[leaf-user] [Fwd: [Shorewall-users] WebGUI Scripts announcement]
This is my second attempt to forward this announcement to the Leaf User list -- the first one is being held for moderation and my experience with this list is that posts held for moderation sit for a week and then are rejected without comment -Tom Original Message Subject: [Shorewall-users] WebGUI Scripts announcement Date: Wed, 9 Mar 2005 16:25:58 +0100 From: Andrea Galmacci - awd <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Reply-To: Mailing List for Shorewall Users <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Shorewall Users Mailing List <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Dear Shorewall Users, having noticed that the request for a WebGUI is growing, after a very short conversation I've had with Tom, I'd like to let you all evaluate the Web interface to Shorewall I've written, integrating the original weblet package made available for the LRP project. Preamble Thank you Tom for every nice thing - Shorewall included - you have taugth and given us Features (or limitations: it depends on your point of view...) * the GUI is made of shell scripts -- no other programming language, no extra software to install (well, system utilities only) * runs on almost any httpd server - tested on many LRP specific servers such as sh-httpd (shell based as well), mini-httpd, thttpd, and - of course - apache * the web server doesn't need to be root in order to get write privileges to Shorewall files * .htaccess ready * edit Shorewall main configuration files, executes Shorewall commands (start, stop, restart, status, ...) * shows system/Shorewall logs * multi-language ready (english/italian) * IE/Firefox compatible Hosting system prerequisites (besides Shorewall specifics) * sudo utility (usually part of all distro, anyhow available at http://www.courtesan.com/sudo/) Curious enough? URL: http://62.110.196.251 User: awdwall Password: gogetit Any comments, critics, suggestions, opinions are more than welcome. Support Please don't even think I'll be able to react to your requests/bug reports as 'someone' ;-) else does (altough I'll try to do the best my competence - and the time available - will allow). I'm not a real guru and most of what I've done to make those script working - starting from the basic knowledge of *nix - is self-taught so please put into consideration a good profusion of patience from your side -- this is my first open source experience. Actions What you'll play with is a stable 1.4.2 code installed over a Bering 1.2 distro an mounted on a embedded system -- activities are undergoing to move the code to a 'full' distro (now testing on a RH 9 with standard RPMs). I think that after Tom stated that Shorewall will remain pretty stable in terms of structure for a reasonable long period of time, there are good chaches to make the script compatible with the current release. Depending on the number of requests I will receive, the package will be made available to the Shorewall community under the GNU GPL license -- expected release date: Mar 31, 2005 That's all, folks!

Andrea Have you had the chance to look at the webconf package for LEAF. Would you think it would be difficult to port to this environment?

Re: [leaf-user] [Fwd: [Shorewall-users] WebGUI Scripts announcement]
Erich, I have to admit that webconf is great -- the reason because I've not noticed it is that I didn't find suitable to focus on extra small distro - like the ones allowed by uClibC - due to the cheap opportunities offered by today's CF -- storage space is no more an issue. It would be great to give new life to the classic Bering branch - I can offer some contribution for the docs even if my 'personal interpretation' of the english language should sound 'too personal'. I'm waiting for both webconf & mini_httpd (SSL ready would be a plus) for Bering glibc. Let's resuscitate it!

The only reasons for posts being held follow: Post from an email address not subscribed to the list. Only messages with a content-type of "text/plain" or "multipart/signed" are automatically posted to the list. All other content-types, and base64 encoded posts are held for administrative action.

I had to temporarily reconfigure it to forward in-line. I used to have restrictive policies like that for the Shorewall lists but found that simply making them closed to non-members solves the problem without the hassle of having to moderate. -Tom -- Tom Eastep\ Nothing is foolproof to a sufficiently talented fool Shoreline, \ http://shorewall.net Washington USA \ [EMAIL PROTECTED] PGP Public Key \ https://lists.shorewall.net/teastep.pgp.key --- SF email is sponsored by - The IT Product Guide Read honest & candid reviews on hundreds of IT Products from real users.

Tom, SourceForge is still using mailman 2.0.9. Until that fact changes, our mailing lists will remain in their current configuration. Note: I'm willing to let someone else take this responsibility. I have no illusions that I'm a great list manager. -- Mike Noyes http://sourceforge.net/users/mhnoyes/ SF.net Projects: ffl, leaf, phpwebsite, phpwebsite-comm, sitedocs --- SF email is sponsored by - The IT Product Guide Read honest & candid reviews on hundreds of IT Products from real users.

Yes, I know -- I'm still the list manager for the old Seawall list. I have set it up for member posts only and I clean out the spam periodically. -Tom -- Tom Eastep\ Nothing is foolproof to a sufficiently talented fool Shoreline, \ http://shorewall.net Washington USA \ [EMAIL PROTECTED] PGP Public Key \ https://lists.shorewall.net/teastep.pgp.key --- SF email is sponsored by - The IT Product Guide Read honest & candid reviews on hundreds of IT Products from real users.
