Problem with login in FR wiki
I'm trying to post on FR WIKI with an openID account, as I try to log in with my ID I get an Authentication failed - Insufficient data from authentication provider, name not provided or empty error. The same happens to me when I try to log in with my GitHub account. Somebody has an idea? - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe? See http://www.freeradius.org/list/users.html

Wiki requires email?

Arran did a bunch of work to fix the wiki engine (gollum) written by github. It's now running wiki.freeradius.org, and wiki.luajit.org. It reached the front page of Hacker News, and the /r/programming section of reddit. The system load was pretty much zero.

1. HTML tags like 'pre' will not be parsed by all renderers, just

For markdown its 3 spaces or a tab in front of every line, for RST
it's double colon, return, 4 spaces indent in front of every line.
I strongly, strongly, strongly dislike (i.e. hate) this mode of doing code
or config files.
Why? Because if you use pre or MoinMoin style {{{ you can just copy/paste
straight from the config file(s) you're pulling the examples from without
having to prepend whitespace.
If you make me indent using whitespace to get preformatted text, then you've
lost me I'm afraid; I just won't bother. Those few seconds push the cost too
high.
Ok. I'm not saying these things to be an asshole. The point of moving to Gollum
was that users would be able to contribute to the bundled documentation. The
wiki now serves as a repository for server docs (or will do once we figure out
subtrees), it just also happens to render those documents into HTML.
If you were rewriting server documentation which you knew was going to be read
in plaintext format, would you start adding random HTML markup? The point of
RST is that while it can be rendered up into another format such as HTML
document, it should be just as easy to read and understand in its raw form.
2. The main reason for moving to Gollum was so that users could
contribute directly to documentation without needing to learn GIT.
The end goal is to distribute the entire wiki with the server tar
ball, which means people will be reading just the plaintext source.
In which case, my argument holds the other way; people will want to
copy/paste straight out of the examples.
If they're pasting into a virtual server instance they're going to need to
indent at least one set of tabs if they want to keep the config looking pretty.
If they don't care then not having the code indented won't matter to them
either way..
You need to come up with something better for preformatted code IMHO. Your
choice of course.
There is no better alternative. You need to indent code blocks for them to be
easily legible, as it breaks them out of the normal flow of the document.
If it's going to be a huge issue I could probably add something to gollum which
converts pre tags into the appropriate white space scheme before committing
the text to the repository. Would you still have an issue with this?

I think that's Phil's point. The code he is cutting and pasting in is
no doubt already indented. However, what it probably has is either:
* no initial indentation (start tab or space)
* that indential probably is a tab rather than spacespace
I love dokuwiki for documentation, but it is a right ballache to find
that when you cut and paste in your configuration snippet I *then* have
to go through spacespacehomedown-cursorgoto 10 before it is
usable.
Sure it seems not a biggy, but it is a right turnoff and makes us all
less inclinded to put in the effort.
If it's going to be a huge issue I could probably add something to
gollum which converts pre tags into the appropriate white space
scheme before committing the text to the repository. Would you still

That would be pretty schweet. I would not 'pre-process' the text, I

I think that's Phil's point. The code he is cutting and pasting in is
no doubt already indented. However, what it probably has is either:
* no initial indentation (start tab or space)
* that indential probably is a tab rather than spacespace
Hmm re-reading the RST spec it seems that any indentation will work (i.e. one
space before each line, or one tab).
To just include a chunk of preformatted, never-to-be-fiddled-with text, finish
the prior paragraph with ::. The preformatted block is finished when the text
falls back to the same indentation level as a paragraph prior to the
preformatted block. For example:
An example::
Whitespace, newlines, blank lines, and all kinds of markup
(like *this* or \this) is preserved by literal blocks.
Lookie here, I've dropped an indentation level
(but not far enough)
no more example
Is that any better? I mean you don't *have* to edit the wiki page in situ,
usually I copy the text out of the webpage into BBEdit the paste it back...
What we could do for the very active Git savy contributors would be to enable
commit access to the wiki's repo, then you could work on the documents in gvim,
vim, emacs... whatever at which point indenting blocks of code becomes very
easy.
Also lets you work on pages offline.
I love dokuwiki for documentation, but it is a right ballache to find
that when you cut and paste in your configuration snippet I *then* have
to go through spacespacehomedown-cursorgoto 10 before it is
usable.
Sure it seems not a biggy, but it is a right turnoff and makes us all
less inclinded to put in the effort.
If it's going to be a huge issue I could probably add something to
gollum which converts pre tags into the appropriate white space
scheme before committing the text to the repository. Would you still
have an issue with this?
That would be pretty schweet. I would not 'pre-process' the text, I
would make sure those pre/{{{/whatever remains intact so you do not
suffer indentation pain when editing existing content.
But that'd mean i'd have to do the reverse when displaying the src, and I
actually like viewing the src with indented code blocks compared to pre tags
*sigh*.
I could add a javascript function mapped to a key combo, that indents selected
lines by one tab (more universal than spaces)?

