cahess has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 264 seconds) up_the_irons: brycec: kvr18 is gonna be upgraded soon, i think that will solve your panic issues
mercutio: thanks for helping out sorressean mercutio: i didn't help him
brycec did up_the_irons: mercutio: oh i read that wrong sorry
brycec: thanks for helping sorressean ! cahess_: Hi all. Having trouble getting into portal.arpnetworks.com ... just curious if anyone else is as well before I make stronger coffee. brycec: lol up_the_irons. of course, I was happy I could help. I was around and my eyesight is a bit better (though I really, really need to get a new prescription)
cahess_: loads fine for me. What error are you getting? cahess_: Strange. The error I'm getting is "The page you were looking for doesn't exist. You may have mistyped the address or the page may have moved." brycec: Are you behind a proxy, maybe? cahess_: I'm not ... but, I just reinstalled OS X on this machine, and didn't have anything but Safari. Works in Chrome ... fancy that =) brycec: That's quite peculiar. Either you've made a typo (but you're probably copy/pasting the url between browsers) or you have some weird addon in Safari, I'd guess.
loads fine in my Safari on Yosemite cahess_: It just updated Safari after reinstalling the OS. Had worked in Safari previously. It's all still vanilla ... but, yeah, I was copying/pasting the url. I'll chock it up to another Safari oddity for me.
what version of Safari is on your machine? brycec: 8.0.6 it says m0unds: portal loads fine in safari for me too ***: mkb has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 265 seconds)
mkb has joined #arpnetworks cahess_: Oddest thing. I'm on Yosemite, current (8.0.6) version of Safari, and no plugins or add-ons. Chrome works OK, Safari doesn't. But that error when I look a little closer is giving me a 404, with the URL: https://portal.arpnetworks.com/dashboard
oh well. thanks for checking. I'll beat on this thing for a bit to see what's up with it brycec: No problem. mnathani: brycec: is that safari / yosemite in virtualbox or bare metal mac? brycec: Real mac
MacBook Pro mnathani: do you use the imessage ?? brycec: No
I barely use the machine nowadays at all :p mnathani: I like having a mac around if I need to walk someone through something
virtual or otherwise mnathani_: using archlinux on bare metal has this really nice feeling, kind of like when I switched from nano to vi m0unds: drivers in the new ppc-based rb launched in september don't support fasttrack. guess that's why it doesn't work. it'd be cool if mikrotik ever kept their official docs updated. ***: d^_^b has joined #arpnetworks
sng has quit IRC (Remote host closed the connection) mercutio: i reckon it's having an issue going to http rather than https and redirecting to portal; at a guess
if it only can find address on chrome..
hmm, redirects fine for me brycec: Yeah exactly. and http issues a 30X and redirects nicely anyways
*301 mercutio: yeh i checked with curl
it could be some bug with safari
hmm, you can register a portal account
but yeah loads with spartan.
(was trying to think of browsers that i have that may be weird) brycec: I think my next test if I were cahess_ would be to tcpdump and see what's happening mercutio: nope brycec: (or not use Safari :P) mercutio: well i mean it wouldn't be mine :)
if i was cahess i'd just not use safari
:) brycec: Perhaps but that's an awful way to debug a Safari issue ;P cahess_: I cleared all the browsing data and cookies, cleared the DNS Cache, and restarted Safari and it worked =) mercutio: cool cahess brycec: Alright then :) cahess_: BUT, I am inclined to agree with @mercutio and not use Safari =P Just hadn't gotten around to installing Chrome yet. m0unds: safari's good if you run on battery with any regularity mercutio: m0unds: ahh i didn't think of that brycec: My number 1 use of Safari is installing Chrome. Number 2 is when I don't feel like launching Chrome and all its windows, I just need a quick browser. mercutio: that is how i am with ie on windows cahess_: They still make IE? mercutio: yip m0unds: ...never gets old
i guess brycec: IE on Win8.1 is not as bad as I remembered it being. mercutio: i have ie11 m0unds: the profiler view is nice mercutio: i find ie's a lot lighter than other browsers m0unds: f12 by default mercutio: it's disturbing :) brycec: I used to find it completely unusable. Now it fills the same position as Safari on OSX for me :p mercutio: less memory, less cpu etc. cahess_: I haven't used Windows since 2010 ... Mac or *nix for me, thanks =) mercutio: i found macos a lot more annoynig to setup
but then i was trying to use it as a hybrid between windows/unix
like the virtual desktop stuff by default that opens terminals in the same virtual desktop as your previous terminal..
