It was something to do with report processing. That's all I know. :smile: As for shell scripting, shells don't handle complex data structures well (it's clunky), and life gets easier by moving to a full programming language. Shell is fine for automating a series of commands which don't need to share data. Perl is fairly…

SELinux would help in this scenario. The webserver wouldn't have access to the NS files.

A Kafka inspired hard sci-fi. 2001: A Space Odyssy mixed with The Lobster and the real life of DC techs. Maybe some Terry Gillam Brazil flourishes. :smile: That might be too bleak though. This is pic is awesome. Very kubrick-esque. =) That could totally happen. Two DC techs stuck on a outage call because "they might be…

Twilio is the one thing that comes to mind. Are there others?

This works with Thunderbird too.

Android only though. :disappointed: All of your eggs in one basket. Password manager gets hacked, and everything is there. Versus having to break into two systems, a password manager and a 2FA device. Bitwarden, 1password, LastPass, etc. are SaaS systems which are always on and available. Attackers have a open window to…
-
Yep, Authy. Holding passwords in Bitwarden and using it for 2FA isn't as secure as it sounds.

Yes, if the host has a BMC chip which is plugged into the network, it's a candidate for this kind of attack. Unknown persons having complete access to the hardware before you is the problem. It's like taking a turn with the town bike. It's more about trusting the provider has better security and hygiene. A reputation for…

No joke. It's tasty.

ssh-agent and a .ssh/config file.

Maybe. At last year's BSides there was a talk about backdooring BMC chips, like iDRAC, iLOM, and so on. The premise was renting dedis and buying used servers is dangerous because BMCs can be compromised giving attackers a persistent way into the server, and people are better off with a VPS or cloud VM. It's plausible. Yes.…

Dokuwiki is the go to for wikis. It's simple, has lots of plugins, and I like the wiki syntax. For documentation... MkDocs is a nice turnkey solution. Hugo is a static site generator which could be used to create docs from markdown with the correct template. Typemill looks interesting. Thanks for posting! Grav is really…

Indeed. SEI CERT C Coding Standard As others will point out, memory safety is great for stuff running in userspace, and it's mostly about programmer productivity. When memory safety is turned off, for the kind of things that happen in kernel space for instance, the memory safe language is just as error prone as C. I want…

Yes, Firefox Sync. It works well. Ugh, ZDnet, and engilsh majors writing about technology. :# I'm a Firefox user, so it really is the content of the article and not some Google fetish or large corp bootlicking. Right. :lol: "Going forward, Google says it plans to look into developing custom C++ libraries to use with…

Desktop as a Service might be of interest to you. https://www.techrepublic.com/article/top-desktop-as-a-service-daas-providers-amazon-citrix-microsoft-vmware-and-more/

I don't know. I login via ssh, attach to a tmux session, and start working. From experience, this works great with reliable Internet, like an office or home, but it breaks down when the wifi is craptacular, like in airports or coffee shops. The dream of being untethered from places or computers is still a ways off. There…

Plex, Emby, or Jellyfin maybe? https://alternativeto.net/software/plex/ Get video, convert video, throw it to wasabi can be done via ffmpeg and rclone with some scripting. Provide a video player could be done with videojs and some web dev. Aside from that, nothing rings a bell.

It's still more reasonable than some job postings. It's also tight, focused, upfront, and readable which is nice. The job would be a good hustle for someone who doesn't have to work, like a house husband or house wife, or a good side hustle for people with lots of time off, like firefighters.

Are we talking about packaging BoringTun for the RH ecosystem? There's a Copr repo for CentOS 7, 8 and Fedora 30, 31, 32 here -> https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/atim/boringtun/ Alternately, there is Open Build Service (OBS) which will build repos for lots of things. https://openbuildservice.org/…

Mostly running up my electricity bill and experimenting with IPAMs. I could also use one at work, and it would help to keep track of the various networks behind VPNs I have to deal with. I do something similar with just a /24 for my home network, except I couldn't remember if I had assigned .50 to one of the 10 other…
-
That's good to know. That could be interesting. There are multiple parts? Some which can use Auth token and other which only accept Basic Auth? :+1:
-
I need the brain space. This is my home network. Hetrix doesn't need access to my house. :smile: Mostly, I want to remember what networks I've assigned to things like subnetworks and/or routed KVM networks. Both of which may or may not be active at any given time. Also, IP planning, so I know where the breaks in subnets…

How do you/they like it?
-
I don't have children, so not a problem I have. :lol: If I did though... Either free range or some sort of asset tag with an LTE modem and Google Maps integration. That's easy enough to script or write a small program for. :smile: I would probably switch to YAML though. ipam.yamlnetworks: - home - home-exphome: - space:…

I personally prefer firewalld over iptables. It's much easier to deal with, for the most part. I've been getting some weird CPU consumption issues with sshguard and firewalld on CentOS 8. 41% CPU usage of firewalld on a single core, 1GB VPS until I turn off sshguard. FreeBSD and IPFW seem to be fine, which is the extent of…

That's me speculating wildly. :lol: Their plan is probably much more pedestrian. :smile:

Are they going to converting freezers to racks? Is that the idea? Adding small DCs to big box supermarkets isn't a bad idea for things that can be distributed. Netflix would probably like that.
