similar to: Net::LDAP 0.0.3 released, adds TLS encryption

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

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

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

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

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():

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

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/.

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

I am building a application for my university and I would like to make this application authenticate agains a Active Directory server. I would like to know if there is an already built solution for this somewhere online ?

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

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 #

I have three models in this small game I''m working on - the Game, Players, and Turns. A Player should be able to rescue another Player on any given turn. So it looks like this: class Game has_many :players has_many :turns def rescue_player(p) t = turns.last t.rescued = p t.save end end class Turn belongs_to :rescued, :foreign_key =>

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

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 all, I''m trying to pass more than one parameters using link_to_remote, but I''m getting a behaviour that seems quite strange to me. Here''s the code: link_to_remote ''some text'', :update => ''form'', :method => ''get'', :url => { :action =>

Apologies for cross-posting. We''ve been asked to do a job for a client who wants to embrace agile development methodologies. Hurrah! However, our standard contract was written for the 1980s. It is full of phrases like "agreed specification" and "change request procedure" and so on. I was wondering, how do other people get around this in contract forms with

The ruby code in this isn''t evaluated... flash[:notice] = "Your last recorded entry was <%= @in_out.time_in %> <br />You are currently marked as ''In'', you probably want to check ''Out''" Is there a way? Craig

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).
