OLD nodus etc / export

Backup of the old nodus configurations are found in /cvs/cds/caltech/nodus_backup .

Some useful locations:

Old apache configurations

cd /cvs/cds/caltech/nodus_backup/etc/apache2

iptables

We want nodus to make several ports available from Martian and internet. Otherwise, the access to these ports are just rejected. To enable the ports, allow this, we need to run the following commands. 8080: non-secure elog, 8081: secure-elog, 30889: web service

sudo iptables -I INPUT 5 -i enp1s0f0 -p tcp --dport 8080 -m state --state NEW,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT
sudo iptables -I INPUT 6 -i enp1s0f1 -p tcp --dport 8080 -m state --state NEW,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT
sudo iptables -I INPUT 7 -i enp1s0f0 -p tcp --dport 30889 -m state --state NEW,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT
sudo iptables -I INPUT 8 -i enp1s0f1 -p tcp --dport 30889 -m state --state NEW,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT
sudo iptables -I INPUT 9 -i enp1s0f0 -p tcp --dport 8081 -m state --state NEW,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT 
sudo iptables -I INPUT 10 -i enp1s0f1 -p tcp --dport 8081 -m state --state NEW,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT 

Here we need to specify two ethernet interfaces (enp1s0f0 and enp1s0f1). They could be checked by ifconfig

ifconfig -a

To check the current IPTable setup, the following command is useful

sudo iptables -vnL INPUT --line

The output of this should look like this

To delete an entry (e.g. #3 in INPUT section)

sudo iptables -D INPUT 3

- This command makes the change permanent.This command has already been run.

iptables-save > /etc/sysconfig/iptables

Apache

Global settings

- To work with the server daemon, use systemctl command.

sudo systemctl (start|restart|stop|status) httpd

- All apache setting can be found in /etc/httpd .

- The main config file is /etc/httpd/conf/ . This takes care the global setting of the web service.

- PHP is required for dokuwikis. So it was installed. We need more careful investigation of the php configuration later.

sudo yum -y install php

SSL

- /etc/httpd/conf.d/ has sub config files. Only ssl.conf was reviewed. This config has the following line.

SSLPassPhraseDialog exec:/etc/httpd/passphrase.sh

And the corresponding file can be found as /etc/httpd/passphrase.sh .

- SSL Certificates were copied from the old backup. They are located in /etc/httpd/ssl. So each https sites should have the following directives in each VirtualHost.

SSLCertificateFile /etc/httpd/ssl/nodus.ligo.caltech.edu.crt
SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/httpd/ssl/nodus.ligo.caltech.edu.key

Site files

- The actual web site settings are found in /etc/httpd/site-enabled . This folder should have symbolic links to the corresponding files in site-available. The important files are elog.conf and nodus30889_secure.conf for now. SVN setting should be added later.

- The site on the port 30889 is configured by nodus30889_secure.conf. This is a normal web server looking at the files in /export/home, not in /users/public_html!. One who wants to add a folder to the web is to make a link to the folder in /export/home and add a corresponding Directory entry in nodus30889_secure.conf.

- elog.conf takes care of redirecting and proxy of 8081 (https) to 8080. The line Header add Strict-Transport-Security "max-age=0" is important so that the client browsers does not remember 8080 as https.

- svn.conf takes care of svn. In this file, the location of the authentication files are speficied.

    AuthUserFile /export/svn/.svn-auth-file
    AuthzSVNAccessFile /export/svn/svn.authz

These files are copied from the old svn backup.

elogd

- The new executable was installed (via RPM by Rana) at /usr/local/sbin. The nominal setting files are in /export/elog/elog-common.

- The current (best) elog staring script is /export/elog/startELOGD.sh. This does not kill running process. Some sophisticated mechanism (as before) will be useful.

- Riddle: elogd does not want to use the themes in /export/elog/elog-common no matter how this directory is specified for the resource dir. The only workable setup right now is to speficy the resource directory as

Resource dir = /usr/local/elog

in the main config file /export/elog/elog-common/elogd.cfg.

SVN

Installation

SVN installation

sudo yum install subversion mod_dav_svn

Repository migration

To create a repository from an existing repository: We can't just copy the files. We need to use a dump file created by svnadmin. This can be done for an existing svn repository in the new system.

Dumping

cd /home/export/svn
sudo svnadmin dump ./ > ../svndump

Create a new repository

cd /home/export
sudo mv svn svn_old
sudo svnadmin create svn

Loading

cd /home/export
sudo svnadmin load ./svn < svndump

Apache setting

- See above (Site files).

svn server daemon

- To launch svn server run the following command

sudo svnserve -d

This allows us to access to the usual svn command from remote and https://nodus.ligo.caltech.edu:30889/svn/.

websvn

- Download the latest distribution

cd /cvs/cds/caltech/users/public_html
wget http://websvn.tigris.org/files/documents/1380/49056/websvn-2.3.3.tar.gz
tar zxvf websvn-2.3.3.tar.gz

- Expose the downloaded file as "websvn"

cd /export/home
ln -s /cvs/cds/caltech/users/public_html/websvn-2.3.3 ./websvn

- Edit configuration to specify the location of the repository

cd websvn/include
mv distconfig.php config.php
emacs -nw config.php

Add the following line right next to "// Local repositories (without and with optional group)"

$config->addRepository('40m SVN', 'file:///export/svn/', NULL, 'svn40m', '0p2iCs');
