NAME
mini-buildd-ssh-setup - Idempotent setup script for SSH access
SYNOPSIS
mini-buildd-ssh-setup
[[,<ENDPOINT>/],|/[,--purge/]] ,(as user root)/
DESCRIPTION
Idempotent setup script for SSH access
Create and setup three UNIX users that are corresponding to mini-buildd users of the same name:
- * mini-buildd-uploader:
-
Allow uploads via SSH
- * mini-buildd-staff:
-
Allow API calls with 'staff' authorization via SSH
- * mini-buildd-admin:
-
Allow API calls with 'admin' authorization via SSH
Needed extra work on mini-buildd:
- * BEFORE running this:
-
Please create all the three mini-buildd users
- * AFTER running this:
-
Please check/configure/activate the Upload Profile for user mini-buildd-uploader
When this is up:
- * Grant someone access:
-
See the example line in created 'authorized_keys' files of the resp. users.
- * Run API calls:
-
'ssh mini-buildd-staff|admin@<yourhost> mini-buildd-api <mini_buildd_api_args>'
-
Note that you will need the _complete_ arguments, including the correct user endpoint (like 'http://mini-buildd-staff@<yourhost>:8066')
- * Upload:
-
An extra '.dput.cf' will be generated in '/var/lib/mini-buildd/etc/dput.cf' (for dput_conf API call)
-
Authorized users can now also upload with this new target.
Caveats:
Someone with access to 'mini-buildd-uploader' could potentially copy from or write to arbitrary locations (within the
mini-buildd-uploader user's permissions).
