Didn't you see the discussion about that? | [13:49] |
| CESSMASTER | no | [13:49] |

And some didn't want a male anus | [13:49] |

| dxtr | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Human_anus
There :) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Human_anus#Endless_image_contention More like that That would bring it around full circle to where it's been a couple of years. We had a cropped, shaved, bleached porn-anus in this article for a while, it was determined unsuitable (and a copyvio) and replaced with the current hairy man-hole. All we need is a neutral-looking and not-overly-hairy, suitable for an anatomy text I have actually considered taking a photo of my own anus for the article (as far as I am aware, mine is pretty typical) just to put an end to this. Unfortunately, I don't think I'll be able to hold the camera at the right angle to get a decent shot. :( If you take a close look at the 'porn' anus in hi-res, it doesn't actually appear to have been shaved or bleached. Yeah I think you get it please remove picture of male anus and replace with female anus Fartbarker 22:44, 28 January 2007 (UTC | [13:50] |
| CESSMASTER | hahahahahahahaha | [13:52] |
| dxtr | This arguement is ridiculous....if you don't want to see an anus, be it male or female or hairy or not so hairy...um don't come to this page? Yeah...now if you want to see a female anus to masturbate to for whatever reason, how bout you go find a porn site? The gender of the person with the anus does not matter. An anus is an anus is anus. Deal with it. Don't want to see it, ...
... don't go to the anus page... Are aliens coming to this page? Anyone from the animal kingdom who isn't human? We don't need photos of anuses, ok? We just simply do not. It's gratuitous, inappropriate, nearing pornographic and quite ridiculous. Everyone has an anus and they know what it looks like. If an image is *absolutely* necessary, i think i diagram or drawing would suffice. 71.232.108.228 07:01, 23 ... | [13:52] |

half of these aren't even linked to a wikipedia article | [13:54] |

after they went through the first copyright violation/sharia law purge, they replaced a lot of the sex article pictures with drawings (and occasionally in non-human flesh tones) I think they stopped doing that. | [13:54] |

| cedwards | cedwards steps away for the afternoon and comes back to talk of anuses. wtf. | [16:37] |
| Wraithan | A thing that is a bit problematic (could just be configuration stuff from what I am reading) is that my VPS is only showing one core? | [16:41] |
| cedwards | Wraithan: both of mine show the same | [16:42] |
| Wraithan | :(
The dual 4 core servers made me think I'd have multiple cores, even if it was 2-4 (4 seems standard these days for VPS) | [16:43] |
| william``` | don't arpnetworks vps only have a single cpu? | [16:45] |
| Wraithan | Yeah, just found that out
which could be problematic | [16:45] |
| william``` | little weird if you're used to linode/slicehost
:) unfortunately, neither of those offer bsd... | [16:46] |
| Wraithan | Wraithan doesn't care about the BSD offerings lol
up_the_irons: So the servers are multi-core but the VPSs only get access to a single core? | [16:46] |
| brb | [16:52] | |
| *** | Wraithan has quit IRC (Quit: WeeChat 0.3.3-dev)
Wraithan has joined #arpnetworks | [16:52] |
| cedwards | I understand it as a single, dedicated core whereas the others are multiple, shared cores. | [16:56] |
| Wraithan | Yes, but having it as a single rather than multiple means if I go to compile a package I could bring my webservices to a halt/crawl | [17:01] |
| william``` | you can nice the compilation process
give it a priority of 20 | [17:02] |
| Wraithan | I have to make sure I do anything that could be detrimental as nice, which is a hassle | [17:02] |
| jdoe | it's not a dedicated core, is it? | [17:02] |
| *** | ballen has joined #arpnetworks
ChanServ sets mode: +o ballen | [17:02] |
| jdoe | presumably it's a ... single core that you get some slice of as determined by scheduling on the host. | [17:02] |
| Wraithan | william```: Yes I know but I compile packages weekly, among other things that are CPU intensive | [17:02] |
| william``` | why do you have to compile things weekly? o.O
are you running gentoo or something? :) | [17:03] |
| Wraithan | No, but I run cutting edge on several packages | [17:04] |
| jdoe | ... or freebsd, or openbsd ;) | [17:04] |
| Wraithan | Every 3 weeks is a new kernel release, that I will have to compile, I am running trunk of python 2.7 for a couple of my projects, and trunk of python 3.2 for some other stuff | [17:06] |
| william``` | ouch | [17:06] |
| Wraithan | Once 2.7 is official I wont have to compile it anymore, but until then I need to be tested against the latest so I can confidently push a release on 2.7 as soon as 2.7 is stable. | [17:07] |
| cedwards | I compile all my ports on FreeBSD and I haven't seen any issues yet. | [17:07] |
| Wraithan | Does your system default to nice'ing the compilation?
Btw, recompiled kernel makes my system work 100% | [17:08] |
| william``` | what was happening before you recompiled it? | [17:10] |
| Wraithan | hanging because virtio was a module, not compiled in. | [17:11] |
| william``` | :( | [17:13] |
| Wraithan | scp is amazing :) | [17:16] |
| cedwards | rsync is more amazing? | [17:17] |
| william``` | not the same thing | [17:22] |

