DBI::ProxyServer(3)                  User Contributed Perl Documentation                 DBI::ProxyServer(3)



NAME
       DBI::ProxyServer - a server for the DBD::Proxy driver

SYNOPSIS
           use DBI::ProxyServer;
           DBI::ProxyServer::main(@ARGV);

DESCRIPTION
       DBI::Proxy Server is a module for implementing a proxy for the DBI proxy driver, DBD::Proxy. It
       allows access to databases over the network if the DBMS does not offer networked operations. But the
       proxy server might be useful for you, even if you have a DBMS with integrated network functionality:
       It can be used as a DBI proxy in a firewalled environment.

       DBI::ProxyServer runs as a daemon on the machine with the DBMS or on the firewall. The client
       connects to the agent using the DBI driver DBD::Proxy, thus in the exactly same way than using
       DBD::mysql, DBD::mSQL or any other DBI driver.

       The agent is implemented as a RPC::PlServer application. Thus you have access to all the
       possibilities of this module, in particular encryption and a similar configuration file.
       DBI::ProxyServer adds the possibility of query restrictions: You can define a set of queries that a
       client may execute and restrict access to those. (Requires a DBI driver that supports parameter
       binding.) See "CONFIGURATION FILE".

       The provided driver script, dbiproxy, may either be used as it is or used as the basis for a local
       version modified to meet your needs.

OPTIONS
       When calling the DBI::ProxyServer::main() function, you supply an array of options. These options are
       parsed by the Getopt::Long module.  The ProxyServer inherits all of RPC::PlServer's and hence
       Net::Daemon's options and option handling, in particular the ability to read options from either the
       command line or a config file. See RPC::PlServer. See Net::Daemon. Available options include

       chroot (--chroot=dir)
           (UNIX only)  After doing a bind(), change root directory to the given directory by doing a
           chroot(). This is useful for security, but it restricts the environment a lot. For example, you
           need to load DBI drivers in the config file or you have to create hard links to Unix sockets, if
           your drivers are using them. For example, with MySQL, a config file might contain the following
           lines:

               my $rootdir = '/var/dbiproxy';
               my $unixsockdir = '/tmp';
               my $unixsockfile = 'mysql.sock';
               foreach $dir ($rootdir, "$rootdir$unixsockdir") {
                   mkdir 0755, $dir;
               }
               link("$unixsockdir/$unixsockfile",
                    "$rootdir$unixsockdir/$unixsockfile");
               require DBD::mysql;

               {
                   'chroot' => $rootdir,
                   ...
               }

           If you don't know chroot(), think of an FTP server where you can see a certain directory tree
           only after logging in. See also the --group and --user options.

       clients
           An array ref with a list of clients. Clients are hash refs, the attributes accept (0 for denying
           access and 1 for permitting) and mask, a Perl regular expression for the clients IP number or its
           host name.

       configfile (--configfile=file)
           Config files are assumed to return a single hash ref that overrides the arguments of the new
           method. However, command line arguments in turn take precedence over the config file. See the
           "CONFIGURATION FILE" section below for details on the config file.

       debug (--debug)
           Turn debugging mode on. Mainly this asserts that logging messages of level "debug" are created.

       facility (--facility=mode)
           (UNIX only) Facility to use for Sys::Syslog. The default is daemon.

       group (--group=gid)
           After doing a bind(), change the real and effective GID to the given.  This is useful, if you
           want your server to bind to a privileged port (<1024), but don't want the server to execute as
           root. See also the --user option.

           GID's can be passed as group names or numeric values.

       localaddr (--localaddr=ip)
           By default a daemon is listening to any IP number that a machine has. This attribute allows to
           restrict the server to the given IP number.

       localport (--localport=port)
           This attribute sets the port on which the daemon is listening. It must be given somehow, as
           there's no default.

       logfile (--logfile=file)
           Be default logging messages will be written to the syslog (Unix) or to the event log (Windows
           NT). On other operating systems you need to specify a log file. The special value "STDERR" forces
           logging to stderr. See Net::Daemon::Log for details.

       mode (--mode=modename)
           The server can run in three different modes, depending on the environment.

           If you are running Perl 5.005 and did compile it for threads, then the server will create a new
           thread for each connection. The thread will execute the server's Run() method and then terminate.
           This mode is the default, you can force it with "--mode=threads".

           If threads are not available, but you have a working fork(), then the server will behave similar
           by creating a new process for each connection.  This mode will be used automatically in the
           absence of threads or if you use the "--mode=fork" option.

