|
||
|
|
================
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
After installing the package, follow these steps to setup msn-proxy:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1) Edit your configuration files
|
||
|
|
--------------------------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
You'll need to check:
|
||
|
|
- /etc/msn-proxy/msn-proxy.conf
|
||
|
|
- /etc/msn-proxy/mysql/conf
|
||
|
|
- /etc/msn-proxy/mysql.inc.php
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
2) Create database & user on your MySQL server
|
||
|
|
----------------------------------------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
# mysql -p<your_password>
|
||
|
|
mysql> create database `msn-proxy`;
|
||
|
|
mysql> grant all privileges on `msn-proxy`.* to `msn-proxy`@localhost
|
||
|
|
-> identified by 'secret';
|
||
|
|
mysql> flush privileges;
|
||
|
|
mysql> quit
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Change the password ('secret') and name of the server where msn-proxy will
|
||
|
|
run (localhost) as needed.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
3) Start msn-proxy first time to create the tables
|
||
|
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
# msn-proxy -f /etc/msn-proxy/
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
msn-proxy will create the tables and exit with an error:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
fail to read mysql config (check defaults table)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This is normal and will be solved in the next step.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
4) Insert server IP in defaults table
|
||
|
|
-------------------------------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
# mysql -u msn-proxy -psecret
|
||
|
|
mysql> use database `msn-proxy`;
|
||
|
|
mysql> insert into defaults (internal_host) values ('<your_ip>');
|
||
|
|
mysql> quit
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
5) Start msn-proxy
|
||
|
|
------------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
msn-proxy can be started with:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
# msn-proxy -f /etc/msn-proxy &
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Put this line in your /etc/rc.d/rc.local file to always start the service
|
||
|
|
when booting.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
6) Configuring clients
|
||
|
|
----------------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The clients on your network need to point their MSN to your new proxy.
|
||
|
|
You can also do this automatically in your nameserver. If you use dnsmasq
|
||
|
|
on Slackware, simply insert this line:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
address=/messenger.hotmail.com/<your_ip>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This way all requests to resolve the IP for "messenger.hotmail.com" will be
|
||
|
|
answered with the address of your msn-proxy server.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
It is also a good idea to block http access to messenger.hotmail.com (and
|
||
|
|
some of the alternatives out there) in your proxy or firewall if you want
|
||
|
|
to be absolutely sure that all messenger traffic goes through msn-proxy.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
7) See the result
|
||
|
|
-----------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Simply point your browser at http://<your_ip>/msn-proxy/index.php
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Now you have the option to either keep this address "secret" or use known
|
||
|
|
httpd access control methods to prevent all users to see the result :)
