Name

ccgfs-stunnel-pull --- ccgfs Stunnel "pull" transport

Syntax

ccgfs-stunnel-pull -s srcspec -m mountpoint

Examples

ccgfs-stunnel-pull -s ftp.foobar.com:13337 -m /ftp

Description

ccgfs-stunnel-pull establishes an SSL connection to the source host usingstunnel and runs the mount daemon on the local side.

At the time of writing, there is no way to specify the source directory on thepull side, since neither the storage nor mount daemon itself deal with that.(For example, ssh will do this in ccgfs-ssh-{pull,push}.) The stunnel serverdoes not have a way to dynamically take options like ssh. This may or may notbe perceived as a feature. Restricting clients to a fixed directory seems AGood Idea on public servers. Hence, the first option is currently ignored, butneeds to be present for ccgfs-super to work.

The storage-side stunnel configuration looks like this:

        [ccgfs-pull]        accept   = 13337        exec     = /usr/sbin/ccgfs-storage        execargs = ccgfs-storage /SRCPATH
