Berland: remove sudo

Privoxy is a web proxy program, frequently used in combination with [[Tor]] and [[Squid]]. It has filtering capabilities for protecting privacy, modifying web page data, managing cookies, controlling access, and selectively removing content such as ads, banners and pop-ups. It can be customized and has application for both stand-alone systems and multi-user networks. [from Wikipedia]

== Installation on Amahi server ==
$ yum install privoxy

Privoxy must be configured manually after yum-installation. Edit <code>/etc/privoxy/config</code>, the line with <code>listen-address</code> must be changed.
listen-address 127.0.0.1:8118
to
listen-address 192.168.1.50:8118
where 192.168.1.50 is your hda's IP address (the DNS name of your hda does not work).

In order to activate privoxy on your hda, write the following commands
$ chkconfig --add privoxy
$ chkconfig privoxy on

In order to start it immediately (not only after boot) issue
$ service privoxy start

== Web browser configuration ==
Your web browser must be configured to use your hda as a web proxy. In Firefox/Opera/whatever preferences, make sure
hda:8118
is set as your proxy server.

== Test server and configuraton ==

After installation, configuration of both server and web browser, test that everything went well by visiting the url
* http://config.privoxy.org
If everything is ok, privoxy will intercept this url and provide you with a web configuration panel.

==TODO==

* Packaging as an Amahi-application that can be installed and controlled from Amahi-dashboard
* Automatic configuration (listen-address)
* Coupling with DHCP or DNS-server so that clients can get automatic proxy configuration (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wpad)

Berland: add questio0n

Is this setup in any way related to PBA? Or is PBA totally ignorant of what you do with sbackup?

Berland: +question

Leave your comments about [[Maps]] here on this page.

'''Installation'''
* At the moment I hosted the package file on my own site, until Amahi has a place for public downloads.

Very nice app! -cpg

... your comments here.

'''Caching'''
Is it possible to let the Amahi server cache the map tiles (for subsequent increased speed)? [[User:Berland|Berland]] 09:39, 23 October 2009 (UTC)

PXE KNIFE

Berland: fix netboot link

'''NOTE:''' PXE Knife has been superseded by Amahi [[Netboot]]. This is still in development.

===Legacy Notes===
*Get the latest tar from http://pxeknife.erebor.org/releases/
*migrate to /usr/share/hda-app-pba/tftp/
*untar the pxeknife ( tar -xvf pxeknife.tar.gz )
*run " yum install syslinux "
*run " cp -rf /usr/lib/syslinux/*.c32 /usr/share/hda-app-pba/tftp/ "
*now go to /usr/share/hda-app-pba/tftp/pxelinux.cfg/
*run "mv default default.old"
*pico default
*add this to the file
<pre>

*Now you should be ready to do a netboot.

*Add PBA to boot options - still needs to be tested
*Installing OS though pxeknife - every operating system is different. After downloading the iso. You need to find the kernel(vmlinuz, linux, ...) and the intrid (.gz, .... ).
