Log format
The F-TICKS format implemented by this log appender is a generalization of the eduroam F-TICKS format:
| Code Block |
|---|
'F-TICKS/' federationIdentifier '/' version *('#' attribute '=' value ) '#'
|
In SWAMID federationIdentifier is 'SWAMID' and version is '21.0'.
The attributes exposed are:
Name | Description |
|---|---|
TS | the login time stamp |
RP | the relying party entityID |
AP | the asserting party entityID (typcially the IdP) |
PN | a sha256-hash of the local principal name and a unique key |
AM | the authentication method URN |
The unique key is stored in a key file and is automatically generated if missing. If this key is lost or reset then all local principal names will appear to have changed to analysis tools so avoid this!
...
The instruction is know to work for Shibboleth Identity Provider version

Configuration
Configuration is done in loggingidp.xmlproperties:
Appender
Salt
Use the following command to generate a saltAdd an appender definition to logging.xml close to where the other appenders are.
| Code Block |
|---|
<appender name="IDP_FTICKS" class="net.nordu.logback.FTicksAppender">
<syslogHost>syslog.swamid.se</syslogHost>
<federationIdentifier>SWAMID</federationIdentifier>
<version>2.0</version>
<keyFile>/opt/shibboleth-idp/conf/fticks-key.txt</keyFile>
</appender>
|
Change the keyFile to point to where you want to store your random key for protecting local principal names.
openssl rand -base64 36 2>/dev/null |
| Warning |

Do not lose this salt |

Do not loose this file once you've started to generate logs |

. If this salt is lost or reset then all local principal names will appear to have changed to analysis tools so avoid this! |

logging
Add the appender to the Shibboleth-Audit logger by changing
| Code Block |
|---|
<logger name="Shibboleth-Audit" level="ALL">
<appender-ref ref="IDP_AUDIT" />
</logger>
|
to
| Code Block |
|---|
<logger name="Shibboleth-Audit" level="ALL">
<appender-ref ref="IDP_AUDIT" />
<appender-ref ref="IDP_FTICKS" />
</logger>
|
This assumes that you haven't changed logging.xml from the default.
Build software
To build fticks, you need git, maven and Java JDK.
| Code Block | ||
|---|---|---|
| ||
# git clone git://github.com/leifj/ndn-shib-fticks.git
# cd ndn-shib-fticks
# mvn
... build finishes ...
|
| Code Block | ||
|---|---|---|
| ||
$ cd Desktop
$ git clone git://github.com/leifj/ndn-shib-fticks.git
$ cd ndn-shib-fticks
$ export JAVA_HOME="/c/Program Files (x86)/Java/jdk1.7.0_25"
$ /c/apache-maven-3.1.0/bin/mvn
... build finishes ...
|
The target directory should contain a jar-file. This is what you need for the next step.
