Project Description

ostatus is a command line tool designed to answer questions like "what deviations has my system from a fresh installed system", at least in term of installed packages.

Internally uses libsolv to simulate a fresh installation, based on the installed system roles and packages. The package and pattern list is later compared with the current system, to evaluate differences.

It also generates a hash key that can be used to compare systems. If two systems has the same key, they are considered equivalent, even if they come from different installation history.

Goal for this Hackweek

Beside pushing forward the project, I want to contribute a bit more in librpm.rs, that is a Rust binding for librpm, that is internally used by ostatus itself.

    Write an url shortener in Rust (And learn in the way) by szarate

    So I have 469.icu :), it's currently doing nothing... (and for sale) but in the meantime, I'd like to write an url shortener from scratch and deploy it on my own server

    SMB3 Server written entirely in Rust by dmulder

    Description

    Given the number of bugs frequently discovered in the Samba code caused by memory issues, it makes sense to re-write the smbd service purely in Rust code. Meanwhile, it would be wise to abandon backwards compatibility here with insecure protocol versions, and simply implement the SMB3 spec.

    Goals

    Get a simple server up and running and get it merged into upstream Samba (which now has Rust build support).

    Kanidm: A safe and modern IDM system by firstyear

    Kanidm is an IDM system written in Rust for modern systems authentication. The github repo has a detailed "getting started" on the readme.

    Kanidm Github

    In addition Kanidm has spawn a number of adjacent projects in the Rust ecosystem such as LDAP, Kerberos, Webauthn, and cryptography libraries.

    In this hack week, we'll be working on Quokca, a certificate authority that supports PKCS11/TPM storage of keys, issuance of PIV certificates, and ACME without the feature gatekeeping implemented by other CA's like smallstep.

    For anyone who wants to participate in Kanidm, we have documentation and developer guides which can help.

    I'm happy to help and share more, so please get in touch!
