10 <h1>Wget Gateway</h1>
11 </center>
12 <p>
13 Welcome to Wget Gateway, a simple page showing the usage of
14 socksified wget behind a firewall. In my configuration it is
15 very useful because:
16 <ul>
17 <li>Only few users can exit from firewall
18 <li>A lot of users need information that can be reached in Internet
19 <li>I cannot dowload big files during my job time, so, I
20 have to schedule the requests after the normal work time
21 </ul>
22
23 <p>
24 With the combination of a socksified wget and a simple cgi
25 that schedules the requests can I reach the aim. All you need
26 is:
27 <ul>
28 <li> A socksified copy of
29 <a href="ftp://gnjilux.cc.fer.hr/pub/unix/util/wget/wget.tar.gz">
30 wget</a>
31 <li> Perl (available on all the GNU mirroring sites)
32 <li> cgi-lib.pl (available at
33 <a href="ftp://ftp.switch.ch/mirror/CPAN/ROADMAP.html">CPAN</a>)
34 <li> A customized copy of this html
35 <li> A customized copy of socks.cgi
36 </ul>
37 This is my h/s configuration:
38 <pre>
39
40+----------+ +----------------------------------+ +---------------------+
41| Firewall | | Host that can exit from firewall | | Intranet www server |
42+----------+ | htceff | +---------------------+
43 +----------------------------------+ | Wget.html |
44 | socksified wget | +---------------------+
45 | cgi-lib.pl |
46 | perl |
47 | wget.cgi |
48 +----------------------------------+
49 </pre>
50 <p>
51 wget.cgi, wget and cgi-lib.pl are located in the usual
52 cgi-bin directory. The customization of wget.cgi and
53 wget.html has to reflect you installation, i.e.:
54 <ul>
55 <li> download-netscape.html requires wget.cgi
56 <li> wget.cgi requires Perl, cgi-lib.pl and wget
57 <li>
58 wget.cgi has to download the files to a directory writable
59 by the user submitting the request. At the moment I have an
60 anonymous ftp installed on <em>htceff</em>, and wget puts
61 dowloaded files to /pub/incoming directory (if you look at
62 wget.cgi, it sets the destdir to "/u/ftp/pub/incoming" if
63 the user leaves it blank).
64 </ul>
65 <p>
66 You can also add other parameters that you want to pass to wget,
67 but in this case you will also have to modify wget.cgi
