Wireless Connection At Logon

I'm a Newbie and I'm wanting to know if it's possible to have a automatic script to connect to my home wireless connection after it has failed to locate an ethernet connection (and before logon).

If so, what details should be in the script and where should the script be placed?

Thank you for any assistance you may provide.

No Wireless Connection

I have installed Linux Mint 17.1 Qiana Cinnamon on to a Compaq Presario R3000 and cannot use the wireless connection. I am totally lost. I can get the wired connection, but the wireless is not there. I have tried to establish the connection, but I do not understand the lingo like BSSID of my router. I have entered the MAC address but do not know how to clone it. Help!

Direct Connection Via Ethernet

Hi I am not a complete Linux newbie, but I have a challenge that is new to me.

I am wanting to be able to connect to a linux box (Raspberry Pi running Debian) via ssh directly from a single computer. I want to be able to plug in a ethernet cable from a laptop to the Raspberry Pi so that I can configure it via ssh or a webpage.

I have had a few pieces of hardware, routers, printers etc that allow this sort of connection for configuration, I just would like to know how it is done.

My question is how do I set up the /etc/interfaces file to allow the Raspberry Pi to be found by the laptop.

Once configured I would want the Raspberry Pi to obtain its IP address via DHCP when connected to a network.

Any suggestions, ideas would be appreciated.

Wireless Has Bad Connection From RT-N66R Gigabit Router

I bought an Asus Wireless Router RT-N66R yesterday, and it has successfully hooked up to everything around my home, except for my personal laptop. I run 14.04 Trusty Tsar on it. The wireless works for about 30 seconds before the computer stops recognizing it, and then I have to reconnect it again by clicking on the network name. Everything else in the house works great with it, and for the 30 or so seconds it stays connected to my laptop, my laptop works great as well. Also, when I am connected to Facebook, it tends to let me continue IMing people, even if I have no connection anywhere else. I can usually google my way to an answer, but I am really stumped on this one, please help!

Need Help To Get The Available Hosts Among Many Hosts

I have many hosts as following. But those hosts are dual operating system (Linux and Windows). I always run program background. If someone is using Linux, it is fine. But if someone is using windows or the host is offline. Then, I cannot use ssh. The way I do preiviously is first ssh one by one. And then find the hosts which are offline or windows. And write them down one by one. And then ssh to hosts except them. Let us assume the number of programs is less than the total available hosts. Can someone write a shell script to output the all available hosts to a file like "host_available"?
Here is the host file.
https://www.dropbox.com/s/vbz6w864y3...tlist.txt?dl=0
I am using ssh to connect the computers on campus. If the computer I am trying to connect is offline or using windows, the ssh will take long time, and finally it will failed. I write a shell script to generate the hostlist
Code:
#!/bin/bash
for i in `seq -w 1 28`
do
echo "c15-0330-$i.ad.mtu.edu"
# I would like to add a command here to see whether ssh c15-0330-$i.ad.mtu.edu it succeeds or not. And then output a #file which contains the all available host.
done
for i in `seq -w 1 20`
do
echo "c28-0112-$i.ad.mtu.edu"
done
for i in `seq -w 1 20`
do
echo "c28-112a-$i.ad.mtu.edu"
done

I do not how to set a certain time to see whether connection is successful or not (see the comment in the shell script).

How Do I Select With Grep And Awk Only ONE Text Content In A Script

i got a nasty isue here.
for my machine i want to make a checkup script to see to what wireless network i am connected to.

if i type iwconfig i get below output.
Code:
 iwconfig
wlan0     IEEE 802.11bgn  ESSID:"APqwerty"
          Mode:Managed  Frequency:2.447 GHz  Access Point: 72:6B:D3:36:29:44
          Bit Rate=54 Mb/s   Tx-Power=20 dBm
          Retry short limit:7   RTS thr:off   Fragment thr:off
          Encryption key:off
          Power Management:off
          Link Quality=55/70  Signal level=-55 dBm
          Rx invalid nwid:0  Rx invalid crypt:0  Rx invalid frag:0
          Tx excessive retries:7339  Invalid misc:83573   Missed beacon:0

lo        no wireless extensions.

eth0      no wireless extensions.

With a grep awk combo i manage to narow it down.
Code:
  iwconfig | grep ESSID |awk '{ /ESSID/; print $4 }'
lo        no wireless extensions.

eth0      no wireless extensions.

ESSID:"APqwerty"

why it also shows lo and eth0 ,i dont know, but ok.

i tried several combo's on grep, awk, even cut.
i only want to catch the ESSID to where i am connected to, in this case APqwerty.
i know i am missing something, but cant find out what it is, any advice ?

Counting IP Connection Number

Hi guys!

I'm writing a script for counting how many connection from each IP (source) to destination IP is established. How can I obtain that number? I mean, the result should be like

2015-06-03_14:08
Source Destination Count
127.0.0.1 127.0.0.1 3
127.0.0.1 127.0.0.4 2
10.11.82.94 10.11.77.95 7

Thank you for your attention!

p.s.: I just need to know how to calculate count number, I've already gain the table from netstat.

How To Run A "sudo" Script Without Password

Hi all,
I have a script where every line needs to be prefixed with sudo.
I was advised to run it as $ sudo /path/to/file.sh

This script needs to be scheduled in crontab to run. If I run it as above, will I be prompted for a password?
Also, one of the lines in the script is;
scp -r root@rem_server:/source/dir /local/dir
Does that mean I will have to provide two passwords: one for sudo and one for root?

Thanks,
