[09:52] why? [09:52] re: jail, presumably rsync should be enough? [11:24] from bind to what? [11:25] cedwards: nsd is your best bet [12:51] *** schmir has joined #arpnetworks [12:55] *** schmir has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 265 seconds) [14:06] *** schmir has joined #arpnetworks [14:15] *** schmir has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 265 seconds) [14:24] *** AndrewBC has quit IRC (Quit: Bye!)

[15:54] *** visinin has quit IRC (Quit: leaving) [16:55] up_the_irons: does nsd handle zone files the same way BIND does? [16:55] i've had powerdns recommended [16:55] cedwards: yes, same format (it's an RFC somewhere) [16:56] I learned on BIND, so it makes sense to me, but I had a discussion with a tiny fan the other day and he pointed out some things I never considered.. [16:56] (particular for our recursives) [16:56] same with me cedwards - i think most people who learn dns properly start on bind [16:56] for one, maintaining forward and reverse in seperate files. doesn't make sense when the information is technically already in one file [16:57] my biggest issue with bind is the stupid /24 stuff for reversing [16:57] i know you can do it differently but it's a pain in the ass [16:57] we got a new /16 last year, i generated individual /24 reverse files for it :/ [16:58] plus i prefer seperate forward/reverse files [16:58] you may want different data in each [16:58] forward and reverse should usually match, but I suppose there are exceptions. [16:59] indeed [16:59] they don't *have* to match [16:59] cedwards: i just can't stand making certain records in tinydns. try srv records. you need a generator [17:00] or txt records, or spf [17:00] basically anything here: http://www.anders.com/projects/sysadmin/djbdnsRecordBuilder [17:00] it's f'in ridiculous [17:00] that's.. strange. [17:01] ugh, djb [17:01] * bob^^ isn't a fan [17:01] cedwards: here's an actual SRV record for an example domain: [17:01] :_sip._tcp.example.com:33:\000\012\000\144\023\304\003pbx\007example\003com\000:86400 [17:01] that's what you actually put in your zone file for tinydns [17:01] THAT'S F'IN RIDICULOUS [17:01] messed up :/ [17:02] therefore, no tinydns for me [17:02] at the moment i still use bind purely because i'm familiar with it and i know it's stable [17:02] for some reason i trust it [17:02] plus of course, having read DNS and BIND cover to cover several times, it just fits ;/ [17:03] yeah i read the 2nd edition cover to cover [17:03] 4th here :) [17:03] just got 5th in work, doesn't seem to be much different - just more on DNSSec, as you'd expect i guess [17:03] excellent book though [17:04] As I understand it, nsd/unbound is to bind as postfix is to sendmail? [17:04] cedwards: i've heard that analogy before, yes [17:10] how is spamd working for you? [17:28] I've got really good filtering just via postfix at this point, but I do like the idea of tying it into the firewall. [17:32] cedwards: i haven't got to the spamd part yet; postfix and dovecot are done and golden. I also made a lot of postfix tweaks wrt spam and so far, it has worked out well on 2 test accounts that get nothing but spam [17:32] after i migrate some real users, then i want to play with spamd [17:34] some say my smtpd_*_restrictions are too tight, but I've not had problems and I get zero spam. [17:34] cedwards: nice [17:34] care to share? [17:34] I implemented it at work and I've actually had users jokingly complain about the lack of spam. [17:34] LOL [17:35] http://pastebin.com/sCkXCYN7 [17:36] I like filtering at every step of the SMTP handshake/communication. I filter a bunch just at HELO [17:36] also use postgrey, zen.spamhaus.org and spf policy. [17:37] cedwards: nice, this looks similar to mine, but i don't have postgrey or spf policy stuff going yet [17:37] i _highly_ recommend postgrey [17:38] cedwards: with spamd, postgrey-like functionality is already provided [17:39] I was just reading about spamd and that's what it sounded like.. [17:39] yeah [17:42] up_the_irons: how difficult is it to mount a different image on one of my hosts? [17:42] up_the_irons: I'm interested in trying something else on my second box. [17:42] cedwards: define "mount a different image" [17:44] up_the_irons: mount/attach a different .iso to the drive so I could reinstall something different over VNC. [17:45] cedwards: if it is within the same "class" (Linux vs. FreeBSD vs. OpenBSD), it is easy. If you want to switch class, then I need to also change VM parameters. [17:47] I was just thinking of switching one of my boxes from FreeBSD to a Linux distro (yet undecided). [17:48] roger [17:52] cedwards: Resist the urge, fight the temptations :) [17:52] Nat_UB: I know I should. Sometimes I just get restless. [17:54] Hehehehehe....enjoy [18:05] *** ziyourenxiang has joined #arpnetworks [18:06] hmm. trying to install spamd in a jail. how do I allow the additional mount in fstab?

