woot! CVE-2015-0235 http://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2015/01/27/9 oh that' snot something that brycebot works with, gethostbyname vulnerability in linux hi bryce hey mercutio I'm happy to say there are exactly 0 calls to gethostbyname in BryceBot PHP on the other hand probably has a few, but I made it a policy to never open random/arbitrary URLs in BryceBot. Plus IRC line lengths limit what you can do i meant something that brycebot would parse the header of, and explain what it is :) but it's good to see you're not looking up random names too. a lot of software does though. https://gist.github.com/anonymous/47b95648f1f419919ee5 Gist: "https://gist.github.com/47b95648f1f419919ee5" traceroute to ARP using my new Fibe / VDSL connection is it me or is there just a lot of RFC1918 going on there Not especially a lot, no. first hop is my Mikrotik Router At least not in my experience with ISPs (as a customer) rest is the ISP Where "rest" is just 3 more rfc1918 hops And then you reach Bell's core network mnathani: Does your Mikrotik have a public IP on its external interface, or are you on a hellish CGNAT service? public ip on pppoe interface, yes and they dont limit the number of pppoe sessions I know I am using 2 public Ips right now - one for their modem / access point, another on the Mikrotik mnathani: what was your old route like? i hate it when i see even one rfc1918 hop on an isp but it isn't really an issue normally ^ mnathani: they may complain if you use 100 :) mnathani: and how can it be a fibre / vdsl connection. is it ftth or fttb? or fttb god fttx :) fttb didn't even meant what i thought it did. i meant fibre to the block fttn is what i was thinknig of it seems. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fiber_to_the_x Fiber to the x :: Fiber to the x (FTTX) is a generic term for any broadband network architecture using optical fiber to provide all or part of the local loop used for last mile telecommunications. The term is a generalization for several configurations of fiber deployment, ranging from FTTN (fiber to the neighborhood) to FTTD (fiber to the desktop). Definitions The telecommunications industry differentiates between several distinct... and now it seems it's probably fttc but shifting to fttn/fttp actually with that huge ping it probably is vdsl. old route was hurricane electric less hops less latency well it looks like hop 2 is really high latency. unless it's far away. I am guessing its the DSLAM suggesting vdsl interleaving. yeah it's probably 8 msec upstream 8 msec downstream at a guess. they had to bond 2 lines though but it may be a combination.. it maybe 8/1 then what speed are you at? advertised: 25/10 actual : 26/1.5 yeah you should be able to get that with a single line normally :) ouch on the upstream so you're probably far away. is it noisy or something? that's adsl speeds. the guy says its upto 10 not 10 guaranteed yeah, sounds like it's stepping down the upstream oh and tv is on the same network vdsl hardly ever steps down downstream even at 13 megabit sync you should get more than 800kbit up which is why i thought adsl. so if you record multiple channels simultaneously, it will slow down the internet i wonder if the bonding is screwed. maybe it doesn't bond upstream properly? have you tried iperf in udp mode? or with parallel connections I think I am 1.4 km away from the DSLAM haven't tried the iperf yet tehy really just need a closer dslam. vdsl is so much less intrusive than fibre. pfft the only thing /they/ need is more money. what /mnathani/ needs on the other hand... meaning higher uptake, quicker installs. i mean i'd love 100 megabit upload but it seems general aims are more ilke 100 megabit down 20 up now? docsis and vdsl are kind of pushing speeds up surprisingly on terrible lines. and i don't think vdsl has had a bump recently, so it's likely to jump upa gain oh are you geting terrible weather mnathani ? @weathe yyz @weather yyz Toronto-Pearson International, Ontario: Mostly Cloudy ☁ 19°F (-7°C), Humidity: 42%, Wind: From the NNW at 16 MPH -- For more details including the forecast and almanac, see http://www.wunderground.com/cgi-bin/findweather/getForecast?query=43.67722321,-79.63055420 or re-request this with: @weather -v yyz eek kinda cold do you have to go out in weather like that? breezy and cold we do have to go out that is the magic of internet it's so weird how people can have such different weather it looks kind of warm on that web site, until i realise it's farenheit not celsius @weather -v yyz Toronto-Pearson International, Ontario: Mostly Cloudy ☁ 19°F (-7°C), Humidity: 42%, Wind: From the NNW at 16 MPH, Pressure: 30.15inHg (1021mb) and rising, Dewpoint: 0°F (-18°C), Feels like 5°F (-15°C), Visibility: 15Mi (24km), UV index: 0, Sunrise 07:40, Sunset: 17:22, Lunar phase: First quarter Tuesday: Clear 19°F/7°F (-7°C/-14°C) | Wednesday: Clear 30°F/17°F (-1°C/-8°C) | Thursday: Snow 31°F/9°F (-1°C/-13°C) | Friday: Partly Cloudy 9°F/-1°F (-13°C/-18°C) The average high for this date is 27°F (-2°C), and the record of 51°F (10°C) was set in 2002.

