I nominate: * @Not_Oles * @vyas * @Neoon You want to do push-ups for CAPTCHA instead of clicking on boats and bicycles? Rumor says @FAT32 is a super intelligent bot that does not need any sleep. They can make accurate decisions without bias that exists in humans. There have been numerous attempts to bribe them with…

IPv6 is not mentioned in the offer. Looking glass has no AAAA record and ping6 functionality.
-
No IPv6 hall of shame * GitHub * Google Cloud * Oracle Cloud * ColonCrossing - VirMach, RackNerd * XetHost * SoftShellWeb (San Jose only) * NexusBytes (Germany only) * HostSolutions * IOFlood * KhanWebHost Include IPv6, by default, to get delisted.

Wrong answer. Should be /69. Put in a typical offer form: * 1 dedicated CPU * 4GB RAM * 100GB NVMe * unlimited transfer at 1Gbps (fair share) * 1x IPv4 * /69 IPv6 * Price: $11.02/month Compare to similar 4GB plans from other providers: * Virmach (regular non-promo line): $25, 2 dedicated CPU, no IPv6 * NexusBytes (premium…

I don't have password on SSH private key. I'm not concerned about data breach because I don't handle PII on the server, and the website itself is open source. I have a laptop and a phone linked to Dropbox, and they both already have the SSH private key.
-
My SSH private key is stored on all my computers and phones so they backup each other. There's also a copy in Dropbox. Not encrypted, because I trust Dropbox. I've been using the same RSA private key since 2011. I am thinking about regenerating a new key in ECDSA, but haven't got to it.

I have SAMBA 3.6 on my home router. The config smb.conf is as follows and it is compatible with Windows 10. [global] netbios name = OpenWrt display charset = UTF-8 interfaces = lo br-lan server string = OpenWrt unix charset = UTF-8 workgroup = WORKGROUP bind interfaces only = yes deadtime = 30 enable core files = no…

I don't see any misunderstanding here, and I do not interpret sarcasm. Thus, what you might fear has not happened. It's possible to design an API that supports multiple currencies, but that would not be minimal. In SolusIO, the native price unit is token, and the provider can set the exchange rate between token and dollars…

Now it starts to make sense. 66% more costs, 100% more resources. In 2019, after spending two days installing 5 new servers, I powered off 3 and kept 2 online. A week later, one server had an NVMe failure. The NVMe device just disappeared from the system, invisible from BIOS or Live CD. I guess there's electric fault. We…

This is IP change done right. Having a bit of overlapping time when both old and new IPs are attached would minimize downtime for a website published from a migrated server. Even a 2-hour overlapping time would be beneficial, if the user shortens DNS TTL prior to migration window. Checklist for users: * Backup, because…

If you forget _netdev in mount options, systemd would attempt to mount the drive before networking is ready. This would fail and the system cannot finish booting.

RBL servers are expected to return a response in 127.0.0.0/8 range for a positive response. If the domain is resolving to parking page, the response is not in 127.0.0.0/8. Why don't the RBL querier reject such invalid responses? Sloppy design, sloppy code…

The remaining one order is a mistake too, consider that half of your last server is still idling. Hardware has to be 80% utilized before ordering more.

My average upload speed was 800 KB/s from Verizon FiOS in Washington DC region. I'm using rclone sync command on a GL-AR750 that has MIPS processor and 128MB RAM. After several round of trial and error, I found the best command line to be: nice /mnt/N/rclone --ca-cert /mnt/N/globalsign.pem --buffer-size 1M --max-backlog 64…

That's a nice price if user needs a lot of NVMe. Fixed that for you: Grumpy, ignorant, clueless Greedy administrator wants profit. ? Greedy Hetzner € 99 once off setup fee; clueless Hetzner IPv6 once off fee. RAID is for weaklings. If the disk fails, just do 1 push-up for every GB lost to ask for forgiveness, and then move…

It took me two days to upload all the photos (about 120GB) via davfs2+rsync. * davfs2 isn't working on my home router (GL-AR750) so I have to run it on a BeagleBone Black, then rsync from SAMBA mount to WebDAV mount. * rsync would only transfer 1 file at a time. * All the modify dates are messed up because WebDAV protocol…
-
I set a system-wide mount for WebDAV. All files would show up as owned by the ubuntu user that I use to login to the desktop. sudo apt install davfs2sudo mkdir -p /mnt/BRICKsudoedit /etc/davfs2/secrets /mnt/BRICK [email protected] 8e0e052e-7beb-4e35-bf8d-45e9d69aceafsudoedit /etc/fstab…

Isn't the backup storage supposed to be idle? As long as the primary doesn't break, you won't need the backup. I have 120GB of photos, since our first digital camera in 2002. All photos are in a 2TB USB HDD attached to the home router. Before that, I took 20 digital photos from 1998 at a computer summer camp, but the…

You don't need an app for messaging. Instead: * Write me a letter. * Send me an email. * Transmit a UDP datagram with nc(1) command. * Save your message in a floppy drive, seal it in a bottle, and throw it into the Pacific. Label the bottle with "yoursunny.com" for identification. I go to Santa Monica beach every few years…

Yes I'm using WebDAV. I do not want to synchronize the whole folder to the laptop, so I want to use the WebDAV mount on a BeagleBone Black. The Nextcloud app is also using WebDAV internally, but it probably has some optimization. I tried another folder and the speeds are more reasonable. I don't know what happened to the…

Ordered. Unbelievable price. I hope this lasts for more than 1 year. Even Romania sisters would charge $25/year for 200GB. ping latency from my location (Verizon FiOS, Washington DC region) is 86ms. As a comparison, my personal Nextcloud (Seattle) has a ping latency of 94ms. It's faster to go across Atlantic than across…

You can learn from @Not_Oles , use LXC, and start MetalStorage.com.

Raspberry Pi 400 is classified as a keyboard, of course. If you mod it and add a floppy drive, it could count as a desktop. I send packets with telnet and read the response in tcpdump. ? As long as it's not encrypted, that is.
-
Use a text-mode browser on the VPS, of course! It can do server-side rendering too!

coloncrossing.com is still available.

Let me guess: Barcelona, Spain. Launch date: 12-02-2021 (it's a palindrome in DD-MM-YYYY format, and also my birthday ? ). Discount: 2.1% off for 20 months, limit to 34 uses (+34 is the telephone number for Spain).

None of the typos I pointed out last time has been fixed. https://talk.lowendspirit.com/discussion/comment/50710#Comment_50710 This is not "innocent typo", but ignorance.

Travis free plan turns out to be 10000 credits one time. When you run out, it'll never be replenished. As for OOS credits, you'll have to haggle with support every time you need more credits. It's not recurring. What if my group name happen to contain a quotation sign? "idle" servers isn't too crazy, where "idle" needs…

Great. DYK Travis CI is no longer free? If you aren't paying $69/month, you'd better move to GitHub Actions or CircleCI. SQL injection everywhere! You need Parameterized Statements (since rqlite v5.5.0). And no, having a regex is insufficient.…

User management would be overkill and any homemade user management is subject to attacks. For starters, it's very easy to make mistakes in how to store passwords. An easier and more secure way is to deploy two separate webapps: * An admin site that allows editing. * An external site for showcasing, with no editing…

I have a (mostly) idle MXroute. Where do I put that?

0916-d775-1952-03d2 I signed up to see what LXC is all about, and plan to deploy a replica of pushups statibus. I decided to start a new series of hostnames box0-box9, in addition to the existing series vps0-vps9, to alleviate my "running out of hostnames" issue. From now on, any free or NAT server will be called boxN,…
