| whitefang | I did for a while a long time ago, and then I decided that not running it would be better for me than self-harm to cope.
;) | [06:41] |
| jk, it wasn't quite that bad, why do you ask though? | [06:48] | |
| merky | mm
cos i've had shitty performance under vmware with openbsd i find openbsd nice and clean linux makes me feel dirty and freebsd was a hodge podge of this and that netbsd seemd kind of nice i've been running openbsd on routers for a wihle | [06:54] |
| whitefang | x86? | [07:02] |
| merky | yeh | [07:02] |
| whitefang | linux makes me feel dirty too | [07:02] |
| merky | heh
i still use it | [07:02] |
| whitefang | I haven't had any issues with FreeBSD, I've found it more usable than OpenBSD
stuff works more never touched netbsd | [07:02] |
| merky | hmm, threading is broken on openbsd | [07:02] |
| whitefang | all kinds of stuff is broken on openbsd which is why I stopped using it. | [07:03] |
| merky | and the kernel doesn't do smp
really, like what? | [07:03] |
| whitefang | I didn't touch NetBSD because I don't like *cough* depricated *cough* software. | [07:03] |
| merky | i must admit i've never done anything that complicated on it
i got corrupted data on a hard-disk in 2001 with freebsd it kind of put me off it's really scary when your data starts getting corrupted it's the only time i've had problems of that kind that was IDE with UDMA66 iirc... i think things have advanced a bit since then and like one of those power hungry athlons like back when AMD was trumping intel with power usage ahh, looks liek athlon thunderbird 1.4 ghz i think | [07:03] |
| whitefang | the biggest thing that is broken about OpenBSD is the community. | [07:08] |
| merky | oh heh | [07:08] |
| whitefang | one of the most unfriendly communities I've ever dealt with. | [07:08] |
| merky | i'm wondering what's happening with the tcp receive buffer scaling
it's kind of broken in openbsd-current right now they're doing a tcp window size of 16k and scaling it up as data is received but it only works if tcp timestamps are supported by the other end | [07:08] |
| whitefang | are you running -current in a production environment? | [07:09] |
| *** | lucky has quit IRC (Remote host closed the connection) | [07:09] |
| merky | if they're not you're limited to 16k window size
yeah not following current but using it i've never really had problems with openbsd-current i've had more issues with linux kernels that aren't prerelease like there was some kind of timestamp issue or something ages ago which started giving connectivity issues disabling tcp timestamps fixed it theni got a bit paranoid about tcp timestamps so i had them off which is how i discovered this issue with openbsd thing is 16k window size with 100 msec latency is 160k/sec whichi s slow. also they're limiting their window sizes to 256k without having it tunable by sysctl which means if you have say 250 msec latency (i'm in new zealand... that's about the minimum latency to europe) you're limited to 1mb/sec. and often latency gets higher than that but to increase you have to modify the source code and compile your own kernel. and then it's not supported. but hell, i don't know how much support you really have with openbsd anyway. there are some cool things though, like relayd. which i think is in freebsd too which can do nice simple clean layer 7 load balancing | [07:09] |
| whitefang | merky: FreeBSD has relayd in /usr/ports/net/relayd ;) | [07:17] |
| merky | heh
u played with it? | [07:17] |
| whitefang | never | [07:17] |
| merky | ahh ok
i was experimenting with using it to do transparent tcp proxying | [07:17] |
| whitefang | I mostly use my FreeBSD machine as an MTA, IMAP server, and light load web/ftp server. | [07:18] |
| merky | hmm
openbsd is capable of all of those tasks :/ you use linux as well? | [07:18] |
| whitefang | documentation is inferior to freebsds imho
I use linux on my router. otherwise I avoid it. I'm OK with the RTFM attitude when the manual doesn't fail :P | [07:19] |
| merky | it's amusing how all the dsl routers run linux now
yaeh i'm appalled by linux documentation | [07:20] |
| whitefang | but I've never seen something that comes ever close to the freebsd handbook as far as quality
and just how much it covers. | [07:21] |
| merky | like reasonably "normal" things like doing traffic shapign
where's the documentation? there's like howto's and guides i never really found real normal documentation i always thought it was a lot saner under openbsd hmm i wonder what freebsd handbook says about traffic shaping apaprently freebsd has 3 firewall packages one of them being the openbsd one :) | [07:21] |
| whitefang | yeah | [07:25] |
| merky | oh it has CARP too
and openbgpd | [07:27] |
| whitefang | tbh I'm really not a very advanced user...
which may or may not be why I didn't take to OpenBSD. | [07:29] |
| merky | heh | [07:29] |
| whitefang | until now I hadn't even heard of CARP :P | [07:30] |
| coobra | any idea when up_the_irons is around ? | [07:30] |
| merky | i'm only advanced with networky type things i suppose
gah i should be asleep | [07:30] |
| whitefang | well, aside from programming, what else is there to be advanced with ^_^ | [07:32] |
| merky | hmm
web site design? | [07:32] |
| whitefang | web design counts? | [07:32] |
| merky | sure why not | [07:32] |
| whitefang | if web design counts then so do powerpoint presentations ;) | [07:33] |
| merky | my web design stretches as far as paragraphs and tables.
ok bedtime | [07:33] |
| *** | merky has left | [07:34] |
| whitefang | I don't mean that to belittle web designers, but web design and system/network administration are two completely different things.
now I feel bad, I think the comparison to powerpoint presentations may have been a little harsh ^_^ | [07:38] |

| jpalmer | correction: GOOD web design. | [11:54] |
| mike-burns | Sure, and GOOD sysadmining is also hard.
GOOD anything is hard. | [11:55] |
| jpalmer | bad web design is pretty damned easy. as is bad sysadmin ;)
mike-burns: exactly. we seem to be on the same page. :P | [11:55] |