           Finally there's a single-connection mode: If the server has accepted a connection, he will enter
           the Run() method. No other connections are accepted until the Run() method returns (if the client
           disconnects).  This operation mode is useful if you have neither threads nor fork(), for example
           on the Macintosh. For debugging purposes you can force this mode with "--mode=single".

       pidfile (--pidfile=file)
           (UNIX only) If this option is present, a PID file will be created at the given location. Default
           is to not create a pidfile.

       user (--user=uid)
           After doing a bind(), change the real and effective UID to the given.  This is useful, if you
           want your server to bind to a privileged port (<1024), but don't want the server to execute as
           root. See also the --group and the --chroot options.

           UID's can be passed as group names or numeric values.

       version (--version)
           Suppresses startup of the server; instead the version string will be printed and the program
           exits immediately.

SHUTDOWN
       DBI::ProxyServer is built on RPC::PlServer which is, in turn, built on Net::Daemon.

       You should refer to Net::Daemon for how to shutdown the server, except that you can't because it's
       not currently documented there (as of v0.43).  The bottom-line is that it seems that there's no
       support for graceful shutdown.

CONFIGURATION FILE
       The configuration file is just that of RPC::PlServer or Net::Daemon with some additional attributes
       in the client list.

       The config file is a Perl script. At the top of the file you may include arbitrary Perl source, for
       example load drivers at the start (useful to enhance performance), prepare a chroot environment and
       so on.

       The important thing is that you finally return a hash ref of option name/value pairs. The possible
       options are listed above.

       All possibilities of Net::Daemon and RPC::PlServer apply, in particular

       Host and/or User dependent access control
       Host and/or User dependent encryption
       Changing UID and/or GID after binding to the port
       Running in a chroot() environment

       Additionally the server offers you query restrictions. Suggest the following client list:

           'clients' => [
               { 'mask' => '^admin\.company\.com$',
                 'accept' => 1,
                 'users' => [ 'root', 'wwwrun' ],
               },
               {
                 'mask' => '^admin\.company\.com$',
                 'accept' => 1,
                 'users' => [ 'root', 'wwwrun' ],
                 'sql' => {
                      'select' => 'SELECT * FROM foo',
                      'insert' => 'INSERT INTO foo VALUES (?, ?, ?)'
                      }
               }

       then only the users root and wwwrun may connect from admin.company.com, executing arbitrary queries,
       but only wwwrun may connect from other hosts and is restricted to

           $sth->prepare("select");

       or

           $sth->prepare("insert");

       which in fact are "SELECT * FROM foo" or "INSERT INTO foo VALUES (?, ?, ?)".

Proxyserver Configuration file (bigger example)
       This section tells you how to restrict a DBI-Proxy: Not every user from every workstation shall be
       able to execute every query.

       There is a perl program "dbiproxy" which runs on a machine which is able to connect to all the
       databases we wish to reach. All Perl-DBD-drivers must be installed on this machine. You can also
       reach databases for which drivers are not available on the machine where you run the program querying
       the database, e.g. ask MS-Access-database from Linux.

       Create a configuration file "proxy_oracle.cfg" at the dbproxy-server:

           {
               # This shall run in a shell or a DOS-window
               # facility => 'daemon',
               pidfile => 'your_dbiproxy.pid',
               logfile => 1,
               debug => 0,
               mode => 'single',
               localport => '12400',

               # Access control, the first match in this list wins!
               # So the order is important
               clients => [
                       # hint to organize:
                       # the most specialized rules for single machines/users are 1st
                       # then the denying rules
                       # the the rules about whole networks

                       # rule: internal_webserver
                       # desc: to get statistical information
                       {
                               # this IP-address only is meant
                               mask => '^10\.95\.81\.243$',
                               # accept (not defer) connections like this
                               accept => 1,
                               # only users from this list
                               # are allowed to log on
                               users => [ 'informationdesk' ],
                               # only this statistical query is allowed
                               # to get results for a web-query
                               sql => {
                                       alive => 'select count(*) from dual',
                                       statistic_area => 'select count(*) from e01admin.e01e203 where geb_bezei like ?',
                               }
                       },

                       # rule: internal_bad_guy_1
                       {
                               mask => '^10\.95\.81\.1$',
                               accept => 0,
                       },

                       # rule: employee_workplace
                       # desc: get detailled information
                       {
                               # any IP-address is meant here
                               mask => '^10\.95\.81\.(\d+)$',
                               # accept (not defer) connections like this
                               accept => 1,
                               # only users from this list
                               # are allowed to log on
                               users => [ 'informationdesk', 'lippmann' ],
                               # all these queries are allowed:
                               sql => {
                                       search_city => 'select ort_nr, plz, ort from e01admin.e01e200 where plz like ?',
                                       search_area => 'select gebiettyp, geb_bezei from e01admin.e01e203 where geb_bezei like ? or geb_bezei like ?',
                               }
                       },

                       # rule: internal_bad_guy_2
                       # This does NOT work, because rule "employee_workplace" hits
                       # with its ip-address-mask of the whole network
                       {
                               # don't accept connection from this ip-address
                               mask => '^10\.95\.81\.5$',
                               accept => 0,
                       }
               ]
           }

