I have put together 2 more .dsl extensions..Nessus remote security scanner.
< http://www.creativesound.com/ares/ >
" " " nessus.dsl
" " " nessus.dsl.lsm
" " " nessus.dsl.md5.txt
A small network tool, combine that with the nmap.dsl for
a useful network scanning package for DSL... only 900k for both
Edna MP3 server
< http://www.creativesound.com/ares/ >
" " " edna.dsl
" " " edna.dsl.lsm
" " " edna.dsl.md5.txt
I got the idea for making the Edna MP3 server after seeing roberts
post up the python package.. Edna uses python to run.
The apt-get python I used is somewhat different from roberts, so
for ease in use, I included the python files with this .dsl
If someone can post a solution to using roberts python install with the
Edna server, I will rewrite the Edna server without including the python files.
To use, after installing the edna.dsl, run by clicking on edna from mydsl menu.
To check, goto 127.0.0.1:8080 from any browser. You should see the
webpage, along with a short mp3 file in the 'jukebox' folder to test with.
click on the mp3, and set your "open with" to use /usr/bin/xmms.
Add mp3's to your server by placing them in /www/mp3
Any other computers in your network should be able to use it by
browsing to " the ip address of your computer running edna:8080"
Edit /usr/share/edna/edna.conf and change binding ip to serve
mp3's OUTSIDE your network ( careful )
Enjoy
I'd like to get some feedback BEFORE John posts them up in the
repository, especially with the Python issue and Edna,

I have added a mydsl-menu choice to the nessus package,as per a suggestion from John.
Just an option for starting nessus without using the terminal.
If anyone wants a desktop icon, let me know.

I have updated the edna server to startup without needing to be root user ...After installing, simply click on the mydsl-menu link, or,
in a terminal, type 'ednastart' ..
Installs fine from the mydsl button in emelfm..
Again, if a desktop icon is needed, let me know.
( there are so many desktop icons now, the desktop is getting hard to find
)73

84 views, over 200MB downloaded from my server, and ....No replies???
Are these .dsl files not working correctly?
Any request for improvements?
Obviously, there's some interests in these programs ...

I've no use for Edna - but I've downloaded nessus.Haven't tried it yet, I'll tell you tomorrow when I get back.

Edna Rocks!! I just set it up on a junker pc in the lab down the hall and we are sharing the jukebox on our test subnet!
Thanks for setting this one up!

Having a bit of trouble with nessus though.. I tried to login with user & pass 'damnsmall' but had no luck. Am I missing something?
Posted by ke4nt1 on June 29 2004,15:50
You may need to set the password up yourself..1.) 'sudo su' to root
2.) 'passwd damnsmall'
3.) follow prompts, settng password to whatever you choose.
4.) enjoy

Quite simple: edna uses a startup script, /usr/bin/ednastart
Add the proper pathing like this:
export PYTHONPATH="/opt/python/bin"
export PATH="$PATH:PYTHONPATH"
So when you are done it should look like this:
#!/bin/sh
# This is a script to start the Edna MP3 server
#
export PYTHONPATH=/opt/python/bin
export PATH="$PATH:$PYTHONPATH"
cd /usr/share/edna
python edna.py

You make it look so simple...SO many cups o' java I have had looking over these files..
Trying to find what to EDIT, or REPLACE,
and not knowing what to ADD....
Looking at the solution you posted makes so much sense.
I will add this in some fashion, either to a new script file or
as an addition to an existing one, and include this with a
rebuild of Edna without the included python...
the 'ednastart' script was my brainfart, but it worked...
I'd like to try to put edna in /opt as well..
Now that I can point it properly, I should have success.
Thanks,
ke4nt

Putting it in /opt might be a good idea. It is generally not good form to be adding directories off of /The www directory is currently off /

I echo melange8272 in what they said. The Edna package rocks (if that is the genre you have in the server:) ) my 2 computer subnet. The package was easy to get going and start listening to on the windows maching (i don't use it much so no music).One trick for those with massive collections but dont want to hack the config files. If you do the following you can quickly get to the big collection fast.
| Code Sample |
| sudo mc <navigate one pane to the music directory folder, for example /mnt/hda2/Music is the folder with the music, then get to /mnt/hda2 and highlight the Music folder.> <navigate the other side of MC to /www and delete the mp3 folder> <tab back to the other pane and hilight the Music directory> do 'ctrl+x' then hit 's' to create a syslink. name it mp3 |
now edna should have all of those wonderful _legal_
mp3s you have.

so, why isn't edna in the dsl repository? I'd like to use this too.

My bad....I wanted to re-release it without the entire version of Python embedded within it...
roberts has already put together a Python.dsl, and I wanted to link to it instead...
Timewise, I haven't gotten back into it...
I still have it here...
roberts gave me some good tips for doing this...
It's working so good here.. It's just a FAT app..
I gotta say...A wireless mp3 server is "Most Excellent" !
( now, I need to get wireless in my Jeep's computer for serving/downloading to that hard drive. )
I suppose I could ssh into that computer, and have it request
files from monkey , or stream from Edna or even SCP files to the Jeep.
Maybe a wireless link to the microFM transmitter as well ...
(I currently use DSL to feed mp3's from XMMS to a uW Xmitter)
I could cut my feedline down to about 3 feet !
I could ssh into the laptop in the attic, request a playlist from the edna server, and stream from Edna to the transmitter..
Got the gears turning now...
Don't get me started on Sound Stuff... I eat it 3 times a day..
