***: Squillis has joined #arpnetworks Squillis: hello
should i be able to relay mail through my vps? ant: Squillis: yes Squillis: ok. i'll keep digging ant: Squillis: i.e. there are no packet filters for typical smtp ports Squillis: that's what i was asking
thanks
oh, cox
Note: SMTP is only permitted outbound to Cox-provided SMTP servers.
i should have guessed mike-burns: Rough. Squillis: quality service from a quality company ant: Squillis: do they allow port 587 (submission)? Squillis: it's not explicitly blocked
i was going to use another port
if postfix allows that
i figure it does ant: it does. but submission is actually meant to be used by smtp clients connecting to a relay
instead of 25 Squillis: ah. i didn't know that mercutio: yeah it's pretty lonng standing
and postfix will automatically support it these days
you can adjust stuff in master.cf if you want some alternate port or such ant: i actually support providers that block port 25 outgoing, because every legit user should use 587 brycec: I support residential ISPs blocking 25 because of spam botnets ant: that's what i wanted to express ;) brycec: (It's usually paired with requiring authenticated SMTP to the ISP's own relays)
heh mercutio: Now people spam through Gmail. mnathani: mercutio: still need someone to test the new boot menu? mercutio: yeh sure
mnathani: shutdown and boot your VM and you should get it dne: what's new in the new boot menu? mercutio: dns: it always shows boot options
so you don't need to press f12 ***: nathani has quit IRC (Quit: WeeChat 1.3) mnathani: shutting down now mercutio: cool dne: aha, I don't shut down very often :) mercutio: neither do i
but i think this is a good improvement none the less mnathani: 12 second timout
could probably use like 15 mercutio: mnathani: you can press enter or select boot option to go quicker
ahh dne: had to shut down the other day though - for some reason the freebsd bootloader didn't find the disk when I rebooted for an upgrade (never happened before) mercutio: dne: 10.3?
there seems to be an issue with 10.3 dne: yup, second reboot during freebsd-update (after userland is upgraded) mercutio: hmm
that's not good
i had issues with iso booting dne: first reboot (only kernel upgraded) was fine mercutio: so kernel didn't boot?
hmm
there was an issue with 10.1 dne: i think it got stuck at the 1st stage bootloader mercutio: that could be the same issue that 10.3 boot iso is having
how did you work around it? dne: after shutdown it booted fine again mercutio: oh dne: from the panel mercutio: that could be the "warm boot" kvm bug dne: aha mercutio: https://bugs.launchpad.net/qemu/+bug/1329956
i found when trying to figure out why 10.3 iso isn't booting dne: weird
this never happened before though, that I can remember mercutio: the 10.1 bug was different
after install it didn't umount the file system cleanly
and so you'd need to do a fsck
which is just wrong, but doesn't actually stop things working dne: ah yes, but that was a freebsd bug
https://www.freebsd.org/security/advisories/FreeBSD-EN-15:05.ufs.asc ?
that shouldn't occur on a fresh install from the iso though up_the_irons: I wonder what's a good web-based IRC gateway... ***: [sean] has left brycec: glowing-bear.org :) (technically a web-weechat relay gateway) up_the_irons: lol
I was thinking more for people who don't use IRC at all. So they could still join this channel from our website or something. Not long term, but maybe to ask a question or something. brycec: I usually point people at Freenode's own web irc gateway up_the_irons: ah OK ***: nathani has joined #arpnetworks
