[webmin-devel] heartbeat authkeys

[paddy <pa...@pa...>]

Hi,

I'm just looking at the heartbeat module in webmin 1.80.
The rest of the box is debian sarge with heartbeat_1.2.3-5.

I'm new to heartbeat, and have no idea yet whether the
authkeys file format has changed.

The authkeys interface doesn't seem to map to the underlying
config file.  As I read it the format is something like:

auth    <indexi-to-use>
<index> <cipher> <pass>
<index> <cipher> <pass>
<index> <cipher> <pass>

such that <index-to-use> specifies which line to actually use.

examples from the documentation include:

auth 1
1 crc
2 sha1 HI!
3 md5 Hello!

and

auth 1
1 sha1 key-for-sha1-any-text-you-want

A simple hack would start something like:

--- edit_auth.cgi.dist  2005-01-27 18:32:54.000000000 +0000
+++ edit_auth.cgi       2005-02-01 18:50:10.000000000 +0000

 $i = 1;
 foreach $k ('crc', 'sha1', 'md5') {
        printf "<input type=radio name=auth value=%d %s> %s\n",
-               $i, $conf->{'auth'}->[0] == $i ? "checked" : "",
+               $i, $conf->{"$conf->{'auth'}->[0]"}->[0] eq $k ?  "checked" : "",
                $text{"auth_$k"};
        if ($k ne 'crc') {
                printf "<input name=%s size=20 value='%s'>\n",
-                       $k, $conf->{$i}->[1];
+                       $k, $conf->{"$conf->{'auth'}->[0]"}->[0] eq $k ?
+                       $conf->{"$conf->{'auth'}->[0]"}->[1] : "";
                }
        print "<br>\n";
        $i++;

But as I understand it, having multiple <index,cipher,pass> lines is a
feature.

It may be a little while before I get around to implementing support for
this (assuming that I've read this rightly and that such would be welcome),
and I certainly wouldn't be upset if anyone beat me to it :)

Regards,
Paddy
