09:55 JBoyer E'rgreen e'ryday
10:08 berick true, but would that it were the Eve of Erg Re
10:23 Dyrcona Google's AI is dumb. I'm search for simple2zoom and it keeps suggesting that I'm searching for Zoom instead.
10:23 Dyrcona A.I. = Algorithmic Imitation (Not mine.)
10:24 csharp_ Dyrcona++ # anyway
10:27 Dyrcona OK, so simple2zoom can send a username and password to a URL, but looks like it's fixed in the config and cannot be prompted for.
10:28 * Dyrcona is looking into the possibility of password-protecting our Z39.50 server for ..... reasons.. *cough* *mumble*
10:30 Dyrcona Oh wait, I missed this bit: "the special strings "{user}" and "{pass}", which are substituted with the username and password supplied in the Init request."
10:33 * Dyrcona stops looking believing it to be possible, but not necessarily easy.
10:33 Dyrcona ...nor desirable.
10:48 * Dyrcona considers trying it on a test system, but it's Friday and no one has actually asked for it. It's just speculative based on something a vendor said.
10:51 Dyrcona And, that's cool: sending usernames and passwords in the clear, like it's 1992.
10:56 Dyrcona On an unrelated, but still Evergreen, note: I've noticed that the performance of the authority_authority_linker.pl can vary widely from one batch of records to another. I also supect that I have a couple just outright fail to start.
11:13 Dyrcona oof. I should probably truncate the 44GB log file and start over next week.
11:16 csharp_ Dyrcona: I'm also interested in the possibility of password-protecting z39.50 - it's the main reason I've never enabled our outward-facing one

11:45 Dyrcona csharp_: I think I can point the authenticaiton url in the simple2zoom config at the auth proxy. I don't know if that will actually work, though.
