OPS345 Lab 5
THIS PAGE IS A DRAFT, NOT A REAL COURSE PAGE
The current schedule for OPS345 is here: OPS335_Weekly_Schedule
- set up a new vm named 'ns1' in vpc-ops345, 10.3.45.12, ops345sgprivate
- iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp --dport 2212 -j DNAT --to 10.3.45.12:22
- allow access to port 2212 in ops3455sg
- install bind
- what is DNS
- how dns works
- typical registrar process
- propagation time
- running a private DNS server
- requirements to run a public DNS server
- you should have received an email about a Bindistrar account that's been created for you
- set up an A record for yourmysenecaid.ops345.ca to point to your elastic IP (the one assigned to router)
- set up a CNAME record for www
- test the two records above using dig, and using firefox
- fix nextcloud "Access through untrusted domain"
- certificates, CAs, relationship with DNS
- CA-signed certs cost money. we have to use let's encrypt which is lame because it expires quickly unless you run their software on your server. but it's free
- follow this except the deploy part: https://help.datica.com/hc/en-us/articles/360044373551-Creating-and-Deploying-a-LetsEncrypt-Certificate-Manually
- install certbot in your workstation using apt or the software manager
$ sudo su
root@p51:/home/andrew# certbot certonly --manual --preferred-challenges dns

NOTE: The IP of this machine will be publicly logged as having requested this
certificate. If you're running certbot in manual mode on a machine that is not
your server, please ensure you're okay with that.
Are you OK with your IP being logged?

Cleaning up challenges
IMPORTANT NOTES:
- Congratulations! Your certificate and chain have been saved at:
/etc/letsencrypt/live/asmith15.ops345.ca/fullchain.pem
Your key file has been saved at:
/etc/letsencrypt/live/asmith15.ops345.ca/privkey.pem
Your cert will expire on 2022-02-16. To obtain a new or tweaked
version of this certificate in the future, simply run certbot
again. To non-interactively renew *all* of your certificates, run
"certbot renew"
- Your account credentials have been saved in your Certbot
configuration directory at /etc/letsencrypt. You should make a
secure backup of this folder now. This configuration directory will
also contain certificates and private keys obtained by Certbot so
making regular backups of this folder is ideal.
- If you like Certbot, please consider supporting our work by:

You have new mail in /var/mail/root
root@p51:/home/andrew# cp /etc/letsencrypt/live/asmith15.ops345.ca/cert.pem ~andrew/prog/seneca/ops345/new/keys/asmith15.ops345.ca.cert.pem
root@p51:/home/andrew# cp /etc/letsencrypt/live/asmith15.ops345.ca/privkey.pem ~andrew/prog/seneca/ops345/new/keys/asmith15.ops345.ca.key.pem
root@p51:/home/andrew# chown andrew ~andrew/prog/seneca/ops345/new/keys/asmith15.ops345.ca.*
root@p51:/home/andrew# exit
- The file in /etc/letsencrypt/live/asmith15.ops345.ca/privkey.pem is what a CA would send you after you paid them. This one is free but it expires in 90 days, which is good enough for this course.
- Get Apache to use the key:
- /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf ServerName asmith15.ops345.ca:80
- yum install mod_ssl
- scp -P 2211 -i keys/ssh/ops345-all-aws-machines.pem keys/asmith15.ops345.ca.* andrew@34.202.103.43:~
- [root@www andrew]# cp asmith15.ops345.ca.cert.pem /etc/pki/tls/certs/
- [root@www andrew]# cp asmith15.ops345.ca.key.pem /etc/pki/tls/private/
- /etc/httpd/conf.d/ssl.conf
- SSLCertificateFile /etc/pki/tls/certs/asmith15.ops345.ca.cert.pem
- SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/pki/tls/private/asmith15.ops345.ca.key.pem
- restart apache, confirm no errors
- Edit ops345sgprivate, add https
- Edit ops345sg, add https
- On router: iptables -t nat -I PREROUTING 2 -p tcp --dport 443 -j DNAT --to 10.3.45.11:443
- On www: iptables -I INPUT 4 -p tcp --dport 443 -j ACCEPT
- Test with firefox https. www gives a warning because the certificate is not for that FQDN. fix it for homework.
