Overview

Ajaxterm is a web based terminal. It was totally inspired and works almost exactly like Anyterm except it's much easier to install.

• Ajaxterm written in python (and some AJAX javascript for client side) and depends only on python2.3 or better.
• Ajaxterm is very simple to install on Linux, MacOS X, FreeBSD, Solaris, cygwin and any Unix that runs python2.3.
• Ajaxterm was written by Antony Lesuisse (email: al AT udev.org), License Public Domain.

Please note; this guide currently only works on Ubuntu version 6.10 aka Edgy Eft. I will add 6.06 information soon.

Installation and Setup

Simply install the ajaxterm package.

sudo apt-get install ajaxterm

Once it has downloaded and installed the apt files you can start ajaxterm with the command;

sudo /etc/init.d/ajaxterm start

With some peoples computers we start to get errors due to their ssh config.. so you will need to edit your ssh_config

 
sudo nano -w /etc/ssh/ssh_config
//uncomment: PasswordAuthentication yes

[1]

The default location for the config file is located /etc/default/ajaxterm . This may be edited to change the default port [Default=8022] Remember and open up port 8022 if you are running a firewall, and that is it set up on your local machine. You can access it with [2] . How ever check out below for how to access it from an external machine.

External Access

You can access your computer externally, how ever this is unsafe and may compromise your computers safety. Below is a fairly safe way of using Apache2 and SSL. To configure Apache2 for HTTPS and generate a certificate, follow the instructions in the Server Guide. Now copy [then symlink] the SSL config from the Available sites to the Enabled sites

sudo cp /etc/apache2/sites-available/default /etc/apache2/sites-available/ssl

Make sure all the modules for proxy have been made available;

sudo a2enmod proxy_http

It is time to decide on an htaccess password and username, remember and make this password strong.

 
sudo mkdir /srv/ajaxterm
sudo htpasswd -bc /srv/ajaxterm/.htpasswd [user] [pass]

You will now need to go access the vhost settings which [here at least..] are located in sites-enabled

sudo nano -w /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default

Remove the line; NameVirtualHost * and edit the first Vhost to include the port 80; <VirtualHost *> change to <VirtualHost *:80>. Add an entry for the new port number and proxy to the AjaxTerm

<VirtualHost *:443>
        SetEnvIf Request_URI "^/u" dontlog
        ErrorLog /var/log/apache2/error.log
        Loglevel warn
        SSLEngine On
        SSLCertificateFile /etc/apache2/ssl/apache.pem

        ProxyRequests Off
        <Proxy *>
                AuthUserFile /srv/ajaxterm/.htpasswd
                AuthName EnterPassword
                AuthType Basic
                require valid-user

                Order Deny,allow
                Allow from all
        </Proxy>
        ProxyPass / http://localhost:8022/
        ProxyPassReverse / http://localhost:8022/
</VirtualHost>

Restart apache2 sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart open your firewall port 443 and try to browse to [3] where yourhost.foo is either your IP adress or your hostname/web address.
