Navicat is a commercial database management tool that is relatively affordable as compared to other popular tools in the same category It is developed to manage different databases using a graphical user interface rather command line which ultimately reduces the intricacies of database system administration. It has been designed to address different sort of people in the industry such as administrators, developers, and small and medium-sized businesses.
With the help of Graphical use interface (GUI) the newbies or leaners can also be able to manage databases like a professional, indeed S/he should have some basic knowledge. It lets you create, organize, access and share information in a safe and easy way. Furthermore, it allows users to connect to any local or remote server, providing useful database tools such as data models, data transfer, data synchronization, structure synchronization, import, export, backup, restore; report creation tools, and plans to assist with data management.
Also, it offers a single premium package called Navicat Premium, comprises capabilities to connect all popular database systems such as MySQL, MariaDB, MongoDB, SQL Server, SQLite, Oracle and PostgreSQL. However, if someone wants to access and control some particular type of database then individual application packages are also available which makes this Database management tool affordable for everyone. These are the independent applications:
Here we are going to install Navicat for MongoDB to connect and manage databases of MongoDB on Linux system. The below-given steps will be the same to install other DB management tools provided by the same developer.
Go to your Ubuntu system and open command terminal. To quickly access, you can use a shortcut key combination that is CTRL+ALT+T. Or just go to activities panel / Application for Centos or other Linux Distors to search for the Terminal.
By default, if you want to run this GUI database management tool, then every time you have to go to its folder as we did above to run it. However, we can create a Desktop shortcut for it to save time.
You will see a shortcut icon on the Desktop with the name Navicat.desktop or whatever you have given to it. Now, right-click on it and select the option called Allow launching.
Secondly, Go to the Application Tab type Name whatever you want, and then come to the command section. Where click on the Browse button and just like we did for Ubuntu, go to the downloaded Navicat folder and select start_navicat script.
In this way, we can install any Navicat Database management tool on a Linux operating system to manage different database systems graphically. If you have some doubts or questions, please feel free to use the comment section.
SSL is a protocol and each application has its own way of SSL/TLS configuration, normally you should have or generate a private key and use to generate an SSL certificate and combine it with the SSL certificate in the app configuration file.
So you should state which application you use.
I am using them locally. There are like 50 ways I read how to encrypt connection but I am new and I need some guide step by step how to use at least one of those ways. Just need something simple for local use with self-sign certificate.
And because I want to know how to do it Just for fun All of that stuff developed within those containers is useless and complete waste of time and resources, but to know something new it is fun for me.
Docker is build on top of the OS witch mean it has to go trough the OS in order to go out there where encryption usually takes place not inside the container I can see stunnel as a solution but I have to keep learning how to configure it right.
I used my downstream firewall pfsense to install stunnel as a server and ubuntu server where the docker is, as stunnel client and now all I have to do is add configuration to the client and the server to each port I want to encrypt and I will have HTTPS on any docker container I want.
The Stunnel program is designed to work as an SSL encryption wrapper between remote client and local (inetd-startable) or remote server. It can be used to add SSL functionality to commonly used inetd daemons like POP2, POP3, and IMAP servers without...
Now I will try something else because this settings to https are for inbound connection and most of the apps by default use http and they probably send data somewhere not only receive I will try to encrypt the outbound also
so if someone is thirsty to have my precious data it will get gibberish without my decryption key
I think I can encrypt the outbound once on Ubuntu, but this time I will encrypt it second time on my firewall with sets of rules and stunnel