| cedwards | so I'm playing around with FreeBSD in KVM locally. Can anyone tell me how to activate console access, like is available at ARP? | [18:27] |
| *** | heavysixer has quit IRC (Quit: BAMPF!) | [18:27] |

:) | [18:30] |
| up_the_irons | cedwards: -serial telnet:127.0.0.1:<port>,server,nowait
cedwards: then telnet to localhost and that port | [18:31] |
| Nat_UB | Or that.... hehehe | [18:31] |
| up_the_irons | Nat_UB: looks like an actual serial console, doesn't it? ;) | [18:32] |
| *** | heavysixer has joined #arpnetworks

| Nat_UB | yes...rather neat implementation | [18:32] |
| up_the_irons | thanks
I credit toddf for pointing me in the right direction and providing hints / tips | [18:32] |
| cedwards | looks like I'm close based on this: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en/books/handbook/serialconsole-setup.html
I can see the boot output, but can't yet login. | [18:40] |
| *** | nukeAFK has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 268 seconds) | [18:43] |
| up_the_irons | cedwards: you need to run a getty on /dev/ttyu0
or ttyd0 (FreeBSD 7.2 and below) | [18:44] |
| cedwards | that might be my problem. I setup ttyd0, but I'm running 8.0.
I'll try ttyu0 | [18:45] |
| up_the_irons | 8.0 uses uart(4) by default, not sio(4), so yeah, you'll need ttyu0 | [18:46] |
| cedwards | (I'm testing this on Ubuntu 10.04 using virsh console and virt-manager) | [18:46] |
| up_the_irons | nice
should have the serial fix in it then, and you'll have no problems | [18:46] |
| cedwards | Edit /etc/ttys and change off to on and dialup to vt100 for the ttyd0 entry. Otherwise a password will not be required to connect via the serial console, resulting in a potential security hole.
that is from the handbook. you say just change ttyd0 to ttyu0 and it should work for 8.0? | [18:48] |
| up_the_irons | yes
handbook must not be updated for 8.0 yet | [18:48] |
| Wraithan | up_the_irons: the VPSs are all single core? | [18:49] |
| up_the_irons | Wraithan: yes, unless you order more ($2 per core) | [18:49] |
| Wraithan | Ah I was not aware... maybe I didn't notice
up_the_irons: would I send an email to support@ in order to request the extra(s)? | [18:50] |
| up_the_irons | most are happy with just a single core
Wraithan: yup | [18:51] |
| william``` | what is the max number of cores you can have on a single vps? | [18:51] |
| Wraithan | Heh, i use my vps for multiple things, which need the ability to be spread out on different cores | [18:51] |
| cedwards | for documentation sake: I added 'console="comconsole"' to /boot/loader.conf and made the above change to /etc/ttys. | [18:51] |
| up_the_irons | william```: 8 | [18:52] |
| william``` | so that is baseline vps price + $14 (7 additional cores) per month? | [18:52] |
| up_the_irons | cedwards: i find it a little easier to just "echo "-D" > /boot.config"
william```: yes | [18:53] |
| william``` | cool, noted :) | [18:54] |
| up_the_irons | np | [18:54] |
| william``` | what is the average response time for support tickets?
i'm looking to migrate off of linode to arpnetworks entirely | [18:54] |
| up_the_irons | william```: depends on the request | [18:54] |
| william``` | root pass reset :-) | [18:55] |
| cedwards | up_the_irons: ohh, now you tell me. pfft. | [18:55] |
| fink | up_the_irons: do you guys cater? | [18:55] |
| up_the_irons | vps reset (format / reinstall) is usually like 24 / 48 hours | [18:55] |
| fink | fink is hankering for some choco cupcakes | [18:55] |
| william``` | up_the_irons: it requires a reinstall to reset the root pass? o.O | [18:55] |
| up_the_irons | william```: not applicable -- you can reset your root password on your own in single-user mode -- http://support.arpnetworks.com/faqs/vps/what-is-supported
fink: only cupcakes | [18:55] |
| william``` | oh, great
thanks | [18:56] |
| up_the_irons | william```: no no, just giving an example of support request ;) | [18:56] |
| william``` | i'll make sure i log in more than once every 1.5 months so i don't forget in the future :)
i still do 99% of my stuff on linode :-/ | [18:56] |
| fink | lamenode | [18:56] |
| up_the_irons | LOL | [18:56] |
| william``` | they're ok, but... linux
william``` stabs himself in the face | [18:56] |
| up_the_irons | never used them, but hear they are a pretty decent provider
probably one of the top | [18:57] |
| william``` | having choice of five datacenters is cool | [18:57] |
| up_the_irons | i bet | [18:57] |
| william``` | and their support is good | [18:57] |
| cedwards | they need to move away from xen though or they'll be stuck on dying tech | [18:57] |
| up_the_irons | yeah, their higher prices can afford staff :)
cedwards: yes, srsly | [18:57] |
| william``` | haha, not a jibe, just an observation :-) | [18:58] |
