(dle people, please read this...there is still some review work to do) Quoting Thomas Goirand (thomas@goirand.fr): > Hi, thanks a lot for this work. I review it, and I have nothing to say > about it, it's very good work. > > I tried the patch, but unfortunately, it didn't apply to our current CVS > version. So I have applied the patch manually to our current CVS. OK. Anyway, at the very end of the process, ie when the translation updates roudn will be completed (in about 12 days), I will send you a full patch with the complete files and the complete PO files. > > Attached is the new template and control file that should be used for > later use.

See my comments. > Template: dtc-xen/conf_soap_port > Type: string > Default: 8089 > _Description: Server port: > What port should it bind to? Default is 8089. > Please enter the port the server will bind to. Sounds incorrect. The first sentence should be dropped. The template should be: _Description: Server port: Please enter the port the server will bind to. Extended descriptions should never ever use the interrogative form. It is also suggested to avoid repeating the default value (after all, it appears anyway in the prompt). In a few templates later, I see that we left the "VPS" acronym without explanation. This is Not Good. I'll replace this with "VPS (Virtual Private Server)" > Template: dtc-xen/conf_info_finish_setup > Type: note > _Description: How to finish the install We reworded that to "Installation completion". The rationale is that note templates should not use full sentences as short descriptions. Indeed note templates should nearly never be used at all. That specific templates should indeed go in README.Debian. I did not enter this debate during the review and we also reviewed that note template. But expect another BR asking for the note to be removed..:-) > Template: dtc-xen/conf_vps_mountpoint > Type: string > Default: /var/lib/dtc-xen/mnt > _Description: VPS mountpoint: > In order to do the setup of the VPS it's managing, dtc-xen will mount LVM or > file loopback partition on the dom0 of your Xen server.

Should be reviewed. The writing style does not fit the writing style we used in the rewrite. Proposal: Template: dtc-xen/conf_vps_mountpoint Type: string Default: /var/lib/dtc-xen/mnt _Description: VPS mountpoint: In order to setup the managed Virtual Private Server (VPS), dtc-xen will mount the LVM or file loopback partition on the dom0 of the Xen server. . Please enter the mount point path. .

# These templates have been reviewed by the debian-l10n-english # team # # If modifications/additions/rewording are needed, please ask # for an advice to debian-l10n-english@lists.debian.org # # Even minor modifications require translation updates and such # changes should be coordinated with translators and reviewers. Template: dtc-xen/conf_soap_port Type: string Default: 8089 _Description: Server port: Please enter the port the server will bind to. Template: dtc-xen/conf_soap_login Type: string Default: dtc-xen _Description: SOAP server login: Dtc-xen will bind a SOAP Python server (to which a dtc panel can connect, in order to start, stop, create and destroy a Virtual Private Server). . Please enter the login name to connect to the server. Template: dtc-xen/conf_soap_pass Type: password Default: dtc-xen _Description: SOAP server pass: Dtc-xen will generate a .htpasswd file for the login you have just configured. . Please enter the password to use in that file. Template: dtc-xen/conf_soap_domain_name Type: string Default: example.com _Description: Server hostname: Please enter the domain name for the dtc-xen server. This will be used as a part of the URL by the SOAP dtc panel client. Template: dtc-xen/conf_node_number Type: string Default: 0101 _Description: VPS Server node number: Please enter the value to use to set up VPS (Virtual Private Server) numbering. . Assuming this value is 'XXXX', the node number will be 'xenXXXXYY', YY being the VPS number itself (xenYY). This node number must be 4 or 5 characters long. . As a consequence of this choice, the server's hostname will be nodeXXXX.example.com (which you can later add in your DTC control panel). Template: dtc-xen/conf_debian_repository Type: string Default: ftp://ftp.us.debian.org/debian _Description: Debian repository for VPS creation: Please enter the repository to use for creating the VPS (Virtual Private Server). The current /etc/apt/sources.list file will be copied the created VPS so the repository you enter here will be used only during the debootstrap stage of the VPS creation. Template: dtc-xen/conf_netmask Type: string Default: 255.255.255.0 _Description: Network mask for the VPS: Please enter the network mask to use in the created Virtual Private Server's network settings. Template: dtc-xen/conf_network Type: string Default: 192.168.60.0 _Description: Network address for the VPS: Please enter the network address to use in the created Virtual Private Server's network settings. Template: dtc-xen/conf_broadcast Type: string Default: 192.168.60.255 _Description: Broadcast address for the VPS: Please enter the network broadcast address to use in the created Virtual Private Server's network settings. Template: dtc-xen/conf_gateway Type: string Default: 192.168.60.254 _Description: Gateway address for the VPS: Please enter the network gateway address to use in the created Virtual Private Server's network settings. Template: dtc-xen/conf_linux_kernel_name Type: string Default: 2.6.16.27-xenU _Description: Xen kernel release name: Please enter the kernel version number as it appears with the 'uname -a' command. . A kernel domU with that name must be located in /boot (example: vmlinuz-2.6.16.27-xenU) and its corresponding modules must be in /lib/modules. Template: dtc-xen/conf_lvm_name Type: string Default: lvm1 _Description: Volume group to create VPS in: Dtc-xen creates physical partitions in an existing LVM volume group . Please enter that volume group name. The volume group size must fit all the virtual machiness you will set up later on this server. If you don't want to use LVM (because you don't care if loopback is slower), leave this setting to the default value. Template: dtc-xen/conf_info_finish_setup Type: note _Description: Installation completion To finish the installation, you need to launch /usr/sbin/dtc-xen_finish_install. . This script will remove port forwarding from the current sshd_config file and add the grant of xm console to the group xenusers so that users can login to the physical console. It will then try to download the files needed to setup Gentoo and CentOS into the virtual machines. . Please note that the system is currently safe (connections to a physical console as xenXX will be rejected because the /etc/sudoers is not changed), but a basic user won't be able to log into his physical console using ssh. Template: dtc-xen/conf_vps_mountpoint Type: string Default: /var/lib/dtc-xen/mnt _Description: VPS mountpoint: In order to setup the managed Virtual Private Server (VPS), dtc-xen will mount the LVM or file loopback partition on the dom0 of the Xen server. . Please enter the mount point path. . This information will also be used to automatically set the /etc/fstab mount points, allowing to maintain and mount the VPS faster.
