2.5 Admins 196: Won’tel

Microsoft’s new Copilot+ feature will record everything you are doing on your computer for some reason, but it will only work on new Arm hardware for now. Plus Apple’s weird iOS bug that restored deleted files and photos, and sharing files over the Internet from a NAS on your LAN.

Just encountered the standard while in touch with our logistics firm. Why the hell is this nothing readable and yet another useless standard that could've been implemented in or something modern....

And the best part is everyone uses a subset or has some customizarions which forces us to implement it again and again

Un type se connecte en IMAP sur TLS au serveur, depuis une machine en Chine, et se déconnecte avec l'alerte TLS "bad certificate".
C'est un certificat CAcert. S'il ne te plait pas, tu dégages !

Un démon plantait à peu près tous les jours. Je mets en place un script qui teste s'il est toujours là et le démarre sinon, et, depuis, le démon ne plante plus (là, trois jours d'uptime).

"Run Your Own Mail Server" has blown through the initial stretch goals.

At $10k, all backers receive an ebook of "Ed Mastery." I'm told it teaches experienced sysadmins things about Unix they never imagined.

Clear-eyed explanation of disastrous fragility in current technical systems, yet it’s also very funny. Plus discussion. Well worth your time, and good inspiration for systems builders/sysadmins.

Je viens de brancher un écran sur le serveur de saty.re qui avait planté, et… heu… il a un problème je crois 😅

Bon, la partition / monte pas, la partition /home apparaît comme inconnue et il y a des erreurs de secteur.
3 ans d’activité, le disque n’a été utilisé que pour le serveur je crois, et sa capacité était largement sous-exploitée (1To)

2.5 Admins 195: Execute Option 121

Why Windows 10 might be gaining users at Windows 11’s expense, an old DHCP option is a potential risk for VPN users, we should probably say “renting” rather than “buying”domains, and avoiding tracking when using IPv6.

DNS gurus, am I correct in believing that PTR records are primarily used for mail sending servers and servers that never send mail do not need one?

Putting today's events on the scale, it seems balanced:

Client 1: "The setup you provided on FreeBSD and dedicated hosting outperforms an expensive public Cloud. I'm very satisfied!"

Client 2: "To simplify DevOps, I want to use low-cost, low-quality external service and decommission our servers. Infrastructure costs are too high." (Four physical servers on a low-cost provider with consultancy for management).

And it's only Monday.

Coworker wrote a very useful in-house utility that they named "ATH." I of course made a joke about the next version needing to be called "ATDT." Half the team didn't get it. We work in telecom. I feel old.

Hm, so because I am so eager to understand things I know have the task to explain of tomorrow.

From what I understand, I can think of multicast of like topics in MQTT:
One sender and whoever is interested can read from it. New hosts are subscribed to it when they go online.

By setting certain flags in their are messages for routers and neighbors. One for request and a matching respond (called solicitation and advertisement).

Now I would love to have a confirm my understanding.

Because the teacher's explanation: 🤷

I'm trying to wrap my head around security aspects of IPv6 protocol.

From what I've learned that now my networking devices have a public IP address (unlike with IPv4 which would have to be port translated at the router).

In order to talk to a service I still will need a port next to the IP address.

Does that mean that every device in the network should have a firewall? Or can I still have one at the router level handle everything?

My fear is that a router could be easily bypassed.