| fink | if you guys had cupcakes you would leave lamenode in the lamelagoon | [18:58] |
| cedwards | we've been talking a lot about virtualization at work and I've simply told them to wait until kvm is well-done.
no point in starting things out on xen, and having to rebuild later. | [18:58] |
| Wraithan | cedwards: we are using kvm at work right now | [18:59] |
| up_the_irons | william```: right, didn't take it as a jibe, was also just observing ;) | [18:59] |
| william``` | :) | [18:59] |
| cedwards | Wraithan: I just got a Dell R900 to start testing with.
up_the_irons: so I removed my previous changes and tried simply "-D" in /boot.config. The console stalls out at trying to mount root from ufs:/dev/ad0s1a | [18:59] |
| up_the_irons | cedwards: that's probably just the end of it writing; the next will be getty | [19:02] |
| Wraithan | We have a custom built server, pretty nice gear in it... I mainly just bring it to it's knees while I am doing a naive first pass of stuff though
go go 1600 queries to render a single page! | [19:03] |
| up_the_irons | cedwards: i'd say kvm is already well-done. I've replaced Xen completely with KVM at this point. Things work even *better* | [19:03] |
| william``` | 1600 queries? o_o | [19:04] |
| cedwards | up_the_irons: we're mostly a RHEL shop, so I've been kind of just holding out for KVM to be provided there in RHEL6 (although I think they offered it in 5.5 too) | [19:04] |
| ballen | whens RHEL6 supposed to be out?
or 5.5 for that matter | [19:05] |
| Wraithan | william```: you've never done a naive first pass with a ORM, without any optimization in mind?
Wraithan ponders when RHEL will die. Wraithan hates it. | [19:05] |
| ballen | never will | [19:05] |
| up_the_irons | cedwards: i c | [19:05] |
| ballen | its a decent version of Linux | [19:05] |
| Wraithan | No it isn't | [19:05] |
| william``` | Wraithan: i use an ORM daily :-) | [19:05] |
| ballen | especially if you have a large enterprise site license | [19:05] |
| Wraithan | It is the reason good projects have to support old garbage | [19:06] |
| ballen | if you have a kickstart server setup, local yum repos, etc | [19:06] |
| Wraithan | They still support Python 2.3
or maybe JUST phased it out, I forget | [19:06] |
| ballen | they're plenty of ways to get around old versions
just like you would in Solaris | [19:06] |
| Wraithan | Yeah, typically it is hacks to make it work on old versions as well as new
it makes for shit code because you have to support something so old. | [19:07] |
| up_the_irons | Anything RH-based gets hacked | [19:07] |
| ballen | well anything CentOS gets hacked
RH is less worse off | [19:08] |
| up_the_irons | nah, all my RH servers got hacked, i've never run Cent | [19:08] |
| ballen | plus it has a lot of industry support as far as paid apps go | [19:08] |
| Wraithan | Plus (in my very limited experience with it) making RPMs SUCKS | [19:09] |
| ballen | yes RPM's are lame
just saying its not as bad as most people thing it is as is most things | [19:09] |
| *** | nukeAFK has joined #arpnetworks | [19:09] |
| ballen | think* | [19:09] |
| Wraithan | I'm just saying setups like RHEL are part of the reason why technology isn't moving forward as fast as it could. | [19:09] |
| up_the_irons | making RPMs sucks, but so does making .deb's
they all suck | [19:10] |
| Wraithan | up_the_irons: that is why you make PKGBUILDs
they don't suck | [19:10] |
| up_the_irons | been meaning to look into Arch Linux pacman stuff; it seems a lot simpler | [19:10] |
| ballen | Arch is good
and yes pacman is wicked simple but Arch is bleeding edge no matter what compat be damned | [19:10] |
| Wraithan | ballen: http://www.archserver.org/ | [19:11] |
| up_the_irons | i like *BSD package stuff as well, since they are mainly just tarballs | [19:11] |
| Wraithan | up_the_irons: arch recently moved to using tar.xz's for packaging :)
tiny downloads | [19:11] |
| up_the_irons | nice | [19:11] |
| ballen | arch server is interesting, but if I really have my choice I'd just pick FreeBSD
no reason to use Linux for most things | [19:11] |
| Wraithan | I've never (directly) used *BSD and could say the same thing about it. | [19:12] |
| up_the_irons | it's all about taste | [19:12] |
| Wraithan | Yup | [19:12] |
| ballen | well theres certainly ease of use
and FreeBSD has a lot of that | [19:12] |
| Wraithan | I said something smart the other about it | [19:13] |
| up_the_irons | ballen: yeah but FreeBSD is difficult for those who are used to something else
everything is hard when you don't invest the time if you learn it, it becomes easy | [19:13] |
| Wraithan | :) | [19:14] |
| ballen | hah, yeah buy X is difficult for those who are used to something else | [19:14] |
| Wraithan | Arch is very easy! | [19:14] |
| ballen | but* | [19:14] |

