If you want apache to be able to grant access based on computer name you must be sure that revers DNS lookups for those machines works. >From the point of view of the apache webserver all requests come from an ip address. If you use a hostname in an access directive apache will perform a reverse lookup on that ip address, and compares the name it gets with the directive. So what you first need to check is if reverse dns works. Be warned however that having apache check dns with every request will incur a performance penalty. However if convenience is more important than performance this can be something that one can live with...

The server is doing exactly what you ask it to do. When you ask it to "redirect" to another server it will respond to client requests by telling the client to go get the content somewhere else. As a result the browser then makes a new request and the URL in the address bar changes. If you want to hide the backend tomcat server what you need to do is: a) proxy requests, not redirect them. b) configure the tomcat server itself not to use its own URL, but that of the proxy whenever generating a redirect.

Advice please? It says that the "client", (ie. you, your browser) was denied access to the resource by something in your server configuration. Now, I suspect that it has something to do whith how you configured php. Probably apache looks at the file, notices it is php, knows that it has a handler for it, and thus looks if you have permission to execute scripts from that directory. Probably you don't.

You can have apache listen to multiple IPs or Ports. Just add the necessary "Listen" statements to your config, and than a virtualhost for each SSL host. Personally I think that until SNI adoption gets more widespread the best option is 1) if you have the IPs to spare, as it doesn't have any more config overhead than the other options and is going to work as expected.

[us...@httpd] Centralla managing a collection of apache hosts.
Hello all, My current POE uses the ZEUS Webserver quite extensively. Zeus has some advantages from the point of veiw of daily management, but is not free. We are about to implement a new CMS system that depends heavily on a custom module that the supplier can provide in an apache compatible form, or an IIS compatible form. This would replace an existing system that runs on the ZEUS platform. The problem I now have is that our department head is not that happy to replace Zeus with Apache. The argument is that he considers Zeus to have suerpior management features. To a certain extent he has a point, as with ZEus you have on single Web Gui where you can change configuration settings, that then get deployed to a whole cluster of servers. Zeus is also has a very good updating mechanism. So currently he is demanding that the new CMS project delivers a comparable management solution for managing Apache if it wants us to consider deploying the new Apache based CMS. I'm currently a bit affraid that in the end we will get IIS forced upon us in stead. So my question: Does there exist a good management application for Apache, free or commercial that will give us: - A Web GUI to make changes to the config. - A deployment mechanism so that changes only have to be made once, and are then deployed to x Servers. Free would be nice, but commercial would be acceptable too. For people familiar with the Zeus Webserver: How do I get the same operational comfort with Apache?

What you are missing is, amongst others, that the message you get is a "Warming ("[warn]") not an error. There are two situations which can trigger this warning: - A NameVirtualHost without any blocks. - A second NameVirtualHost statement identical to an existing one. The warning serves the purpose of warning you that you might have overlooked something, but it is not an error. Having a duplicate NameVirtualHost statement does not cause any malfunctioning.

Have a look at the HTTP traffic coming from the browser When apache is used as a forward proxy it will only forward requests to the backend, and then forward the responses back to the browser. It does not modify the response. If the backend sends a webpage that contains a link that points directly at the backend than you have a problem. Basically when you have a forward-proxy / backend combination you need to configure the backend so that it knows that is should return correct URLs that point to the frontend.

Yahoo still uses it, Google used it before. The problem is that with the nature of HTTP having only the login dialog protected by https is really rather pointless. The HTTP protocol is "atomic". There is no such thing as a "logged in user" or a "session" defined in the protocol. That means that whatever is used to link a request with a particular authenticated user is send with every request. That is why an authenticated session should be protected by https the whole time, not just during login. Just consider the following: - You direct a user to a login form. He enters username and password, gets authenticated and receives a session cookie from the server. - This session cookie is sent with each subsequent request, so that the requests can be associated with an authenticated user. - Someone intercepts this cookie by eavesdropping on the line. With this cookie this person can now impersonate the user without knowing the user's username or password... You must realise that whatever data a browser sends to associate a request with an authenticated session is basically equivalent to authentication data. That is why it should never be send in the clear. And that is why session cookies that are obtained after logging in over https should have the secure flag set. It is possible that Yahoo doesn't do this, but then it is entirely possible that Yahoo doesn't care about its users... Krist -- krist.vanbes...@gmail.com kr...@vanbesien.org Bremgarten b.