Just say no to greylisting! [18:52] jdoe: heh, why [18:52] delay, dropped mail from smtp farms. [18:53] i figure you could white list those [18:53] you can, but you have to know about them first. [18:53] and I like my email relatively maintenance free, personally. [18:53] his smtp*_*_restrictions are too tight too. [18:53] he'll lose mail if he ever has a dns failure [18:53] among other things. [18:54] mail is always maintenance [18:55] the script presented here: http://home.xnet.com/~ansible/openbsd_spamd_conf.html [18:55] makes a pretty good whitelist based off spf records [18:56] usually not "scouring mail logs looking for rejected mail that shouldn't be" maintenance [18:56] using spf is probably fine as long as the other side actually publishes the, [18:56] them [18:56] from what I hear gmail requires more maintenance than just that. [18:56] and facebook is a PITA [18:56] as are some airlines, I think a couple are listed in that list, I've seen it before. [18:57] ymmv, but still. I'd rather pass spam in than accidentally lose a legit mail [18:57] given i've had to scour quarantined messages for possible false positives, it's all just maintenance in the end [18:57] just depends where you're looking [18:58] I don't. I think I sent you my config, I reject on spamhaus/spamcop or on an obscene spamd score at session time. [18:58] everything else gets passed through (but tagged in headers) regardless of score. Users can sort as they please. [18:59] the greylisting thing is just personal preference. My only two legit beefs with his config are rfc-ignorant and the dns tests. [18:59] jdoe: oh yeah, you sent me stuff, but i think you forgot to attach the actual config; sorry i didn't have time to reply yet [19:00] ... seriously? [19:00] that's embarrassing. [19:00] haha. [19:00] i forget attachments all the time... [19:00] ;) [19:01] yeah. I had something setup to try to prevent that though, scanning email for things that implied there might be one. [19:01] ... guess that was on the old system :( [19:02] the dns checks (like no reverse dns entry) tend to block a lot of spam though, i kinda like that one [19:04] well, sent again, with the attachment this time :P [19:04] tnx! [19:04] I think I actually do use dns checks, just ... not so many. [19:05] i c [19:09] you could also try something I did a while ago. Basically I wrote a postfix policy server that I could call from the *_restrictions blocks [19:09] it would check against a massive list of rbls and if it found any hits I could then greylist that host. [19:09] ah [19:09] it had some p0f integration, but presumably you could do that with pf already if you really wanted. [19:09] * jdoe is/was a bit of an email nerd. [19:11] cool [19:16] if you're using postfix you may want to give http://www.postfix.org/postscreen.8.html a look too. It's... let's call it "volatile" right now, but it looks like it'll be a nice new toy. [19:17] although personally what I want is some way to glue rbls and (openbsd's) spamd together. [19:17] ... I'll shut up about mail now ;) [21:09] *** heavysixer has joined #arpnetworks [21:09] *** ChanServ sets mode: +o heavysixer [21:47] *** ziyourenxiang has quit IRC (Quit: ziyourenxiang) [23:05] *** homosaur has quit IRC (Quit: pocketful of goat cheese, ready to party) [23:07] *** Elem[e]nt has quit IRC (Read error: No route to host) [23:26] *** homosaur has joined #arpnetworks [23:27] what would you guys suggest for lightweight ftp? i only need to use it myself and maybe for users, no public access required [23:41] *** homosaur has quit IRC (Quit: pocketful of goat cheese, ready to party) [23:54] *** Ehtyar has quit IRC (Remote host closed the connection) [23:54] *** Ehtyar has joined #arpnetworks
