No kernel patches are + required (the kernel's built-in SLIP driver is used). + . + Based on this, udptunnel is a a simple but flexible VPN program which + uses ssh for authentication and key exchange but sends the packets + over UDP. (Other VPN-over-ssh programs typically do PPP-over-TCP, + which yields poor perfoormance.) Note that udptunnel is not IPSEC. + . + The default configuration does set up any users with permission to + create network interfaces such as VPN endpoints. + +Package: userv-dyndns +Architecture: all +Depends: userv, chiark-utils-bin +Recommends: bind +Description: dynamic DNS for shell account users + userv-dyndns is a userv service which allows non-root users to + modify individual DNS records in specified zones in a controlled way. + . + Typically, this can be used to provide a `dyndns.org'-like service + which is modifiable by shell account users. + . + The default configuration does not set up any users with permission + to modify the DNS. + +Package: userv-cgi +Architecture: any +Depends: userv +Recommends: httpd +Description: user-provided CGI scripts invoked by userv + This package contains ucgi, a userv service which allows CGI programs + to be provided which do not run as the webserver user, but instead + are owned by a particular other account. + . + Similar effects can be achieved with Apache's suexec; this package is + for administrators who do not trust suexec and wish to defend the + webserver from the CGI script providers, and vice versa, as much as + possible. This is achieved by using userv to do the cross-account + call, rather than a custom setuid helper. + . + The default configuration allows the webserver user to invoke users' + CGI programs from each user's ~/public-GI, but to allow external + callers to do this, the webserver will also need to be configured. + +Package: userv-groupmanage +Architecture: all +Depends: userv +Description: user-controlled group membership + groupmanage is a userv service which allows individual shell users to + create UN*X groups, and/or to change the membership of existing + groups of which they are recorded as the manager. + . + The default configuration allows users to create and manage a few + groups, but is reasonably conservative. + +Package: userv-misc +Architecture: all +Depends: userv +Description: miscellaneous small userv scripts + This package a few small userv services. Since you must choose + whether to install this package or not as one lump, the default + configuration for each script does not give users any new abilities. + . + mailq - allow users to view the mail queue + ndc-reload - allow certain users to reload the nameserver |
