Padronisame here09:32
stickyboyPadroni: Which TLS cipher suite do you use?09:37
PadroniI don't use TLS 09:37
Padronieverything can be broken09:38
stickyboySo you use plaintext?09:38
Padronimaking encryption a bit of a moot point09:38
Padronidepends on what I need it for09:38
Padroniwhat do you use TLS for?09:38
stickyboyPadroni: I use TLS for HTTPS.09:39
PadroniI stick to SSL for https if need be09:39
stickyboyI'm not debating that "everything can be broken", but it's not a very pragmatic approach.09:39
Padronibut I never do anything that can cause too much damage should SSL fail 09:40
Padronilike transactions and such09:40
stickyboyPadroni: Hmm? SSLv3 is beyond broken...09:40
Padronithat is always done on the vendor's side09:40
Padronii know, stickyboy09:40

Padronithey have scoped me out on linkedin though09:40
Padroniwhich kinda made me nervous09:40
stickyboyOk, I am a big supporter of TLS1.2 with AEAD and forward secrecy.09:41
PadroniI am a big supporter of privacy and the right to anonomity in general09:41
stickyboyMy blogs don't work without HTTPS... https://mjanja.ch/ https://alaninkenya.org/09:41
PadroniI feel the gov have fucked up enough things that they don't need to meddle in my communications09:41
Padronioh snap - pardon my language09:41
stickyboyAll HTTP links are 301 -> with long strict transport headers.09:41

SquirmSymmetria: you still manage that?10:28
Kilosour repos are pointed to him10:28
SquirmI can wait10:29
Symmetriaits fixed10:31
Kilosgo Squirm  10:31
Symmetriasorry we had a minor issue where linux sometimes loses ability to talk to the equilogix units 10:31
Symmetriafor some bizarro reason10:31
Symmetriaand that requires a reboot 10:31
SquirmCool10:46
Padroniand then confirmation: 10:54

mazalBye everyone , God bless12:36
SquirmHas anyone here had many dealings with SIP phones?14:19
ThatGraemeGuyI try to have a little to do with phones as possible14:22
SquirmWe have a small fibre line, dedicated to dealing with our VOIP traffic, from our provider. When this line fails, which is does from time to time, we fail over to our primary fibre connection. This is great. The only real routing our firewall does, is pass all voip traffic over our voip fibre if it's up, and then rules disappear when the voip fibre goes down. This all works well. The problem comes in when our voip fibre comes 14:25
Squirmback online. It seems either the phones/our SIP provider(telviva.com) is holding on to the IP address of our primary fibre. So calls from then on, don't work. The call dials, but no sound comes through the handset. So the packets are essentially going out through voip fibre and in through primary fibre, which makes things break...14:25
magellanicdon't the phones timeout and reconnect to the sip server though?14:28
Squirmmagellanic: no. Maybe because the primary fibre doesn't actually go down14:30
magellanichmm yes14:32
magellanicI guess the firewall should make sure routing goes through the voip-fiber when it's up14:35
SquirmIt does14:35
SquirmIf I traceroute our  sip server, it goes out the correct route14:35
magellanicbut the phones have an established connection going via the other route?14:36
SquirmWell.. I'm not sure what's happening there. I've rebooted phones countless times and they're not establishing a new connection14:37
magellanictcpdump for traffic to the voip server on the primary line14:37

Kilosyou are becoming like rocking horse droppings=very scarce15:59
grembleI've turned into quite the busy person16:03
gremblehaha16:03
Squirmmagellanic: Seems the firewall wasn't changing the ESTABLISHED connections16:04
Squirmfound a way to clear all connections to our SIP Server from our primary fibre16:04
Squirmvoila16:04
magellanicnice16:04
SquirmBut there doesn't seem to be a way on our firewall to automate it16:05
SquirmSo might have ti script something that sits on another server :/16:05
Kiloshi mazal  16:30
mazalNaand oom16:30
magellanicSquirm: it know when the other line comes back up though, you could force all traffic to sip server via that route then16:36
Squirmmagellanic: That's the route in place16:37
SquirmBut it's nor forcing already established connections over that route16:37
magellanicthe rules are just routing rules you have there? that get set/unset when the lines come/go?16:38

