  • How does Linux I/O redirection work?

    I need help with linux I/O redirection. I wrote this command: $ cat < file234.sh.

    file234.sh contains:filelist.sh filescat.sh.

    The output from the cat command was filelist.sh

    filescat.sh

    I was expecting the command to concatenate the contents of the files filelist.sh and filescat.sh and print the result.

    Please tell me why it doesn't work.

  • How to access ip camera over the internet?

    I have an ip camera connected to a router.I've done port forwarding and I can access the camera by typing the external ip address of the router in a browser.The problem is I have dynamic external ip.Is there any other free solution available besides freeDNS services?I was thinking of routing the private ip address of the camera directly to the internet and since I don't use dhcp for my network that address would be static and easy to remember.

    I don't really like freedns services because I have to leave my computer on all the time.
