JARVIS
JARVIS (10.0.0.4) is a sandbox VM accessible to any member. It has a shared directory accessible from the space's networked computers, it can host member webpages and can be used via SSH. Computers can also be configured to access JARVIS via the internet using SSH.
Note, Holly is not freely accessible by members as it is mission critical.
Specs
Like Holly, JARVIS is a VM running on Collective, it currently has the following resources
- 1CPU core
- 1GB RAM
- 50GB HDD
- Debian Wheezy 64bit
Running service's include
- SSH
- Apache with PHP5
- MySQL
- SAMBA
File manager access
Every member can create an unencrypted folder on the shared folder on the JARVIS server (/home/shared).
Linux
In Nautilus on Ubuntu:
- Browse Network > Windows Network > nottinghack > JARVIS > Shared
- Enter HMS credentials <username> and <password> in the dialogue box, leave other options as their default values.
SSH access
Note: SSH and web address use the all lowercase form of your HMS <username>Local network
On the local network JARVIS can be accessed via SSH using password or key.
- Using a Linux terminal
ssh <username>@jarvis
Enter your HMS <password> when prompted. You will be logged on as '<username>@jarvis' and be in your home directory (/home/<username>).
- Using Linux file manager
Select 'Connect to server' with settings:
- type: SSH / SFTP
- host: jarvis
- login: <username>
You will be prompted to enter your HMS <password>.
Internet access
JARVIS is accessible from the the internet on jarvis.nottinghack.org.uk port 3000. However, from the internet you will need to using a key to login, not your HMS <password>. This requires configuring your client computer (that will access JARVIS over the internet) and your JARVIS user account (as server). Part of the set up requires being logged into the Hackspace's network; therefore the whole set up can not be done over the internet.
- 1 - Get SSH key
If your client computer hasn't got a SSH create one using:
ssh-keygen
This creates two key in the directory '~/.ssh'.
The private key 'rsa_id' - don't share this one.
The public one 'rsa_id.pub' - bring this one to Hackspace
- 2 - SSH public key to Hackspace
Resources
- SSH with authentication key instead of password - more detail explain of SSH keys
Webpage access
Note: SSH and web address use the all lowercase form of your HMS <username>As we only have one external IP address, WEB/port 80 connections to JARVIS are proxied by Holly.
Your 'public_html' directory is on JARVIS at '/home/<username>/public_html'. Your 'index.html' file goes here.
This is served at web address: http://jarvis.nottinghack.org.uk/~<username>.
