Hi there,

I 've created some scrips which I want to wrap them so that the client won't be able to see any of the code.

I 've tried to use "shc" compiler but unfortunately when the script is running and I do "ps -ef" I can see all the code there.

Is there a way that I can overcome this?


Thanks

Are you looking for shell script obfuscator ?

I am looking for a tool which will help me to conceal the contents of my script

Thanks for your reply.

You shouldn't be seeing the script with ps but you will see command line arguments and environment variables as they are used.

Alas, for "sh" to execute your script it needs to be able to read it.

However you could set up your own shell where all the scripts are owned by some obscure user, and the shell is a set-uid process that flips to that user. But then that user would not have the same rights as the current user.

But you would still need little wrappers...
