[Dillo-dev]Re: Remote control of displayed URL

by Ian Walberg

Jorge, I have a kiosk type setup where I need to be able to reset dillo to a given URL from another programme and then allow the user to navigate on their own. I really do not care how this is achieved but I do not want to restart dilio with a specific URL each time.

On another note, I built and posted the rest of the RPMs last night, except for Mandrake 9.1 PPC (I need to drag an old machine out of the closet and hook it up). I plan on installing a copy of Mandrake 10 or, if I can get it, SuSE 9.1 sometime in the next two weeks, which should bring those more up to date.

Hi, Here's the https-relevant part of a private email: ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Wed, 7 Jul 2004 10:25:24 -0400 (CLT) From: Jorge Arellano Cid <jcid(a)dillo.org> To: Brett Wynkoop <wynkoop(a)wynn.com> Subject: Re: dillo 0.8.2rc2 On Wed, 7 Jul 2004, Brett Wynkoop wrote: > [...] > I was surprised that there is no SSL support.

The problem is that our former plugin didn't do certificate authentication (among other things commented in the code). As the Dillo project takes security seriously, it was withdrawn from the newer releases... In other words, the https dpi allowed the user to see https URLs, but there was no security backing it. I know that some big browsers had the same bug for years, before it was made public. This allowed for instance, man-in-the-middle attacks by faking the destination site. Https is a very complex matter, and I'd rather prefer not to assert ours will be flawless. The least we can do is not to release one we know is broken. I hope we can make a good https dpi soon. If you want to use it anyway, assuming the risks, just get the https.c from 0.8.0 and drop it into the new tree. You will not even be able to post or send forms, but it'll allow to read some https forums. Atentamente Jorge.-

I'll be out most of this evening (and tomorrow evening), so I built a few RPMs on my lunch hour and posted them: - Red Hat 8-9 & Fedora Core 1-2 (not tested on RH8 yet, but it should work) - Conectiva 9 - Mandrake 9.2 - SuSE 9.0 - Yellow Dog 3 I left several UML instances compiling when I headed back to work, so they should be ready when I get home.

Good question... No, just stuff like the text switch from "0.8.2-rc2" to "0.8.2". Cheers Jorge.-

[Dillo-dev]dillo-0.8.2

by Jorge Arellano Cid

Hi guys, I just uploaded the new dillo-0.8.2 to our site. It will be announced just after Kelson and Phil can upgrade the Dillo packages they make, and after Sebastian and I finish setting a much requested donations link. Thanks to all of you that have asked for a way to support the Dillo project. More about this later... Please download the new tarball and don't hesitate to write if you find a glitch. It may be still on time to fix (before the announcement). Best Jorge.-
