Re:How much EU is in DNS4EU? on Thursday June 12, 2025 @06:43AM (#44256071)
It's simple to setup a resolver, really. Basically just "apt install unbound" and you have a resolver ready.

the only thing you might have to adjust is the access control

https://www.linuxbabe.com/ubuntu/set-up-unbound-dns-resolver...

      access-control: 10.0.0.0/8 allow
      access-control: 127.0.0.1/24 allow
      access-control: 2001:DB8::/64 allow

That'd be a really good idea

To be honest, setting up a DNS4EU replica would just be a simple unbound

If denmark was to successfully adopt libreoffice they would probably invest in its upkeep aswell

Preventing another migration is a cost reduction in itself

With DBeaver I was able to use tnsnames.ora to use a few tricks to connect to an oracle db

It required certain host/user/cid combination to pass the whitelist.

The minecraft demo is quite impressive

I'm not the type to write a blog. I just don't want to invest that much.

What I do though is documenting for myself, everything.

It has helped me greatly in the last few years

I was asking myself the same question, looking for something noteworthy.

No there's nothing here to find. The way to go is in the linked discourse, god it's ugly, use iperf.

Re:Running Systemd-Nspawn Containers on Friday February 21, 2025 @04:14AM (#43125596)
I used nspawn to get a system running in the most ridiculous way.

A debian aarch64 vm on kvm starting a systemd-nspawn for an unpacked raspberry pi 3 iso.

It works way too well judging by how ridiculous it was.

Still saved me a few days instead of setting things up myself.

Might as well require you to pay 1000$ up front to use.

If you wanted to view this from a darker side it could also be titled:

How to generate a hit list to hurt a global economy

it's nothing new for cars to be susceptible to replay attacks, yet it's always a proof of incapacity of the involved developers.

to even implement such a design is audacious

or just a portable mingw coming with an openssh and a dynamic proxy

there you go with an easy socks5 proxy.

So much work just because someone is using advertised dns from pppoe
I don't really see where you are getting that

I didn't consider embedded, probably the biggest target for this.
> In our experiments, it takes ~10,000 tries on average to win this race condition, so ~3-4 hours with 100 connections (MaxStartups) accepted per 120 seconds (LoginGraceTime). Ultimately, it takes ~6-8 hours on average to obtain a remote root shell, because we can only guess the glibc's address correctly half of the time (because of ASLR).

Re:V Programming Language released on Thursday June 20, 2019 @01:37AM (#20230200)
I'm curious but too lazy to look it up myself. SO I'll just ask.

How far does the 'linux' specification go. Say I want to run a V program on AIX what kind of libraries will I need?

What about the 'windows' specification. Do the redistributables support windows 2000/7/Vista/8/8.1/10

We have a lot of different systems on our clients, mac as well. It would be nice to read concrete requirements for running to really see how much effort rolling out a V application would be.

You could pay 5$ for this service. Or you could pay 5$ for a virtual server that can be secured off by yourself and still use reverse proxies on ssh to access any machine...

Since a lot of people here have a technical background the most popular choice should be apparent.

you are referring to pdf viewer exploits, you can circumvent most of them by either using linux or utilizing less targeted pdf viewer software like sumatra.
Beside how great of an effort this is, the main recipients seem to come from the US. Is the US really that poor of a country to need donations for basic school supplies?
