andrewlsdMorning magellanic MaNI Mzolisto Squirm smile07:49
andrewlsdHi Sxuza, I don't think I've seen you here before (I'm often not here)07:50
paddatrapperMorning chesedo, andrewlsd07:52
chesedohi nsnzero andrewlsd08:10
andrewlsdMaaz tell Sxuza hope to see you here soon08:18
* andrewlsd looks across at ZaTech slack via IRC bridge08:18
andrewlsdTime to migrate my little VPs to ubuntu 16.04.  Later version of Quassel-core resolves the funny Slack-IRC issue that makes my nic display (to me) as "Welcome". Minor irritation. Still shows correctly for other users.08:23
andrewlsd`canonical-livepatch status`08:24
andrewlsd`fully-patched: true`08:24
andrewlsdWoot08:24
magellanichi andrewlsd 09:26
andrewlsdo/ magellanic :-)09:27
chesedoinetpro or superfly it seems that Maaz has left us...09:27
andrewlsdhmm. that explains some things. 09:28
chesedoandrewlsd: like no response to your "tell Sxuza..."?09:37
andrewlsdYip09:41
magellanicwhy 16.04, due to lts? I just saw this, which was a bit depressing, but from it, the protections were effective from 16.10 onward. https://fosdem.org/2017/schedule/event/linux_desktop_versus_windows10/attachments/slides/1730/export/events/attachments/linux_desktop_versus_windows10/slides/1730/fosdem_linux_desktop_security.pdf09:45
magellanicbut then here I am using mint based of 14.04 :p09:47
magespawngood day all10:33
chesedomagellanic: that is quite interesting... i see that it is future dated, so might hear a lot about it in the next few days...10:33
chesedohi magespawn10:33
magellanicfuture dated?10:36
andrewlsdmagellanic yeah, upgrade from 14.04 to 16.04 (I only run servers on LTS). Happy to run other containers inside. but host will be LTS.10:38
andrewlsd(until it isn't  :-P  )10:38
magellaniccool, yep servers should just be lts, desktop is a different story10:40
andrewlsdmagellanic: will be interesting if snaps become a real thing. in which case I can then run LTS desktop, with the latest X/Y/Z snap10:45
andrewlsdI'm a bit OS-re-install fatigued at the moment.10:45
andrewlsdtheblazehen (who isn't here right now) is already on 17.04 afaik10:45
* andrewlsd goes to look for theblazehen10:45
chesedomagellanic: here -> https://hboeck.de ... the date for the article is the 18th...10:47
jerithey everybody!10:48
nsnzerohi andrewlsd chesedo jerit 10:48
andrewlsd\o/ jerit woot10:48
nsnzerostill struggling with my port forwarding drama ...10:49
magellanicandrewlsd: yeah, re-install and reconfigure/setup etc is a pain10:49
magellanicchesedo: ah, it must be him repeating the talk then, it was given at fosdem early Feb10:49
andrewlsd`snap` does make it nice and easy to cleanly remove stuff.10:49
theblazehenHi10:50
jeritlol andrewlsd hi10:50
nsnzerohii theblazehen 10:50
jerityou seem fairly excited that I'm here though I can't imagine why :P10:50
* andrewlsd is also excited to see theblazehen10:51
theblazehenheh10:51
theblazehenBroke my quassel core10:51
* andrewlsd thinks that is like "broke my ulna in 2 places"10:51
theblazehenTried live migration, failed, tried normal move, some btrfs error. Normally when it fails it leaves the container on the source host10:51
theblazehenthis time it copied to the new host, /me though it was still at source host, so I did a lxc delete -f quasselcore on new host, turns out that it was copied to new host and deleted from old... Was gonna move it to a docker container anyway10:52
theblazehenAnnoyed that I lost the db though10:52
* andrewlsd likes "hide chat" in quassel.10:54
andrewlsd^ using it in ZAtech_slack IRC to "mute" channels.10:54
nsnzeroas soon as i opened port 22 on my router i started getting login failure messages for root in the auth.log10:57
theblazehennsnzero: Now point it to a honeypot10:57
andrewlsdtheblazehen: smuxi.im looks nice.  I like "multi-user" of Quassel. although, I suppose you could just run multiple smuxi backends in containers.10:59
andrewlsdstill nice to have a single IP/host to which several different folk can connect to their own IRC identities&networks11:00
andrewlsdnsnzero: if you make the password something simple, and start allowing password-based logins, those failure messages will go away :-P11:00
* andrewlsd ducks11:08
nsnzeroi am still learning networking - have basic knowledge that comes from watching mr robot 11:08
nsnzeroi will have to find a good book on this subject 11:11
nsnzeroandrewlsd: i need to find out about using pass-keys and certificates 11:27
* nsnzero reads linux network administrators guide11:53
magespawnnsnzero: those failed logins are for people trying to login into your router12:06
nsnzerohi magespawn 12:09
nsnzeroyip these netgear routers have a serious security bug - they can be taking over by bots12:10

magespawnbrb14:29
jeritany of you guys know a lawyer in pta/cullinan area who will subpoena a guy for me and take payment only after the case is concluded?14:56
jeritmy lawyer says there's virtually no chance I'll lose my case in court but wants 3k to subpoena the defendant and he won't represent me in court because its so far from his offices14:57
nsnzero~]7415:30
jeritdid anyone address my queries about a lawyer? I didn't see before I got disconnected :(15:51
thatgraemeguynobody did15:57
thatgraemeguythere's a group on facebook called "Legal Talk SA", ask them15:57
thatgraemeguyor "Legal Talk South Africa" perhaps, I never remember which15:58
chesedonsnzero: for my studies I am going through the book "Network+: Guide to Networks" which you might find interesting...16:21
nsnzerohi chesedo - is it a free resource ?16:22
chesedoelse, i think, that the understanding of the 7 ISO layers is a great starting point16:22
chesedonsnzero: np, university work so hell expensive :P16:23
chesedoaround R600-R700 iirc16:23
chesedos/np/nope/16:23
nsnzeroouch - that is a ssd or a new router 16:24
nsnzerothis free 1 is got earlier seems very comprehensive and is specific to linux/unix 16:25
chesedonsnzero: which one is that16:26
nsnzerolinux network administrators guide 16:26
nsnzerotldp.org/LDP/nag2/index.html16:30
chesedonsnzero: also consider that some protocols have become obsolete, so reading something oldish might require double learning16:33
jeritchesedo: what about this? https://www.cybrary.it/course/comptia-network-plus/16:36
jeritthat's free16:36
nsnzerothanks chesedo 16:37

superflyUSB modeswitch? 16:39