so you have to run some script thingy to make it work
which takes fiddling around..
when linux just acts "sensibly" with regards to virtual desktop
gnome would have an option if they tried doing such a thing :/ brycec: I don't think that's how it works... mercutio: it's how it worked for me.. brycec: On Yosemit, if I click "new window" it opens on the workspace I'm on, not the workspace other windows of that app are open in mercutio: maybe it changed
http://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/11323/how-can-i-open-a-terminal-window-directly-from-my-current-finder-location
hmm no that is diff issue
arhg
http://superuser.com/questions/98521/how-to-get-terminal-windows-to-span-multiple-desktops-in-osx
ok it changed in 10.9 it seems
what's yosemite like bryce?
i seemed to find that upgrades kept making things worse brycec: heh m0unds: yosemite is a lot better than the pile of buggy shit that was mavericks brycec: It's okay. I'm not a heavy user [anymore] so I don't care. Mostly it was a visual style change, plus some improvements in battery information
Oh and improvements with notifications
I only upgraded to Yosemite because they stopped releasing security updates to Mavericks (or some such)
I'm slightly annoyed that I can't [reasonably,safely] have TRIM enabled for my SSD but that's my only gripe. m0unds: i have an app that adds a kext to enable trim for ssds
forgot the name
checks on boot, warns if the patch is disabled brycec: I do too, but since Yosemite changed kext signing...
I have to completely disable kext signing and that's annoying m0unds: meh, i'd rather have working trim
it'd be nice if osx handled trim like every other os, haha brycec: Oh but they do... for their own whitelisted SSDs :P
And in a way, I can't wholly fault them for it. They make their software work on their hardware. There's no reasonable expectation for them to make it work with stuff they don't see m0unds: sure
but they support plenty of third party devices without any weird goofiness ***: t7243Gues is now known as pjs m0unds: i guess it just boils down to core hardware vs peripherals brycec: Yeah, it is a "weird" double-standard mercutio: yeh i had a lot of problems on g4 because i had to use more recent os x and it was worse.
but stuff didn't support the older version
mac os kind of forces you into upgrades.
both of software and hardware :/
it was around 10.5 or 10.6 that was the most recent version for g4. m0unds: i probably wouldn't have gotten a macbook if not for the annoying tradeoffs that existed for ultrabooks BryceBot: That's what she said!! m0unds: slower cpu, inbuilt non-upgradeable ssds in lots of them, bad displays, etc brycec: 10.5 as I recall mercutio: yeah looks like 10.5
which was slower :/ brycec: I thought Macbooks had all those issues too, except decent displays? m0unds: macbook pro = user replaceable ssd, good battery life, i7 cpu, 8gb ram base
mine is pre retina mercutio: all the ultrabooks kind of suck i thought brycec: I guess I'm thinking of Airbooks
er, Macbook Airs m0unds: yea, my wife has a macbook air
she got it her last year in grad school, got an edu discount on it - $1200ish for the higher end one w/256gb ssd and stuff mercutio: does os x go ok on low ram? brycec: (People say "macbook" and there are three different "macbook" lines, it's confusing) mercutio: i don't understand why they seem to skimp on ram so much m0unds: yea mercutio: m0unds: is it 4gb ram? m0unds: my mbp supports up to 16gb, hers has 4gb iirc mercutio: non-upgrable ram, right? m0unds: right
mine shipped with a 750gb disk, i replaced it with a 240gb intel ssd mercutio: on windows on a laptop 8gb for light usage, 16gb for heavy usgae seems to be where it's at. m0unds: hers shipped w/a 256gb ssd, haswell based cpu mercutio: m0unds: is it one of those low ghz one?
