So please_try_again, I installed links and run your script and it worked like a champ. I had neither program loaded by default and so one had to be installed. I must ask though, what name did you intend for your program? We need to let others know what you called it. Did you know I have a script file called nsf - New Script File, that takes care of a lot of this stuff for you. You just open up terminal, type nsf scriptname and your favorite text editor comes up, the header is made and when you save it, it is made executable. You are brilliant and way above the rest, but keep us more simple minded people in your thoughts here. Here is the location of nsf should you have missed it:
So, I used nsf and called your program ipcheck, for lack of a better name at the time. Copy and past the following text into your favorite text editor and save it as the file ipcheck in your home area bin folder (~/bin/ipcheck):
#!/bin/bash

$TBrowser -dump ${honeypot}_$ip | grep -q "We don't have data on this IP currently" && exec echo "Ip $ip is not blacklisted"
read -p "Ip $ip is currently blacklisted. See more info in webbrowser? [y|n]" YesNo
echo
"$YesNo" == "y" -o "$YesNo" == "Y" ] && exec $GBrowser ${honeypot}_$ip
exit 0
# End Of Script
After you save the script file, open up a terminal session and run the following command:
chmod +x ~/bin/ipcheck
Once the script file is executable, if you have not already done so, run YaST / Software Management and search on the program links, a text based WWW browser. Find and load this program. Once loaded, now you can open up a terminal session and type in the command ipcheck, with no run time options. You now know your online/internet IP address, given to you by your ISP and if you have been blacklisted. Presumably, if you are blacklisted, this would be bad.
Hi James,
I don’t know. ipcheck sounds familiar. There must be (at least) one program with that name already. I called it ‘blip’ (from ‘blacklisted ip’) for my personal use. But feel free to call it as you like. I added 2 other ‘ipcheck’ sites in case the first one doesn’t respond.

You can use it with an IP as argument to check if a Windows-using friend got a spambot and has been blacklisted.
Here’s an example with a blacklisted ip: ipcheck 92.90.21.4
OK, so we call it blip then. Copy and paste the following text in the code block into your favorite text editor and save it as the file blip in your home area bin folder (~/bin/blip)

To make the file executable run the following command:
chmod +x ~/bin/blip
In order to use blip, you need the www terminal text browser links installed. Open up YaST / Software Management and search for links. When found, install it and exit YaST. To use blip, type the following terminal command:
blip [xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx]
blip requires no command line option to provide your internet IP address and if you have been blacklisted. If you provide an internet IP address, you can check if this address has been blacklisted.
Looks like you also try to help the Linux community in the network configuration area and all the problems which may pop up
Yes framp I do try to help out with everything I can. It does seem that I am not smart enough most of the time however. If I have the right hardware to test with, I can do it, but otherwise it is often just a guess.
I have updated netinfo to version 1.20. The text display function has been updated to the same as is in mmcheck. I also added a warning concerning the data that netinfo captures about your wireless connection. Please edit out your wireless password and name before you post this information online.
To use netinfo copy and paste the following code text as the file netinfo into your home area bin folder ( ~/bin/netinfo).

Thanks for the work on netinfo and blip. I added --line-numbers -v to the iptables command that will number lines, display number of packets and bytes through each rule.

Sounds like a good thing. Can you post your patch or the whole thing or however you would like to do it and we will add it to the main script.