| up_the_irons | ballen: yeah | [19:14] |
| Wraithan | http://www.lessthanthreesoftware.com
now running on ARP | [19:14] |
| up_the_irons | ease of use is relative to the user, let's just put it that way
so, again, it comes down to taste | [19:15] |
| ballen | true | [19:15] |
| Wraithan | up_the_irons: put in the request for the extra cores :)
I find windows hard to use. | [19:15] |
| ballen | meh whatever, use whatever the hell ya want | [19:15] |
| Wraithan | Same with OSX | [19:15] |
| ballen | is my opinion | [19:15] |
| Wraithan | my hands don't flow!

| Wraithan | up_the_irons: xmonad | [19:17] |

| william``` | Wraithan: sometimes, i'm also learning Haskell, but i write Ruby for a living | [19:17] |
| mike-burns | Me toO! | [19:17] |
| william``` | dons is a major dude | [19:17] |
| fink | omg we have so much in common! | [19:17] |
| mike-burns | omg do you like bsd too?! | [19:18] |
| Wraithan | no. | [19:18] |

| Wraithan | er
yes <.< >.> | [19:18] |
| mike-burns | Ha. | [19:18] |
| fink | like whatever! | [19:18] |
| Wraithan | william```: Ah, I am mostly a python coder (pays the bills) but lisp and haskell in my freetime | [19:19] |
| william``` | nice :-)
i work on a large rails application for a living | [19:19] |
| Wraithan | Though truth be told I like python quite a bit | [19:19] |
| up_the_irons | lol, this is making my browser barf:
host www.lessthanthreesoftware.com www.lessthanthreesoftware.com has address 206.125.170.2 | [19:19] |
| william``` | 160 models :| | [19:19] |
| up_the_irons | www.lessthanthreesoftware.com has address 74.204.234.252 | [19:19] |
| Wraithan | william```: large django app | [19:19] |
| up_the_irons | changing IP | [19:19] |
| mike-burns | I've realized that Haskell is tricky because of the non-code parts of it are foreign. Things like documentation, finding a job, socializing events, and so on are very different than what the industry is used to. | [19:19] |
| fink | Wraithan: me = python fanboy | [19:20] |
| Wraithan | up_the_irons: linode is doing that, I shut off their DNS stuff but it is being bothersome | [19:20] |
| up_the_irons | Wraithan: roger | [19:20] |
| william``` | yeah, i don't use linode's dns offerings | [19:20] |
| Wraithan | I used to. | [19:20] |
| william``` | i take it they're bizarre? | [19:20] |
| mike-burns | I work on many large Rails applications for a living. | [19:21] |
| Wraithan | Nah, it was pretty straightforward, but I deleted my entries but they are still being propagated from there | [19:21] |
| ballen | up_the_irons: you should peer with Comcast | [19:21] |
| up_the_irons | ballen: don't i wish | [19:21] |
| Wraithan | One large Django app, many small django apps for me | [19:21] |
| william``` | mike-burns: did your predecessors understand how indexes in a rdbms are supposed to work? :-/ | [19:21] |
| ballen | have to hit level3 and mzima before Arp | [19:21] |
| up_the_irons | ballen: i'm ready and willing, but they'll give me the finger ;) | [19:21] |
| mike-burns | william```: Absolutely. | [19:21] |
| william``` | i envy you :( | [19:22] |
| up_the_irons | ballen: i will probably get level3 direct next year | [19:22] |
| ballen | whys that, seems like generally everyone should be willing to peer | [19:22] |
| up_the_irons | ballen: but it's not like the mzima hop really adds much | [19:22] |
| mike-burns | william```: We don't believe that indexes are an optimization; we believe that it is a bug to leave them out. | [19:22] |
| ballen | also peer with Es.net :-) | [19:22] |
| william``` | mike-burns: i found a query that would occasionally run via a cronjob on our site that did a table scan of 26 million rows
took 500-600 seconds to run | [19:22] |
| mike-burns | Ha. | [19:23] |
| up_the_irons | ballen: ah, no. there's a lot of politics to it. the smaller networks will peer, yes, no problem. but larger ones want minimum traffic, ratio requirements, etc... | [19:23] |
| ballen | hmm | [19:23] |
| up_the_irons | ballen: es.net i think is pay to play | [19:23] |
| ballen | hmm, shouldn't be all their main goal is to serve the DOE labs | [19:23] |
| up_the_irons | ballen: but i thought one of _my_ peers already peered with them, so it was like one more hop | [19:23] |
| ballen | yea es.net to you is quite fast
es.net to comcast is slow which is annoying as hell anyone ever play with GridFTP | [19:24] |
| up_the_irons | ballen: i might have been thinking of someone else. es.net appears to have open peering now that i looked it up, but they are not on any exchange that i'm on | [19:25] |
| ballen | yea Es.net should be fairly cool, if you ever need to get a hold of anyone there let me know | [19:26] |
| up_the_irons | ah, PacificWave was pay to play, and they have ESnet as a member
ballen: sure, i will, thanks | [19:26] |

heh er nvm www still has 2 wtf | [19:29] |
| up_the_irons | dns caching is a bitch | [19:31] |
| william``` | wild | [19:31] |
| up_the_irons | actually, caches in general are a bitch
7:30 already.. time to go home | [19:31] |
| ballen | anyone in Cisco world know when the 2960S switches will be available? | [19:31] |
| mike-burns | "There are only two hard problems in Computer Science: cache invalidation and naming things." - Phil Karlton | [19:32] |
| william``` | and random number generation
you don't want to be in a state of sin, do you? :) | [19:33] |
| mike-burns | Is sin a state between solid and liquid? | [19:33] |