The point of moving to Gollum was that users would be able to contribute to the bundled documentation. The wiki now serves as a repository for server docs (or will do once we figure out subtrees), it just also happens to render those documents into HTML. If you were rewriting server documentation which you knew was going to be read in plaintext format, would you start adding random HTML markup? The point of RST is that while it I get that, and your efforts are much appreciated. My point was as Alex clarified - it's a pain to indent lines with space/tab in a browser text box. So much so that it will put me off contributing. There are loads of possible solutions - permit pre, convert it as per your suggestion, offer a button that uses javascript to indent the current selection... Personally I find the argument for plaintext docs weakens with every passing year; I routinely read the ISC bind ARM with links in a terminal. But if you're going to use plaintext, and to rule against certain plaintext markup forms, hit space a lot is not for me a compelling alternative :o) -- Sent from my phone.

General wiki rules
Ok heres the deal. There are three formats we use on the wiki: 1. markdown 2. restructuredtext 3. mediawiki Mediawiki pages contain content from our old mediawiki instance. Feel free to convert these to RST or Markdown, the wiki cloth renderer sucks so they probably won't render quite right in mediawiki format anyway. restructuedtext pages either came from the docs directory in the server, or were created in RST because the author thought they might one day be included in the server docs. If you're editing a page in restructured text DO NOT CHANGE THE FORMAT. RST is the preferred format for all new pages. markdown pages are intended to exist exclusively on the wiki, we only really allow markdown because the syntax is easier than RST and there are cute little buttons to do basic formatting so it makes it easier for wiki novices to contribute. HTML tags in wiki content are bad. DO NOT USE THEM EVER! Instead use the proper code formatting system for the format you're using. 1. HTML tags like 'pre' will not be parsed by all renderers, just because it works in Gollum, doesn't mean it will work with a proper renderer for that markup format. For markdown its 3 spaces or a tab in front of every line, for RST it's double colon, return, 4 spaces indent in front of every line. 2. The main reason for moving to Gollum was so that users could contribute directly to documentation without needing to learn GIT. The end goal is to distribute the entire wiki with the server tar ball, which means people will be reading just the plaintext source. Having HTML tags everywhere is ugly, having properly indented code examples is pretty. -Arran Arran Cudbard-Bell a.cudba...@freeradius.org RADIUS - Half the complexity of Diameter - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe?

I strongly, strongly, strongly dislike (i.e. hate) this mode of doing

Why? Because if you use pre or MoinMoin style {{{ you can just
copy/paste straight from the config file(s) you're pulling the examples
from without having to prepend whitespace.
If you make me indent using whitespace to get preformatted text, then
you've lost me I'm afraid; I just won't bother. Those few seconds push
the cost too high.

You need to come up with something better for preformatted code IMHO.
Your choice of course.

