I cannot speak for prahou, but I’m fairly sure we both agree on this:
We call them crowdstals down there. They used to only target ancients NT kernels but apparently they evolved to infect other environments. Eh, nature.
endlessh was pretty cool and a more modern version is even better ! I’ll give it a shot !
On a side note, I found a way to trap HTTP connections too while working on my cyb.farm project. The go implementation is ridiculously simple: tarpit.go. It works by providing an endless stream of custom headers to the client, which it is supposed to ingest before getting to the content itself.
More like openblade2head. What an evolution !
Keeping the source IP intact means you’ll have troubles routing back the traffic through host B.
Basically host A won’t be able to access the internet without going through B, which could not be what you want.
Here’s how it works:
On host A:
On host B:
This should do what you need. However, if I may comment it out, I’d say you should give up on carrying the source IP address down to host A. This setup I described is clunky and can fail in many ways. Also I can see no benefits of doing that besides having “pretty logs” on host A. If you really need good logs, I’d suggest setting up a good reverse proxy on host B and forwarding it’s logs to a collector on host A.
OpenBSD is the most pleasing expérience I’ve had with an OS. It’s fully contained and has all the tools you need without needing to install anything (eg a DNS, HTTP, SMTP servers, a proxy, a good firewall). All config files look alike and use the same keywords for the same things, making it straightforward to configure everything.
And regarding RAID 1, I’ve never done it myself, but it totally works out of the box (as well as full disk encryption).
OpenBSD for all of them.
The OpenBlade should be renamed OpenBard: prettify stories, lies, likes being thrown out.
Can’t wait for it to join Lo0 as a secondary singer tbh !

Do you set the wallpaper from your profile ? I’ve only tried 9 on a remote system but image handling was painfully slow so I gave up on setting the wallpaper from the Rio theme. Maybe that’s faster locally on bare metal ?
A huge thank you for all of this !
The techno-mage and the unix_surrealism universe are the most entertaining and refreshing form of art I’ve seen regarding Unix and technology in general.
This is unlike anything else before, and definitely the #1 reason why I’m now sticking to Lemmy and the fediverse.
And man you know how much I love your style too ;)
Keep it up, you’re amazing ❤️
I messed up, that’s the opposite actually ^^
I’m reading all the comments and I’m shocked… In France, with uncapped access and 1Gbps down/600Mbps up (theorical) I pay 40€/mo (30€ every six month when I call to complain that it’s too expensive). And it’s definitely not the cheapest provider.
That’s insane !
That’s cheap indeed. Is it possible to install a different OS than those listed on their website ?
I’ll look more into FUSE based remote storage more generally because it seems to be my only option besides NFS. I’ve heard great feedback from SSHFS so I’ll bench it eventually and see how it goes.
My main issue with NFS is that it’s been unreliable in my case (multiple servers connected over wireguard, over internet). Which cause locks and latency for the applications that read/write to it (Matrix server, distributed repository, …).
Of course if you can afford connecting the NFS server directly to the servers, that’s perfect but I’m more on the worst case scenario ^^
Ok thanks, so it’s similar to rclone mount, just with another tool.
How do you mount it ?
My dear friend, this is (again!) some beautiful art you got there ! This could easily be the artwork for openbsd 7.6 ! If you don’t mind me I’d like to mention it on /c/openbsd so your work doesn’t go unnoticed? :D
