Today has released the version 3.0 of dtools, which is a completly rewritten version. This version fix some minor bugs related with tag solving and also how to handle tags and database.

Now the database file is completely independent of ssh, but work fine together (we keep in mind our project goals!), also new color scheme is provided and modules was rewritten too. The sudo and ssh modules are now more stables and allow to work fine in interactive mode too.

Finaly documentation is maintaned in man mode and also add text file called FAQ with common questions.

I have invested some time in updating the Nginx ebuild to version 0.8.32, incorporating some changes that have landed some weeks ago in the official Gentoo ebuild:

• The gzip-static USE-flag is now static-gzip.
• A configuration file for logrotate is now provided and installed.
• The USE-flags for mail components now allow for fine grained control with the imap, pop and smtp flags.
• An updated init script.

As always, our ebuild includes support for a number of additional modules (WSGI, Fancyindex, SCGI, etc)

Enjoy!

Today I have updated the Nginx ebuild to version 0.8.31, and incorporated the latest changes from the official Gentoo version. This includes:

• Added keyword ~x86-fbsd
• New USE-flag securelink, to control whether the secure link module is built.
• New USE-flag random-index, to control whether the random index module is built.
• A fix to make the Perl module build with certain libperl versions.
• If IPv6 is enabled, a warning about its support being experimental will be issued during build.

Enjoy!

The libnss_map module is a small library for GNU Name Service Switch which maps all users to one previously defined. also fake the username and groups for the UID/GID to appear the username who log in. The module implements also a small group role facility, so different users can login with the same UID/GID, but keep different group membership.

This module can be used to turn nginx into a long-polling message queuing HTTP push server, which is great for Comet-based web applications by just making Nginx sit in front of your applications and letting it handle long-lived connections, which is a task which fits its event-based architecture well. Then you applications do not need to be asynchronous, and may be coded using more traditional techniques, as long as they post updates to clients using the a message queue which uses Nginx with this “push” module.

Make sure you get a peek at the documentation http://github.com/slact/nginx_http_push_module

Have a lot of fun...