:) | [19:34] |
| mike-burns | Ha, well played. | [19:34] |
| william``` | speaking of that, i have this thing called an "entropy key"
which keeps your entropy pool on linux systems maxed out using an overloaded transistor or something | [19:37] |
| mike-burns | Sounds fancy. | [19:37] |
| william``` | i should get that freebsd driver book and write a driver for it :)
it substantially decreases ssh/ssl handshake times | [19:37] |
| mike-burns | I had no idea. Faster things are nice; you should do that. | [19:38] |
| william``` | when i have some free time :( | [19:38] |
| Wraithan | william```: what is free time? | [19:41] |
| william``` | what i have too much stuff slated for ;) | [19:41] |
| Wraithan | If you have stuff slated to used it, is it still time that is free? | [19:42] |
| william``` | hmm, good point
i guess it's more "personal time" than anything | [19:42] |
| Wraithan | lol
http://www.entropykey.co.uk/ neat idea | [19:42] |
| william``` | yeah, it's cool
boot off an ubuntu live cd, install that, dd if=/dev/random of=/dev/sda then the system doesn't have to fill its own entropy pool with psuedorandom data so overwriting a disk with random data takes hours, not days :P | [19:43] |
| Wraithan | I never really do that
I can't recall ever selling a harddrive | [19:44] |

| Wraithan | Ah, yeah, I don't do that | [19:45] |

| jdoe | ballen: I have. | [20:32] |
| ballen | assume you have to recompile all ports? | [20:32] |
| jdoe | yep. | [20:32] |
| ballen | thats a pain in the balls | [20:32] |
| jdoe | oh it gets worse.
even if you follow the instructions portupgrade may blow up in the middle of upgrading everything because ruby is a pile of shit. so make sure you get a list of what it wants to upgrade ;) that said, binary update for core software + portupgrade + manually upgrading the shit portupgrade blew up before rebuilding was successful for me. it took way longer than I was expecting, but it worked out in the ned. end. | [20:33] |
| ballen | yea sounds easier to just blow away the install and rebuild everything | [20:34] |
| jdoe | depends on what you've got installed, I guess.
and how good your logbook is ;) | [20:35] |
| ballen | yea | [20:35] |
| jdoe | I keep backups of configs etc., but unless I'm redoing things I prefer to upgrade in place. | [20:36] |
| ballen | yea
ugh... why is GridFTP such a bitch to install | [20:36] |
| jdoe | no clue, first I've heard of it. | [20:37] |
| ballen | part of Globus | [20:38] |
| jdoe | first I've heard of that too ;) | [20:38] |
| ballen | heh | [20:38] |
| jdoe | I've done some HPC stuff before but it's always been same-site. | [20:39] |
| ballen | yea | [20:39] |
| jdoe | which, as I'm sure you're aware, is way more pleasant. | [20:39] |
| ballen | GridFTP is kind of going towards being the standard of moving large datasets around across WAN | [20:39] |
| jdoe | ugh, another encryption standard...
... and parallel streams from the same host? If your network actually benefits from that, you need to fix your network... ... oh, GSI is just TLS. ballen: how well does it tolerate high latency? | [20:42] |
| ballen | not sure yet
trying to get it installed to test it out | [20:43] |
| jdoe | what are you using it for, if I may pry? | [20:46] |
| *** | heavysixer has quit IRC (Quit: heavysixer) | [20:46] |
| ballen | going to see if it helps with moving datasets ranging from 500MB-4GB from New Mexico to bay area

