Setup a proxy server for apt
echo 'Acquire::http::Proxy "http://myserver.com.com:port";' > /etc/apt/apt.conf
- Using NTLM (untested)
Acquire::http::Proxy "http://MYDOMAIN\MYNAME:MYPASS@MY.PROXY.COM:MYPORT"; OR Acquire::http::Proxy "http://MYNAME:MYPASS@MY.PROXY.COM:MYPORT";
- General Test
curl http://microsoft.com --proxy myserver.com.com:port
- Or set Proxy env
export http_proxy=myserver.com.com:port export https_proxy=myserver.com.com:port
- Unset
unset http_proxy unset https_proxy
Update using apt
- Possible commands
apt-get -y upgrade
apt-get -y upgrade; logger "APT has been applied"
unattended-upgrade --dry-run -d
Create crontab automatically
~# echo 'MAILTO=""' > mycron ~# echo "00 05 * * * apt-get update && apt-get -y upgrade | logger ~# sudo crontab mycron ~# rm mycron
Users and Groups

- Prevent login
usermod -L systemuser
Clear History at logout
echo "history -c" | sudo tee /etc/bash.bash_logout
Time
- Configure /etc/systemd/timesyncd.conf
[Time] NTP=ntp1.service.domain.com FallbackNTP=ntp2.service.domain.com RootDistanceMaxSec=5 PollIntervalMinSec=32 PollIntervalMaxSec=2048
- OR via bash
NTP1='ntp1.service.domain.com' NTP2='ntp2.service.domain.com' echo " [Time] NTP=$NTP1 FallbackNTP=$NTP2 RootDistanceMaxSec=5 PollIntervalMinSec=32 PollIntervalMaxSec=2048" >> /etc/systemd/timesyncd.conf
- Status:
~# timedatectl status
- Reload
~# systemctl restart systemd-timesyncd
World writeable files
- Find only
df --local -P | awk {'if (NR!=1) print $6'} | xargs -I '{}' find '{}' -xdev -type f -perm -0002
- Find and reset
mapfile -t ww_array < <(df --local -P | awk {'if (NR!=1) print $6'} | xargs -I '{}' find '{}' -xdev -type f -perm -0002) for i in "${my_array[@]}" do echo "Reset World Writeble File: " $i chmod o-w $i done ww_array=()
