notify

This is a cool little script from projectnotify that lets you send yourself email/Slack/Discord/Teams/etc. notifications from output of tools, system events, and more!

One of my favorite things to do is tail a log file from something like ntlmrelayx so that when I get a "hit" for something important - like the dumping of LAPS passwords - I can notify myself through one or more comms channels. Check out this example:

Example: use notify to fire the notify program when specific text gets written to a log file​

This script watches ntlmrelay.log and anytime the word LAPS is written to it, it sends me the contents of alert.txt:

#!/bin/bash

tail -Fn0 /home/kali/ntlmrelay.log | \
while read line; do
  echo "$line" | grep -i "LAPS" &> /dev/null
  if [ $? = 0 ]; then
    /home/kali/notify -p discord -i /home/kali/alert.txt
  fi
done
