What follows is a list of software for groups, including file storage and sharing, that can be self-hosted. If the client wants to self-host one of these solutions and needs guidance in choosing a hosting provider, refer to Article #88: Advice on Hosting.
For secure file storage on any non-encrypted cloud service the client might be using, we can recommend that they encrypt files or folders with Veracrypt before they upload them to the cloud, and then share the Veracrypt database channel with colleagues and partners through a separate encrypted channel.
Up1 – Client Side Encrypted Image Host
For sensitive information, such as database passwords, we recommend you use client-side encryption using AWS Key Management Service and store the resulting values as ciphertext in your environment variable. You will need to include logic in your AWS Lambda function code to decrypt these values.
Customers can add the Runtime Interface Emulator as the entry point to the container image or package it as a sidecar to ensure the container image now accepts HTTP requests instead of JSON events. This simplifies the changes required to run their container image on additional compute services. Customers will be responsible for ensuring they follow all security, performance, and concurrency best practices for their chosen environment. RIE is pre-packaged into the AWS Lambda provided images, and is available by default in AWS SAM CLI. Base image providers can use the documentation to provide the same experience for their base images.
The listener itself remains unchanged (it binds to all available NICs, on port 9092). The only difference is that this listener will tell a client to reach it on asgard03.moffatt.me instead of localhost.
You might see colored logs Device 10fb does not support flow control autoneg as alerts, but this is a regular log that reflects the status of flow control support of certain NICs. On some OEM images, this log might display frequently, but it does not indicate any issues with the ESXi host.
This issue might occur when a datastore where the VM resides enters the All Paths Down state and becomes inaccessible. When hostd is loading or reloading VM state, it is unable to read the VM's name and returns the VM path instead. For example, /vmfs/volumes/123456xxxxxxcc/cs-00.111.222.333.
The system attempts to search for the cached ESXi image on the disk, next in the boot order. If the ESXi cached image is found, the host is booted from it. In legacy BIOS, this feature works without problems. However, in the UEFI mode of the BIOS, the next device with the cached image might not be found. As a result, the host cannot boot from the image even if the image is present on the disk.
We'll cover all the features and facets of configuring and user our client. Our quickstart guide can help you quickly get off the ground and start hosting HTTP/S services. The the following sections will dive deep and explore and all the functions available and how to use correctly.
Client configuration is very first step. The Packetriot client can be configured to work in a few different use-cases. You can set it up for system-wide use or for user-only. If you're using your tunnel for intermittent hosting and testing, then you want user-only.
Now let's dive into configuring a client in both of these scenarios. It's important to note that in both these scenarios we must always specify the hostname of the Spokes server using the --hostname flag.
An authentication token is a secrets generated on the server-side of Spokes, by the admin, and provided a user or client. The option to specify a hostname for the tunnel is not available when using an authentication tunnel since that is specified by the admin when it's created.
There are two modes of hosting, or operation, for the pktriot client: instant hosting and persistent hosting. Instant hosting is intended for quick tunneling of HTTP/S or TCP traffic using the hostname assigned to the tunnel. Instant hosting is utilized using the commands pktriot http or pktriot tcp. There's more information on instanting hosting in the HTTP/S and TCP sections of our client documentation.
In the sub-sections below we demonstrate how to use all of the HTTP/S features and functions available in with Packetriot client. We will assume in the examples below that we have a tunnel with the assigned hostname example-tunnel-123.pktriot.net.
An HTTP/S reverse proxy will initially receive the HTTP/S request from the client and serve it to the correct upstream server. The upstream server can run locally on the host running the client or elsehwere. As long as the upstream server is routeable the client can serve to it.
Finally, the client can accept a URL such as http:/127.0.0.1:8080 as a destination by using the --upstream-url flag. With the --upstream-url flag you can also use an HTTPS server running locally. It can be combined with the --webroot and --host-header flags well.
We use a different command for these rules tunnel http add. The important flags in this command are --domain which specifies the hostname for the HTTP/S traffic you're requesting the Packetriot/Spokes server to forward to your client. The --destination flag indicates our upsteam servers' address and the --http flag is used to indicate the listening port for the service.
Our HTTP inspector provides the ability to inspect incoming HTTP requests that are relayed from the Packetriot client to an upstream HTTP service running at the destination host:port that you specify. The response from the server is also captured.
