[SAC] osgeo1 migration?

Hi SAC,

what is the future plan for the osgeo1 server (still Peer hosted)?

Not that much defined at:
http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Infrastructure_Transition_Plan_2010#osgeo1

Just curious,
Markus

Markus,

I think we have stalled a bit in transferring stuff off it. I think
the remaining services are:

  1) The drupal instances for osgeo, fdo and mapguide. I understand that
     Tyler is already working on these - at least the osgeo one.

  2) The LDAP server. I think Martin may have done some work on this
     migration, but I'm not sure.

  3) Mailman - I suppose it would make sense for me to do this part though
     I'm a bit intimidated.

I would like to see us pull the plug on osgeo1 before the end of March.
Potentially some time could be spent on migration, if needed, during the
March code sprint in Montreal since we will have several SAC folks
available, including some MapGears folks (Daniel, Alan), Howard,
perhaps Chris? and myself in one place.

Best regards,
--

Indeed, the LDAP service on the 'secure' VM in itself is quite
functional and in fact I had planned to do the migration right after
new Year. Yet, surprisingly, I was flooded with customer demands this
January and therefore was unable to deal with an issue which appears to
affect the current OSGeo SSL certificate:
For the Lenny distribution Debian folks decided to link the OpenLDAP
server against GnuTLS instead of OpenSSL and, in consequence, quite a
few OpenSSL-based certificates don't work. I _think_ this is biting me,
but I'm still a bit uncertain.

Or maybe I'm just looking at the wrong certificate :slight_smile:

Cheers,
  Martin.

BTW, in order to rule out some uncertainities I've just added a DNS A
record 'ldaptest.osgeo.org', pointing to the 'secure' VM. I will clean
up after the move has finished.

Cheers,

Old news, but did you guys get to do any sysadmin stuff during the Montreal code sprint?

The LDAP server (actually GnuTLS) on the new 'secure' VM didn't accept
the old OSGeo SSL certificate - that's actually why I've been trying to
ping Tyler about the new certificate earlier this year :wink:
Finally I was able to overcome this trouble with installing the new key
and certificate recently and, aside from a fresh LDIF dump plus a few
custom firewall rules on 'osgeo1', everything's in place for migrating
the LDAP service.

I'm currently sitting in Berlin, setting up our booth for presenting
FlightGear on the LinuxTag expo, thus I'm having very few spare cycles
for anything else this week. Instead, migrating the LDAP service next
week would be fine with me.

Cheers,
  Martin.

Tyler,

Briefly - no.

I shall endevour to get things going on the mailman migration front in the
coming week or two.
