sure mick_laptop: anything is "hackable" -- but I'd have it on it's own server and just isolate it from everything else chroot'ed apache (or using a bsd jail...) jeev: got a name? :) mick_laptop: there are a few open source ones which are pretty good

jeev: you were looking for something like a "live help" thing, right? toddf: up_the_irons: wrt the uart fix thing, does that remove the necessary 'disable mpbios' for OpenBSD or does that fix something else? ***: amdprophet has quit IRC (Remote closed the connection)

vtoms has left up_the_irons: toddf: something else completely; "fix" a small issue with qemu serial emulation that caused a problem with FreeBSD's new uart(4) driver toddf: ah up_the_irons: toddf: although if there is a specific commit (or two or three...) in QEMU upstream or KVM that you think will fix the mpbios issue, I can cherry-pick it now and rebuild toddf: I wish I could help, but until qemu current upstream runs on OpenBSD without SEGV'ing .. ;-(
it would be an easy test, just boot your qemu template for OpenBSD w/out the 'disable mpbios' fix in current qemu and that should either work or hang, if it works, there's a cherry-picking to look for, if it doesn't, they still suck up_the_irons: yeah true toddf: while qemu - kvm isn't slow slow, booting a kernel for testing doesn't take forever either, it hangs at the 'setting tty flags' line, which is when serial ports are probed, which is why my ears perked up when speaking of serial port issues being resolved, but somehow I suspect you're right and this won't fix things for OpenbSD
s/probed/first frobbed from userland/ up_the_irons: toddf: ah, serial port probe.. i can certainly give it a try ***: visinin has joined #arpnetworks

you're looking for management? rtjmay: not necessarily, I just want to know what to expect jeev: i'd say it's unmanaged but dont take my word for i
t
no questions about stability and stuff? :) i dont remember the last second of downtime i had.
infact, i've never ;D rtjmay: what level of access is provided? Just a terminal or web-based? jeev: you get ssh console access, mrtg if you want and the obvious, ssh into your server if you want
if you isntall that actually but i think you get ssh console access in the beginning rtjmay: I've seen good reviews about service and uptime, but not a lot of information on what is provided? jeev: yea, i think other than what's on the website.. i know he's working on adding stuff round the clock
but it's just like getting a dedicated server rtjmay: what BSDs are offered? jeev: i think open and free
i know free, i think open.. toddf is an openbsd developer rtjmay: what verui
versions? jeev: as far as freebsd 7.2. i think 8.0 is going into beta soon, although some people may have upgraded themselves
openbsd, i have no idea. rtjmay: what are you running? jeev: 7.2 rtjmay: are vm's provisioned for you or is it self-serve? ***: rtjmay_ has joined #arpnetworks jeev: as in do you just get a console and install it yoursefl ? rtjmay: yes jeev: they're provisioned, im not sure about the install it yourself, i'm sure if you asked.. you'd get
i think they're also looking into giving a single slice of / which i'd prefer, rather than the default slices rtjmay: thanks, I think I'll pick up a basic plan jeev: you should probably request the slices if you want / or default.. ***: rtjmay_ has quit IRC (Client Quit) jeev: cool, good luck
you deal with any other companies before ? DaCa: for openbsd, when I ordered 4.6 was not available yet on the order form, apparently now it is jeev: yea i just noticed openbsd written on the site DaCa: but anyway, it's easy to upgrade, I am running a recent snapshot at the moment ***: rtjmay_ has joined #arpnetworks jeev: ahh
how you like openbsd? i dont recall ever trying it DaCa: and you have have both vnc and serial console in addition to regular ssh
so when you mess things up, you can recover
jeev: well, I have been running openbsd for years, it's my favourite :) jeev: ahh toddf: especially with the cdrom .. one thing I wish (qemu) could set at the monitor propmt was the media it boots from, unless I missed it, you have to reboot to choose a different boot disk..
but yeah, soon as I got console access I re-installed my openbsd kvm from 4.5 to 4.6-current DaCa: toddf: I have the 4.5 cdrom attached, which is completely useless, I just fetch a bsd.rd and install over the net jeev: huh toddf toddf: well, its not useless if the hard drive is hozed, can recover easily jeev: you can run qemu-kvm and maake it mount a cd toddf: jeev: at arpnetworks I can select cdrom vs disk boot?
jeev: I mean q/out exiting qmeu jeev: ahh sroute: rtjmay: I believe Garry is putting up a minimal install of your OS of choice; you can always change that once it is up. I take a bare minimum FreeBSD and then trick it outmyself. Like Xen you can make and install your own world and kernel DaCa: toddf: btw, which mirror do you use? I noticed that the one proposed by the installer is very slow, I found that obsd.isc.org (aka ftp5.usa) has about lowest latency, but is actually still a lot slower than alberta schmir: I thought people were running openbsd only on firewalls. why do you use it? I've used FreeBSD some years ago..and can understand why one chooses that (instead of say linux). but why openbsd? ***: rtjmay has quit IRC (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))