Dear FreeRADIUS users, The wiki will be going down for maintenance in approximately 10 minutes (8:50AM GMT), hope to have it back up within about 30 minutes. Please save any pages you're working on. The downtime is to switch to a new branching structure to manage customisations, and to switch from the original omniauth hack to a sinatra module. The modifications should fix the following issues: * TOC displayed but sometimes jumps out of page flow (CSS bug) * TOC not displayed in preview pages * Authentication button images smushed into unreadable form in Firefox (CSS bug) * 500 error, or exception when valid name field has not been sent from provider * Logout button always kicks back to the home page (will now redirect back to the previous page) - Note: if you're editing and you log out, you will be immediately prompted to log back in, this isn't a bug... * Authentication process starts sooner when you attempt to create a page, it doesn't wait for you to attempt to save the page before prompting login. * Possibly fixes the -_ whitespace substitution issues in page path I'm also re-adding twitter now the source of the spam has been found. -Arran - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe?

problem pages I found.
1) I click login, both of the buttons (Github and Facebook) have
incorrect height, much shorter than the actual imag, obscuring most of
the buttons (Firefox 3.5.8 linux x86_64). e.g. the github logo shows
just the ears and top of the head, everything below that is cut off.
2) when I click the button to auth via github (I've never logged in to
the wiki before), I get a runtime error:
RuntimeError at /auth/github/callback

Re: wiki auth error
I actually rewrote the omniauth integration as a Sinatra plugin, which returns
a 401 error (unauthorized) with more friendly error messages, i've just been
too tied up with other things to install it. It also fixes the button height
issue which is a CSS error that doesn't appear under chrome, but does under
Firefox.
If either UID, or Name are blank then authentication is not allowed this is to
prevent spam. It's not something omniauth does by default, it's something I
added explicitly.

The FreeRADIUS mailing list doesn't have an official web frontend, it's mirrored by services like nabble which are in no way associated with the project. People just use their email client... Wikicloth (the media wiki parsing engine) sucks more than we'd anticipated. It often stops processing halfway through a wiki page, and shows no content even though their is markup present in the page if you click the edit link. Its TOC implementation also sucks. Try the following in a media wiki page... = Heading 1= == Heading 6 == = Heading 5 = Heading 4 === Heading 3 === == Heading 2 == = Heading 1 = Mmm fun times..

Wiki - once upon a time there was documentation
Hi to all, what happened to the contents of the wiki?

Offsite linking to the new wiki
Hi All, It's come to our attention that some offsite links were using hardcoded underscores to substitute spaces in wiki URLs. Because gollum uses hyphens (-) as a substitute for whitespace instead of underscores (_), these pages appeared not to exist in the new wiki. I've created a patch (https://github.com/github/gollum/pull/166) to fix this, so that whitespace in filenames becomes a wildcard match for either '-' '_' or ' '. This will also be preserved if the filename changes. However, to stop the gollum people getting too annoyed, new pages created using gollum will not have the wildcard match, as they are created with hypens (-) instead of spaces (even if the page title contains space). So for linking these files, you'll need to either use hyphens (-) or spaces. So in summary: wiki.freeradius.org/exisiting_foo_bar - Works wiki.freeradius.org/exisiting-foo-bar - Works wiki.freeradius.org/exisiting foo bar - Works wiki.freeradius.org/new_foo_bar - Doesn't work wiki.freeradius.org/new-foo-bar - Works wiki.freeradius.org/new foo bar - Works -Arran Arran Cudbard-Bell RM-RF Limited - Security consultation and contracting VoIP: +1 916-436-1352 Cell: +44 7854041841 - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe?

Re: New FreeRADIUS wiki - Help appreciated!
Hi, Sure... but we have hard-code the URL, and register the app. That takes ~10 min, but it needs to be done. OpenID is different from OAuth (or SAML): it is completely self-asserted. If you enable OpenID on your resource, the user is asked Which URL can authenticate you - user enters it, gets redirected there, and comes back with some token when done. So, my identity on OpenID is for example https://clueless.restena.lu/swinter - and that's the input I provide. The concept is kind of cute, but some people are scared by the self-assertedness of identity. Stefan Alan DeKok. - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe?