I moved here, in part, for the snow. It has snowed maybe 4 or 5 times this whole winter :( 4 or 5 times sounds ok? winter isn't over yet? Last year it was snowing at least once a week. brycec: where are you again? Canadian border oh, WA, right?

Bring back my sub-0 temperatures. gives a nice excuse to light a fire? I just like when it's cold i used to too whats the best dynamic dns service out there these days? Previously I have used no-ip now that my IP is no longer sticky That's what she said!! BryceBot: no, thats what I said I just hang off my own domain, either self-hosted DNS, or dns.he.net what mechanisim do you use to update the dns automatically? periodic curl (which is what most ddns programs use anyways) Also some routers can do it automatically (since they're the only device that can detect an IP change without making an external request, generally speaking - and if the app is making an external request, it might as well be the same request as to update the ip) not sure if my Mikrotik can do it mnathani: you could do a lt2p/ipsec tunnel over it and log when it connects from a new ip that way you've also got a nice tunnel you can use if you want as well actually i wonder if it automatically createws a new connection when ip chagnes can't you just log routeros new ppp sessions? http://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Manual:System/Log looks like you should be able to jan/27 17:20:30 system,error,critical login failure for user admin from 122.225.109.220 via ssh ssh should never have been publicly available hmm looks like traffic from Toronto on Bell to Toronto / Teksavvy traverses Chicago and goes via he.net https://gist.github.com/anonymous/fb07f03a00c33fcd2bc7 Gist: "Toronto / Bell to Toronto /Teksavvy via Chicago" Has anyone else had issues not receiving responses from support@? This isn't a slight against up_the_irons, not at all. Rather, I sent an email from my company account 9 hours and never received the autoresponse, but I just sent an email from my personal account and immediately got an autoresponse. (and yes, I did check my spam :p) i think there's greylisting bryce. dunno if you can check the mail queue i kind of wish these things were more transparent mnathani: that does look broken although it doesn't look like latency is any worse than los angeles to los angeles going via san jose? Yeah I have no hands on the exchange server :p But I'd assume 9 hours would be plenty for greylisting to have retried :/ Oh well maybe the exchange server doesn't retry. hmm i think exchange can be a bit weird about dns too oh there's only one dns entry there's also ipv6 on email it's not that exchange is trying ipv6 and failing or something stupid like that? I have no way of knowing https://exchangemaster.wordpress.com/2013/07/10/once-again-unchecking-ipv6-on-a-nic-breaks-exchange-2013/ not related but funny none the less wow the post below that is sacry apparently gmail was(is?) blocking any emails coming in with ipv6 hostnames in the headers without reverse lookups but yeah as as short term solution maybe email from somewhere else? but you'd probably have to check the exchange end and have arp check their end to debug what's happening with mail mnathani: if you have a mikrotik device, they have their own svc built into the software on some routeros devices that's kind of cool it's "mynetname" or something /ip/cloud in the cli err, ip cloud print should show you if your device supports it m0unds1: no cloud under my /ip section RouterOS v6.5