It's not needed (as this virtualhost only gets https requests anyway) and confuses. If you want to make sure that people who accidentaly land on the http site get redirected to https you need to put a redirect in the http virtual host. Secondly: Look at what your backend produces. It is very well possible that it passes html pages back to the client that contain http:// style URLs. RewriteRule only operates on request URLs, ProxyPassReverse only on redirects passed back.

What you need to do is look at the configuration of whatever it is you use on port 9090. You must configure that piece of software to issue redirects that use the right hostname. Often there is a "base url" or "base hostname" or something similar that you can set in your config. When running an application server behing a reverse proxy (a very common scenario) you should configure the application server as if it was running without a reverse proxy, as if it was the front end server. If you can't do that there are workarounds in volving proxypassrevers or even mod_proxy_html, but these are complicated. Try solving the problem at the source first.

However, you can probably make it compliant by restricting the cyphers it will use as a client. That is why I suggested you look in to the possibilitiess the SSLProxy* directives offer. If you consult the mod_ssl documentation you will see that there is a directive SSLProxyCipherSuite, that you can use to limit the ciphers offered in the HELLO packet.

[us...@httpd] How to remove an environment variable...
Hello all, I have a PHP content management system, Drupal on a apache 2.2 server. For the moment we use a Drupal add on that uses the webserver's own authentication. So I have set up apache basic auth, and Drupal asumes that whenever a request comes with the "REMOTE_USER" variable set, the user is authenticated, and uses the value of REMOTE_USER to determine who it's talking with. Now for test purposes I want to offer a way to look at the site as non authenticated users would see it, but without (for now) removing the authentication. As the website is still under development I don't want to allow unauthenticated access yet. I thought I could do that by just have Apache remove the REMOTE_USER header. like this: UnsetEnv REMOTE_USER However, this does not work. Also setting REMOTE_USER to something else doesn't work either. Setting other variables works though. What are my options here? How can I remove REMOTE_USER?

