Summary: add delegate multilevel proxy

Initial Comment:
http://www.delegate.org/delegate/

DeleGate is a multi-purpose application level gateway, 
or a proxy server which runs on multiple platforms (Unix, 
Windows, MacOS X and OS/2). DeleGate mediates 
communication of various protocols (HTTP, FTP, NNTP, 
SMTP, POP, Telnet, SOCKS, etc.), applying cache and 
conversion for mediated data, controlling access from 
clients and routing toward servers. It translates protocols 
between clients and servers, applying SSL(TLS) to 
arbitrary protocols, merging several servers into a single 
server view with aliasing and filtering. Born as a tiny 
proxy for Gopher in March 1994, it has steadily grown 
into a general purpose proxy server. Besides proxy, 
DeleGate can be used as a simple origin server for 
some protocols (HTTP, FTP and NNTP).

[Devil-linux-develop] HostAP driver works under DL

[Emmanuel E. <ee...@fr...>]

Hi Heiko,

thanks to your help i have successfully build DL 0.6 from cvs and i get 
the hostap driver (cvs too) work fine on my notebook. :-))

I have a little more job to do before releasing that work :

    - test it with a pci wireless card and with the ap mod enabled (mode 
master), it's my goal !

    - there is two builds of the pccard driver : with or without 
pcmcia-cs installed; i only tested the second version and don't know if 
it is possible to integrate both as the pcmcia-cs version is compiled by 
that package and the kernel version is compiled with hostap distrib. :-? 
Do they both install in the same directory, with the same name??

    - i had to make a new patch for pcmcia-cs-3.2.4 as the one shipped 
with the hostap sources was for 3.1.34; this patch is needed during 
build process if CONFIG_PCCMCIA-CS=y and is applied against pcmcia-cs 
package; how to integrate it cleanly in the hostap files (for ex during 
make unpack), before the build process is launched ?

    - make some useful documentation (which comes with the tarball) to 
copy in DL's doc dir (make install does nothing about it)

    - write a mini howto about configuring a wireless card with that 
driver on DL

    - it seems some optionnal tools (sniffer, daemon, ...) are provided 
with the driver and are not compiled with the main Makefile; i had to 
evaluate their use to integrate them in the process.


I hope releasing something very soon as i'll be very busy next week .

Any comments are welcome ;-)

Re: [Devil-linux-develop] SSL & Webmin & DL/eLSD Custom Config

[John v. V. <joh...@ya...>]

thttpd blew up on me in RedHat 8.0

Rather than try to fix it, I will go w/ the webmin miniserv for the time being,
as I need the login page for my own config stuff.

I really need to get busy w/ my uClibc install.  Codepoet offers a full ext2
filesystem.  I just have to integrate the DL Initrd and ISO build and then
bundle it in BOCHS.  There is a pretty complete list of applications on the
uClbic site, and the mailing list shows no code delivered before its time.

I am eagerly awaiting the promised perl portal, Metadot.   The down side is
that as soon as I distribute concepts, the big corps will try to patent them,
despite "prior art."

Much of the content is going to be theoretical and social, maybe I should offer
that first and require non-disclosure agreements for architecture that goes the
beyond normal linux stuff.  It is too bad that people can't respect the public
domain.

Cheers, John

[Devil-linux-develop] SSL & Webmin & DL/eLSD Custom Config

[John v. V. <joh...@ya...>]

Hi all,

I was trying to get apache 2.x SSL to work, ugh, bugs, contradictory documents.

So I looked at thttpd - ho!! - no SSL support (does it really belong in DL then
??)

Since I just installed Webmin... I created a directory for a tiny OO dataserver
/ html tool I created for web desktops next to the other ones and it works just
fine.

Since I have an OO data editor running w/ no truly effective security the
password function for Webmin is ideal

But.. not if you are trying to download extra packages for the harddrive or for
experimental purposes.  

Also, if we want to download configuration -- the etc.tar.gz -- the password
function has to be automated.  I wouldn't even know where to start.

LDAP is persistent, it just won't go away.  I suggested it before so I think I
will try a little DL/eLSD proof-of-concept.

My configuration of choice is the transport of the complex structure.  The
structure is completely visable, but as soon as I figure out how, I will
encrypt the data.  Authentication is via MD5 challenge.  A goody but oldy.

