As you can see, all services are on the same server for now. However, it should be kept as an open possibility that the hosts are split across different IPs. When done so, the <code>ldap</code> host should listen on 636 for LDAPS connections. | |||
== Firewall == | |||
The simple <code>ufw</code> firewall-frontend is used to trivially limit all network I/O to the ports you can see in the host table above, plus port 22 for ssh and scp. | |||

To ease use of the letsencrypt command, the file <code>/root/etc/domains</code> contains all the FQDNs used by the FeministWiki, one per line.

Given that, the preferred way to populate the <code>/etc/letsencrypt/live/feministwiki.org</code> directory with fresh certs is to run the following commands while TCP port 80 is free (e.g. stop Apache first): | ||
# Use $() to eliminate the terminating newline, if any. | |||
domains=$(cat /root/etc/domains) | |||
domains=$(printf '%s' "$domains" | tr '\n' ',') | |||
letsencrypt certonly --authenticator standalone --keep --expand -d "$domains" | |||

It stops Apache, runs the commands described above, and starts Apache again. This can be used not only to refresh a cert that's running out, but also to add a new domain to the cert. Just add the domain to <code>/root/etc/domains</code> and run the commands. Note that the letsencrypt command may not work well on a "dumb" terminal such as an Emacs shell buffer. If in doubt, run it from within a proper terminal emulator. | ||
=== Readability of the key files === | |||
To ensure that processes running under unprivileged users can read key files, ensure that the users they run under are members of the <code>ssl-cert</code> group, which should have read access to the files in <code>/etc/letsencrypt/live/feministwiki.org</code>. | |||
== Ubuntu package repositories == | |||
Currently, FeministWiki runs on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS (Xenial), which has rather old Apache and PHP packages. We use the Ubuntu PPAs <code>ondrej/apache2</code> and <code>ondrej/php</code> to get newer versions. | |||
For F-Droid packages, we use the <code>fdroid/fdroidserver</code> Ubuntu PPA. | |||

=== Wiki === | |||
Host: feministwiki.org, www.feministwiki.org <br/> | |||
Software: MediaWiki | |||
The wiki uses a [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki MediaWiki] installation located at <code>/var/www/wiki/w</code>. It uses the [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/LDAP_Stack LDAP Stack] for login management, and the "Short URL" feature enabled with help of Apache's vhost configuration. | |||
The wiki uses the SQL database called "feministwiki" and the SQL user of the same name. | |||
=== Blogs === | |||
Host: blogs.feministwiki.org <br/> | |||
Software: WordPress (multisite) | |||
This is an installation of WordPress in <code>/var/www/blogs</code>, with the "multisite network" feature enabled on a path-basis, so users can have their own blogs on URLs like <code>blogs.feministwiki.org/janedoe</code>. LDAP authentication is enabled via the AD/LDAP plugin from miniOrange. | |||
Users from LDAP who log in for the first time are automatically registered as "Subscriber" accounts, and the admin can change their WordPress role "Author" to allow publishing. | |||
This WordPress installation uses the SQL database called "blogs" and an SQL user of the same name. | |||

=== POP3 === | |||
Host: pop3.feministwiki.org <br/> | |||
Software: Dovecot | |||
While Dovecot is primarily an IMAP server, it also offers POP3 support, which the FeministWiki installation has enabled. | |||

Send a mail to a Gmail account and use the "Show original" feature of Gmail to see if the mail passes SPF, DKIM, and DMARC tests. | ||
There are also various tools on the web to automatically test the DNS settings for correctness, to check if the domain/IP is on blacklists, etc., which you can find via Google. All in all, FeministMail is probably the most complicated service of the FeministWiki, as far as technical background goes. | |||
=== Mailing lists === | |||
Email domain: lists.feministwiki.org <br/> | |||
Software: GNU Mailman, Postfix | |||
Postfix is configured to recognize <code>lists.feministwiki.org</code> as a "local" domain. This means it uses the file specified in the <code>alias_maps</code> configuration directive (typically <code>/etc/aliases</code>) to decide the final recipient of an e-mail sent to this domain. Correspondingly, we populate <code>/etc/aliases</code> with the aliases needed by Mailman to operate each mailing list it controls. | |||
Note that there is no DNS entry for <code>lists.feministwiki.org</code> because e-mail software just checks the MX record for <code>feministwiki.org</code> when the recipient is from the domain <code><em>anything</em>.feministwiki.org</code>. | |||

This custom web interface hosted at <code>/var/www/account</code> lets you complete several tasks related to FeministWiki membership, such as changing your account settings, resetting your password, or adding a new member. It also contains a form to request membership. The interface is written in HTML, CSS, PHP, and C. |
