upside-down-ternet/squid/apache/perl problem

mrbug · 2008-04-02 20:32:59

I'm trying to setup the upside-down-ternet from http://www.ex-parrot.com/~pete/upside-down-ternet.html, but the script creates the files with 740 permissions. Apache is then giving 403 errors, of course. The "proxy" user has umask 022, so I fail to see why the permissions are not 755.

Everything else is working except for the images; text passes through perfectly.

The redirect script follows: (I have changed the paths from these to fit my filesystem)

#!/usr/bin/perl
$|=1;
$count = 0;
$pid = $$;
while (<>) {
chomp $_;
if ($_ =~ /(.*\.jpg)/i) {
$url = $1;
system("/usr/bin/wget", "-q", "-O","/space/WebPages/images/$pid-$count.jpg", "$url");
system("/usr/bin/mogrify", "-flip","/space/WebPages/images/$pid-$count.jpg");
print "http://127.0.0.1/images/$pid-$count.jpg\n";
}
elsif ($_ =~ /(.*\.gif)/i) {
$url = $1;
system("/usr/bin/wget", "-q", "-O","/space/WebPages/images/$pid-$count.gif", "$url");
system("/usr/bin/mogrify", "-flip","/space/WebPages/images/$pid-$count.gif");
print "http://127.0.0.1/images/$pid-$count.gif\n";

}
else {
print "$_\n";;
}
$count++;
}

Are you actually using it "against" someone? Good luck! (sry, am ignorant when it comes to networking)

Nope.... I'm just using it as a belated April Fools' Day joke on someone who wasn't actually around that day.

I'm also trying to use it as a proxy without the wireless stuff. perhaps I should have mentioned that in my original post.

That did work for you? It wasn't working for me when I tried it with just the chmod part, so maybe chowning the file was the missing link!

I'll give it a try Monday... It would be very cool if this works.