Re: [us...@httpd] What is wrong with this RewriteCond?
Enable RewriteLog, with a high RewriteLogLevel. That way you see in great detail exactly what is happening. You'll see what matches are tried, against what strings, what matches are successfull, what rules are considered. Etc... BTW, but this is advanced stuff, there is a trick to make whole blocks of RewriteRules depend on one Condition. 1) You can "Chain" rules together. That way a whole block is evaluated, or skipped based on wether the first one matches. This is quite handy with a dummy rule... (Note how the last rule in your block doesn't have the "C" Flag, and your first rule must be a "dummy" one that always matches, or your RewriteCond never gets evaluated.) # First block, executed when cookie not set. RewriteCond %{HTTP_COOKIE} !^.*test=test.*$ RewriteRule -* - [C] RewriteRule /inbox$ /index.php [C] RewriteRule /compose-mail$ /index.php # Second block, executed when cookie set. RewriteCond %{HTTP_COOKIE} ^.*test=test.*$ RewriteRule -* - [C] RewriteRule /inbox$ http://127.0.0.1:22131/ [P,C] RewriteRule /inbox/(.+) http://127.0.0.1:22131/$1 [P,C] RewriteRule /(js/qui.+) http://127.0.0.1:22131/$1 [P,C] RewriteRule /(css/qui.+) http://127.0.0.1:22131/$1 [P,C] RewriteRule /js/soundmanager2-nodebug-jsmin.js http://127.0.0.1:22131/js/soundmanager2-nodebug-jsmin.js [P,C] RewriteRule /sound/soundmanager2.swf http://127.0.0.1:22131/sound/soundmanager2.swf [P,C] RewriteRule /images/favicon.png http://127.0.0.1:22131/images/favicon.png [P,C] RewriteRule /(e/.+) http://127.0.0.1:22131/$1 [P,C] RewriteRule /compose-mail$ /proxy/ [C] RewriteRule /compose-mail/(.+)$ /proxy/$1 2) You can use the "S=x" flag, which tells the RewriteEngine to skip the next x rules, togethet with a dummy rule. Like this: # Skip the next two rules when the cookie matches. RewriteCond %{HTTP_COOKIE} ^.*test=test.*$ RewriteRule .* - [S=3] # These rules are executed when the cookie doesn't match. RewriteRule /inbox$ /index.php [C] RewriteRule /compose-mail$ /index.php RewriteRule .* - [S=10] # These rules are executed when the cookie matches. RewriteRule /inbox$ http://127.0.0.1:22131/ [P,C] RewriteRule /inbox/(.+) http://127.0.0.1:22131/$1 [P,C] RewriteRule /(js/qui.+) http://127.0.0.1:22131/$1 [P,C] RewriteRule /(css/qui.+) http://127.0.0.1:22131/$1 [P,C] RewriteRule /js/soundmanager2-nodebug-jsmin.js http://127.0.0.1:22131/js/soundmanager2-nodebug-jsmin.js [P,C] RewriteRule /sound/soundmanager2.swf http://127.0.0.1:22131/sound/soundmanager2.swf [P,C] RewriteRule /images/favicon.png http://127.0.0.1:22131/images/favicon.png [P,C] RewriteRule /(e/.+) http://127.0.0.1:22131/$1 [P,C] RewriteRule /compose-mail$ /proxy/ [C] RewriteRule /compose-mail/(.+)$ /proxy/$1 # Processing continues here. With these flags it's quite possible to make quite complex conditional structures. I once inherited a server where every request was checked against 200+ rules.

The documentation is quite clear that you can have multiple RewriteCond's per RewriteRule, but that a RewriteCond only applies to one RewriteRule. I had to cut may answer short, as my train was arriving and I had to get out :-) So here is the rest: I asume that you have references to two CSS files in your HTML pages, and that you want to give different versions of these files to different browsers. Now, since a RewriteCond applies only to one rule, you need to repeat it. You don't really need the L flag, and if the files are on the same host, you don't need to add that either. So I asume the following would work: RewriteEngine on RewriteLog /var/log/httpd-rewrite.log RewriteLogLevel 2 RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} .Windows.*Firefox\/3.* RewriteRule ^/styles/progclean.css/styles/winff3/progclean.css RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} .Windows.*Firefox\/3.* RewriteRule ^/styles/terms.css/styles/winff3/terms.css RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} .MSIE\ 7.* RewriteRule ^/styles/progclean.css/styles/winie7/progclean.css RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} .MSIE\ 7.* RewriteRule ^/styles/terms.css /styles/winie7/terms.css RewriteRule ^/styles/progclean.css /styles/unsupported/progclean.css RewriteRule ^/styles/terms.css /styles/unsupported/terms.css I hope this helps, Krist -- krist.vanbes...@gmail.com kr...@vanbesien.org Bremgarten b.

I asume that since your revers proxy does some content mangling that your clients talk plain http to your proxy? A few thinks to look at: - Does your Squid proxy allow the "CONNECT" http method? - Is apache configured to function as an SSL client? You need at least to enable SSLProxyEngine, and define an SSLProxyCACertificatePath. In the second case you need to add the following to your config: # turn on SSL proxying. SSLProxyEngine On # to tell Apache where to find CA certificates to check remote server # certificates with: # (You can choose yourself where you put these certificates) SSLProxyCACertificatePath /path/to/ca/certificates. Then in this path you need to put the CA certificate(s) used to sign the certificate(s) used by the server(s) you communicate with. If you want to talk to a server that uses a "self signed" certificate you will need to put it in this dir too. Once you've done that you need to run "c_rehash" in that directory. c_rehash is part of a standard openssl distribution. c_rehash creates hashed aliases in this dir. Apache needs these.

