ANSTE is a testing tool for complex scenarios. It allows to run tests loading some virtual machines, configuring it’s network interfaces and runing some scripts on them.

gems - Terminal Broadcasting

Thu, 19 Feb 2009 17:52:08 +0000

We had a issue for the next Warp Talk. All the talk will be done with a shell as presentation tool. But people won’t see the text on the shell trough the cam, as it resolution is limited.

Isaac have found vía Debian package of the day Gems.

Gems allows exactly what we need, broadcast a terminal by tcp/ip. Screen would be the first thought, but a ssh connection from unknown people was needed :S.

Apache Authentication with eBox openLDAP

Sat, 31 Jan 2009 19:51:55 +0000

I’m using eBox to manage my server. eBox was mind for enterprise networks, but dns and email modules are very useful for a internet server.

eBox manages email users with openLDAP (slapd), so I wanted all the services in my server to use the same authentication.

This is the general configuration for apache authenticating with eBox, wich I use for my SVN repositories:

# LDAP Authentication & Authorization is final; do not check other databases
AuthzLDAPAuthoritative on

# Do basic password authentication in the clear
AuthType basic
AuthBasicProvider ldap

# The name of the protected area or "realm"
AuthName "Triangulo de las merluzas Subversion Repositories"

# Active Directory requires an authenticating DN to access records
# This is the DN used to bind to the directory service
# This is an Active Directory user account
AuthLDAPBindDN "cn=admin,dc=ebox"

# This is the password for the AuthLDAPBindDN user in Active Directory
AuthLDAPBindPassword "secret"

# Group Configuration
AuthLDAPGroupAttributeIsDN off
AuthLDAPGroupAttribute memberUid

# The LDAP query URL
AuthLDAPURL  "ldap://localhost:389/ou=Users,dc=ebox?uid"

# Require authentication for this Location.
# In this case, only developers can use the repository.
Require ldap-group cn=developers,ou=Groups,dc=ebox
