:-))) Win32 is name of API used in Win9X and WinNT ... So, of course, steps for
win32 must be applicable for WinNT as well. Just one subtle problem: Ralf does
not have Win9X or WinNT (AFAIK) and thus all steps are not checked by him ...

Bingo!

I was set up with domainname yyy.zzz and hostname xxx (and Apache's
ServerName xxx.yyy.zzz) but setting hostname to xxx.yyy.zzz made it all
fly. I used to be paranoid, but now I only worry that I'm not paranoid
enough... (-:

RE: SSL variables running APACHE on Windows NT 4.0

1999-07-23 Thread Ruetzel, Arnold

Hi Ralf,
it's me again. I don't understand the use of ap_hook_use and how it would
solve my problem. In my modules "URI to filename translation" phase I'd like
to call the ssl's module handler "ssl_hook_fixup" which is setting up all
SSL variables so the would be availbale to me immediately after the call to
ssl_hook_fixup returns. Is there a way to do that right now? 
I read the documentation provided in ap_hook.c but I don't understand the
workings I also would appreciate a short explanation of how ap_hook_use
works. Must the hook specified in ap_hook_use be configured and registered
in mod_ssl before it can be used?   
Thanks a lot for your help.

When you looked into mod_rewrite, you would have found:

#ifdef EAPI
ap_hook_use("ap::mod_rewrite::lookup_variable",
AP_HOOK_SIG3(ptr,ptr,ptr),
AP_HOOK_DECLINE(NULL),
&result, r, var);
#endif

A similar call in your module will give you the results.

Hmmm... mod_ssl currently does it in the "correct/intended" phase.  But
sure,
it shouldn't harm to provide them earlier. I've to admit that I currently
forgot what the reason was that have not done this already. I'll think about
this again

The hooks _IS_ registered by mod_ssl, so you just have to use it with
ap_hook_use. Try it out in your module the same way mod_rewrite does it. It
internally calls the mod_ssl lookup function which is also used in the fixup
handler. So you don't have to run the fixup handler manually.

No. You just call hook "ap::mod_rewrite::lookup_variable" to find out varible
value instead of standard Apache way. That's all. What's so problematic here ???
Why you are so inclined to setting up SSL variables ?

Probing Client-side certs in PHP

1999-07-23 Thread Michael Bartlett

Hi All.

I need to do login authentication using information stored in a class 2
certificate. Basically the directory of the web site (apache) requires a
class 2 cert. The certs are Verisign Onsite certificates which have 3 custom
fields in them.

So what I need to do is probe the cert that is presented to the server using
PHP and take the uid from the cert and authenticate against a mysql database
and log the user on.

I've done this before using IIS and ASP *shudder* using source code that
looks like this :

<%
 response.write(Request.ClientCertificate("SUBJECTO") & "")
 response.write(Request.ClientCertificate("SUBJECTOU"))
%>

But nobody on the php lists seems to know anything about certs, nor the
people on the apache lists.

Help would be much appreciated.

Regards

Mike Bartlett

These stuff is provided by mod_ssl in the SSL_CLIENT_CERT_XX environment
variables.  See the mod_ssl documentation for details.

The file I create on the disk is not really snoopable because it is unlinked
after creation. Therefore, it has no attachment to the directory system and
can't referenced with a filename. I like the idea of creating an in memory file
and I've heard of that before, but it's not really needed. I'd be surprised if
any of my temporary is actually written out to disk - it should all be in the
buffer cache.