       Start the proxyserver like this:

               rem well-set Oracle_home needed for Oracle
               set ORACLE_HOME=d:\oracle\ora81
               dbiproxy --configfile proxy_oracle.cfg

   Testing the connection from a remote machine
       Call a program "dbish" from your commandline. I take the machine from rule "internal_webserver"

               dbish "dbi:Proxy:hostname=oracle.zdf;port=12400;dsn=dbi:Oracle:e01" informationdesk xxx

       There will be a shell-prompt:

               informationdesk@dbi...> alive

               Current statement buffer (enter '/'...):
               alive

               informationdesk@dbi...> /
               COUNT(*)
               '1'
               [1 rows of 1 fields returned]

   Testing the connection with a perl-script
       Create a perl-script like this:

               # file: oratest.pl
               # call me like this: perl oratest.pl user password

               use strict;
               use DBI;

               my $user = shift || die "Usage: $0 user password";
               my $pass = shift || die "Usage: $0 user password";
               my $config = {
                       dsn_at_proxy => "dbi:Oracle:e01",
                       proxy => "hostname=oechsle.zdf;port=12400",
               };
               my $dsn = sprintf "dbi:Proxy:%s;dsn=%s",
                       $config->{proxy},
                       $config->{dsn_at_proxy};

               my $dbh = DBI->connect( $dsn, $user, $pass )
                       || die "connect did not work: $DBI::errstr";

               my $sql = "search_city";
               printf "%s\n%s\n%s\n", "="x40, $sql, "="x40;
               my $cur = $dbh->prepare($sql);
               $cur->bind_param(1,'905%');
               &show_result ($cur);

               my $sql = "search_area";
               printf "%s\n%s\n%s\n", "="x40, $sql, "="x40;
               my $cur = $dbh->prepare($sql);
               $cur->bind_param(1,'Pfarr%');
               $cur->bind_param(2,'Bronnamberg%');
               &show_result ($cur);

               my $sql = "statistic_area";
               printf "%s\n%s\n%s\n", "="x40, $sql, "="x40;
               my $cur = $dbh->prepare($sql);
               $cur->bind_param(1,'Pfarr%');
               &show_result ($cur);

               $dbh->disconnect;
               exit;


               sub show_result {
                       my $cur = shift;
                       unless ($cur->execute()) {
                               print "Could not execute\n";
                               return;
                       }

                       my $rownum = 0;
                       while (my @row = $cur->fetchrow_array()) {
                               printf "Row is: %s\n", join(", ",@row);
                               if ($rownum++ > 5) {
                                       print "... and so on\n";
                                       last;
                               }
                       }
                       $cur->finish;
               }

   How the configuration works
       The most important section to control access to your dbi-proxy is "client=>" in the file
       "proxy_oracle.cfg":

       Controlling which person at which machine is allowed to access

       •   "mask" is a perl regular expression against the plain ip-address of the machine which wishes to
           connect _or_ the reverse-lookup from a nameserver.

       •   "accept" tells the dbiproxy-server wether ip-adresse like in "mask" are allowed to connect or not
           (0/1)

       •   "users" is a reference to a list of usernames which must be matched, this is NOT a regular
           expression.

       Controlling which SQL-statements are allowed

       You can put every SQL-statement you like in simply ommiting "sql => ...", but the more important
       thing is to restrict the connection so that only allowed queries are possible.

       If you include an sql-section in your config-file like this:

               sql => {
                       alive => 'select count(*) from dual',
                       statistic_area => 'select count(*) from e01admin.e01e203 where geb_bezei like ?',
               }

       The user is allowed to put two queries against the dbi-proxy. The queries are _not_ "select
       count(*)...", the queries are "alive" and "statistic_area"! These keywords are replaced by the real
       query. So you can run a query for "alive":

               my $sql = "alive";
               my $cur = $dbh->prepare($sql);
               ...

       The flexibility is that you can put parameters in the where-part of the query so the query are not
       static. Simply replace a value in the where-part of the query through a question mark and bind it as
       a parameter to the query.

               my $sql = "statistic_area";
               my $cur = $dbh->prepare($sql);
               $cur->bind_param(1,'905%');
               # A second parameter would be called like this:
               # $cur->bind_param(2,'98%');

       The result is this query:

               select count(*) from e01admin.e01e203
               where geb_bezei like '905%'

       Don't try to put parameters into the sql-query like this:

               # Does not work like you think.
               # Only the first word of the query is parsed,
               # so it's changed to "statistic_area", the rest is omitted.
               # You _have_ to work with $cur->bind_param.
               my $sql = "statistic_area 905%";
               my $cur = $dbh->prepare($sql);
               ...

   Problems
       •   I don't know how to restrict users to special databases.

       •   I don't know how to pass query-parameters via dbish
