handy script on FW

[steve <steve_(_at_)_szmidt_(_dot_)_org>]

Hi,

Here's a simple script to monitor connections through your firewall.

#!/bin/sh
# /usr/local/sbin/connections
# This will display all your live connections
MyIP=`ifconfig -a|grep "255.255"|cut -f2 -d" "|cut -f1,2,3 -d"."`
SleepTime=5
clear
while [ 1 = 1 ]
do
        pfctl -sall | grep $MyIP
        #pfctl -sall | grep $MyIP|cut -f1,2,3,6,7,8,9,13 -d" "
        sleep $SleepTime
        clear
done

I've also added 80x50 support when there are many connections, to 
/etc/rc.local

# Change Virtual Screen F6 to have 80x50 lines
wsfontload -h 8 -e ibm /usr/share/misc/pcvtfonts/vt220l.808
wsconscfg -dF 5
wsconscfg -t 80x50 5
