SFTP Received Message Too Long

by on May.28, 2013, under Linux, MAC

“Received message too long” can be caused by using /sbin/nologin as the users shell for an account that is being accessed via SFTP. SFTP generates the error when it receives unexpected output during the login.

lily:~ dervish$ grep user /etc/passwd
user:x:101347:101347:User SFTP Account:/var/SFTP/user:/sbin/nologin

lily:~ dervish$ sftp user@sftp.server.com
user@sftp.server.com's password:
Received message too long 1416128883

touch /etc/nologin.txt

lily:~ dervish$ sftp user@sftp.server.com
user@sftp.server.com's password:
Connection closed

lily:~ dervish$ /sbin/nologin

reload.sh: Cron Script to Reshuffle SHOUTcast Playlist

by on Nov.16, 2012, under Linux, Scripts



#!/bin/sh
# Perform kill -USR1 on running sc_trans
# Use in nightly cron to reshuffle "random" playlist
# 20121116 - Jamey Hopkins
 
# Note: sc_trans accepts the following signals:
# HUP - flush logfiles (close and reopen) -- will make console logging stop
# WINCH - jump to next song
# USR1 - reload playlist off disk (will not interrupt current playing stream)
# USR2 - toggle shuffle on/off
# TERM - normal sc_trans shutdown (clean)
 
ID=`ps -ef | grep sc_trans | grep -v grep |awk '{ print $2 }'`
 
if [ "$ID" ]
then
  echo "Reloading playlist for sc_trans at $ID"
  kill -USR1 $ID
else
  echo "Did not find a running sc_trans"
fi
