 Aaron,

 I don't have a mac mini to test with. So, I have not tried
 installing esxi on a mac mini.

 I'll see if I can dig one up.

[jira] [Resolved] (VCL-418) simplify adding LDAP authentication

2012-04-03 Thread Josh Thompson (Resolved) (JIRA)

Josh Thompson resolved VCL-418.

Resolution: Fixed

 simplify adding LDAP authentication

 Key: VCL-418
 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VCL-418
 Project: VCL
  Issue Type: Improvement
  Components: web gui (frontend)
Reporter: Josh Thompson
Assignee: Josh Thompson
 Fix For: 2.3


 LDAP authentication is currently complicated to add in. It needs to be 
 simplified. Here are some useful changes:
 -update conf.php to automatically configure additional arrays
 -add a parameter to the authMechs array for looking up the full DN of a user 
 so that authenciation.php does not need to be modified
 -simplify places that set the skin based off of the affiliation

[jira] [Resolved] (VCL-319) API LDAP authentication problem with servers where DN must be looked up

 ]

Josh Thompson resolved VCL-319.
---

Resolution: Fixed

The code for authenticating API users was fixed in r1309118, but I forgot to 
tag the commit with this JIRA issue.

Due to the difference in exit/return codes, separating this out into its own 
function is not really worth it.  So, I'm going to leave separate 
implementations of it.

 API LDAP authentication problem with servers where DN must be looked up

 Key: VCL-319
 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VCL-319
 Project: VCL
  Issue Type: Sub-task
  Components: web gui (frontend)
Affects Versions: 2.1
Reporter: Josh Thompson
Assignee: Josh Thompson
Priority: Minor
 Fix For: 2.3


 Authentication for the API doesn't handle LDAP servers where the user's full 
 DN must be looked up before doing an LDAP bind to authenticate the user.  The 
 code for that for normal authentication should be separated out so that it 
 can be called for normal logins and for API logins.

 Dojo is slow to load, especially on pages with many ancillary class files

 Key: VCL-505
 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VCL-505
 Project: VCL
  Issue Type: Improvement
  Components: web gui (frontend)
Reporter: Aaron Coburn
Assignee: Josh Thompson
Priority: Minor
 Fix For: 2.3

 Attachments: utils.php.patch, vcl.profile.js


 Dojo has a dynamic loading mechanism with the dojo.require(...) function. 
 This is very convenient for developers, but for web users, this requires, in 
 some cases, dozens of extra GET requests to load the ancillary javascript 
 libraries.
 With this in mind, I would recommend looking at the Dojo custom build 
 framework at:
 http://dojotoolkit.org/reference-guide/quickstart/custom-builds.html
 This allows a developer to create custom javascript libraries that contain 
 all the needed code for a given 'profile'. I have done this for our 
 installation of the VCL, and it results in a dramatic improvement in load 
 times for individual pages.
 This change requires changing the .ht-inc/utils.php file. I have attached a 
 sample patch (based on version 2.2.1).
 This also requires building a custom dojo environment which can be done by 
 first downloading the full dojo SDK, and then creating a vcl 'profile' in 
 dojo-release-x.x.x-src/util/buildscripts/profile (i.e. vcl.profile.js). The 
 custom files can be generated by issuing the following commands:
 $ cd dojo-release-x.x.x-src/util/buildscripts
 $ ./build.sh profile=vcl action=release
 (I first added the vcldojo files to the dojo directory so that the 
 TimeTextBoxEnd class could be included in the package).
 I have also attached the vcl profile I used. The names given to each 'layer' 
 correspond to the changes in utils.php.

 Jim,

 I'm working on testing the OSX module for inclusion in the next release and 
 run into some questions.

 By chance have you tried to use other apple hardware? I've got a  mac mini 
 (2010 mid) model.

 The initial issue I've run into is the usb keyboard gets disabled once the 
 vmware kernel is loaded. In searching on a solution for this, I've run 
 across folks stating that there is a missing network adapter as well and 
 that has to added later.

 I'm going to attempt to install ESXi on a usb drive and boot the mac mini 
 off of that (hopefully).

 So I was wondering if you've installed ESXi (either 4.1 or 5 ) on a mac mini 
 yet?