| *** | nukeAFK has joined #arpnetworks | [20:48] |
| fink | jdoe: no portmaster love? | [20:50] |
| jdoe | fink: I dunno. I've been using portupgrade since it got pushed out there as the GREAT NEW THING TO USE. I never thought about switching. | [20:54] |
| fink | jdoe: i used to use it; i've had much better luck with portmaster
minimal deps too | [20:54] |
| jdoe | ballen: if you're just copying shit from point A to point B, try openssh with the performance patch.
ballen: http://www.psc.edu/networking/projects/hpn-ssh/ | [20:55] |
| ballen | yea I know | [20:55] |
| jdoe | no love? That worked well for me.
fink: it still depends on ruby doesn't it? | [20:55] |
| ballen | getting collaborators to patch openssh is somewhat difficult | [20:56] |
| fink | no
jdoe: http://forums.freebsd.org/showthread.php?t=6078 | [20:56] |
| *** | nukeAFK has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 240 seconds) | [20:57] |
| fink | fink likes portmaster ;) | [20:57] |
| jdoe | ballen: more difficult then getting them to install this though? :) | [21:01] |
| ballen | hah, as its looking right now, no
any idea if the server has to be patched or just the client? | [21:01] |
| jdoe | fink: that's cool. For critical things like package management I prefer tried and true though :P
ballen: both I think. ballen: it's been a while since I looked at the patch, but iirc it adds/modifies ciphers (so you could send stuff plaintext if you *really* wanted to, for example) as well as adjusts buffering. | [21:02] |
| ballen | yea
supposedly it allows SSH to make use of multi-cores | [21:03] |
| jdoe | still, it's not like they need to REPLACE anything to use it or anything crazy like that.
just run it as a second instance on 2222 or something and go nuts. | [21:04] |
| ballen | yea fun thing is to push anything like this I'll have to write a whole case study and run it through my management, who while have to lend their support to even get the slightest chance of this happening
which isn't so bad | [21:05] |
| jdoe | yeah, but you're going to have to do that with whichever you pick, presumably. | [21:05] |
| ballen | yea
we're currently using ol' fashioned rsync not even over ssh | [21:05] |
| CESSMASTER | portmaster is great
in particular, it isn't written in ruby | [21:07] |
| jdoe | ballen: ... not secret data, huh :P | [21:08] |
| ballen | nah | [21:08] |
| jdoe | CESSMASTER: believe me, I appreciate that. I'm just wary of change. | [21:08] |
| ballen | oh well it'll be easy enough to test out OpenSSH with and without patch using Arpnetworks, roughly close enough and roughly same bandwidth | [21:09] |
| CESSMASTER | then you should be wary of a program written in ruby, wait til that mickey mouse club changes some stupid shit | [21:09] |
| ballen | aren't we just a bunch of ruby haters | [21:09] |
| jdoe | CESSMASTER: in fairness, ruby is relatively stable, you want to bitch about rails ;)
the core language is more stable than python, at least :P wonder how long it'll be before that bites *buntu in the ass. | [21:09] |
