SSL-Database-Proxy Installation Instructions ============================================ 1. Decompress the .tgz - File: gunzip sslproxy.tar.gz tar xf sslproxy.tar When you read this, you habe probably already done this. 2. Copy the Proxy-Server whereever you want it to be. It is recommended to create a new user-account for the Proxy-Server and copy the directory there: useradd -m sslproxy cp -R sslproxy /home/sslproxy 3. Edit the configuration-file sqlproxy.conf in the working dir of the Proxy-Server: databaseip: The Hostname or IP-Address of the Database-Server databaseport: The port-address of the database-server jdbcdriver: The JDBC-Driver-Class name jdbcname: The name of the driver logfile: The logfile loglevel: The logging level. 2 is highest serverport: The port-address of the proxy-server. 4. Copy the following file, that you can get from Sun, in the "class" directory: jnet.jar jcert.jar jsse.jar jce1_2_1.jar 5. Obtain the JDBC-Driver of you database. You can either extract the driver in the class dir using jar xf in the class dir, or you copy the jar-file in the class-dir and edit the start.sh shell-script to include the jar-file in the CLASSPATH. 5. Make sure you are in the directory where the sqlproxy.conf file is. Also make sure that you are NOT the superuser! Then start the server with the start.sh script. Optionally you can edit the start.sh script to fit your needs, for examlple if you want to see some debugging output, you can change the line nohup java de.leechuck.java.proxy.server.MultiProxy & to java de.leechuck.java.proxy.server.MultiProxy Then your process will have a controlling terminal.
