Hi,
This is a port of the project
https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/compute-image-packages
In short, it allows machines hosted in GCE platform to respond to some
functionalities, e.g, it allows creation of a new user, startup/shutdown
scripts, network interface configuration using the GCE web console or
through the gcloud tool by reading metadatas from the server.
It would be nice to have this package in OpenBSD so people can install
it in a VM and use OpenBSD at Google Cloud Engine platform with ease as
in the other distros images.
The port is also available here
https://git.collabora.com/cgit/user/koike/openbsd-ports.git/log/
From DESCR:
Google Compute Engine offers scripts and daemons which runs in the
background and provides the following services:
- Accounts daemon to setup and manage user accounts, and to enable SSH
key based
authentication.
- Clock skew daemon to keep the system clock in sync after VM start and stop
events.
- Instance setup scripts to execute VM configuration scripts during boot.
- IP forwarding daemon that integrates network load balancing with
forwarding
rule changes into the guest.
- Metadata scripts to run user provided scripts at VM startup and shutdown.
- Network setup service to enable multiple network interfaces on boot.
I would appreciate if someone could review it and make any comments or
tell me that the package is OK.
Thanks
LN Koike