The Packetriot client provides integration with Let's Encrypt to add automatic HTTPS hosting for the website served behind a tunnel. Using Let's Encrypt build on the setup you've done for using a custom domain. It's absolutely necessary that the custom domain is setup first otherwise and that domain ownership has been verified.
In this example we're forwarding traffic to a host 192.168.0.100. It could be localhost as well. The listening port for TLS traffic on the host 192.168.0.100 is 443 the standard port. The TLS handshake will occur between the client on the Internet and this server.
Port mapping is a function of the client that creates a local listening port on the host that is mapped to a another service running behind a tunnel or an external service. The pktriot ports is the root command for all port mapping operations. It's important to note that this command only works with customers that have deployed their own Spokes server.
This will require some DNS administration for the LAN or on individual hosts. DNS records will need to be created to point custom domains your using for HTTP/S services hosted behind your Packetriot tunnel to point to the IP address of the host running the client.
Since our servers host wildcard TLS certificates for the hostnames assigned to tunnels, trying to access HTTPS services with our domain locally will fail. With custom domains, the client has the TLS certificates so both HTTP and HTTPS will work as expected.
Using the local hosts file on your OS works on a small scale, however, if you have many clients on your networks or want the configuration to just work you can run a proper DNS server like BIND or dnsmasq to customize DNS on your local network and update your routers DHCP settings to point to this DNS server.
Docker is available on many operating systems these days and we have a containerized version of our client. On Mac OS and Windows, Docker is available through a virtual machine and excellent integration with the host OS. Docker containers can be run with the same "restart container on reboot" just as Systemd services on native Linux can.
On most modern Linux distributions Systemd is used to manage services running on the host. In all of our Linux packages, RPM, Debian and tarballs, we include a Systemd service unit that can be used to manage the Packetriot client as a service. With Systemd you can ensure that the client will be started on reboots or if it crashes.
My preference is running command using docker exec -it. When I have a lot planned management for my traffic rules, or just tinkering, I'll usually step into the container by creating a shell docker exec -it sh and using the client as I would on my host.
It's best practice when setting a containerized client to map a directory on the host to the /data in the container. This is where the configuration file and directory is located by default in our image.
In this configuration, the Spring Cloud Eureka client knows to connect to the Eureka instance running on localhost if Cloud Foundry's VCAP_SERVICES environment variable doesn't exist or contain valid credentials.
The goal, you'll recall, is to let the client decide based on contextual information (which could change from client to client) which service instance it will connect to. Netflix has a Eureka-aware client-side load-balancing client called Ribbon that Spring Cloud integrates extensively. Ribbon is a client library with built-in software load balancers. Let's look at an example that uses Eureka directly and then uses it through the Ribbon and Spring Cloud integration.
Service registration and client-side load-balancing are just one of the things that Spring Cloud does to promote more resilient service-to-service calls. We have not looked at its support single-sign on and security, distributed locks and leadership election, reliability patterns like the circuit breaker, and much more.
This means that if you are a host in a less visited area, listing on Booking.com will likely allow you to have a much larger pool of potential guests. While we never had this problem in London, it is certainly something that is worth considering depending on your location.
I am a host and using both AirBnB and Booking.com for more than 5 years and seriously thinking about dropping Booking.com as besides the standard booking fee they now introduced a new additional cost in amount of 1.4% for payment collection. I do not like their style by imposing me their opportunities all the time as if anyone using these opportunities has profited a lot and I should do the same. Costly and useless. I do not like most of the guests I get through booking.com reservation system. My property has maintained a high review score (9.7 out of 10) all these 5 years and I am finally done. Each time when I receive new booking I pray it is from tourists and not locals. We have very strict house rules (no parties, no visitors, no shoes inside, no pets, silent hours from 11 to 9) and because of our rating and level of cleanliness (10 out of 10) we started to receive lots of bookings from local guests who absolutely do not read house rules. On AirBnB I can have a control over who I let in and guests must accept house rules before they book. I like my AirBnB guests, they come from distant places and are eager to know about my country, traditions culture. A different world. But now there is a big problem. Local guests have discovered AirBnB as another alternative platform to book their stay without understanding the true essence of AirBnB. And they do not read house rules even if they tick the box they have read and understood. They even do not read description. Millenials. Unfortunately. 2ff7e9595c
