Hi, I am connecting to a wiki that exists in a private network through an ssh tunnel. =20 wiki: http://10.0.0.10/wiki me: 192.168.1.100 public IP 123.45.67.89 has internal IP 10.0.0.89 ben@me ~$ ssh -L8080:10.0.0.10:80 123.45.67.89 connect to http://localhost:8080/wiki My problem is that when I load this page with Firefox, it interprets the "base href" tag on the page to write all the links with their full path, i.e. http://10.0.0.10/wiki/index.php/PageName Heavily excerpted HTML: <html> <head> <base href=3D"http://10.0.0.10/wiki/index.php/" /> </head> <body> <a href=3D"PageName" class=3D"wiki">PageName</a> </body> </html> So, firefox reads this to mean that when I click on PageName, it takes me to http://10.0.0.10/wiki/index.php/PageName. Obviously, this doesn't work. I see that base href is specified in the templates: [ben@punchout wiki]$ grep -ri "base href" * themes/Crao/templates/head.tmpl:<base href=3D"<?=3DPHPWIKI_BASE_URL?>" /> themes/wikilens/templates/head.tmpl:<base href=3D"<?=3DPHPWIKI_BASE_URL?>" = /> themes/default/templates/dialog.tmpl:<base href=3D"<?=3DPHPWIKI_BASE_URL?>"= /> themes/default/templates/head.tmpl:<base href=3D"<?=3DPHPWIKI_BASE_URL?>" /> themes/default/templates/redirect.tmpl:<base href=3D"<?=3DPHPWIKI_BASE_URL?= >" /> I would like to strip out the 'base href', but I'm not sure what other effects this will have, or if this in even the right way to do it. Do you have any advice on how to streamline connecting to a wiki through a tunnel? Thanks, -ben --=20 Ben Hartshorne email: be...@ha... http://ben.hartshorne.net |

I need to access the wiki (through my tunnel from home) at http://localhost:8080/wiki/ Everyone else in the office (on the same local net as the wiki) accesses the wiki at its real address: http://10.0.0.10/wiki. =20 I can't very well set the SERVER_NAME to localhost, because then anyone accessing it directly (not through a tunnel) will have links pointing them to their local computer. Also, I happen to choose port 8080 for my tunnel, but what if someone else chooses local port 8000? or 4566? =20 What I have done in the interim is changed the IP address to a hostname (wikiserv), so on the same private net as the wiki, people can access http://wikiserv/wiki. I can then modify my /etc/hosts file on my local computer to alias wikserv to localhost. Further, since I can be root, I have set the source port of my ssh tunnel to port 80 instead of 8080, which lets me access the wiki at http://wikiservr/wiki as well. This is an unsatisfactory solution, because it is * excessively complex for a non-technical remote employee * takes over port 80, preventing me from running a local web server. (the second point is more important in my mind) I think making the URLs relative instead of absolute within the wiki would be far preferable. =20 Thoughts? -ben >=20 > On 9/13/05, Ben Hartshorne <ph...@gr...> wrote: > >=20 > > Hi, > >=20 > > I am connecting to a wiki that exists in a private network through an > > ssh tunnel. > >=20 > > wiki: http://10.0.0.10/wiki > > me: 192.168.1.100 <http://192.168.1.100> > > public IP 123.45.67.89 <http://123.45.67.89> has internal IP 10.0.0.89<= http://10.0.0.89> > >=20 > > ben@me ~$ ssh -L8080:10.0.0.10:80 <http://10.0.0.10:80> 123.45.67.89<ht= tp://123.45.67.89> > >=20 > > connect to http://localhost:8080/wiki > >=20 > > My problem is that when I load this page with Firefox, it interprets the > > "base href" tag on the page to write all the links with their full path, > > i.e. http://10.0.0.10/wiki/index.php/PageName > >=20 > > Heavily excerpted HTML: > > <html> > > <head> > > <base href=3D"http://10.0.0.10/wiki/index.php/" /> > > </head> > > <body> > > <a href=3D"PageName" class=3D"wiki">PageName</a> > > </body> > > </html> > >=20 > > So, firefox reads this to mean that when I click on PageName, it takes > > me to http://10.0.0.10/wiki/index.php/PageName.
