Installing Nginx Reverse Proxy on CentOS for Domino Our Experience

Over the past few weeks there has been a significant number of discussions about Domino and the lack of SHA-2 support.  Jesse Gallagher had an entire MWLUG 2014 session on this very topic.  When I ask Jesse to present on this topic, unbeknownst to me what a hot topic this would become and so timely.  First, IBM should have fixed these problems years ago.  For us this is a critical issue that if not addressed will kill the market for Domino. Thanks to Jess efforts and contributions, there is a workaround that he presented and published recently in a series of blog articles on this very topic.  His solution is to configure nginx as a reverse proxy for Domino so that SHA-2 certificates can be used with Domino. nginx is not just a Linux solution but can also be a Windows solution since it is available for the Windows platform. Jesse's article focused on setting up nginx reverse proxy on a Ubuntu server.  My comments here are about the di...

Open Source Impact on the ICS Community

I am a big user of open source technologies including, Linux, Twitter Bootstrap, Dojo, and many other open source tools.  Open source technology has had a huge impact on the ICS Community in general.  We are fortunate enough to have a number of sessions this year at MWLUG 2014 that includes open source technology as part of their presentation. So come join us in these sessions.   Open Source Technologies: Nginx, OpenSSL, Apache HTTP Server Load Balancing, Failover, and More With Nginx,  Jesse Gallagher,  CTO,  I Know Some Guys, LLC Putting an alternative web server in front of your Domino installation gives you a tremendous amount of flexibility and new abilities.

The same concepts will apply to Apache and IBM HTTP Server.   Open Source Technologies: An...

Ubuntu 10.04 is Now Available

Ubuntu 10.04 LTS is now available after a small delay. This is the Long Term Support version. The full version of the Ubuntu Server is free. I have been moving all my servers to Ubuntu. Ubuntu 10.04 LTS includes new features like Ubuntu Enterprise Cloud (UEC) that allows you to build your own private cloud at a relatively low cost. I will be testing it out with Domino 8.51 in the near future and will let you know how that went. I am still waiting for Quickr Domino for Linux. When that comes out I can then phase out all my Windows servers.