| ballen | suppose this means I'll need to swap out dropbear on my vps now | [21:12] |
| jdoe | well no, you could just build openssh in your homedir or something, run it on some other port...
... but really? dropbear on a vps? | [21:13] |
| ballen | hah yea | [21:14] |
| jdoe | weird. | [21:14] |
| ballen | look at how much memory it uses compared to openssh
at one point was trying to squeeze every ounce of memory however you should know the $PATH is hard coded in drop bear and no it doesn't give a shit what your .profile does | [21:14] |
| jdoe | memory's never really been that big a concern for me on a vps.
256MB goes a very long way. | [21:16] |
| ballen | run a few Rails projects, a postfix + postgrey + dovecot mail setup and it gets used up quick
however after moving to Sinatra its really not a big deal | [21:16] |
| CRowen | vps server?
stock? | [21:17] |
| ballen | ? | [21:18] |
| jdoe | ballen: I blame rails. I've done the same (minus postgrey, plus spamassassin), just nginx+php instead of rails. Did very well under load. | [21:19] |
| ballen | yea
Sinatra + Redis backend rocks the socks as it were at one point has postfix + dspam + dovecot + PostgreSQL the first three were using SQL based data for users, etc | [21:19] |
| *** | Nat_UB has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 248 seconds) | [21:20] |
| ballen | waaay overkill | [21:20] |
| jdoe | yeah
dspam is great if you're memory conscious though. | [21:21] |
| CRowen | vps is stock? | [21:21] |
| ballen | my vps?
yea postgrey is better | [21:21] |
| jdoe | ballen: I think he's asking if he can order
ballen: or if they're still done. | [21:21] |
| ballen | ah | [21:21] |
| jdoe | total disagree on postgrey though, btw | [21:22] |
| ballen | whys that
catches most spam | [21:22] |
| jdoe | I hate greylisting.
it's annoying, it gets in the way, and it still lets a lot of spam through | [21:22] |
| ballen | with almost no overhead | [21:22] |
| *** | nukeAFK has joined #arpnetworks | [21:22] |
| jdoe | yeah, that's why I nolist | [21:22] |
| ballen | yea I used that and what ever one list was | [21:22] |
| jdoe | zero overhead, zero delay, catches about as much as greylisting did for me. | [21:22] |
| ballen | yea, just migrated to Google Apps | [21:23] |
| jdoe | yeah...
that's a pretty compelling argument | [21:23] |
| ballen | don't have to worry a damn bit about it now | [21:23] |
| jdoe | haha.
I just don't like google having my mail. | [21:23] |
| ballen | true | [21:23] |
| jdoe | it knows enough about me already :P | [21:23] |
| ballen | also true | [21:23] |
| CRowen | I want a vps server, as I can pay for it | [21:24] |
| ballen | then by all means place an order
jdoe: http://blogoscoped.com/archive/2007-09-17-n72.html that'll make your confidence in google go down even more albiet its fiction | [21:24] |
| CRowen | and how to order, the site says it is just stock vps? | [21:25] |
| jdoe | not a big Doctorow fan, but I've read that before. Yeah, I know.
haha. | [21:25] |
| fink | jdoe: you use dspam on freebsd? | [21:26] |

