All: I recently wrote an LDAP library for Ruby called Net::LDAP, and I''ve noticed that quite a few people are using it to do authentication and authorization for Rails apps. I know there are several well-done login generators for Rails, but what about people that would rather use a directory? If we were to write a generator for Rails that used LDAP (or A/D) as the backend, would

Hello, I need to generate a unique ID, so far I''ve unit tested this under 100000 iterations and it seems to work : now.to_i.to_s + ''-'' + now.usec.to_s + ''-'' + rand(1000).to_s Is there a better way ? Thanks Notes : 1) without usec, few percents of generated values are not uniques 2) the id generated is a string so the presence of

I occasionally get a fatal error unable to delete epoll event: Bad file descriptor I think the attached patch will fix it. The patch does two things: 1) changes the error we look for from ENOENT to EBADF. It is hard to reproduce this error, but if I change the epoll_ctl line to epoll_ctl(epfd, EPOLL_CTL_DEL, 666, ed->GetEpollEvent()); it does return -1 with errno = EBADF on my Linux 2.6.9

Dear Mongrel Users, It appears that Francis still isn''t satisfied with my attempts to apologize and he''s now asked me privately to retract my statements. So, just to be sure he finally gets it: I retract my statements that Francis and his friends are "shady" and "desperate for cash". He is in no way a shady guy, having dealt with this situation with the

I''m using the current release branch from the repository (version_0) on freebsd 6.1 with ruby 1.8.4. This is the error that is generated when running the code below at the bottom of the message, plus a gdb bt. Sorry no debugging symbols built into ruby but maybe the bt will help anyways. terminate called after throwing an instance of ''std::runtime_error'' what():

My Rails application requires a very busy worker process running in the background at all times. I am launching this non-interactive process using script/runner. This process is very busy and is communicating with the MySQL server constantly. As I started putting some load on the system to test, I started running into performance issues. I have since discovered that Rails is only using 1

Is there a way to authenticate with an IP address? I''m using the LoginGenerator, but would like to bypass the "before_filter :login_required " if a user is in a correct IP range... Anyone know of a solution? Thanks! -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

I''ve actually found a way to make EventMachine listen to events from a serial port, but only by using the pure Ruby version, using Guilliame Pierronnet''s Ruby/SerialPort library. It turned out to be simpler than I thought it would be: require ''serialport'' $eventmachine_library = :pure_ruby require ''eventmachine'' module EventMachine class

Announcing version 0.0.4 of Net::LDAP, the pure-Ruby LDAP library. Thanks to the many people who have used this library and sent in comments, suggestions, feature requests, and patches. An even bigger thank-you to the folks who have made themselves available to help with testing. Net::LDAP has been quite stable for several months now, so we bumped the development status of the library up to

We''re pleased to announce version 0.0.3 of Net::LDAP, the first pure-Ruby LDAP library. Net::LDAP intends to be a feature-complete LDAP client which can access as much as possible of the functionality of the most-used LDAP server implementations. This library does not wrap any existing native-code LDAP libraries, creates no Ruby extensions, and has no dependencies external to Ruby.

Hi, Anyone got any cool tricks for converting a Rails site (in this case, a typo installation) from a mysql database to a postgresql database? I''ve got it almost working -- I''m doing a SQL dump from mysql and loading it into postgres. However, mysql does booleans as a tinyint with 0 = false and 1 = true. When I try to import that into a postgres database that expects booleans

Hi everyone, If you subclass EventMachine::Connection and call it outside an EventMachine::run event loop, EventMachine crashes! Example: class Put < EventMachine::Connection include EventMachine::Deferrable HOST="localhost" PORT=8080 def self.request(data) EventMachine.connect(HOST, PORT, self) {|c| c.instance_eval { @data = data } } end #

Is getsockname (or its equivalent) available to an EM Connection object? I''d like to access the local port number in my client application. --Michael

Hi everyone. Does anyone have any preferences or ideas for an interface for SSL certificates, both client-side and server-side? At present, the only interface is EventMachine::Connection#start_tls, which uses a built-in self-signed cert on the server side. On the cilent side, it accepts any well-formed cert (that is, it doesn''t check that the remote cert is signed by a trusted authority).

Hello, I have been looking at the Ruby/EventMachine. First let me say it look very good. Reactor model with no threads makes for fast reliable server, and I have read about marvelous Twisted framework for Python and am glad to see something similar for Ruby. I am writing network app with Ruby threads now and it very slow, and I try new Ruby 1.9 with native threads that make it much slower.

Just thought I''d let you know that your http parser worked great for creating an http protocol handler for Eventmachine. It wouldn''t take that much effort to use Eventmachine for Mongrel, might be worth a shot just to see how it does. A few things would need to be restructered, like HttpRequest where you read the rest of the body, and calling the handler. But it

Hi, Is rails supposed to support referential integrity? That is rails either support to be able to ensure that when a new contact is created this can only happen if a valid suberb is associated with it, and which mechanisms of the below are supposed to do this? (a) using DB foreign key constraints information as a basis? (b) using the "has_one" line in the model file to enfore? If

All, does anyone use the Oasis DSML standard? It''s a mapping between standard LDAP/LDIF operations and data structures to XML. There are some Java tools that handle DSML. I just saw a requirement for accessing an LDAP server by a service that requires results encoded in DSML, so I thought I''d better add this support to the Net::LDAP library. Is this of interest to any of

Hi EM Gurus, I''m hoping someone can shed some light on the following... I''m using a 3rd party (legacy) server that can accept up to 8 simultaneous connections on one port. I''ve been able to make multiple connections to this server from within one call to EventMachine::run {...}. Specificaly, I can access each connection separately using: em_thread = Thread.new do
