RE: [U2] [UV/Windows] Authentication / encryption issues
This was discussed a long time ago from what I remember and there are (freeware) ssh shells that you can put on the server and client that will therefore encrypt the data (using putty if memory serves me correct).You set sbclient to point to the local ssh client which connected to ssh on the server which connected to telnet on the server via local host. It did work but was a bit fiddly. SSH has been on the roadmap for a longtime - its in unidata and would be put in the next version of universe. I'm sure it was touted to be in version 10.1 but this was probably over a year ago and goalposts move.

I thought Id ask so it would save a lot of aggravation. We have a bunch of dumb terminals (vt100 emulation) with printers attached to the printer port. Currently, we have Epson printers attached and are printing ascii text to a pre-printed form. I would like to use laser printers with postscript. So, I am experimenting with a postscript file that I would like to print via the aux port. What Ive done is to write a test program to open the aux port via control codes, then cat the postscript file, then close the aux port. What prints out is the postscript verbatim. I suppose 'cat' is not the way to go, but some kind of 'binary' method that says to the printer to not interpret as ascii. Does anyone know the magic word for this ?

RE: [U2] [UV/Windows] Authentication / encryption issues
Bill, Using our openssl implementation of SSL with our telnet server cannot be a 'point-and-click' task, as you have mentioned, for a number of reasons. There are also a few reasons for our decision to write our own secure telnet rather than using open source secure shell (SSH). For starters, U2 databases permit you to perform a number of different tasks related to certificates, private keys, cypher suites, and so on. Our implementation is for the entire engine and not just telnet. That means UniObjects For Java, JDBC, sockets, and callHTTP as well. U2 databases use a hashed file to encrypt and store SSL-related information for a given service. You then tell wIntegrate (version 5.1 or later) where that file is so it can locate and read the certificate information during the negotiation phase. It is also possible to use a self-signed certificate so wIntegrate doesn't have to load a chain that contains a client certificate. You just need to specify the SSL port number and some details about the strength of the encryption in the server certificate. UniVerse 10.1.x ship with a version of UniAdmin that walks users through creating certificate requests (for submission to CAs), creating certificates from requests (including public and private keys), creating a security context record for UV services to read and get the security details (like certificate store locations, etc.), and assigning a security context record to a particular UV service. The process does not take long. It's just that each business has different needs, thus we implemented a highly-configurable foundation. Regards, LeRoy F.

Hi Mike, Put a trigger on the file, make it sensitive to the fields you want to trigger a post. Create a 'blank' html message within the trigger just leaving variables for the parts of the message that will be changing. Create a VOC pointer to the directory where your website data is stored and write the record to that. Maybe get really creative and read the INDEX.HTML and append a link to that for the record just stored and write it back out. Never done it before but I think it would work... Have fun! Allen E.

RE: [U2] http posting
[I'll preface this that my gloating looks like an AD to me, so ... AD ] Sounds like you just need a trigger which invokes CallHTTP or something external like cURL. Our new NebulaHTIO (HyperText Input/Output) is a MV BASIC wrapper around cURL, for people who want to do HTTP/HTTPS from MV BASIC code without having to get involved with how the comms happens underneath. Our NebulaLaunch architecture uses this internally, and our NebulaPay payment processing software (now in Beta) also uses it. An advantage to us is that the interface to the code is completely independent of OS or DBMS platform. It doesn't rely on the proprietary nature of socket calls from the different MV environments. It doesn't use platform-specific functions like setHTTPdefault or loadSecurityContext, addCertificate, or setCipherSuite (as if a Pick app developer wants to be a crypto specialist). It automatically handles encoding and decoding of URLs, and the code will even intercept a GET request that really should be a POST, and convert it on the fly unless a flag is set to prevent that interaction. This interface hasn't been ported to U2 yet, but will be when we get requests for payment processing software from U2 VARs. At some point we may separately productize it too. I'm just giving an example of what's possible outside of the CallHTTP box.