ones m0unds: yep
not as low as the current ones mercutio: i find the cpu in my chromebook quite fast for linux m0unds: https://support.apple.com/kb/SP678?locale=en_US mercutio: which is a little slower than that stuff i think
it kind of surprised me how well it worked though
i think it was 2955u
there's new broadwell desktop cpu's coming out
intel seems to have actually shifted to slower cpu's for desktop for the first time..
laptop's got slower already :)
it used to be that everyone thought they needed a fast cpu ***: nclee has joined #arpnetworks

CVE-2015-3636 sounds bad
oh it's only bad on non-x86-64
i wish ubuntu said that ....
basically escalation vulneribility using ping mnathani_: how can I simulate multiple sites connected via openvpn and cisco routers on a single machine? I intend to use pfSense and virtualization phlux: lol wtf mnathani_: On x86-64 architecture systems, a local user able to create ping sockets could use this flaw to crash the system WOW mercutio: well that's not as bad as the escalation vulnerability mnathani_: crash the system could be viewed as a denial of service mercutio: yeh
there's heaps of denial of service attacks with a user
on most systems you used to be able to do fork bombs trivally
i don't know how it's changed now
but most people don't have ulimits setup or anything..
if you have a load issue it's not nearly as bad as executing code as root
i mean you hack me, and my system crashes...
i reboot it and it's fine and i find out what you did and kick you out
but if you had root you could just hide and change password mnathani_: much worse mercutio: and be much more annoying.

there's some new qemu vulnerability too
on cursory look i couldn't understand it though BryceBot: That's what she said!! mercutio: it's all about MSI etc
also something with PCNET driver

i kindof though cuba was despised brycec: mercutio: in 1945, pre-embargo when people still liked Cuba mercutio: oh
is cuba to the US like north korea is to south korea? brycec: No?
And if you hadn't heard, the embargo is lifted, they're just another carribean country now mercutio: ok i don't really know what happened brycec: albeit one severely economically depressed mercutio: it's communist right? brycec: So they claim mercutio: oh so things are fine now brycec: I guess, relatively.
But Castro hasn't been effective as dictator for awhile now.
And "most people" just want to be happy and prosper
Oh Wikipedia says I'm wrong, the embargo is still in place but it's been relaxed, and the US-Cuba relationship has eased. mercutio: ahh ok staticsafe: so I solved my little Cogent problem mercutio: what cogent problem was that?
preferring EU route to US from Cogent? staticsafe: mercutio: yeah mnathani_: staticsafe: was that related to your bgp announcement from ARP? mercutio: staticsafe: i'd prepend cogent in EU to US if it was just that EU provider and ARP...
as arp hasn't got a dircet cogent route staticsafe: well it was unintentionally solved as I added a another US node that had Cogent transit mercutio: ok
same diff
i can't find relevant community for that
but yeah the other way will work i suppose
not having cogent was a positive thing of arp when i joined
cogent has got a little better since then though
well for on-net staticsafe: still nothing in asia pacific for now, those regions are expensive and I haven't found a suitable provider yet mercutio: yeah AP is expensive
also routing sucks
arp shouldn't be too bad from AP staticsafe: indeed mercutio: strictly speaking i'm in AP
but pings are shorter to US than "AP" often staticsafe: I'll be addine a node in New York shortly as well mercutio: actually routes from china can be better performance than from china to US
but that's probably congestion related more than anything else
why do you need so many?
