How to put Cluster map Visitors in your WordPress

In WordPress you can not modify your HTML code unless you are registered as paid member. So, if you want to put and additional link with a picture on it, it will be difficult.

But with a bit trick, you can do that.

For example, I want to put cluster map visitor in my WordPress. To do that, basically you need 2 address.

• Your link address

• Your image address

Note:

• I Assume that you are familiar with basic WordPress menu

• Familiar with HTML code

Step 1. Copy your Cluster map Link.

<a href=”http://www3.clustrmaps.com/counter/maps.php?url=http:/taufanlubis.wordpress.com&#8221; id=”clustrMapsLink”><img src=”http://www3.clustrmaps.com/counter/index2.php?url=http:/taufanlubis.wordpress.com&#8221; style=”border: 0pt none ” alt=”Locations of visitors to this page” /></a>

I took this link from Cluster map website.

As you can see,

• My link address is: http://www3.clustrmaps.com/counter/maps.php?url=http:/taufanlubis.wordpress.com

• My image address is: http://www3.clustrmaps.com/counter/index2.php?url=http:/taufanlubis.wordpress.com

Step 2. Create a new Blog roll category in your WordPress

If you want to put your link in a different blog roll, you have to create a new category.

Step 3. Create a new Blog roll

• Click Blog roll Tab and choose Manage Blogroll tab.

• In Name field, fill: clustermap (any name)

• In Address field, fill: your clustermap link address (example: http://www3.clustrmaps.com/counter/maps.php?url=http:/taufanlubis.wordpress.com)

• Click Catagories, in this sample: My Visitors
  

• In the image address field, fill: your image link (example: http://www3.clustrmaps.com/counter/index2.php?url=http:/taufanlubis.wordpress.com)
  

• Click save after finish.

• Click view site to see the result.

Programming Language – NASM (Assembly language in Linux)

At about 22 years ago, Assembly Language is my second language after BASICA. I used Borland Turbo Assembler and Microsoft Debug on that time. I think Debug one of the very powerful tools for hacking. I like hacking. With Assembly, you can order the machine to do anything you want and go directly to every ports in the machine.

I just figure out, is there any Assembly Language in Linux?

Because, usually Assembly Language use DOS Services. Meanwhile, there is no DOS in Linux.

I finally found a good application, named NASM (Net wide Assembler). It’s a Assembly Language compiler in Linux. I’m still new with NASM, so I just take the sample codes from http://leto.net/writing/nasm.php.

NASM doesn’t have a text editor, so you have to type your code using other text editor then save the file with .asm file extension.

There are few main differences to be considered when you use assembly language in Linux:

• In DOS mostly you use interrupt int 21h, int 10h and int 16h. In Linux, everything is handled by kernel with int 80h.

• Linux is a 32-bit protected mode operating system, so you have to use extended 32-bit registers, such as EAX, EBX, ECX and so on. In 16-bit register, you still use AX, BX,CX etc …. registers.

• In 32-bit programming, you don’t have to think about segments at all because it runs in the flat memory model.

• I think no body write DOS assembly anymore. Hey… it’s 16 bit.

How I can get Nasm?

NASM is listed in Ubuntu Repository, so just download it using apt.

taufanlubis@toshiba:~$ sudo apt-get install nasm

Write your first Linux Assembly Language Application

When I learn a new computer language, the first thing I want to know is, how to display a ‘Hello World!!!’. I don’t want to know about the structure, variables, codes etc. Just do a simple thing, type, compile and see it run. That’s it. Then you can go further. It’s the same when you teach a baby to speak. We don’t teach any grammar. We give samples.

So, here it is.

Step 1. Type the code

You can use, vim, vi, gedit etc. The extension must be .asm.

taufanlubis@toshiba:~$ sudo vim hello.asm

[sudo] password for taufanlubis:

section .data

hello: db ‘Hello world!’,10

helloLen: equ $-hello

section .text

global _start

_start:

mov eax,4

mov ebx,1

mov ecx,hello

mov edx,helloLen

int 80h

mov eax,1

mov ebx,0

int 80h

Press ‘Esc‘ button and type ‘:wq‘ to save the file.

Actually, I’m new myself in Assembly Programming in Linux. I took the codes above from the NASM website. I just wanna show you that we can do Assembly Programming in Linux. If you want to know deeper you can go

to this link: ……………………..

Step 2. Compile .asm (source code) to .o (object)

taufanlubis@toshiba:~$ nasm -f elf hello.asm

Step 3. Link the object file to produce an executable file.

taufanlubis@toshiba:~$ ld -s -o hello hello.o

Now, you have 3 files, hello.asm (your source code), hello.o (your object file) and hello (your program).

taufanlubis@toshiba:~$ ls -l hello*

-rwxr-xr-x 1 taufanlubis taufanlubis 440 2008-01-17 20:38 hello

-rw-r–r– 1 root root 203 2008-01-17 20:33 hello.asm

-rw-r–r– 1 taufanlubis taufanlubis 736 2008-01-17 20:37 hello.o

Step 3. Ready to run

You can run your program by typing:

taufanlubis@toshiba:~$ ./hello

Hello world!

taufanlubis@toshiba:~$

Congratulations! You have just written your first assembly program in Linux.

If you want to know more details about nasm and ld, you can see the manual.

taufanlubis@toshiba:~$ man ld

taufanlubis@toshiba:~$ man nasm

Penetration tools – etherape

Etherape is graphical network traffic browser. It uses gnome library for displaying graphical network activity. Node and link color shows the most used protocol. The more busy a node is, the bigger its representation. For packet capture and filtering, it uses libpcap.

The etherape webpage is at http://etherape.sourceforge.net/.

Etherape only can see the traffic physically passing on the net card.

The display will be different if you use a Switched network and if you use a Hub network in the same network.

If you use a Switch network, you will only see every packet data that go in and go out through your net card.

If you use a Hub network, you will see every packets data that are transmitted to every net card.
