This article will explain how to set up a secure web server with NodeJS which only accepts connection from users with SSL certificates that you have signed. This is an efficient way to ensure that no other people are able to access the web server, without building a login system which will be significantly weaker.

I will not explain how to create a certificate authority (CA), create certificates or sign them. If you need to read up on this, have a look at this excelent article on how to do it with OpenSSL (Mac and Linux): https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OpenSSL#Practical_OpenSSL_Usage It is also possible to do this on a Mac with the keychain application, and I assume it is possible on a Windows machine aswell.

Trying to chainload iPXE with full feature set from a lesser featured one, whilst still being able to boot non-supported cards with UNDI
ddns-update-style none;
deny bootp; #default
authoritative;
include "/etc/dhcp/ipxe-option-space.conf";
# GREEN (private network)
subnet 10.1.1.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
range 10.1.1.100 10.1.1.199;
option subnet-mask 255.255.255.0;

This allows you to use the following video streaming services outside of the US from your Mac without having to use a proxy or VPN, so no big bandwidth issues:

  • Hulu / HuluPlus
  • CBS
  • ABC
  • MTV
  • theWB
  • CW TV
  • Crackle
  • NBC

Bootstrapping full iPXE native menu with customizable default option with timeout (also includes working Ubuntu 12.04 preseed install)

Add the following chunk to your existing ISC dhcpd.conf file.

if exists user-class and ( option user-class = "iPXE" ) {
    filename "http://boot.smidsrod.lan/boot.ipxe";
}
else {
    filename "undionly.kpxe";
}
