@paul_ipv6@infosec.exchange @mcr314@todon.nl 😆 Those are great questions. But they don’t really apply to my use case. I’m trying to learn and understand what the industry norm is so that I can replicate it in my network at my house. I currently have eight different logical entities / companies / organizations that I’m planing on having peer with a pair of route servers in my IXP. One of which is my residential SOHO ISP via one of my routers. It makes perfect sense for seven of them to use the eighth via the IXP as a transit provider. Each network is completely independent and has multiple VLANs and non-overlapping IP space: • home network (pocket super computers; smart lights, DNS server, printer, etc.) • TNCLabNet • VPS stack A (four “”systems working in concert) • VPS stack B (…) • VPS stack C (…) • CGHMN • ISP • general sandbox separate from TNCLabNet I know im making things more complex than they need to be. But I can easily see each of these bullets as separate members in an IX. Each using a private ASN when peering. Each having completely different configuration and management style. Sounds like IX members to me. 😉

@paul_ipv6@infosec.exchange @mcr314@todon.nl it’s really seeming like it’s a business choice that the IXP makes how they want the IXP to run.

Does anyone know why Internet Exchange Points (IXPs) dislike -> discourage -> prohibit transit providers from joining the IXP? Is it a resource consumption issue? • bps / pps? • # of prefixes in the RS? Is it an incompatible policy issue? • Wherein transit providers are trying to profit off of what IXPs are trying to exchange for free? • discrepancy in peering policies; open & free vs closed & for profit I don’t see any technical reason why it couldn’t be done. I feel the need to search my NANOG archive to see if it’s been discussed.

@masukomi@connectified.com @hazelnoot@enby.life Interesting take on this. I can’t say as I disagree. I personally like the idea of separate work trees against a common repo. Each random idea being its own work tree. That way they are very visible and I don’t need to stash for urgent things. I can work on the urgent issue in a different work tree, possibly specific to the urgent issue.

RE: @drscriptt@oldbytes.space

I have this funny thing about wanting to not ignore certificate trust issues / click through warnings.

It started years ago because I found it faster to have things trust and not prompt me.

Then I found things worked better / fewer errors.

Then the security implications of ignoring / clicking through warnings sunk in when watching others work.

If we strive to make things be trusted, then the warning is a real warning that something is failing despite our efforts to make it work. Maybe something needs to be investigated.

🤔🤨🧐

@rmbolger@mastodon.social @nicksilkey@hachyderm.io there is the best practice of not less than two for redundancy no single point of failure. But the only upper bound guideline that I’ve seen is what will fit in a single reply packet without truncation. Remember it used to be 512 bytes was the smallest common denominator. Not it’s larger but I’m not sure what.

@ryanc after overcoming kernel issues I was / will be dealing with net booting RHEL installer and using an NFS root without using an initrd at work. Weird memory thing on an IBM Power 10 server which still has the 256 MB memory region not able to hold kernel and initrd in memory. Something about Power 10 changes the way memory is allocated. Seems as if the kernel needs to negotiate more memory. But GRUB doesn’t do that. IBM’s answer is to change a frame configuration setting. But that requires a full frame outage. And there are production LPARs on this frame.

@mikebabcock I would wonder if you could use (an environment variable which points to) a custom openssl.conf file that has separate configurations specifying where the trusted root certificates are. Today has been long enough that I don’t remember if it’s .conf or .cnf, so take what I’m saying for a BIG helping of salt. You might be able to have a custom file that includes the default configuration file and overwrite the CA specification at the end. Or if OpenSSL’s config is like OpenSSH’s config specify it at the top and nothing comi g after can change it. You can play (sym)link games to have some of the same certs in custom CA directories as the default CA directory. Or elsewhere if they aren’t in the default. I’m speculating out of my ring buffer. But that’s what I’d try if I were you. No, I do t fault you for wanting to do this. I may blame you a little bit for prompting me to question the same thing.

@mikebabcock @Retreival9096 @Madagascar_Sky I’m surprised that the AV doesn’t trust the local root certificate store. 🤔 TIL I share your concern about a root certificate as a vendor. In corporate IT there is more freedom for such things. Though lately I’ve been messing with name based constraints as I work on things. It’s an ongoing effort that both works (for the name on the tin) and doesn’t work (for IPs when name constraining to corp domain) at the same time. Doing unconstrained allows me to sign SANs for the FQDN, UQN, nickname, and IP.

@ryanc@infosec.exchange I like it! I see you are the “B” / data persuasion. No “A” / telco for you! Unless you cross over. 🤭

@sirwumpus being on both sides of the hiring table gave me perspective. Maybe not good perspective, but perspective none the less. I was the applicant / hiree a few years ago. Before that I was on the hiring, or at least interviewing team. That company had hundreds of thousands of applicants per year. Responding to each with the same time they put in their application was quite untenable. Responding to candidates that made it to first round of interviews was polite respect. Each round reduces the pool by an order of magnitude. So we could respond to candidates more gracefully. Going from 1000 candidates to 10 for a position was hard. Going from 10 to 3 was as hard. Going from 3 to 2 to 1 was equally hard. Then after all that there was a real chamce that the candidate wouldn’t accept the offer. The time involved is staggering on all sides and for all participants. But I do believe that each candidate deserves a polite and timely answer from a human. Sadly, earlier in the process is more form letter like. I dislike it. But I get it. I’m not saying it’s correct. Just what I observed.

@gumnos @wrmsr Ayup. I’ve seen and shared that with others before. It’s very true.

@Nymnympseudonymm@mstdn.science @StumpyTheMutt@social.linux.pizza @BlackIkeEagle@mastodon.pirateparty.be @bert_hubert@eupolicy.social I think I’ve seen people try to say AI / LLM can produce good results without the upfront work. I question the veracity of their suggestions.
