[volunteergrid2-l] Making our web-facing gateways NOT a rope around our necks

[Billy Earney]

Maybe I'm way off base with this, but what about setting up the tahoe config
for sftp access, then using fusessh and mounting it to a directory somewhere
on your system, and then using some other app for public access?

Here's the ticket I initiated 14 months ago:

http://tahoe-lafs.org/trac/tahoe-lafs/ticket/860

 

(davidsarah filed it on my behalf.)

 

8 months ago, it was changed to milestone, "eventually."

 

Until this "major" bug has been alleviated, we will not be able to share
files with anyone not a member of the VolunteerGrid2. We'll have to jump
through the hoops of wrapping any web-facing gateway in a proxy -- which is
only going to be easily accomplished if we already have Squid or Apache (or
other services) already running on the nodes.

 

It might be helpful if more people created Trac accounts and commented on
this ticket -- I don't know.