You can safely ignore IPv6 if you're not using it. Even if your linux machine enables IPv6 by default, and starts and IPv6 interface you don't have to worry about things breaking because of it. If your router doesn't route IPv6 you still don't have to worry about some devices in your network bringing up IPv6 interfaces. Linux disrtro maintainers include IPv6 because the aim is to provide a kernel that everyone can use, without having to recompile. Another aim is to incourage people to actually start using IPv6. ISPs will soon start to provide their customers with routers that support IPv6, so this is in my opinion a wise decision. It's a bit like TV manucfaturers including a DVB-T tuner in their offerings, even though most people don't have a need for it, yet.

IPv6 offers a lot more than just more IP addresses. One of the goals is also to improve network autoconfiguration so network devices can truly be "plug and play". Wich is a good feature to have for people who don't want to be network admins, but still have a complex home network.

Is there any > tricks to configure multiple vhosts with SSL ? Kindly show me the way. This is probably one of the most asked question on this list... For a long time the answer to the problem was "you can't". The problem is that in order to know from which virtual host to serve content a webserver must inspect the "host" header. This is part of the http request. However the SSL handshake takes place before any http request is initiated. In order to complete the handshake the webserver needs to know which SSL certificate to use. Since the websever can't yet know which virtual host content is being requested from it uses the certificate of the first host. It's really a limit of the protocol, not the server. However the latest version of the HTTPS protocol includes SNI, which permits a client to transmit to the host the name of the virtualhost it wants to contact during the SSL handshake. So what you need to do is make sure you have the very latest apache, compiled with the latest openssl libraries, and use a recent webbrowser. Than you will be able to do this.

[us...@httpd] When it rains it pours...
So I get a call from one of our developpers. Turns out that the "UT" interface wasn't working properly anymore. The UT interface is basically a SOAP service running on a Tomcat instance. The purpose it to allow smartphones to do things like get Call History etc.. by sending Soap requests to this interface. Recently the functionality of this service has been extended to provide for a new type of nifty fix-line phone with touch screen that Swisscom wants to inflict on the market next year. But anyway. It had become sluggish, and the usual solution is to just bounce the Tomcat. So I log in and do: sudo /etc/init.d/tomcat5 stop. I press enter and then the power in the office fails... Lasted an hour before we had power and network back, and I could ssh back in to the server in order to start the tomcat again... I am going to look in to making the whole UT interface more robust. And we are also looking in to getting a UPS for our coffeemachine, because not being able to have a coffee when an outage condems you to unproductivity is next to unbearable...

You need to give us some more information. What have you done to make sure that the right IP is associated with the right SSL instance and certificate? This does not happen automatically.

