persiaLooking at http://wiki.baserock.org/quick-start/, I notice the claim "Putting ssh keys into the VM is not a good idea".  Does anyone know the thinking behind that remark?14:37
paulsherwoodyou shouldn't leave your keys in too many places?14:38
KinnisonMy keys are kept in a set of shares distributed among physical devices and only brought together when I need private material for active use14:39
paulsherwoodi may be the person who wrote that, but i believe i was counselled into this reasoning by other wiser folk14:39
persiaI suppose, but why not create new keys for the VM?14:39
Kinnisonpersia: I imagine, when we wrote that, we treated VMs as throwaway items and therefore wasteful to maintain new keypairs for each14:39
paulsherwoodbecause then you'd have to add the new keys to (eg) trove and things14:39
* persia agrees very strongly with the idea that keys should be client-specific, so that when a client is lost/stolen/compromised, only that key needs be revoked14:39
persiaKinnison: Ah, that makes sense.14:40
paulsherwoodwhat's wrong with the suggested approach, though - no keys on the guest14:40
persiapaulsherwood: Heh.  Another reason for me to dislike troves :)14:40
Kinnisons/trove/any-system-authenticated-by-ssh/14:40
paulsherwoodi have a love-hate relationship with troves14:40
KinnisonTroves are the troubled middle-child, we had an awful child first (using other people's git repos) which resulted in terrible things and left home in a huff.14:41
KinnisonI just don't know what the perfect youngest child will be like14:41
paulsherwoodKinnison: while you're here - would it be trivial to fix so that http://g.b.o/foo resolved to the foo repo page?14:41
KinnisonNo14:41
KinnisonIt would not14:41
paulsherwoodoh well14:41
persiaThe suggested approach is unsafe if the VM isn't hosted on a secured client: anyone with control of the VM host could use the key.14:41
Kinnisonpaulsherwood: If I understood lighttpd configuration my answer might be different14:41
paulsherwoodKinnison: nod14:41
persiaThe suggested approach works great if the VM happens to be on the users's secured laptop.14:42
paulsherwoodi think that's how we're working by default - but some folks' laptops may be more secured than others'14:42
* petefoth is working in the context of VMs runing in VirtualBox on my laptop. Maybe I should add a caveate on tha w.b.opage about this not being a sensible approacj if you dont have control of the VM host14:43
persiaThat's the general issue with cryptography: you have to decide how much you trust people to have secured their keys.14:43
persiapetefoth: I don't think that belongs in quick-start, unless it gets an overhaul in lots of other ways.14:44
persiaI find it personally interesting, because my laptop rarely has sufficiently clean networking to g.b.o to be useful as a VM host for a baserock devel system, so I use remote VMs, but not everyone has this issu.e14:45
petefothOK I'll leave it for now. Putting w.b.o completely to rights is clearly a job for another day. I will restrict myself to things that I find which are wrong or where a small change or addition might stop people from wasting time14:45
tlsahow do I set an IP address for a system at deploy time?14:46
tlsato give the system a static ip addr14:46
straycatyou use install-files to install an appropriate interfaces file14:47
straycatsorry, i meant to say "could use"14:47
petefothpersia: I'm working within the DCodethink netwrok and with ct-mcr-1 as my upstream Trove, so networking delays are usually not a problem14:47
richard_mawtlsa: simple-network.configure is the preferred option I think14:47
tlsaok14:47
persiapetefoth: Yes, if your organisation hosts a local trove, and you work in your organisation's facilities, these problems are not so obvious :)14:48
richard_mawsince the write extensions can use the config you put in14:48
persiaIs there any documentation on the set of configure extensions?  I seem to have some in definitions.git, but not simple-network.configure, for example.14:49
richard_mawtlsa: you set NETWORK_CONFIG=interface1:option1,option2...;interface2:option1,option2...14:49
Kinnisonif you look at simple-network.configure you can see the default NETWORK_CONFIG14:49
Kinnisonwhich is something like lo:loopback;eth0:dhcp14:49
tlsaI can't find it in defintions14:49
richard_mawit's in morphlib14:49

paulsherwoodhave your changes made it so that some of the use-cases i mentioned the other day are now working?17:24

KinnisonI'm afraid Richard just left, he might be around on IRC later17:24
paulsherwoodok no problem, no rush17:25
