Nodes

This one, before I started sticking Node.js in there.

WARNING! in the codebase node listens on 3000. In production it listens on 3007.

This is a successful deployment except change node's listening from 3000 to 3007:

piousbox@piousbox-laptop:~/projects/rails-quick-start$ knife node show app_server_21

The load balancer:

Utils

Remember the virtual site for combining a node backend into some other service?

<VirtualHost *:3098>

  ProxyVia On
  ProxyPreserveHost On
  <proxy>

  ProxyPassReverse /api/ http://localhost:3000/
  ProxyPass / http://localhost:8000/ connectiontimeout=15 timeout=45
  ProxyPassReverse / http://localhost:8000/

Establish a simple ssh port forward

10.0.0.x is public, 10.0.1.x is private. Do:

sudo sysctl net.ipv4.ip_forward=1
sudo iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp -d 10.0.0.229 --dport 2270 -j DNAT --to-destination 10.0.1.224:22
sudo iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -j MASQUERADE

Reset Chef UI Password

sudo -u opscode-pgsql  /opt/chef-server/embedded/bin/psql opscode_chef
update osc_users set hashed_password = '$2a$12$y31Wno2MKiGXS3FSgVg5UunKG48gJz0pRV//RMy1osDxVbrb0On4W' , salt ='$2a$12$y31Wno2MKiGXS3FSgVg5Uu' where username ='admin';

and login with user 'admin' and password 'password'.