[us...@httpd] Mordac is working for our company...
For those who don't know who Mordac the Preventer is: http://dilbert.com/strips/comic/2007-11-16/ I'm "SPOC" this week. Single Point Of Contact. That means that all issues first land on my desk. One of our Windows Sysadmins (the unfortunate guys looking after our IP TV infrastructure management decided to build on a windows platform...) came to me with a problem. He needs to install a couple of servers and our DHCP server appears to be down. We have a quite elegant way of bootstrapping machines here. All our machines come with network boot capabilities and are eiter connected to a console server, or to a management modules that allows remote console access. So we usually let servers be shipped directly to the datacenter. The datacentergnomes mount the servers in racks, connect up the ethernet interfaces and tell us where they've put the server, and what switch ports all the interfaces have been connected too. We then can just ask: Connect port # 123-45 (where the ILO module has been connected too) to the management net and 123-46 to the install net. Both have DHCP servers. We have a web interface where we can tell the DHCP server what IP address to provision. The MAC adresses we get from our docs. The install net is configure for PXE boot, and we can, again via the web interface tell the DHCP server which boot image to give a server that requests one. So install is easy. Step 1) Provision DHCP server with the mac adresses of the ILO module and the first ethernet interface respectively. Step 2) Tell the DHCP server which install server you want to use. Step 3) Log in to the ILO and powercycle the machine. When the PXE boot completes you get a nice menu (in the case of our linux install server, don't know how our windows install server looks), where you can select what Linux distro and profile you want installed. Step 4) get a cup of coffee. Step 5) log in to your new server and verify that all is right. We install 10s of servers in just an afternoon this way. But ofcourse, if the DHCP server is down this doesn't work... Si I try to ssh in to the DHCP server. This times out. I ssh in to the ILO instead, and find out that the server is running fine, but eth0 has a status of "link down". So I call the datacenter. After being patched through to different persons I finally learn the the reason our dhcp server has no network connection is the the install VLAN has been shut down. At the request of security. However nobody found it necessary to inform us about this. I tell this a collegue. Another overhears us. "But I have to install 18 machines next Tuesday?". Before I know it the whole floor is standing around us, engaged in lively discussion about how our compelx organisation is gradually making productive work impossible... Anyway. Time to look for a new job maybe... Krist -- krist.vanbes...@gmail.com kr...@vanbesien.org Bremgarten b. Bern, Switzerland -- A: It reverses the normal flow of conversation.

It doesn't harm to have this NameVirtualHost directive. But it isn't needed either. Hence my remark. Alls NameVirtualHost does is tell the server to look at the Server header when receiving requests on the IP/Port combination mentioned, in order to distinguish between different virtualhosts on the same IP/Port. When you only have one virtualhost on the IP/Port combination you thus don't need this directive. Since you will normally only have one Virtualhost on the IP/Port combination you use for HTTPS you don't need the NameVirtualHost statement. Unless you are bleeding edge re SSL...

A couple of notes: - Using to protect a resource on the local filesystem is a absolutely bad idea. Your script might be accessible via another URL. - Your rewrite rule does indeed do the correct redirection, but will only do this after authentication. This because that is how you've configured it. You've told your server to require authentication from anyone accessing /test and this your server does. Authentication happens very early in request processing, before rewriting. A better way: ScriptAlias /test /usr/lib/cgi-bin/viewvc.cgi RewriteEngine on RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off RewriteRule /test.* https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [R] SSLRequireSSL AuthType Basic AuthName "requires a password" AuthUserFile /home/svn/PASSWD Require valid-user HTH, Krist -- krist.vanbes...@gmail.com kr...@vanbesien.org Bremgarten b.

You can use Proxy and ProxyPass directives in a container, but the syntax changes. As the docs mention: "When used inside a section, the first argument is omitted and the local directory is obtained from the ." So this: ProxyPass /getit http://another-host.com/getit ProxyPassReverse /getit http://another-host.com/getit And this: ProxyPass http://another-host.com/getit ProxyPassReverse http://another-host.com/getit Are both equivalent... > I would like however, that *before* the above proxying to the back-end takes > place, such requests would be subject to AAA on the front-end server.

So this would have to be: http://another-host.com/getit> # AAA directives So you can't really combine them with your Proxy directive... In your case though I would use a block. Makes it easier for the next person reading your config to understand what is going on. So then your config would become something like: RewriteRule ^/cgi-bin/script.pl$ /getit [P] ProxyPass /getit http://another-host.com/getit ProxyPassReverse /getit http://another-host.com/getit http://another-host.com/getit> # Your AAA directives go here... This aproach has the advantage that you are actually protecting the _target_ of your rewrite (which is what I asume you want), and not the original URL. So even if you proxy other URLs to your backend they will also require authentication. BTW, you could combine your rewrite and your proxypass statements: RewriteRule ^/cgi-bin/script.pl$ /getit http://another-host.com/getit [P] HTH, Krist -- krist.vanbes...@gmail.com kr...@vanbesien.org Bremgarten b.
