      Implement a cross machine login so that user is automatically logged · 9310dedb
      Leigh B. Stoller authored
      into the Wiki when clicking on the My Wiki's link. Works like this:
      
      * The My Wiki's link points to new page, gotowiki.php3, on boss.
      
      * The gotowiki page looks for a new cookie in the user's browser
        which holds a key (the usual random data run through md5).
      
      * If the key does not exist, generate it and store it in the user
        browser (expires when browser is closed or emulab login times out).
        Also invoke backend script wikixlogin, which will send the key over
        to the wiki server (via ssh), which will write the key into a file
        named by the user account.
      
      * The user's browser is redirected to the wiki server's login script
        (twiki/bin/newlogon), but instead of username and password, we send
        over username and key (as well as redurl= parameter which is the
        page on the wiki server to redirect to later).
      
      * The new login script looks for this case, and opens the file named
        by the user and compares the key it gets with what is in the file.
        If they match, the user login succeeds and the browser is once again
        redirected, but this time to the page it wants on the wiki server.
        If the key does not match, the browser is redirected to the login
        page (so user can enter username password normally). The redurl
        parameter is passed along as well.
      
      * Subsequent clicks on My Wiki's will not need to invoke the backend
        script, since the cookie will be in the browser.

      Add a role slot to the new_interfaces table to mirror the role slot of · 3c29b0b0
      Leigh B. Stoller authored
      the interfaces table. This will be used to override the defaults that
      newnode assigns using the node_types table, since for ElabinElab,
      interface roles are actually picked however assign feels like it, not
      according to any rules.

      Okay, I think I am finally done with WikiWhacking (or WhackingTheWiki?) · 90dcbbe2
      Leigh B. Stoller authored
      for the near future. Two big changes:
      
      * Add WikiOnly accounts. An external user can register for an account on
        the wiki. Rather then use the registration stuff that comes with TWiki,
        redirect to new Emulab web page so we can manage all of the wiki accounts
        from one place. I modified the joinproject page to spit out a subset of
        the required fields so that its simple to get a wiki only account (just a
        few things to fill in).
      
        In keeping with current security practices, we still generate a
        verification email message to ensure the email address works. However,
        when the user completes the verification, the wiki account is created right
        away, rather then waiting for someone to approve it (since that would
        defeat the entire point of the wiki).
      
        Aside: I have not thought much about the conversion from a wiki-only
        account to a real account. That is going to happen, and it would be nice
        if that step did not require one of use to go in and hack the DB. Will
        cross that moat later.
      
        Aside: Rather beat up on the modify user info page too much, I continue
        to spit out the same form, but mark most of the fields as not required,
        and allow wiki-only people to not specify them.
      
      * Both the joinproject and newproject pages sport a new WikiName field so
        that users can select their own WikiName. I added some JavaScript to
        both pages that generate a suitable wikiname from the FullName field, so
        that as soon as the user clicks out of the FullName, a default wikiname is
        inserted in the field.
      
        Both pages verify the wikinames by checking to make sure it is not
        already in use, and that it meets the WikiRules for WikiTopic names.
        (someone please shoot me if I continue to use WikiNotation).

      wiki pages for projects and users on an existing testbed. This
      assumes I can easily partition the actual twiki code into a
      distribution that we can give people. I haven't really thought much
      about that, but I assume its not too hard.
