Another Nagios plugin. One of my hardest to write.
Note that this will require the Nagios Plugin Service to run as a Administrator Account (local system account) will
not work!
Script example:
…nagios/libexec# ./check_nrpe -H SERVER114 -t 90 -u -c get_top_mbox -a SERVER114 3 2000 4000

Install the packet:
# apt-get install samba
Check your open port:
# netstat -an |grep listen
No port 139 ?
Create the user accounts and sync the password with Samba
# adduser share
# smbpasswd -a share
# smbpasswd -a nobody
Configure the smb.conf

server string = %h server
# This will prevent nmbd to search for NetBIOS names through DNS.
dns proxy = no

Cool tools:
smbclient
The smbclient program implements a simple ftp-like client. This is
useful for accessing SMB shares on other compatible servers (such as
Windows NT). -L (just list) -U user[%passwd] -N (no passwd)
# smbclient -L //LOCALHOST
Note: with Samba 3, it dosent come installed by default, to install do:
# apt-get install smblcient
smbstatus
The smbstatus tool provides access to information about the current
connections to smbd.
smbpasswd
The smbpasswd command is a tool for changing LanMan and Windows NT
password hashes on Samba and Windows NT servers.
smbtree
The smbtree command is a text-based network neighborhood tool. Scan subnets for available share and prints a nice tree.
net
The net command is supposed to work similar to the DOS/Windows
NET.EXE command.
nmblookup
Does a lot of nice tricks, can be used to output same as nbtstat -an, like:
# nmblookup -M -R -S -A 127.27.101.164
swat
swat is a web-based interface to configuring smb.conf. Make life much easier! To install do:
# apt-get install swat
Then just open the browser to port 901 http://<IP>:901

Amazing product called The Slupr
“At this moment I can see 8 different signals. Some are closed networks but most are open and available. I can only connect to one at a time so I tend to just pick the one with the best signal. But what if I could connect to all the networks at the same time and combine their bandwith?
Yeah, that is what I need!
A big, fat access point with a large antenna and a bunch of Wi-Fi cards that automatically connect to the strongest signals it can pick up. Then it would combine all these signals into one FreeLoading Broadband Canal for me to use.”
I wish I had the time to build my own, or at least a Linux box with 3 WLAN adapters and have a dope Internet connection!
Here it is:
There’s just one problem - the price. When it eventually ships, this baby will cost you a cool 999 Euros; $1342 in the States.
What I love about it, its quite home made. No huge companies behind it, yet. But if the Ciscos, Netgear, etc… are smart they will place something
like this in the market. If it gets cheap, maybe I will buy one…
