DoorJam is the meatspace firewall for sudo room

Prerequisites

sudo aptitude install build-essential libusb-1.0-0-dev

npm install

Usage

Users swipe their access card in a Magtek USB magnetic swipe card reader and if the hash of their card data matches a hash in the access control file then a character is sent over serial to an arduino that then closes a relay for a number of seconds to open the door.

If the card is not recognized then its hash is logged in the failed_attempts file with the date and time of the attempt.

Swipe a new card and run the grant_access_to_last_failed_attempt.js script to grant people access.

Warning: If the last failed swipe was improperly registered, then you could potentially be granting access to one of several common error codes, rendering the system insecure. See the bottom of this README for common magstripe error code hashes to blacklist.

People seeking access can also swipe their own cards (at least 3x) and fill out the form at https://omnicommons.org/keys/

Recommended cards are Safeway, Peets, and other store membership cards. Hotel keycards do not work. Recommend that folks not use cards with identifying or otherwise valuable information such as credit cards.

Step-by-step:

  • Ensure you're on the local SSID peoplesopen.net or otherwise logged into room.sudoroom.org
  • You must be on a mac or linux machine with avahi-daemon installed
ssh [email protected] 

rwroot

tail -f /var_rw/failed_attempts
  • Swipe card three times
  • Ensure last 3 failed attempts match each other
./grant_access_to_last_attempt.js <name>
  • Check that card works!
roroot

Autostart on boot

With forever (autostart on fail)

sudo cp doorjam.initd.with-forever /etc/init.d/doorjam
sudo update-rc.d doorjam defaults

Now edit the /etc/init.d/doorjam file to ensure all paths are correct.

Without forever (no autostart on fail)

sudo cp doorjam.initd.no-forever /etc/init.d/doorjam
sudo update-rc.d doorjam defaults

Now edit the /etc/init.d/doorjam file to ensure all paths are correct.

Granting access remotely

Change the IP, path and :

ssh [email protected] "cd /root/doorjam; ./grant_access_to_last_attempt.js <name and contact info of new user>"

You can also use the sudo_grant_access.sh script, but you should edit it to suit your environment.

change /etc/bash.bashrc to remind you when the filesystem is not read-only:

PS1='${debian_chroot:+($debian_chroot)}\u@\h:\w$ '

PS1='${debian_chroot:+($debian_chroot)}\u@\hif grep "ec2c7555affb / ext4 rw" /proc/mounts > /dev/null; then echo \ FILESYSTEM IS WRITABLE, RUN roroot TO FIX; fi:\w$ '
