Perl Weekly Challenge 265: Completing Word

https://blogs.perl.org/users/laurent_r/2024/04/perl-weekly-challenge-265-completing-word.html

Im working on a script to test using a jump server to reach remote devices.

I'm able to connect to the jump server using Net::SSH::Expect, however, I'm not sure how to then ssh to a remote device (network element).

Is there a way to create that ssh to the remote device inside the jump server's connection?

Phishing Attempt on PAUSE Users

https://blogs.perl.org/users/mark_lawrence/2024/04/phishing-attempt-on-pause-users.html

First things first, I am a data engineer but have little experience in Perl. I've been able to make some easy updates to scripts in the past but this one is a bit tougher.

I have been asked to update a Perl cgi web app that someone wrote ages ago that is used to view and manipulate text files. Currently it is hosted on server (X) and manipulates the files on that same server. However, we have to have backups/mirrors of the data on a dev server and another prod sever (Y). I.e., if I push the button to move the file to a different folder, it should do that on all three servers instead of just X. I added code to do this, referencing the additional servers with their UNC names, but I just get an error "No such file or directory" (which is not true). Googling has suggested that there may be an issue with permissions, but I can bring up the Y and DEV servers from a windows file explorer using the same path so I don't think that is necessarily the issue.

Example: Here we are trying to copy the file with a letter appended a given number of times. It works fine on the X server, its when trying to make it also work on the Y and DEV servers I get an error.

our $DIR_X = "\\\\serverX\\folder\\subfolder" ; our $DIR_Y = "\\\\serverY\\folder\\subfolder"; our $DIR_DEV = "\\\\serverDEV\\folder\\subfolder"; . . . }elsif ($query->param('action') eq 'split' && $query->param('fileNum') ne "") { my $fileNum $query->param('fileNum'); my $fileX=$DIR_X . "\\" . $fileNum . ".txt"; my $fileY $DIR_Y . "\\" . $fileNum . ".txt"; my $fileDEV = $DIR_DEV . "\\" . $fileNum . ".txt"; my $splitNbr = $query->param('splitNbr'); my @letters1("a".. "z"); for (my $i = 0; $i < $splitNbr; $i++) { my $FileNew_X = $DIR_X . "\\" $fileNum. $letters[$i]=.txt"; my $FileNew_Y = $DIR_Y . "\\" $fileNum. $letters[$i]=.txt"; my $FileNew_DEV = $DIR_DEV . "\\" $fileNum. $letters[$i]=.txt"; copy($fileX, $FileNew_X) or die "WARNING: copy failed: $!\n"; ---->>>>>ERROR AT NEXT LINE copy($fileY, $FileNew_Y) or die "WARNING: copy failed: $!\n"; copy($fileDEV, $FileNew_DEV) or die "WARNING: copy failed: $!\n"; }

Prior releases of the 6.x line relied on Lexical::Types, which was a major performance pessimisation over the 5.x releases.

6.0.4 relies on a simple source filter instead, which restores performance levels back to expected levels.

More benchmarks added to the test suite validate the dependency changes.

HTTP/2 Dynamic Benchmarks (PHP vs. ModPerl2), 2024 edition.

I ram these about four years ago, and the time differentials were about the same then as now. Monolithic POSIX-threaded server architectures like mp2 + mpm_event will always dominate in low-latency/scalability HTTP/2 benchmarks because they leverage zero-copy in the runtime.

Anyways, sexy terminal graphs with smag to enjoy!

Hi, im working on this perl script wherein i should get all files with filename < 900000

Ex. sample_file_802856.txt sample_file_27364692.txt sample_file_385620.txt

the script should get:

sample_file_802856.txt sample_file_385620.txt

I already have the code but it’s failing on this part coz im having a hard time getting the regex for < 900000 😆
