RE: Question regarding Active Directory/LDAP

2002-06-05 Thread Tomasz . Ciolek

You be in rela trouble here. Active Directory uses a conglomeration of
Kerberos 5 with MS ciphers and LDAP

As for LDAP, I think its straightforward - look up the standard and get one
bit at a time. Perhaps see the SMABA 3.x  code and what it does (its a late
beta stuff).

What are you trying to do with the active directory information?

 unfamiliar with the directory structure in active directory. 
 i have one set

 The content type header is correctly set to application/pdf. 
 I even tested with a UNIX command line utility called webgrab 
 which dumps the entire server response (including headers) to stdout. 
 I can't find anything wrong with the server output. And yes, I tried
 it on another box to make sure it wasn't my system's fault.
 
 It's got to be something that the Netscape plugin doesn't like. I just
 uninstalled Acrobat and did my dynamic PDF page with all 
 three browsers.
 Without Acrobat, they all just prompted me to save it as a 
 file. All three
 files that I generated with each browser are identical!!! And 
 once Acrobat
 was re-installed, they all opened just fine in the 
 stand-alone Acrobat.

  Jeff,
  
  Do you know that the correct mime type is being sent back 
 to the browser?
  If there is no known mime type, I believe that IE makes 
 guesses about what
  program to launch a file with based on its extension, but 
 NS 4 doesn't seem
  to do this.
  
  If you haven't solved it yet, check the mime type being 
 served, and check
  the associated programs for this mime type in Netscape.
  
  Otherwise, check the log file to see if the requests from 
 IE and NS are
  different.  Is one http 1.0 and http 1.1?
  
  Sorry if I'm not offering any solutions, but hopefully 
 these are some
  additional routes for investigation.

   I'm running out of hair to pull out here...
  
   My ultimate goal is to server dynamically generated
   PDF documents generated with iText. I've got it working
   just fine with MSIE. However, I was just getting blank
   pages with Netscape (and it wasn't even showing the toolbar
   for Acrobat). With NS6 I could at least see that it started
   an AcroRd32.exe process, but NS4 didn't even get that far.
  
   So, I did some tests to rule out some variables. I grabbed
   a handful of pre-generated PDF files and stuck them on
   my Apache 1.3.23 server. All browsers could display the
   PDFs just fine.  Then I set up Tomcat 4.0.3 to server the
   same files directly without going through Apache. MSIE worked,
   but both NS browsers gave a blank page with no Acrobat plugin
   toolbar. Again NS6 managed to start an Acrobat process, NS4
   didn't.
  
   My production environment is Apache 1.3.23 and Tomcat 4.0.3
   connected with mod_jk.

RE: Tomact + apache + warp (mod_webapp) + SSL

2002-03-20 Thread Tomasz . Ciolek

Hi All
 UPS¡¡. I have spoken with Pier Fumagalli 
 (http://nagoya.apache.org/~pier/): Apache2.0/Tomcat4.0  with 
 mod_webapp and SSL are not fully implemented. SSL attributes can't be
retrieval 
 from servlet :-(

To clarify:

I am using Tomcat 4.0.2, apache 1.3.22, mod_warp, mod_ssl. What I want to do
is to run an ssl session to the apache server on a particular IP/port,
submit my servelt data and have the tomcat do the magic on it and spew data
back out to the client. I am using apache because I know how to make it bind
to a host:port and only accept some connections on that port.

Error that I get when running apache with the SSL _on_ is:


WebApp: Error 500
(File: pr_warp.c Line: 438) Invalid packet 68 


It works fine when SSL is turned off. Running another instace of apache is
not an option. I am not splitting my apache configs on a production machine.
This should work out of the virtual server anyhow...


Question is: Am I better off to run tomcat 4.0.2 natively with SSL on that
host:port and 

a) How do I bind it to a specific host:port ONLY (I cannot afford to have it
listening on all host for connections, I am running a multihomed (many ip's
reside on this box) machine) 

b) How do I set up the SSL stuff? What format are the certs/keys in? Where
do they live? Do all of them live is the same file? Will en existing PEM
formated cert work? Can I adjust the Cipher lists? etc etc etc. Information
is quite scarce.

I have answers to the above for apache, apache + JServ also works.

Tomact + apache + warp (mod_webapp) + SSL

2002-03-19 Thread Tomasz . Ciolek


Hi all

Does any one have an idea how to make mod_webapp work properly with a apache
mod_ssl vitual server?

Here is the scenario:

I have a web application that can run in either native tomcat or with apache
as a fron end. I use mod webapp to provide a mapping of the application to
the apache server (ala old style JServ) and then it talks to tomcat on port
8008. I was under the impression that this is how it works: 

apache gets a request for a mapped web application so that it looks like
this: https://somehost/app?appdata on the client end, picks up the
app-data and then shoves it down port 8008 on localhost (thats where the
warp connector is told to go) and then returns the data to the client via
SSL. SO it would look like this:

client --- HTTPS  --- Apache -- warp connection to locahost:8008 --
tomcat

Is this possible or am I better of running native tomcat on port 443 and not
bother with apache at all?

regards
Tomasz Ciolek