mazalOom Kilos , daar is fout met bduk se chat17:40
Kilosai! maak reg vir hom17:40
mazalHy het my vandag gesĂȘ dat hy niks kan sien wat in die channel getik word nie17:40
mazalHy het re-install , en nou wil die chat nie werk nie17:40
Kiloswsatter client17:40
Kilosoh ya die thunderbird ding17:41
mazalYep , en ek kennie daai settings vie chat op tb nie17:41
Kilosse vir hom xchat of hexchat17:41
mazalNee hy soek als in een app17:41
Kilosek gebruik tb nerens17:41
Kiloslol17:41
mazalAg koos vergeet ek alweer ek maggie afr praat nie17:42
Kiloshy kan kyk in /home17:42
Kilosnp17:42
mazalHe installed K , so I recommended konversation17:42
magellanicSquirm: you could use iptables nat stuff or ip rule rules to force it..17:42
mazalBut he doesn't want multiple apps open17:42
Kilosin hom get to see the file .thunderbird17:43
Kilostell him to go to /home and then press alt +. and he will see the hidden files17:43
mazalEverything works , connects and even shows the channel tab red that there is activity , but clicking on the tab does nothing , doesn't actually opens the window to see inside the channel view17:44
mazalI will see when he is back at work if I see the problem in front of me if I can figure out what's wrong17:44
Kilosmaybe something is corrupt in the conf file17:44
Kilosnormally removing the app then deleting that .file and then installing again will sort it17:45
mazalIs difficult to know what's wrong with just a description , need to see it before me17:45
Kilosyip me too17:46
mazalJust thought I should tell you guys why he is in and out without saying anything17:46
Kilostell him he is forgiven hehe17:47
mazalAnd I told him K is nice , so he installed that and now he has problems :P17:47
Kilosmurphy17:47
mazalyeah17:48
Kilosyou can try using thunderbird irc chat by you and then looking at what must be in that .file17:49
magespawnmazal i think there are chat clients that you can use in firefox rather than thunderbird18:11
magespawnbrb just rebooting18:12
Kilosohi superfly  18:14
inetprogood evening18:19
Kiloshi inetpro  18:19
magespawngood evening inetpro18:20
inetpromazal: if you are on KDE then please try Konversation as a client for IRC18:21
Kiloshaha its bduk and he like everything in one app18:21
inetproIRC via thunderbird doesn't come close to Konversation18:21
Kilosi know that18:22
inetproKilos: is mazal using Konversation yet?18:22
mazalinetpro: Is not me , is bduk18:22
Kilosmost likely18:22
inetpromazal: are you?18:22
mazalI'm on konversation18:22
Kiloshee hee18:22
inetprocool, then please show him18:22
mazalWhich I recommended to him18:23
mazalBut he wants everything in 1 app18:23
inetpronothing beats seeing it in action18:23
inetprothunderbird is a mail client, that is where it's strenghts lie18:23
mazalI don't know why he wants it that way , but that's how he wants it and used it for long time18:24
mazalI agree with you inetpro18:24
mazalI'll try and convince him :)18:24
* inetpro tried IRC on thunderbird18:24
magespawnirssi for the win18:24
inetpromeh!18:25
Kiloshe is most likely like me and needs to learn to use many workspaces18:25
mazalKilos: I think it's more a matter of unity's multiple app windows that's a shlep18:25
Kilosunity?18:25
mazalI think that annoyed him18:25
inetproyou really don't have to use multiple workspaces18:26
mazalYeah we were mos for long time on unity18:26
Kilosoh ya 18:26
inetprojust use ALT+Tab to switch between apps18:26
Kilosinetpro  i love my 10 workspaces18:26
mazalI think that's where the thing started with him of not wanting many apps open18:26
mazalI know he had issues getting apps to the top and things like that18:27
mazalI must just show him that with K there isn't that nonsense18:27
mazalAnd switching is a breeze18:28
Kiloskde rocks18:28
mazalYeah I'm very happy since I switched.18:29
* inetpro keeps things very basic18:29
inetprothree to four apps on a single desktop at any one time and no fancy desktop effects at all18:29
mazalinetpro: Yeah me too , disabled desktop effects and have 3 apps on desktop 1 and only 1 app on desktop 218:29
mazalI'm kinda old school that way , don't like many bells & wistles18:30
inetprobells and whistles is a massive waste of resources18:31
magespawnyup agree with that one18:31
mazalThat's why today's cars breaks so easy and cost so much to repair lol18:32
Kiloslol18:32
magespawni am learning to do almost all my work through the command line when possible18:33
* mazal be hungry18:34
* mazal go search for snacks18:35
