Thanks for all the positive feedback on webconf so far. There is a
suggestion that webconf.lrp (core) be just a weblet replacement, and the
current "expert" menu set be moved into webconf.lwp.
The reason is situations where an admin wants to give a customer "read-only"
rights to web pages for monitoring; but the customer shouldn't have access to
"fix" [pronounced: break] the installed router.
This makes sense to me; it means webconf.lrp is the replacement for weblet;
webconf.lwp is the value-add for most "do-it-yourself" SOHO users; and
extra .lwp's add further functionality.
Here's a proposed breakup of the existing webconf.lrp (beta 2)
keyboard.lwp -> keyboard.cgi (basic menu set)
dropbear.lwp -> dropbear.cgi (basic menu set)
webconf.lwp -> lrcfg.cgi (expert configuration pages)
-> lrcfg.pkgdisks.cgi ("Destinations")
-> leafcfg.cgi (Edit leaf.cfg )
webconf.lrp -> (all the framework, lib, css, etc)
-> connection-info.cgi ( Active Connections)
-> general-info.cgi (General Health)
-> logfiles.cgi (Log Files)
-> lrcfg.back.cgi (Backup Packages)
-> wc-passwd.cgi (Webconf password)
lrcfg.back.cgi is in the core so exra .lwp's will be able to save their
changes: If the admin installs a nice interface to editing the dansguardian
blacklists (danguard.lwp), he will want to let the customer save the changes
to the boot media. In this example, the /etc/init.d/webconf LWP would be:
LWP="danguard". The customer gets to look at general health, save the
packages that are installed, and gets to play with dansguardian. Nothing
else.
[Disclaimer: danguard.lwp does not exist at this time... volunteers welcome]
If anyone sees a reason NOT to do as described above, please let me know.
Thanks!
