[Seum]

I was getting tired of having the same IP on my schools network.
It didn't help just to spoof my mac.
So I wrote a this script. I just run the script on boot.

It's a simple script, but I thought someone could maybe use it.

PHP Code:

#!/usr/bin/php <?php /******************************************** * Random host generator * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * The script takes 3 arguments * arg 1: Path to hosts file * arg 2: Path to hostname file * arg 3: Path to list of hostnames * * The script could easily be * modified to have the paths hardcoded * in the script, so you didn't had to pass * any arguments * Just replace all $argv[*] with your paths *********************************************/ $etc_hosts = file($argv[1]); $hostname = file($argv[3]); $h = array_rand($hostname,1); $hostname = $hostname[$h]; file_put_contents($argv[2], $hostname); $replacement = array(1 => "127.0.1.1 $hostname"); $etc_hosts = array_replace($etc_hosts,$replacement); file_put_contents($argv[1], $etc_hosts); $hostname = str_replace("\n","",$hostname); $setHost = "hostname ".$hostname; system($setHost); ?>