where's your other US one? staticsafe: Orlando, FL
via AS33182 mercutio: what's an ip on your network again? staticsafe: anycast1.as393949.net mercutio: yeh my route is hitting arp
so all good from here :)
oh wow it was hostdime
that was a guess just from location hah
san jose hits florida
uk hits arp staticsafe: interesting, via what transit provider? mercutio: level3/pccw
it was fine with ipv6
it was only ipv4 doing that
and my other uk host is fine
anycast is a bit of a pita staticsafe: it is
also because BGP is a fairly dumb protocol mercutio: ipv6 hits arp, ipv4 hits florida from japan
yeah you need to screw around with communities
which is different amongst different providers
that's why i'm normally go UK/US/AP
or such
so i don't worry about these slightly wrong things :)
i'm struggling to remember any locations i can try from
err any more mnathani_: he.net seems to like las01-01-edg01.knightswarm.net staticsafe: that is in Las Vegas mercutio: it works better if you haev the same upstreams in diff locations staticsafe: yeah mercutio: oh sydney i didn't check from
sydney is hitting arp mnathani_: is each node just a vm with identical services running? staticsafe: yeah mnathani_: and a unicast IP for management? staticsafe: indeed mercutio: how expensive was the uk one? staticsafe: 22.50 GBP per month normally, first month was 72 GBP due to set up fees mercutio: heh
@exch 22.50 GBP to USD BryceBot: 22.50 GBP -> 34.871448342986 USD (as of Wed, 10 Jun 2015 17:01:01 -0700) mercutio: oh not as bad as i thought
@exch 72 GBP to USD BryceBot: 72 GBP -> 111.58863469756 USD (as of Wed, 10 Jun 2015 17:01:01 -0700) mercutio: @exch 50 GBP to USD BryceBot: 50 GBP -> 77.492107428858 USD (as of Wed, 10 Jun 2015 17:01:01 -0700) mercutio: i cant' remember if arp charges a setup fee
if it does it's not much staticsafe: no setup fee mercutio: i wonder why
probably just to be nice staticsafe: Hostdime waived their usual setup fee for me mercutio: it's not like there's direct profit from offering bgp
what was their usual setup fee like? staticsafe: hm not a set up fee but a maintenance fee per month which is $50/mo mercutio: ahh sweet
that was nice of them staticsafe: yeah mercutio: did you check out he.net's graph? staticsafe: Hostdime is well connected to South America due to their NOTA connection
yeah mercutio: hmm knightswarm has the biggest chunk
well on ipv4
they don't do ipv6? staticsafe: they don't, they told me it is coming soon mercutio: hmm you have long path to level3
i think arp advertisement out level3 must not be working for some reason staticsafe: indeed
the graph may change yet, Hostdime has told me not all of their transits have updated their filters yet mercutio: hostdime charge $50 for virtual servers? staticsafe: yeah
its not their usual market demographic, they sell colo mostly mercutio: sounds like it's getting expensive -: brycec is colo'd with Hostdime (not me personally, but a group I work with) staticsafe: mercutio: it is, but this little project is not a long-term project, once I am done, I will settle with one provider to route my prefix, no anycast mercutio: ahh
you could do two? BryceBot: That's what she said!! staticsafe: mercutio: well, long term goal is to run some services like personal websites, SMTP etc. mercutio: ahh right
and you only have one /24 staticsafe: yeah mnathani_: how does GRE work when it comes to NAT?
can certain ports or protocols be forwarded to get it going?
can both routers participating in the GRE be behind their respective NATs, or does one need its own public IP on an interface
routers being cisco ofcourse brycec: Just wondering -why "cisco ofcourse"? mnathani_: because I am preparing for my CCNP
and its what I know best brycec: ah grody: hmm, how comes yahoo dont do IPv6 anymore
swore they did mercutio: GRE is a separate protocol twobithacker: iirc GRE doesn't do NAT traversal mercutio: it can to a single host on some routers twobithacker: ah, that'd make sense mercutio: basically i think whoever initiates GRE it'll return traffic to
ie it's quite dumb
i don't think it works with two GRE tunnels at once
but it may be to separate ip's m0unds: right, it doesn't
yeah mercutio: err it may to m0unds: that's been my experience twobithacker: this is why we should just adopt IPv6 everywhere and stop doing NAT :D mnathani_: I tried GRE over Openvpn using pfsense, which seems to work ok - but then again this was on a LAN and not public Internet mercutio: that'll work fine
but that creates quite a lot of ovehead per packet staticsafe: a common CCNP scenario is GRE + IPSec mnathani_
so if you are studying for that mnathani_: from what I know about IPSEC, its not very firewall friendly and I doubt vpn servers can live behind NAT, where as Openvpn only requires a single port to be forwarded

just press windows-tab
and right mouse button on a program and -> new desktop mnathani_: windows tab does nothing for me
I am running WIndows 8.1 mercutio: hmm ok
maybe it's new in 10
it wasn't in 7
just use 10 :)
otherwise stardock may have something? mnathani_: Probably just wait till its finalized and released July 29 or so mercutio: yeah
or just use linux :) brycec: dammit mercutio why are you breaking BryceBot ? mercutio: how'd i break it? brycec: the verbose thing mnathani_: brycec: could have been me also brycec: @weather mercutio: @weather akl
i think it's just buggy brycec: Yes it's a bug. But I blame mercutio. mercutio: sure blame me :) brycec: @weather BryceBot: brycec: Fetching weather for your previous query (99019).
