The script expects to see the resolve.conf file, so is correctly identifying the missing file - touching the file removes the error.
There are a number of options, the simplest is probably to do;
Alternatively you could send the stderr to /dev/null
Your final option would be to modify the script and put the offendin part of the script inside a test condition - running if the resolv.conf file exists.
what's the proper syntax to redirect output, including all errors?
ls -la > direct.list makes out put file direct.list
but if i'm running a script and i want to include the errors, would i type something like:
myscript.scr 2> out_list.txt or will that get the errors only? (1 Reply)

hi
I'm new here so my question maybe be retarded or out of place:
Is there a way to suppress the "No such file or directory" error message when using the "ls" command ?
thanks (5 Replies)
I have code which at the moment only catches the command/program output if the program runs correctly, which is a small problem as I would like to capture everything from stdout inclusive of errors
FILE *fp;
fp = popen(command.c_str(), "r");
while(fgets(cbuf, 1024, fp) != NULL){

whereami.conf
whereami.conf(5) File Formats Manual whereami.conf(5)NAME
whereami.conf -- configuration file for whereami
DESCRIPTION
The whereami.conf file specifies what whereami does on leaving, remaining at or arriving at locations.
(Locations are detected by whereami according to specifications in the detect.conf file.)
Comments are lines starting with the `#' character. Leading whitespace is ignored on all lines, including comment lines.
Other lines are of the form:
-location action
The action is performed if your system was previously at this location, but is now at another location.
=location action
The action is performed if your system is now at this location.
+location action
The action is performed if your system is now at this location, but was previously at another location.
!location action
The action is performed if your system is not at this location.
HELPER SCRIPTS
In addition to the normal commands available within any shell script, whereami includes a number of helper scripts which may be useful.
setmailrelay (none | queue [smarthost] | smarthost)
Set the mail relay (i.e. smarthost) to "none" if you have a permanent connection, and can send e-mail directly to the recipient's
mailserver.
If you are not connected, set the relay to "queue" (optionally for a specific smarthost).
Or send all mail to a specific smarthost, if that is what you need in this location.
setresolver <resolv.conf stanza>
The <resolv.conf stanza> should be something like: search localhost mydomain.com nameserver 1.2.3.4 (all on one line) to specify
the domain search path and the nameserver to use.
If you have resolvconf installed, this script will interface with that to manupulate the /etc/resolv.conf file and control DNS
resolution. This is recommended.
If you are not using resolvconf, then this will directly rewrite your /etc/resolv.conf file, inserting a section similar to the
manner in which DHCP works.
setproxy (start | stop | none | <upstream_proxy>)
Use this script to reconfigure your local oops or squid proxy server to use a specific upstream proxy, no upstream
proxy, or to stop the proxy server completely.
The upstream proxy should be specified as "<name or ip> <port>", e.g.: setproxy 192.168.55.3 3128
For a local squid proxy you can optionally also provide a complete set of parameters for the "cache_peer" directive (without the
"cache_peer" name itself). See the squid.conf file for full details of this syntax. e.g.: setproxy 192.168.55.3 parent 3128
3140 login=user:password
settimezone timezone
Use this to set your timezone differently.
masqmail_route route_name
Use this to reconfigure masqmail to use a different masqmail routing.

FILES
/etc/whereami/whereami.conf
The file we are talking about in this here manpage.
/etc/whereami/whereiam.sh
The script that is built based on the information in this configuration file and then executed by whereami.
LIMITATIONS
There should be a configuration program so that the user does not have to do any script programming.
