I want to execute metasploit by two pipes to communicate with it, but I have troubles with that communication. When I run my program, I get this error: "stty: standard input: Inappropriate ioctl for device" and I don't receive the metasploit promt.
just select an exploit.
This is my code:
I'm very worried. I have an assignment that is due in 3 weeks, and also tute exercises which I can't seem to understand and work out.
Okay, the question:

I'm having difficulty understanding the purposes of using dup/dup2 when involving forks.
for example, if we call fork() once, that is, we are creating a child process. In what cases would we need to use dup or dup2 to duplicate the file descriptors for standard output and standard error? What... (1 Reply)
Hi,
i have in one program such a pice of code
................
static int old_stderr_handle = -1;
static int old_stdout_handle = -1;
log_handle = open(log_file_name,O_CREAT|O_RDWR,932);
old_stderr_handle = dup(STDERR_FILENO);
if (dup2(log_handle,STDERR_FILENO) < 0)

I used the above to redirect all the cout statements to sample.DAT. process is redirecting the output and I had two questions

Hi all,I'm reading <Advanced programming in the UNIX environment>,that book asked the reader to implement a function which has same functions with dup2 without calling fcntl.Could anyone give me a tip?Any help will be appreciated.:) (8 Replies)
Hello, I'm stuck and this is a matter which I need to resolve quite fast (but I couldn't post in the "Emergency" section); the problem is this :

Hi, I will try to keep my post as compressed as my title was.
I am writing on pseudo code on a recursive function that I want to read from the one-above function-run and then give the result to the function-run down below until a stop is triggered. Example:

is it possible to duplicate file descriptors(opened by a different process) with the help of dup or dup2. the two process do not share parent child relationship as well. (2 Replies)
What this code should do is: there are parent.cpp and child.cpp. Parent will send whatever is in the buffer to child and child will send back whatever received to parent. I do not know what I am doing wrong. I am confused what is missing in the parent and what else I should include into the child.... (1 Reply)

pipe2
PIPE(2) Linux Programmer's Manual PIPE(2)NAME
pipe, pipe2 - create pipe
SYNOPSIS
#include <unistd.h>
int pipe(int pipefd[2]);
#define _GNU_SOURCE /* See feature_test_macros(7) */
#include <unistd.h>
int pipe2(int pipefd[2], int flags);
DESCRIPTION
pipe() creates a pipe, a unidirectional data channel that can be used for interprocess communication. The array pipefd is used to return
two file descriptors referring to the ends of the pipe. pipefd[0] refers to the read end of the pipe. pipefd[1] refers to the write end
of the pipe. Data written to the write end of the pipe is buffered by the kernel until it is read from the read end of the pipe. For fur-
ther details, see pipe(7).
If flags is 0, then pipe2() is the same as pipe(). The following values can be bitwise ORed in flags to obtain different behavior:
O_NONBLOCK Set the O_NONBLOCK file status flag on the two new open file descriptions. Using this flag saves extra calls to fcntl(2) to
achieve the same result.
O_CLOEXEC Set the close-on-exec (FD_CLOEXEC) flag on the two new file descriptors. See the description of the same flag in open(2) for
reasons why this may be useful.
RETURN VALUE
On success, zero is returned. On error, -1 is returned, and errno is set appropriately.
ERRORS
EFAULT pipefd is not valid.
EINVAL (pipe2()) Invalid value in flags.
EMFILE Too many file descriptors are in use by the process.
ENFILE The system limit on the total number of open files has been reached.
VERSIONS
pipe2() was added to Linux in version 2.6.27; glibc support is available starting with version 2.9.
CONFORMING TO
pipe(): POSIX.1-2001.
pipe2() is Linux-specific.
EXAMPLE
The following program creates a pipe, and then fork(2)s to create a child process; the child inherits a duplicate set of file descriptors
that refer to the same pipe. After the fork(2), each process closes the descriptors that it doesn't need for the pipe (see pipe(7)). The
parent then writes the string contained in the program's command-line argument to the pipe, and the child reads this string a byte at a
time from the pipe and echoes it on standard output.
#include <sys/wait.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <string.h>
int
main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
int pipefd[2];
pid_t cpid;
char buf;
if (argc != 2) {
fprintf(stderr, "Usage: %s <string>
", argv[0]);
exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
}
if (pipe(pipefd) == -1) {
perror("pipe");
exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
}
cpid = fork();
if (cpid == -1) {
perror("fork");
exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
}
if (cpid == 0) { /* Child reads from pipe */
close(pipefd[1]); /* Close unused write end */
while (read(pipefd[0], &buf, 1) > 0)
write(STDOUT_FILENO, &buf, 1);
write(STDOUT_FILENO, "
", 1);
close(pipefd[0]);
_exit(EXIT_SUCCESS);
} else { /* Parent writes argv[1] to pipe */
close(pipefd[0]); /* Close unused read end */
write(pipefd[1], argv[1], strlen(argv[1]));
close(pipefd[1]); /* Reader will see EOF */
wait(NULL); /* Wait for child */
exit(EXIT_SUCCESS);
}
}