ChanServ sets mode: +o heavysixer toddf: DaCa: I use ftp5.usa.openbsd.org not because of speed but because of v6
the installer provides a guess at a mirror, its not providing a guranteed good and fast one, but one that will work
schmir: uh, security is not limited to firewalls
I use OpenBSD on my desktop and all my systems, openafs servers, hosting, etc. jeev: crazy schmir: :) toddf: then there's the (IMHO) superior package management framework, and the 'it just works' mentra plus the 'secure by default' mentra .. jeev: how do you remind someone something if they promised it to you
passively
i prefer a way i could inject it in their brain while they're asleep toddf: I've never installed another os where the only twiddling one has to do is to enable what one wants, instead of frantically racing against the internet people to disable all the blasted default stuff enabled .. jeev: toddf, screen shot of your desktop ;D toddf: http://todd.fries.net/pub/screenshot.jpg schmir: toddf: I'll probably try it someday. archlinux behaves pretty similar here. jeev: hmm
i'd kill myself if i had to look at that all day toddf: hah
some people are gui whores jeev: :> toddf: I'm a minimalist DaCa: toddf: cwm? :) schmir: I'd kill myself if I had to use cvs toddf: right on jeev: i can't wait to get a ssd so i could dump vista and get win 7
i already have an ssd but for my desktop i need a good one
hey, wouldn't that be cool if arps was the first to have ssd toddf: I can't stand anything proprietary os wize jeev: arp was first to have ssd
i for one would pay a dollar a month more for 10 gigs on ssd!
haha toddf: jeev: to .. not use it still? jeev: raid 10 on ssd, how much toddf: or have you started using your kvm instance yet? jeev: i dont use it much, i mirror helio's evoke thingy for bsd
google evoke google code
http://code.google.com/p/evoke/ evoke is really cool
i've used it to wipe dedicated's clean before i cancel
so i make sure they dont go recover shit
but of course.. openbsd can probably do it by default. toddf: if all you want to do is wipe the hd
http://code.freedaemon.com/p/secwipe
runnable from any openbsd bsd.rd jeev: heh
but i assume it has to be unmounted toddf: in bsd.rd its in ram so the real hd of course is not mounted jeev: crazy
i'ev got to give openbsd a try one day
toddf, does bsd.rd have the ability to inject something into someone's mind while they're sleeping so they can remember it ?!? toddf: only if you add /dev/head to it before booting jeev: hmm, too much work..
i guess i have to wait for him to remember it, i am very annoyed.. i was perfectly happy toddf: I've never seen fuming work over a misremembered promise, I'd recommend you outright remind the person
s/promise/promise work/ jeev: that's why i dont want to remind ;D ***: schmir has quit IRC (Remote closed the connection) toddf: so you can get a good fume out? jeev: mick_laptop, thanks but i think i'm gonna get this hosted one instead cause it lets me pop into their screen
huh todd toddf: me: I dont see fuming work, I recommend you outright remind..
you: thats why i dont want to remind jeev: oh
well if it was that big of a deal, you'd still remind ? toddf: I like the simple reality. either remind or forget, not stress my life away, regardless the size of the deal. deal and move on, I say. jeev: yea, im gonna try to forget.
i sort of reminded once ***: rtjmay_ has quit IRC (Read error: 104 (Connection reset by peer))
