firefox bookmark synchronisation

Firstly install foxmarks – this provides a firefox addon which allows you to upload/sync your bookmarks with foxmarks site, however it’s nice that they’ve also added a way by which you can add your own server (either ftp, http, or https) to upload them too!

This is as simple as configuring webDAV:-


 <Location /webdav>
           DAV             On
           AuthType        Digest
           AuthName        "webdav-example"
           AuthDigestFile  /home/www/digest-password
           Require         valid-user
 </Location>

Then configure the foxmarks client to use your username/password and the URL that you’ve set up above – when you hit sync you should then see a foxmarks.xml in your webdav’ed directory

Suppression of authentication log entries:-

<Exception>
exception.id=(“authentication_redirect_from_virtual_host”,
“authentication_redirect_to_virtual_host”, “authentication_failed”)
access_log[main](no)

And to get a dump of the config, though the “unencrypted” option doesn’t seem to work on SGOS 4.2.3

 configure t
 line-vty
 length 0
 show version
 show status
 show configuration with-keyrings unencrypted
 length 80
 exit
 exit
 exit

Had a very good time down at Biggin Hill this weekend, took a few pictures (unfortunately didn’t get close enough to the front to get some nice ones during the little scenarios the RAF put on). Typically got a little red, despite copious amounts of factor 25 suncream – just need to find some factor 50 methinks!
