so I sit down at my CentOS desktop and find that it's calmoring to tell me about some notifications it's made up in my absence the Automatic Bug Reporting Tool and an Update I've already learned that it expects me to click and swipe up like an iPhone, so I do that and they appear in the middle of the screen in a transparent window I didn't know what to do, so I clicked one that made it disappear all I know is that the automatic bug reporter was concerned about Firefox, but Firefox hadn't crashed Firefox does have a lot of bugs though aha! it sent a mail to root but it says firefox crashed and it was still there... Quantum crashing. It's both crashed and not crashed at the same time. but mkb is clearly observing it it changed it's state as he did *its spell check is a pita hmm people were talking about arp on nanog indeed bgp+routed ip i think interest of small providers doing anycast is growing. and atm it seems easiest to use different providers which is kind of a pita i have PI space but no AS yet so no BGP for me yet just a /24? yes and a v6 /48 oh yip so.. I managed to get openvpn to provide ipv6 connectivity via a v4 tunnel nice now I am having issues getting Router Advertisements to work on a Linux box to provide addressing to LAN hosts using radvd? static IPv6 addressing works for hosts behind the tunnel too so thats cool acf_: I guess thats what I was looking for, wasn't sure what it was called this is my config: http://paste.unixcube.org/k/96bcb8 /etc/radvd.conf thanks mnathani_: I'm guessing your client boxen are still mtu 1500.. are you having any trouble accessing Google services? you should definitely clamp not really using this setup for any real users mainly testing vms and cisco devices I really should document the v6 over a v4 tunnel can radvd provide ipv6 default gateway yes that configuration does ^ you are right. It was a dns / ipv4 issue I think radvd can do IPv6 DNS 1452 is the highest packet size I can ping google with is it necessary to set the mtu on each host, or only the host terminating the vpn? mnathani_: if path mtu discovery works, just on your VPN endpoint interfaces but Google doesn't appear to handle PMTUD correctly, at least for IPv6 so you'd need to set the MTU on all of the hosts in some tests I got upto 1402 other tests 1452 probably safe to set mtu to something like 1410 yea I use 1400 on mine, just to play it safe does that set ipv4 and ipv6 at the same time? or can you set them independently? on Linux, that's the interface MTU for all protocols I remember setting the MTU on Windows, and I think you might be able to do it per protocol I guess I could try and set separate interface for v4 and v6 s/set/use I guess I could try and use separate interface for v4 and v6 (In theory, 1280 is the "safest bet" for ipv6 mtu, it's the minimum) does mtu have an impact on maximum speed attainable on say a speed test? Yes insomuch as it requires a higher packet rate to achieve the same bandwidth. brycec: gotcha It's not likely to have any /real/ impact on your speed though. it might for bittorrent but not for normal traffic well not much And not on <100mbps pipes well ipv6 does increase overhead But if you're trying to sustain 1gbps for instance, then you start to care about your PPS a lot more. 40 bytes for ip header, 20 bytes for tcp/ip, 12 bytes with tcp options so that's 72 bytes.. oh right i would say not really depending on your system coalescing mostly fixes it. @google coalescing 197,000 total results returned for 'coalescing', here's 3 Null coalescing operator - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Null_coalescing_operator) The null coalescing operator (called the Logical Defined-Or operator in Perl, Elvis -operator in Groovy and Kotlin) is a binary operator that is part of the syntax for ...

I should just uninstall it and see if anything complains. :) i tried using gentoo years back gnome took hours to buiild "gentoo - for those times when your life isn't slow enough..." it seemed like a good idea at the time there was a lightning talk at SCaLE about picking a linux distro it was pretty awesome i am finding arch ok yeah - the talks aren't archived online yet I'm building packages at 730/hour :) anyone pay for dropbox storage?