I have been doing so in perl for years, my new idea is to replace the class
structure w/ XML (see water) with the same embedded binary code and encrypted
data.  That way typical XML readers could see the structure.  My OO html/data
combo is designed to do this, but I can't spend my whole life working on it.

Since the promised Perl web portal is a week behind delivery, I may start
putting content in this tool, called DepthDB.  I also have a sourceforge
project by the same name, but never populated it.  Damn time is hard to find,
even when you are unemployed.

Dang -- I really want to get BOCHS working w/ new uClibc and busybox installs. 
I would also like to re-awaken development on Initrd, to convert it to InitVFS.

Ok, cheers folks !!

The changes in this release are as follows:
Some minor bugfixes were made. 

Project description:
syslog-ng, as the name shows, is a syslogd replacement, but with new
functionality for the new generation. The original syslogd allows

It failed again.
The problem is not grsec, it's the xfs patch which fails to apply.
So just unselect xfs and your compile should work.

XFS is anyway not supported at the moment, because it doesn't work well=

with grsec.
When somebody want's to fix the problem now, I'm more then happy to thr=
ow
it into CVS.

Ok the first compile with xfs and no grsec failed.
I updated xfs and the tools for it and started a recompile.
6 1/2 hours left until I have to get up, so time to go in direction bed.

A "mrproper" is necessary to ensure a clean build environment. The next 
step would be a "really-really-clean" which means deleting everything 
and unpacking the lfssystem. This is the way I use before I release any 
new version.

Summary: dhcrelay bugs

Initial Comment:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. The binary dhcrelay (/usr/sbin/) is not there.

As a workaround for my requiries I copied a binary of 
dhcrelay to
/etc. In the start script I have this dirty hack:

--- snip ---
if [ ! -e /usr/sbin/dhcrelay ]; then
        ln -s /etc/dhcrelay /usr/sbin/dhcrelay
fi
--- snip ---

------------------------------------------------------------------------
2. The config variables are wrong:

In /etc/sysconfig/config the variable
START_ISC_DHCP
should enable/disable the start of dhcrelay.

In /etc/dhcrelay the name of this variable is:
--- snip ---
NAME="ISC DHCP relay agent"
DAEMON=/usr/sbin/dhcrelay
CONFIGNAME=DHCP_RELAY
--- snip ---

I changed the part of the start script where "start 
yes/no" is
tested to:

--- snip ---
NAME="ISC DHCP relay agent"
DAEMON=/usr/sbin/dhcrelay
CONFIGNAME=ISC_DHCP
--- snip ---

to reflect the name used in /etc/sysconfig/config.

I hope you mean "make mrproper unpack menuconfig"

That really sounds like you didn't do a "make mrproper".

It's important that there is no CONFIG_GRSECURITY=y .
I checked the script again, I can't find any problems.
Do you know if CONFIG_XFS and CONFIG_GRSECURITY were set to "y" ?

pb ?

Check out what "grep GRSECURITY *" show in the build/scripts directory.
Mine is like that:
$ grep GRSECURITY *
grsecurity:     if [ "$CONFIG_GRSECURITY" = "y" ] ; then
grsecurity:     if [ "$CONFIG_GRSECURITY" = "y" ] ; then
grsecurity:             [ "$CONFIG_XFS" = "y" ] || menu_add "Security" 
bool "GRSecurity Patch (enhances system security and will break XFS)
  CONFIG_GRSECURITY
xfsprogs:               [ "$CONFIG_GRSECURITY" = "y" ] || menu_add 
"Filesystem" bool "XFS Support" CONFIG_XFS

A symlink to $DL_DIR/build/tmp/linux-2.4.20/include/linux is created in 
/usr/include during the early build process.
That's our way to ensure the usage of the correct include files for the 
current Kernel.

Always try to avoid modifying tarballs, use patches. If it is really 
necessary, then we include modified tarballs, but only when we really 
have to do it. This makes later software updates much easier.

About the depmod stuff, you can use it when it doesn't run into an 
error, which should not happen that late in the build stage (I mean 
after 159linux). We don't use the generated data and create our own when 
the system boots up.

It's about time. ;-)

When changing some configuration scripts, it might be
