From the Linux command line, give a count of the number of active processes per user, sorted in descending order by count. #Linux #DFIR #CommandLine #Trivia

We got several answers where people looked for a string in the file path rather than the file content. Props to JakubUrbanec for chiming in with: "find /path/to/files -iname "＊string＊"
Interestingly, the "-a" and"-l" options are redundant here. "-a" normally gives you matching strings from non-ASCII files. But since we're only printing file names ("-l"), it doesn't matter.

Honorable mention to 🐘PhilHagen@infosec.exchange for improving the answer with "rail grep": "grep -rail string /path/to/files". That will get you case-insensitive matching.

Props to 🐘feld@bikeshed.party for the first correct answer to yesterday's #Linux #DFIR #CommandLine #Trivia: "grep -rl string /path/to/files"

From the Linux command-line you want to search a directory structure of files and return the paths to all files that contain a particular string. What command do you use? (Because we all need daily #Linux #DFIR #CommandLine #Trivia)

Beginning an experiment to use Mastodon as my primary posting platform. Mastodon content will be mirrored to Twitter for now. Just a reminder that I am 🐘hal_pomeranz@infosec.exchange

I'm likely to cut over to Mastodon as my primary posting platform, though I'll probably mirror content to Twitter for a while.
The hacker / infosec Mastodon servers have really reached critical mass to contain useful community and information. If you haven't tried it out yet, I really recommend it. There's enough intel and news to be viable at this point.

This thread has some really useful details on some of the less obvious consequences of how this all works
In short, if you are hoping for a drop-in, like-for-like replacement that works just like Twitter, it's not that, despite the superficial similarity. Most important, the way posts propagate, and who may be able to find them, is totally different to what twitter users are used to.

As a wise colleague once said to me:
"Let's try to get out of the business of having to wear our underpants outside our outfits all the time".
Tired people make mistakes
Mistakes cause problems
Problems demand heroes
Heroism wears people out
Rinse'n'repeat - it won't work.

I was failing Math in high-school. My teacher asked me what I wanted to do when I grew up and I said Software Engineering.
She snarked and said good luck.. You're gonna need math.
She was right, I did, but I also needed a better teacher. Be resourceful, find good ppl.

Anybody else using moa.party or another crossposting service for Mastodon/Twitter? Recommendations?

I’ve been doing a little technical advisory work for @SpyderbatInc and am a fan of their product. They have a free tier which allows you to try them out on up to 5 nodes.