also, it has more than enough ram for a couple perl procs. | [21:27] |

fun fiction for the most part | [21:29] |
| jdoe | fink: nolisting uses even less ;) | [21:29] |
| ballen | jdoe what if your list goes bat shit or gets hacked though ;-) | [21:30] |
| CESSMASTER | his fiction is unremarkable dreck, nothing too wrong with it
his blogs and other shit make me hope a bus hits him | [21:30] |
| ballen | ahahah | [21:30] |
| jdoe | ballen: no no | [21:30] |
| ballen | now thats not nice | [21:30] |
| jdoe | ballen: nolisting isn't a list. | [21:30] |
| CESSMASTER | boingboing is the worst | [21:31] |
| ballen | ah
thats clever | [21:31] |
| jdoe | nolisting is when you point your primary mx at an ip address that can never receive email. Just pick an IP you own, reject all traffic to port 25 | [21:31] |
| CRowen | ballen, thanks for help =) | [21:31] |
| jdoe | very.
for anything that doesn't implement retries, you get them... so you get most of the benefit of greylisting at zero cost | [21:31] |
| ballen | CRowen no prob, sorry theres nothing available at the moment. If you're in here when up_the_irons is around he can give you an idea of an ETA
jdoe, I actually really like that any idea if its more effective than greylisting | [21:32] |
| CESSMASTER | the bbc world news' asia business correspondent is so horribly upbeat | [21:33] |
| jdoe | it's not going to be better, the best you can hope for is as-good-as, because they both target the same kind of bot, right?
... but I mean, I tried it myself for a while. and I was getting more-or-less equal numbers. ... and having my email actually come through immediately was a real perk. | [21:34] |
| ballen | hmm
indeed just wondering if spammers started figuring out the greylisting trick and started to account for it | [21:34] |
| jdoe | sure, some do. | [21:35] |
| ballen | anyone have hands on experience with EMC CX-120 or Dell's Equalogic arrays ? | [21:36] |
| jdoe | nein. | [21:36] |
| ballen | need some central storage at work, not sold on the Dell stuff yet but its cheaper
that and iSCSI over FiberChannel Dell only supports iSCSI well I'm sold on the openssh patch, on my crappy comcast upload, 249KB/s to 346KB/s | [21:37] |
| nesta | what ssh patch? | [21:49] |
| ballen | http://www.psc.edu/networking/projects/hpn-ssh/ | [21:50] |
| nesta | cool thanks | [21:50] |
| ballen | np
I'll let you all know what its capable of doing on a real connection after tomorrow | [21:50] |
| so the real question is why in the hell haven't these patches made it back into OpenSSH proper | [21:57] | |
| CESSMASTER | openbsd people | [21:58] |
| ballen | ah good point, Theo | [21:58] |
| jdoe | http://marc.info/?l=openssh-unix-dev&m=114334841829392&w=2 | [22:12] |
| ballen | indeed
so I could see where parallel transfers would benefit networks that have mutli-paths to the destination | [22:14] |
| jdoe | I was thinking lan not wan | [22:17] |
| ballen | ah yea
LAN isn't really an issue only issue is CPU overhead of encryption with scp/sftp | [22:19] |
| jdoe | if you don't care, you can disable it with that patch
there's a null cipher you can specify. | [22:21] |
| ballen | yea, or the multi-core path
patch | [22:21] |
| jdoe | well, yeah, but if you don't need to encrypt the data, why bother? | [22:22] |
| ballen | most of my LAN data transferring if NFSv4 though
is* | [22:22] |
