usr/bin/diff.
On the old Server (Netra T4, Solaris 8) the diff was running for about 15 Minutes.
On the new Server (V245, Solaris 10) the diff now takes 2 1/2 hours !!
I haven't found an obvious cause for this, so I was thinking about using dtrace to find out why the diff on the new server is taking that long.
On the other side, I don't have much experience with dtrace yet....
I would very much appreciate any help you could offer to help me find the problem.
thanks

Tcl/tk: #!/usr/bin/wish in a script file does not start wish

When executing a tcl/tk script file, 'wish' does not execute the tcl/tk commands in the file.
Instead I get error messages: "command not found" from tcsh for every tcl/tk command in the file. I use tcsh as login shell.
The first line in the script file is: #!/usr/bin/wish. The program is at this place.
Starting 'wish' with my tcl/tk file as argument works fine.
Starting the wish.app and "sourcing" the script file works fine.
jo

Thanks for the help so far.
Using
/usr/bin/wish led.tk
works.
using
./led.tk
does not even start wish. I checked with Activity Monitor.
Below are my "wishes", the first one is actually a link to wish4.8.
ls /usr/bin/wi*
wish
wish8.4
wish8.4-X11
wish8.4.7
wish8.5
But I am one step closer.
Starting X11.app and starting my script in an xterm and using
'#!/usr/bin/wish8.4-X11'
in the script works.
Using
#!/usr/bin/wish8.4
has still the same symptoms. For me it looks like a bug. I wonder if anybody can verify on MacOS 10.4.3

[Solved] How to save a file in /usr/bin/local using gedit as an admin?

In my attempt to run these two programs:
https://github.com/kerchen/export_gr2evernote
https://github.com/spiermar/bookmarks2evernote
I noticed they assumed the default python is python 2. I have python 3.3.1 and 2.6.8. I'm following the instructions at: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Py … ld_scripts
Created a file with this:
#!/bin/bash
script=`readlink -f -- "$1"`
case "$script" in
/home/Dropbox/export_gr2evernote-master1/*|/home/Dropbox/bookmarks2evernote2/*)
exec python2 "$@"
esac
exec python3 "$@"
I then, tried to save it as p2 under /usr/local/bin/ where the only thing that's there is meteor, node, and npm, and it throws me an error saying I don't have enough permissions.
How do I save p2 as an admin in /usr/bin/local using gedit?
I've searched on the forums 'create a file in /usr/' and I haven't found anything. Can someone please help me?

I did everything exactly like the wiki said, what seems to be the problem?
OK. Looking at the 2 scripts you quoted, neither one is using a shbang line to set a python version to call. Without that, the python intercept doesn't even come into play. The problem that I see is the way you are starting it:
sudo nano /usr/local/bin/python
Is root really necessary for these if they are in your /home/<user>/Dropbox/ directory. And it appears that you are assuming python3 when you start them that way. If you are going to use that method and they are indeed python2 scripts, then change your command to this:
#python evernote2enex.py -m 10
You might try it as your normal user too in case root isn't really required.
I tested out the first ten with:
#python2 export2enex.py -m 10
it worked!
then proceded with
#python2 export2enex.py GStarred -n exported.enex
The script is fully functional. Thanks man!
Actually, you're not even using the script when starting your python scripts that way. You are explicitly calling either python3 (python) or python2 (python2) to run the indicated python script and not even touching the work around /usr/local/bin/python script. If your python script started with a line like either :
#!/usr/bin/env python
or:
#!/usr/bin/python
And was executable, such that you called it by it's name, i.e. "someprogram.py", then the python script in /usr/local/bin/ would take precedence and effectively intercept the python call and choose the appropriate version of python as long as the path to the directory where "someprogram.py" resides is specified in that /usr/local/bin/python script.

My iphoto library was opened remotely on a computer using a newer operating system. Now it won't open on mine!

My iphoto library was opened remotely via sharing on a computer using a newer (10.7) operating system. Now it won't open on mine (10.6). It says it needs a newwer version of iphoto, and I want this computer to stay at 10.6 for compatability with other programs. How can I access my photos?

When the library was opened you were warned this would happen.
You can restore your Library from your back up.
You can try revert the Library to the earlier version using iPhoto Library Manager
Or you upgrade to the same version.
