Teaser : nethserver-shellinabox

still in development, a tip, when you learnt something, never stop, it is so hard to restart :stuck_out_tongue:

I have a minor issue I need time to understand…why a teaser, now I cannot go back :smile:

Hi @stephdl , dokuwiki and fail2ban could be backported from SME?

Whoah!
For me, it’s a killing feature.

No need anymore to juggle with the browser and webssh on the ipad :grinning:

Pretty cool! Can’t wait to see it.

If you have vim, mock, some vm, nothing is impossible.

@davidep @giacomo I have an issue with the sysvinit script of shellinabox, it does a hang when I do the event nethserver-shellinabox-update

the sysvinitscript : https://gist.github.com/stephdl/a0bfdfa522753774a14c

(END) 

the event hangs, until I do a ctrl+C

I have had a similar issue with transmission, I tricked the problem by using an action which was here to restart the service and do the adjust-services, but this time I would understand why instead of turn around the ‘bug’

When I remove the shellinaboxd link to restart, then the event doesn’t hang anymore

Where I can look please ?

This kind of problem is often caused by the daemon itself which doesn’t correctly close all file descriptors.
I suggest you try using an upstart job.

Create a template-metadata /etc/e-smith/templates.metadata/etc/init/shellinabox.conf with something like this:

TEMPLATE_PATH='upstart-job'
OUTPUT_FILENAME='/etc/init/shellinabox.conf'
MORE_DATA={ name => 'shellinaboxd', description => 'Shellinabox daemon', author => 'Your name ', daemon_bin => '/usr/sbin/shellinaboxd', daemon_args => '', respawn => 1, 'expect' => 'fork', stop_on => 'stopping network', start_on => 'started network' }

See /etc/e-smith/templates.metadata/etc/init/httpd-admin.conf for an example.

Go ahead @stephdl I love it! Give us something meaty to tackle

Upstart doesn’t like shellinaboxd :frowning:

The template.metadata

# cat /etc/e-smith/templates.metadata/etc/init/shellinaboxd.conf 
TEMPLATE_PATH='upstart-job'
OUTPUT_FILENAME='/etc/init/shellinaboxd.conf'
MORE_DATA={ name => 'shellinaboxd', description => 'Shellinabox daemon', author => 'Stephane de Labrusse <stephdl@de-labrusse.fr>', daemon_bin => '/usr/sbin/shellinaboxd', daemon_args => '', respawn => 1, 'expect' => 'fork', stop_on => 'stopping network', start_on => 'started network' }

this would be great!

the event stops to hang when I redirect the daemon (in the sysvinit script) to /dev/null…argh

-    daemon $prog -u $USER -g $GROUP --cert=${CERTDIR} --port=${PORT} --background=$pid $OPTS

+   daemon $prog -u $USER -g $GROUP --cert=${CERTDIR} --port=${PORT} --background=$pid $OPTS >/dev/null 2>&1

I smell a bad written daemon :stuck_out_tongue:
