Question Unknown problem-beginner
Hi, I have a problem running my script.Here it is:
Code:
num1="1"
num2="2"
num3="3"
num4="4"
num5="5"
num6="6"
num7="7"
echo
echo "Type what you wanna do..."
echo "1= Start interface   2= Stop interface   3= See your mac"
echo "4= Change your mac   5= Hack WEP......   6= Hack WPA...."
echo "IF YOU RUN FIRST TIME --> 7= Say which is your interface"
read number
if [ "$number" == "$num1" ] then

	int=`cat /home/alex/Documents/hakforothers/${int}`
airmon-ng start $int
elif [ "$number" == "$num2" ] then
 
	int=`cat /home/alex/Documents/hakforothers/${int}`
airmon-ng stop $int
elif [ "$number" == "$num3" ] then

	int=`cat /home/alex/Documents/hakforothers/${int}`
macchanger -s $int
elif [ "$number" == "$num4" ] then
 
	int=`cat /home/alex/Documents/hakforothers/${int}`
macchanger -m 00:11:22:33:44:55 $int
elif [ "$number" == "$num5" ] then
exit
elif [ "$number" == "$num6" ] then
exit
elif [ "$number" == "$num7" ] then
echo $int > /home/alex/Documents/hakforothers/${int}
						fi
					fi
				fi
			fi
		fi
	fi
fi

Well, what it actually does? Hmm... It supposed to do the following:
When it was first time run, the user would push 7 in order to give his interface (in the program $int). This interface would be written in a file in /home/alex/Documents/hakforothers/.Then, when the user typed an other number, the other programs should call this file and use it.(the 5 and 6 are unavailable for now)
Unfortunately, it says
Code:
Type what you wanna do...
1= Start interface   2= Stop interface   3= See your mac
4= Change your mac   5= Hack WEP......   6= Hack WPA....
IF YOU RUN FIRST TIME --> 7= Say which is your interface
7
./hakfile: line 18: syntax error near unexpected token `elif'
./hakfile: line 18: `elif [ "$number" == "$num2" ] then'

Missing semi-colon.

And where you declare $int variable ?

On my opinion you should opt for a case/esac statement like:

Code:
#!/bin/sh
while :;do echo "
Type what you wanna do...
1= Start interface   2= Stop interface   3= See your mac
4= Change your mac   5= Hack WEP......   6= Hack WPA....
IF YOU RUN FIRST TIME --> 7= Say which is your interface"
read number
        case $number in
                1)
                        int=`cat /home/alex/Documents/hakforothers/${int}`
                        airmon-ng start $int;;
                2)
                        int=`cat /home/alex/Documents/hakforothers/${int}`
                        airmon-ng stop $int;;
                3)
                        int=`cat /home/alex/Documents/hakforothers/${int}`
                        macchanger -s $int;;
                4)
                        int=`cat /home/alex/Documents/hakforothers/${int}`
                        macchanger -m 00:11:22:33:44:55 $int;;
                5|6)
                        exit;;
                7)
                        echo $int > /home/alex/Documents/hakforothers/${int};;

                *)
                        echo "[$number] wrong option, try again !";;
        esac
done

For basic string comparison we should replace:
Quote:
if [ "$number" == "$num1" ] then
with

Quote:
if [ "$number" = "$num1" ]
then
# Do something
else
# Do something else
fi
There is no reason to use "==" in this context.
