Hi there,

I'm looking into deploying osf on a test server and tried a few things with this repo but didn't get very far. Before I spend more time looking into it, would you mind letting me know what is the current status of the scripts here, or if there is a particular branch I should use to have some known good configuration?

I've tried to use deploy.yml but it seems that the osf role has been moved into the (legacy) folder on master.

I've tried to use docker-osf.yml but it seems relatively bleeding edge? I'm happy to chase this as ansible/docker would be my preferred approach if that's useful.

Cheers!

Just a quick note for when we get back to developing the OSF role: we should ensure that each OSF deployment has a unique cookie name defined in website.settings. Otherwise we'll get strange behavior in IE9, which allows multiple cookies with the same name.

I believe @chrisseto has already made a role for this. Posting this for record-keeping

For some reason, using the lookup function for public ssh keys doesn't seem to be working.

genericusers_users:
   # ...
  ssh_keys:
     - "{{ lookup('file', 'group_vars/pubkeys/sloria.pub') }}"

When the genericusers role runs, the ssh keys are not copied (the ssh_keys variable appears to be an empty list.

@lyndsysimon is seeing the same thing.

For now, I'm just copying the pubkeys directly.

@fabianvf is currently working on this

I have manually tested LFD like so:

• Temporarily allow password authentication by changing groupvars
• set LF_SSHD_PERM = 30 in the csf configuration file
• ssh sloria@localhost -p 2222 -o PubkeyAuthentication=no
  • do at least 5 bad logins
• Check that log is saved to /var/log/lfd.log

Can anyone think of a better way to test this?
