18 echo "E: $ME: not a regular file: $EXEC" >&2
21 if [ ! -x $EXEC ]; then
22 echo "E: $ME: not an executable: $EXEC" >&2
27 echo "E: $ME: unsupported command: $CMD" >&2
38 Instead of invoking $EXEC directly, $ME will run a number of checks
39 to guard against accidental shutdowns/reboots.
41 Some of the checks available are:
42 - Prompt the user for the machine's if the current shell is a child
43 of an SSH connection (or --pretend-ssh) has been given on the
44 command line, if the shell is connected to an interactive
45 terminal, and the actual command to execute is does not involve
46 --help or is \`shutdown -c'.
48 $ME will always interpose the prompt if the environment variable
49 ALWAYS_MOLLY is set to '1'. This variable may be set in the file
52 - Print out a warning message with information about this host
53 before the action takes place. You can use:
54 /etc/molly-guard.<Action>.message
55 To print out a message specific to the command you're trying to
57 /etc/molly-guard.message
58 For a general warning message.
60 Only if the user satisfies all the checks will $ME take action.
61 Specifying --molly-guard-do-nothing as argument to the command will
62 make $ME echo the command it would execute rather than actually executing
65 The actual command's help output follows:
75 (*-molly-guard-do-nothing) DO_NOTHING=1;;
78 eval $EXEC --help 2>&1
81 (*-pretend-ssh) CHECK_ARGS="${CHECK_ARGS:+$CHECK_ARGS }--arg --pretend-ssh";;
82 *) ARGS="${ARGS:+$ARGS }$arg";;
88 if [ $DO_NOTHING -eq 1 ]; then
89 echo "$ME: would run: $EXEC $ARGS"
92 eval exec $EXEC "$ARGS"
96 if [ $DO_NOTHING -eq 1 ]; then
97 echo "I: demo mode; $ME will not do anything due to --molly-guard-do-nothing."
100 # pass through certain commands
103 echo "I: executing $CMD $ARGS regardless of check results."
108 run-parts --exit-on-error --arg $CMD $CHECK_ARGS /usr/share/molly-guard/checks.d
110 # run-parts won't return to us if there are failures, but I'm paranoid.
