What's new?

In addition to the usual bug fixes, the following features have been implemented:

Session Handling

The SessionManager has been expanded with a second type of session token.
This token is significantly longer than the previously introduced 16-byte token,
as it contains data about the current session.
Embedded data includes the user ID, user permissions, an expiration timestamp,
and the previously known short token type.
The data is compressed and signed with the SessionManager's private RSA key.

For local verification, a "SessionVerifier" service has been added to the kernel.
This service requires the public RSA key to verify the token.
The key can be stored in the configuration of individual nodes.
If not, the SessionManager automatically retrieves the key when the node starts.

The local SessionVerifier checks the token and extracts the necessary data, saving a request to the SessionManager.

The previous method of token usage remains supported.
It is now also possible to pass a message with a short session token to the verifier.
The service retrieves the long token from a cache or sends a request to the SessionManager.
In case of an error (e.g., session expired or unknown), the submitted message is returned to the sender with an error code.
If successful, the message is resent, this time with the long token.

NodeManager

The NodeManager web application has been enhanced with additional dialogs for
configuring remote nodes, allowing nodes that are not accessible via SSH to be configured.


Have a great time!

Welcome to the Sillysky Software Laboratories Forum!

Hello, my name is Michael Hoppe, and I'm excited to introduce you to my work at Sillysky Software Laboratories. For over 30 years, I have been developing software for a wide range of companies, driven by a passion for distributed systems and event processing.

The roots of nyssr.net stretch back to the early 90s when I first started working on its foundations as part of a catalog software project. The initial versions laid a foundation that I later adapted successfully in large enterprises. Over the years, nyssr.net has continued to grow: it has been restructured, refined, and modernized to meet today's demands. The result is a system that not only performs exceptionally well but is also enjoyable to work with.

I'm often struck by how many complex systems are still built with outdated and often inadequate technologies and protocols like HTTP – as if there were no alternatives. Nyssr.net is my contribution to offering a different perspective on the design of modern, connected systems.

In this first step, I've decided to make nyssr.net publicly accessible. For now, it is not open source, as I want to maintain control over its development and ensure quality. Non-commercial use is free, while commercial applications require a license fee to allow me to sustainably provide support and future enhancements.

If you have any questions about nyssr.net or RemoteSkin, please feel free to ask in this thread. I look forward to engaging with you and hope this forum will become a valuable platform for discussions and ideas around my software!

Looking forward to connecting with you – welcome aboard!
