ddrescue

ddrescue

Disk image creation

1. cd /mnt/tmp/backupsdb
2. sudo ddrescue /dev/sdb2 sdb2.img sdb2_log.txt -n -r 5 -c 64

 

sfdisk

Disk partition tool

    Backup partition table of first disk. Verify partition name

        sfdisk -d /dev/sda > sda_partition_table.txt

    Restore partition table to second disk. Verify partition name

        sfdisk /dev/sdb < sda_partition_table.txt

ufw

Frontend for iptables aiming to make configuration of a firewall easier.
More information: <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UncomplicatedFirewall>. 

Show ufw rules, along with their numbers:
        ufw status numbered

Enable ufw:
        ufw enable

Disable ufw:
        ufw disable 

Deny all incoming traffic
        ufw default deny incoming comment 'deny all incoming traffic'
Allow ssh incoming traffic
        ufw limit in ssh comment 'allow SSH connections in'
Allow outgoing traffic
        ufw allow out 53 comment 'allow DNS calls out'
        ufw allow out 123 comment 'allow NTP out'
        ufw allow out http comment 'allow HTTP traffic out'
        ufw allow out https comment 'allow HTTPS traffic out'
        ufw allow out 68 comment 'allow the DHCP client to update'
To deny any traffic on port 99, use the command below:
        ufw deny 99
Add new rule
        ufw allow from 1.2.3.4 app WWW
check added rule
        ufw status verbose
Delete rule
        ufw delete 1
start UFW
        ufw enable
status of UFW
        ufw status verbose
check logs
        grep -i ufw /var/log/syslog

Allow incoming traffic on port 5432 on this host with a comment identifying the service:
        ufw allow 5432 comment "Service"

Allow only TCP traffic from 192.168.0.4 to any address on this host, on ports 22 & 80:
        ufw allow proto tcp from 192.168.0.4 to any port 22,80

Deny traffic on port 80 on this host:
        ufw deny 80

Deny all UDP traffic to ports in range 8412:8500:
        ufw deny proto udp from any to any port 8412:8500

Delete a particular rule. The rule number can be retrieved from the `ufw status numbered` command:
        ufw delete rule_number

awk

 # To sum integers from a file or stdin, one integer per line:
printf '1\n2\n3\n' | awk '{ sum += $1} END {print sum}'

# To use a specific character as separator to sum integers from a file or stdin:
printf '1:2:3' | awk -F ":" '{print $1+$2+$3}'

# To print a multiplication table:
seq 9 | sed 'H;g' | awk -v RS='' '{for(i=1;i<=NF;i++)printf("%dx%d=%d%s", i, NR, i*NR, i==NR?"\n":"\t")}'

# To specify an output separator character:
printf '1 2 3' | awk 'BEGIN {OFS=":"}; {print $1,$2,$3}'

# To execute commands only on rows that satisfy a certain condtion
printf "george jetson\nolive oyl\nbeetle bailey" | awk '$2=="bailey"{print $0}'
#
# To execute commands only on matching rows using regex
printf "george jetson\nolive oyl\nbeetle bailey" | awk '/ley$/{print $0}'

tr

 # To replace : with a new line:
echo $PATH | tr ":" "\n"
echo $PATH | tr -t ":" \n

# To remove all occurance of "ab":
echo aabbcc | tr -d "ab"         # ouput: cc

# To complement "aa":
# ("Complement" means to keep "aa", and replace all others with "x")
echo aabbccd | tr -c "aa" x       # output: aaxxxxx (no newline)

# To complement "ab\n":
echo aabbccd | tr -c "ab\n" x    #output: aabbxxx (with newline)

# To preserve all alpha(-c). ":-[:digit:] etc" will be translated to "\n". sequeeze mode:
echo $PATH | tr -cs "[:alpha:]" "\n"

# To convert an ordered list to an unordered list:
echo "1. /usr/bin\n2. /bin" | tr -cs " /[:alpha:]\n" "+"

# To remove all NULLs:
tr < file-with-nulls -d '\000' > file-without-nulls

sed

 # To replace all occurrences of "day" with "night" and write to stdout:
sed 's/day/night/g' <file>

# To replace all occurrences of "day" with "night" within <file>:
sed -i 's/day/night/g' <file>

# To replace all occurrences of "day" with "night" on stdin:
echo 'It is daytime' | sed 's/day/night/g'

# To remove leading spaces:
sed -i -r 's/^\s+//g' <file>

# To remove empty lines and print results to stdout:
sed '/^$/d' <file>

# To replace newlines in multiple lines:
sed ':a;N;$!ba;s/\n//g' <file>

# To insert a line before a matching pattern:
sed '/Once upon a time/i\Chapter 1'

# To add a line after a matching pattern:
sed '/happily ever after/a\The end.'
