           SSL over TCOSXMLRPC Readme

  #####################################################


  UPDATED: IMPORTANT¡¡ Now certificates are created randomly


  #  TcosXMLRPC server receive a lot of info like others HTTP 
  #  servers in plain text.
  #
  #  Some of this info is user and password strings that are used
  #  to allow exec some danger actions (reboot or poweroff for example).
  #
  #  If you want to protect this traffic data, you can enable SSL 
  #  over TcosXMLRPC (require more CPU and TcosMonitor will work a bit slow).
  #
  #
  #  1.- Install stunnel4 package
  #      (need a package with "TIMEOUTclose=0" patch enabled, see
  #       http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=480496 for more info)
  #
  #  (FOR THIN CLIENTS)
  #  2a.- In Tcosconfig, enable SSL support in services expander, and remake images.
  #
  #  (FOR STANDALONE)
  #  2a.- In tcos-standalone app (or /etc/default/tcos-standalone)
  #   #      enable SSL checkbox/var.
  #
  #
  #  (FOR ALL)
  #  3.- In TcosMonitor -> Preferences, enable SSL over XMLRPC checkbox.
  #
  #
  #  From now all traffic between TcosMonitor and thin clients /standalone
  #  hosts will pass throuth SSL layer.
  #
  # You can check it with tcpdump, wireshark, or ssldump.

  * How to create SSL keys for stunnel (from README.Debian stunnel4 package)
  #
  ##########################################################################
  #
  #
  #   The certificates default directory is /etc/tcos/ssl, so cd into that dir 
  #   and issue the command:
  #
  #     cd /etc/tcos/ssl
  #     openssl req -new -x509 -nodes -days 365 -out tcos-custom.pem -keyout tcos-custom.pem
  #
  #   Fill in the info requested. 
  #
  #     chmod 600 tcos-custom.pem
  #
  #   Now you need to append the DH parameters to the certificate.
  #
  #   First you need to generate some amount of random data:
  #
  #     dd if=/dev/urandom of=temp_file count=2
  #
  #   And now make openssl generate the DH parameters and append them to the
  #   certificate file:
  #
  #     openssl dhparam -rand temp_file 512 >> tcos-custom.pem
  #     rm -f temp_file
  #
  #   IMPORTANT:
  #     Certificate name need to be tcos-custom.pem (don't use another name)
