(Quote) No. (Quote) ACPI is sufficient for that, and clicking the "Stop" button on the panel does actually do a clean shutdown.
-
(Quote) The average customer won't know what your agreement with PayPal (or any payment processor says), so it will be a surprise to them. The other thing to keep in mind is that these refunds could also be covered by distance selling regulati…

(Quote) Is that like a hosting plan, except that it is hosed?
-
(Quote) I don't think "simply won the chess game" is entirely accurate
-
(Quote) NetBSD's gcc should actually be able to compile the Linux kernel itself, but the build scripts will probably expect a GNU userland instead of the NetBSD tools. Compiling a kernel doesn't need that much disk space or RAM (I am comp…
-
(Quote) If you are only debugging NDP, wouldn't tcpdump be entirely adequate for that? If you have to transfer files between machines you'll likely get confused as you don't see what's happening in real time.

And on NetBSD the command to add that out-of-subnet host route would be: route add -inet6 -net 2607:5300:1234:12ff:ff:ff:ff:ff/128 -connected -link -iface vioif0 EDIT: also need -connected
-
(Quote) I think Linux only gets around this by letting you add a "random" host route on the network interface that you can then use for your default gateway. On thing you could do on the BSDs is to use the link-local address of the gatewa…
-
(Quote) Are you assigned both 1234::1 and 12ff::1? If not, what happens if other VMs on that node use the same 12ff::1? Shouldn't that be at least an address that is guaranteed to be unique?
-
(Quote) How about getting a provider tag first, before posting offers here?
-
(Quote) Yes... but first you need to get root access to the host machine. And to do that you need to use the IPMI vulnerability, but the host also needs to have a completely insecure boot manager that lets you boot into something like init=/bin/bash…
-
Could someone explain the attack vector here. As far as I understand, they got access to IPMI. Is that essentially allowing access to the console? So they would then reboot the server and then boot into something like init=/bin/bash to get root acce…
-
(Quote) That's not very low-end as the maximum allowed here is $7 per month. How come others can offer so much cheaper packages?
-
(Quote) Not much really, just noticed a small glitch in the network setup in my NetBSD 10 image. But it's probably really just cosmetic - it adds "alias" flags to the addresses when it shouldn't. Just something to keep in mind fo…
-
(Quote) Will they even have a provider tag by Black Friday? And to continue the list: Do you allow setting RDNS records for both IPv4 and IPv6? Do you block any ports (25)? Do you have clean IP space? Do you allow sending spam? Do you allow port s…
-
Also got it now. I think this is important: (Quote) Thanks for that!
-
(Quote) But what's the conclusion here? Has anything been done to avoid a repeat of this situation? Will @crunchbits act on such a report in the future again? Has the reporter been warned not to blindly send abuse reports where the source IP ad…

Discourse seems to be quite popular with technical forums. But I really prefer good old NNTP where you can have everything you care about in one place (btw, Gmane is really great to follow mailing lists).
-
BTW, has anyone had any more success with using a NetBSD KASLR kernel? Using the instructions from https://wiki.netbsd.org/security/kaslr/ only results in a page fault: (Image)
-
BTW, a few weeks ago I mentioned the cpuid tool - as of cpuid 20241023 my changes for NetBSD have been integrated, so it now also works on NetBSD.
-
Could someone post an update how this was resolved/handled?
-
(Quote) https://btxx.org/posts/openbsd-linveo/ actually seems to use the amd64 image.
-
(Quote) You mean the tunefs -m? That won't do anything to fix the inodes issue - it only allows non-root users to use a bit more of the filesystem space.
-
(Quote) Interesting, I only ever get as far as this with OpenBSD: (Image) Not that I really want to use OpenBSD, was just curious...
-
(Quote) You can always limit the build job to a single core and/or periodically send it SIGSTOP/SIGCONT signals to pause it for a bit.
-
(Quote) So it would have worked with the new filesystem settings with the original disk space allocation. (Quote) Well... there is a 512 MB swap partition you could use as a temporary alternative root filesystem.
-
(Quote) Yes, that's the inodes/filesystem overhead (and there is a 512 MB swap partition). BTW, you can also look at the partitions with gpt show ld0 and dkctl ld0 listwedges
-
(Quote) BTW, I actually tried booting into the OpenBSD 7.6 installer (via netboot.xyz) when it was released, but it did hang just before getting to user space.
-
(Quote) I believe your version of the image might actually just resize the partition and file system on the next reboot (that's because in the first version I didn't mount the filesystem with the "log" option). Later versions no…
-
BTW, the actual maximum number of inodes is 3117310 (3100457 was the number of available inodes on my system), but I think df only shows that number when using df -G / (and the values are currently swapped around on 10.0).
