In this post, I'll setup a apache2 with php5 and tomcat6 integrated with apache2.

Since Tomcat 5, you don't need a front http server anymore, but since I want to have php5 and tomcat6 on port 80, I need the tomcat6-apache2 integration with modjk


since a lot of operation need the root privilege, switch to root :

sudo -sApache2 & PHP5 installation

The following command install php5, php5 command line interface (CLI to use php as shell script) and some common php extension.

aptitude install php5 php5-cli apache2 php5-xmlrpc php5-mysql php5-gd php5-imagick php-pear php5-mcrypt
a2enmod headers #Activation of Mod headers
a2enmod deflate #Activation of Mod deflate


Setup the timezone :

vi /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini
[Date]
; Defines the default timezone used by the date functions
date.timezone = Europe/Paris

Java installationaptitude install sun-java6-jdk
vi /etc/profile

Append the following line :

export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun
reload your .profile :

Open ssh connection through proxy with NTML authentication

Here is the explanation of how to pass a ssh connection through a proxy that use NTLM authentication protocol (cryptographic authentication) instead of a plain login/password authenication.

First follow the steps describes here :
http://blog.mansonthomas.com/2008/01/open-ssh-connection-through-http-proxy.html

Next we have to deal with NTLM authentication.

Putty do not know how to talk with proxy that use NTML authentication, so we need a soft that will handle the authentication and encapsulate the network packet.

To do that we'll use cntlm which is a port of an unix programms using cygwin (no need to make a insall of cygwin though...).

Once you unzip the files, edit the configuration file cntlm.ini

You have to change 4 values :

login: Your Windows login name
domain: Your domain name

You can get theses information by hitting CTRL+ALT+SUPPR, a window display and in the first fieldset you can see something like "Thomas Manson has opened a session as DOMAIN\LOGIN"

proxy url and port : …

Open a SSH connection through an http proxy and dig tunnels :)

I'm working for an IT Services & Software Engineering company, and I often work for some time (3 months to a year) by the client company's office...

And often, I'm behind a ****ing proxy that filters http request, provide antivirus analysis etc.. Useful for the company securtity and efficiency, but really borring for me.

Those proxy allows http (tcp/80) and https (tcp/443) connections and nothing else...

So no tcp/22 for SSH, and I miss it really much for many reasons.

So here is what to do, to get an SSH connexion to a linux box.

But beware that doing that will certainly break the security contract you signed when you enter the company. Doing that allow you to bypass the content filtering and security. And you could be fired for that...

This blog post will show you how to bypass an http proxy with a basic authentication.

The following post will show you a way to bypass a proxy with NTLM authentication mecanism.
