[PHP] Re: Installing PEAR on machines without internet access.
Gregory Beaver wrote: Lester Caine wrote: I've been going through the hoops documenting installation and recovery notes for my customer sites. The majority of these run local web services with no internet access from the servers, so with the increasing reliance on PEAR extensions, I'm looking to the correct way to 'install' PEAR packages. Currently I just clone the PEAR directory from another machine. Is this the only way ? This will work if and *only* if the paths are the same on the destination machine. If so, this works fine. Otherwise, you can install PEAR directly just as PHP does, using install-pear-nozlib.phar, check out the pear/ directory in your unix-based PHP distribution for the Makefile.frag that shows usage. After PEAR is installed, you can install packages directly from tarball via the command-line. pear install Package-1.2.3.tgz Main problem I'm finding is working on site and hitting something that is not in the PHP download already. Although these sites are slowly allowing internet access, you can guarantee you forget to pick something on one that isn't :( Shitting windows has the same problem of cause - requires a working internet connection for some key steps and at 10pm trying to get a customers system back on line I have a large USB disk with almost everything I need - it would be nice to be able to simply download PEAR since many projects have stopped bothering to include the bits they use :( Greg P.S. PEAR questions are best asked on [EMAIL PROTECTED], the best support for PEAR is on that list.

[PHP] Communicated-Key/Token for SOAP Authentication
Hi all, I'm working on a relatively straight forward Web API that'll have a SOAP presence. The most secure way of going about doing authentication would be undoubtedly client-certificate authentication. I have been able to implement such a service straight forward as there is plenty of documentation out there covering how to do so. I have some clients who're reluctant to manage client certificates at this point in time, and do prefer a communicated-key authentication, very similar to what Amazon and a few of the other big boys do. I'm having a bit of a difficult time coming up with multiple solutions as to how to properly implement this for my service besides stuffing a random hash into my database and making them send it to me over SSL through their message payload. I can then compare the hash against what's in the database + their IP, or something else. Would anyone be able to suggest some algorithm for the way I'm handling the tokens that's more secure and less "brute-forcible" than the methodology I described above? My objective in this exercise is not to only authenticate who's sending me the SOAP envelope, but also to ensure that whatever token/key system I implement is not open for very simple brute force. If they're able to knock down my brick house, I have other problems --- but I definitely want to build that brick foundation. Suggestions, web articles, books etc., are all welcome! Thank you for any advice from you avid web service gurus. /sf -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

I'd want to let all the people I deal with in the online world that I've died and that the chances of me fixing bugs/patching things are relatively slim. I heard of a service whereby you could send messages to people after you die. You write a special passcode for the service and instruct (in your Will) your executor to process it which then causes various messages to be sent (to loved ones, enemies etc.). I wonder if something similar should be done for mailing lists and such like?
