17:04 <bobon> Hi

17:05 <bobon> Thanks for the great software

17:07 <bobon> I installed Sandstorm on a server of my own, installed Gogs, tried to clone and was asked a password, unfortunately I've got none (using Email auth method)

17:11 <bobon> I tried searching for a solution but my Google skills must be rusted, couldn't find a firm answer, do I have to install an LDAP if I want to use Gogs with my Sandstorm installation ?

21:45 <xia0ben> Hello everyone !

21:46 <xia0ben> @kentonv : I am experiencing some problems trying to set up a sandstorm server on an internal server and making it accessible from another server that has a public IP address, through a VPN

21:46 <xia0ben> I'm using the sandcats.io DNS+HTTPS service

21:47 <xia0ben> But the thing is that it registers the internal IP address of the internal server

21:47 <xia0ben> And I cannot seem to find a find to make it register the public IP address of my other server

21:48 <xia0ben> I tried some workarounds, like exporting the BIND_IP global variable before installation, but to no avail

21:49 <xia0ben> Also tried to change it from the sandstorm.conf

21:49 <xia0ben> And restarting sandstorm

21:50 <xia0ben> But no success here either

21:50 <xia0ben> The only doc about using an internal server implies not using sandcats.io

21:50 <xia0ben> Which I cannot afford

21:51 <xia0ben> See : https://docs.sandstorm.io/en/latest/administering/faq/#how-do-i-use-sandstorm-with-an-internal-ip-address

21:57 <xia0ben> Any clues on this ? =)

22:03 <samba_> I think you should consider why you need sandstorm and what you mean when you say you cannot afford a standalone sandstorm instance

22:03 <samba_> a standalone sandstorm is just a sandstorm not using sandcats.io

22:04 <samba_> you may need to create a x509 CA

22:04 <samba_> just this

22:04 <samba_> or you can buy it for 40$

22:14 <sknebel> > But the thing is that it registers the internal IP address of the internal server <- if I understand how sandcats works correctly that shouldn't be possible. your sandcats.io subdomain really points to an internal IP address?

22:16 <sknebel> xia0ben: ^

22:20 <sknebel> sandcats points to whatever IP the update packets come from, so you should make sure to send traffic from the sandstorm host through the VPN as well

22:26 <xia0ben> Hi Sknebel !

22:26 <xia0ben> Thanks for your answer

22:26 <xia0ben> Its not that I can't afford a standalone sandstorm instance

22:28 <xia0ben> It is just that I was trying to migrate my existing instance

22:28 <xia0ben> That is on a not so powerful webserver

22:28 <xia0ben> To a physical computer @home

22:28 <xia0ben> Which is much more powerful

22:29 <xia0ben> And would have prefered to keep using my .sandcats.io domain

22:29 <xia0ben> cost being one of the reasons

22:29 <xia0ben> easy integration with Sandstorm being the other

22:44 <xia0ben> Actually your proposition of buying the wildcard ssl cert would solve everything

22:44 <xia0ben> And it made me remenber

22:45 <xia0ben> that I should just be more patient

22:45 <xia0ben> and wait for let's encrypt to support wildcard ssl

22:57 <xia0ben> Well, I just submitted an application to Symantec's Good Karma program for my organization : https://www.freessl.com/freessl/good-karma/

22:57 <xia0ben> We'll see how that turns out

22:57 <xia0ben> Anyway, thanks a lot for your time ;-)