New FreeRADIUS wiki - Help appreciated!
Dear Users, One of the largest complains with FreeRADIUS is the lack of comprehensive documentation. The current wiki @ wiki.freeradius.org has served its purpose, but has ultimately failed to provide an update to date, well organised source of documentation. The current major problems with the wiki are: * spam users - which meant we had to lock registration, and discouraged new users from contributing * exporting information - all pages are stored in an sql lite instance, which makes it hard to automatically roll pages into releases * formatting information - Information stored in the wiki is in the Media wiki format, whereas the documentation bundled with FreeRADIUS is either unformatted or in rst format. To try and solve these issues and glue everything together a bit more, i've been working with Alan DeKok to set up a new instance of Gollum. Gollum is a ruby on rails application which exposes a git repository as wiki site. Gollum can render files in many markup languages including plaintext, RST and Mediawiki format, which means we can import all current server documentation, all current wiki documentation and have them neatly presented in a single wiki site. Neat huh? But what about spam and registration? Well by default gollum doesn't authenticate anyone. But because it's a rails application we can drop in a library called 'OmniAuth' which uses Oauth to authenticate a bunch of providers. This allows us to leverage authentication and spam account prevention services of providers like GitHub, Facebook and Twitter. Unfortunately the new wiki isn't ready from primetime. The mediawiki page format renderer in gollum isn't perfect, so we need to convert those pages to RST as a priority. If you want to help out, please do the following: 1) Sign up for Facebook, Twitter or GitHub 2) Go to http://power.freeradius.org:4567 3) Pick a page where the MediaWiki format doesn't render correctly 4) Edit it 5) Change edit mode from MediaWiki to reStructuredText 6) Convert markup to RST (see here: http://docutils.sourceforge.net/docs/ref/rst/restructuredtext.html) 7) Save the page 8) Get warm fuzzy glow from contributing to open source Also please report any bugs here: https://github.com/github/gollum/issues?_pjax=truestate=open Many Thanks, Arran Arran Cudbard-Bell RM-RF Limited - Security consultation and contracting VoIP: +1 916-436-1352 Cell: +44 7854041841 - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe?

I'm not sure why it appears slow from where you are, it's pretty speedy from Sacramento, California, and the Server is in France. Also the new wiki doesn't use SQL, as I mentioned in the previous post all data storage is GIT. I did just have to restart it to fix some issues with the login status bar at the top which was broken by an update to the Mustache markup library, which may explain the connection errors. Please let me know if you continue to experience slowness and connection errors.

I'm not sure why it appears slow from where you are, it's pretty speedy from Sacramento, California, and the Server is in France. Also the new wiki doesn't use SQL, as I mentioned in the previous post all data storage is GIT. I did just have to restart it to fix some issues with the login status bar at the top which was broken by an update to the Mustache markup library, which may explain the connection errors. Please let me know if you continue to experience slowness and connection errors. It's still slow. Using wget reveals something interesting though: - it's connected almost immediately - HTTP request sent, awaiting response... took over 10 seconds - once I got 200 OK, the content is transferred very quickly, so it's not connection speed problem. Does ruby (or apache, or whatever web frontend you use) perform reverse address lookup by default? If yes, it might explain the long response time somewhat. -- Fajar - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe? See http://www.freeradius.org/list/users.html

Had to update the entire ruby install to 1.9.2 to get the version of the library which allows you to disable it, but it is now disabled and I can the logs are no longer showing FQDNs. Could you try one last time and see if this was the issue you were running in to.

So the current policy is: - anyone can register (via github etc) - any logged-in user can create/edit new page Is that correct?

We may add group restrictions at some point if they're needed, but if there's no spam issues or edit wars then it's probably not necessary. -Arran Arran Cudbard-Bell RM-RF Limited - Security consultation and contracting VoIP: +1 916-436-1352 Cell: +44 7854041841 - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe?

I'll try updating the FAQ with some new entries later. Yes. By using OAuth, we can avoid the problem of managing users ourselves, and also tie edits to real people. That should avoid most of the spam issues. The wiki is also available via git, in case you want to do off-line editing. I'll move the DNS entries, and update the web server so that it becomes the new wiki.freeradius.org. Alan DeKok. - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe? See http://www.freeradius.org/list/users.html
