ircbox

------

You have a nice reproducer but your testing box is somewhere in a lab behind

NAT. If you had a chance to give shell to your colleague... oh wait, you can!

Having a private IRC server, you can use this tiny little tool that can give

shells via IRC session. It's easy:

    ircbox -server irc.xxx.redhat.com:6667 -nick lzap

This is how session looks like:

    ircbox-680dd9c5 | Hey, you have been given an interactive shell on xyz.lab.redhat.com

    ircbox-680dd9c5 | This is not a tty. Do not run vi, emacs or mc and use grep wisely.

    ircbox-680dd9c5 | Don't be evil, you are being watched. Stdout and stderr are combined.

    ircbox-680dd9c5 | Type your commands now, use 'exit' to close your session.

                 me | ls /

    ircbox-680dd9c5 | bin

    ircbox-680dd9c5 | etc

    ircbox-680dd9c5 | blah

                 me | exit

    ircbox-680dd9c5 | Bye.

Warning: Never use public IRC servers and never expose boxes with sensitive

data. In other words, this is good for access to test labs within your company

or at home.

Download

--------

Linux 64bit binary with no dependencies (other than libc and libpthread) can

be downloaded *from this git repository*. Yes, I do that, because when I need

it, I don't want to install Go language to compile it from sources.

    $ wget --no-check-certificate -O /usr/local/bin/ircbox https://github.com/lzap/ircbox/raw/master/ircbox-linux64

    $ chmod +x /usr/local/bin/ircbox

Compilation

-----------

Can be done in three simple steps:

    $ go get github.com/thoj/go-ircevent

    $ go get github.com/lhcb-org/shell

    $ go build

Since Go compiles to static binaries by default, you can copy the executable

to your server and use it directly.

Known bugs

----------

It is sometimes not possible to terminate the process with Ctrl+c. I am not

cleanly shutting down goroutines.
