Public bug reported: In order to run the autoregistration process as the "eucalyptus" user, we need to make the NODES value maintainable by the eucalyptus user itself. To avoid easy privilege escalation from eucalyptus to root, this needs to happen in a separate file (eucalyptus.conf is sourced by the root user in init/upstart scripts).
Two things need to happen: * eucalyptus-cc needs to support NODES="file" and look into nodes IP addresses in that file -- that should be done in eucalyptus upstream (per Dan) * euca_conf needs to be patched to update NODES value in a separate file -- that would be done as a UEC-specific patch since eucalyptus upstream would not add a new file so late in the cycle. ** Affects: eucalyptus Importance: Undecided Assignee: Daniel Nurmi (nurmi) Status: New ** Affects: eucalyptus (Ubuntu) Importance: High Assignee: Thierry Carrez (ttx) Status: Triaged ** Affects: eucalyptus (Ubuntu Lucid) Importance: High Assignee: Thierry Carrez (ttx) Status: Triaged ** Also affects: eucalyptus Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: eucalyptus Assignee: (unassigned) => Daniel Nurmi (nurmi) ** Changed in: eucalyptus (Ubuntu) Milestone: None => lucid-alpha-3 ** Changed in: eucalyptus (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => High ** Changed in: eucalyptus (Ubuntu) Status: New => Triaged ** Also affects: eucalyptus (Ubuntu Lucid) Importance: High Status: Triaged ** Changed in: eucalyptus (Ubuntu Lucid) Assignee: (unassigned) => Thierry Carrez (ttx) -- Support for using a separate file for the NODES list https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/516373 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to eucalyptus in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
