[01:36] *** streak has quit IRC (Quit: Bye!) [03:35] *** pcn has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 244 seconds) [07:40] i just got the oddest, spam email ever [07:40] dont normally boter with them, but it had a .zip [07:40] inside the zip is an sqlite flat, with a HUGE list of user/pass and IP addresses [07:44] most of the IPs look like VPS/Dedi space on Amazon/OVH/Demonware etc [07:47] and alas, the senders email isn't valid [07:59] *** [FBI] has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 265 seconds) [07:59] *** [FBI] starts logging #arpnetworks at Wed Oct 07 07:59:24 2015 [07:59] *** [FBI] has joined #arpnetworks [08:01] meh, it's only the FBI. It's not like the NSA is watching. [08:03] haha [08:04] my bot is called FBI too :o [08:04] tbh though, anyone who has downloaded tor is already on the NSA watchlist [08:26] aight, emailed some of these hosting companies about this email i got and one has already got back to me [08:26] sounding VERY worried [08:27] * grody bets it's a skiddies shell hunting expo [08:55] *** TandyUK has joined #arpnetworks [08:56] *** TandyUK has left [09:19] The channel bot at work is "NSA_Monitoring_Station" :D [09:19] (It replaced "FBI_Surveillance_Van") [09:22] heh, NSA Monitoring Station used to be the SSID on my open guest AP [10:24] *** gooddesignusa has joined #arpnetworks [10:25] Hey everyone, I was thinking of getting 2 VPS's from arpnetworks and was curious if bandwidth is counted when they talk to each other since they are on the same network? [10:27] gooddesignusa: Nope that would not count against bandwidth. [10:27] Bandwidth is measured at the upstream router, so only traffic to/from the Internet would count. [10:28] *** tabthorpe has quit IRC (Quit: leaving) [10:29] *** tabthorpe has joined #arpnetworks [10:30] great, thanks for the quick response [10:30] I was thinking of settig up a VPS to run pfsense [11:51] *** gooddesignusa has quit IRC (Quit: Leaving.) [12:49] *** brycec has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 240 seconds) [12:49] *** mjp__ has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 240 seconds) [12:49] *** mjp_ has joined #arpnetworks [12:52] *** brycec has joined #arpnetworks [13:51] grody: i tihnk everyone is on the NSA watchlist [13:51] they watch everyone :) [13:54] Only people within four hops of a suspected terrorist, as I understand it. [14:31] ping/traceroute hops? [14:31] Because that would be a pretty wide net ;p [14:33] rather NSA watching everyone even if you want to or not. [14:33] :) [16:21] are there any internal networking issues that you all know of? [16:22] I seem to be getting lots of failures between 2 servers (comm failures) between nginx (proxy) and uwsgi (app server) [16:22] and I've never really had this happen in the past [16:29] comms failures? [16:35] Sorry, like dropped connections [16:35] It could be app issues but it's across many apps so it's odd [16:51] you could put a ticket in [16:51] but not aware of anything breaking connections or such [17:04] how do folks deal with rotating backups? For instance, I hav a cronjob that backs up all databases off to a remote server. It does this every week. I usually dont care to keep backups older than 15 weeks if I have not needed them for so long - chances are I am never going to need them. At this point I find myself deleting old backups manually every couple of months. [17:06] mnathani_, I use this https://bitbucket.org/petersanchez/webutils/src/22c1314f5206cc309e191007d84f86199bf9f278/webutils/cleanup/?at=default [17:07] basically I create db backups every 4 hours (usually), store them on local disk and on S3.. I run that cronjob nightly to remove backups (locally and in S3) older than 7 days.. [17:07] it's not a gorgeous piece of code but I wrote it years ago and it still works just fine so... *shrugs* [17:07] and I use tarsnap for system backups.. that manages everything for me [17:27] *** s10g has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 268 seconds) [17:27] *** s10g has joined #arpnetworks [18:28] *** gooddesignusa has joined #arpnetworks [18:56] thanks pjs, had heard about tarsnap before but looking into it now again. The deduplication feature sounds really handy [18:58] what benefit would someone get by running pfsense in a VPS? [18:59] I thought it was primarily a firewall [19:11] *** dj_goku has quit IRC (Remote host closed the connection) [20:03] *** gooddesignusa has quit IRC (Quit: Leaving.) [20:23] *** dj_goku has joined #arpnetworks [21:44] when you tarsnap say a directory with a bunch of files in it, can you retrieve say a single file or a bunch of files, or do you have to retreive the entire tarball ?
