[leaf-user] Bering-uClibc, are Julian Anastasov's routing patches applied?
Hi, Can anybody tell me whether Julian Anastasov's routing patches are applied to stock Bering-uClibc disks? http://www.ssi.bg/~ja/#routes Or more generally, how can I find out what patches have been applied to Bering-uClibc? Is there a list somewhere? Thanks, James. The information in this email is confidential and may be legally privileged. It is intended solely for the addressee.

[leaf-user] Can webconf be made read-only (kidsafe)?
I'm using Bering uClibc on a small home network several of whose users are teenagers. We've just moved from an old floppy-based system to a WRAP board so that there'll be room for software to enforce time-based internet access restrictions -- meant to get them sleeping when they'd rather be surfing and chatting with friends. While webconf is really cool, I'm concerned that it makes it too easy for the kids to change things. While you need the root password to use lrcfg, you need only an easily-sniffable http-access password to use webconf. I'd like a way to make webconf read-only so that it can be used for status information the way weblet was. Is there any way to do this? Alternatively, could I just go back to using weblet? Webconf is so much more powerful I'm expecting weblet to be deprecated, but perhaps weblet remains the right tool for folks like me? Thanks, as always, for LEAF. --Eric -- ** * From the desktop of: Eric House, [EMAIL PROTECTED] * *Crosswords 4.1.1 for PalmOS now ARM-native: xwords.sourceforge.net * ** --- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: NEC IT Guy Games.

Eric, If you load webconf.lrp, and /remove/ webconf.lwp and any other .lwp from your system, you'll have a read-only system. (Well, mostly - your kids will still be able to back-up the existing packages... but there's nothing that they could /change/ through the web interface.) The lrcfg.cgi is in the webconf.lwp - and that's what gives you write-access. Longer term, I'm working on adding role-based authentication to webconf, so that a single webconf instance could have both read-only and read-write pages, depending on who you log in as. Of course, in your case, you would probably still want to load an https web server to prevent password snooping. There is a mini-http .lrp that /does/ support https.) Unfortunately, the realities of LEAF development (e.g. its all volunteer) mean long development times, so I am guessing the role-based authentication features not to be ready for several months - just to set expectations. But if that sounds like something that would be helpful in your situation, encouragement always helps smile. Alternatively, could I just go back to using weblet? Webconf is so much more powerful I'm expecting weblet to be deprecated, but perhaps weblet remains the right tool for folks like me? I think using webconf.lrp without the extra plugins might work for you, its at least worth a try. Thanks for your kind words! --- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: NEC IT Guy Games.

Eric, You stated that you're worried about your kids sniffing the wire for your webconf password when you admin your leaf box? If your kids are already that advanced, trying to one-up them technically is going to be a losing game, they will clean your clock. They have more time than you do and more incentive. I suggest reaching detante some other way. Paul --- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: NEC IT Guy Games.

If your kids are already that advanced, trying to one-up them technically is going to be a losing game, they will clean your clock. They have more time than you do and more incentive. I suggest reaching detante some other way. :-) Time and incentive? The same imbalance applies to college admins and students, no? My kids are not that advanced yet, but they could become so. But perhaps I should have phrased the question without reference to them since I'm pretty sure the challenge exists in academic and corporate environments where no family strife need be assumed. What if I were an admin wanting to keep unauthorized employees from messing with the router without forcing myself to always do admin from a restricted set of machines. Doesn't that require the same solution? Can I set up webconf to be read-only (which would let the kids observe how LEAF works), or is weblet the preferred tool for that case?

It's does not look like they're applied: http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/leaf/src/bering-uclibc/apps/linux/patches/ How about getting started with buildtool so you can incorporate those patches into your own kernel? http://leaf.sourceforge.net/doc/guide/buc-buildtool.html __ Do you Yahoo!?