Liberty Lake, WA: Clear 75°F (24°C), Humidity: 28%, Wind: From the South at 5.0 MPH Gusting to 13.0 MPH -- For more details including the forecast and almanac, see http://www.wunderground.com/cgi-bin/findweather/getForecast?query=47.624390,-117.092064 or re-request this with: @weather -v mercutio: has anyone here use the "dict" client? m0unds: windows tab was in win7
and vista
it did an aero task switch
there's no aero in win8/8.1, hence no aero task switch brycec: dict client to dictd? Not any time recently... In fact, I'm not sure I've used it this century. mercutio: ahh
i used to use it quite a lot
when i wanted to look up words
but it'd be cool if brycebot could work something like that :) brycec: I have plans to add @define back
$someday mercutio: like client/server
and just be able to type on local shell :) brycec: Ohhh
That's what I like to call "PM" mercutio: maybe there's something like that somewhere already? brycec: You can also DCC BryceBot, but that's localhost only ;)
(DCC CHAT to be precise) mercutio: yeah but setting up a relay for that would be a pita :) brycec: It's for admin only mercutio: for pm i mean
like a bot to query the bot? :) brycec: a relay for PM?
I'm so confused
But I have figured out how you triggered the bug! mercutio: so from a normal terminal shell you could look up stuff brycec: ircii mercutio: like open shell type cmd say bb @exch 20usd to nzd
bb being brycebot
how'd i trigger the bug? brycec: a second weather -v before it had replied to the first @weather -: mercutio schemes to write a bot mercutio: oh brycec: (it set a flag, etc) mercutio: so it was my fault! brycec: Yup.
yours and mine, technically mercutio: does freenode have open bot policy?
or just some servers or something brycec: Okay, I think the bug is fixed.
(At least as fixed as BryceBot's architecture will allow) mercutio: oh it needs bot in the name brycec: mercutio: link? mercutio: https://freenode.net/faq.shtml
search for "bot"
with the speech marks brycec: ah thx
Intel SSD 600GB for $250 http://sellout.woot.com/offers/intel-600gb-2-5-sata-solid-state-drive-4 mercutio: isn't woot refurb? brycec: That is a refurb, yes
(not always, but often)
And yes this is only SATA2 mercutio: ick brycec: but hey, $.25/GB was worth posting. mercutio: probably sandforce then
dunno what's normal, 850evos were like $100 for 250gb
but dunno if it larger is cheaper or more expensive now brycec: Currently $117
*118 mercutio: ahh brycec: I was going to buy one when they were $99 but missed it and the prices jacked up.
(So instead I went with a Transcend) mercutio: i have sandisk ultra and samsung evo's
in raid
the sandisk ultra's seem fine brycec: RAID would be nice, but my desktop only has a single m2 slot. mercutio: i think it was $180 for 480gb or soemthing
ahh
i'm using sata
i don't have any m2 brycec: (My desktop has a single SATA port too, but no place to mount it) mercutio: you can't get fast m2 slots yet brycec: SATA3 is "fast" mercutio: when they do pci-e 3 x4 it'd be nice
well yeh brycec: agreed mercutio: most motherboards are x2 pcie 2
so raid is still faster
