oui database update via proxy [solved]

[mf2hd]

Hallo,

our cacti installation has internet access only via http proxy, so the oui database refresh doesn´t work.

I patched mactrack_functions.php and hardcoded the proxy. Replace the following line in function import_oui_database:

Code: Select all

	$oui_database = file($oui_file);

with

Code: Select all

/* ######################################################## */
/*  proxy hack
/* -------------------------------------------------------- */


	$rd_proxy = "tcp://10.10.10.1:3128";

	$rd_proxy_context = "";
	$rd_proxy_context = stream_context_create(Array(
		"http" => Array(
		
			"proxy" => $rd_proxy,
			"request_fulluri" => true)
		)
	); 


	$oui_database = file($oui_file,false,$rd_proxy_context);


	if ($type != "ui") print "<tr><td>";

	echo "Proxy for OUI Database Download $rd_proxy\n";

/* ######################################################## */

In the example above the proxy-host is 10.10.10.1 with proxy-port 3128. Our proxy doesn´t require authentication.

I am not a PHP programmer, so somebody should do this right (configurable, authentication ?). This hack works with Mactrack 2.9, PHP 5.2.12 and Cacti 0.8.8b.
