systemd-nspawn
by Gary 18 Aug '26

18 Aug '26

I had this security model where everything internet facing was in a VM. Multiple VM's. Banks and other financial institutions are starting to lock me out because they are fingerprinting me and see that I am in a VM. I managed to confirm that, for example, Etrade, looks at WebGL and my vidio card/GPU, as a minimum. I've been looking around and systemd-nspawn looks like it might be a good option. Does anyone have any experience with it? -Gary

Can someone attempt to post from a gmail account? I updated some tls settings for the letsencrypt certs that mailman is using.

One of our new members, forget his name, works with proxmox. https://proxmox.com/en/ I have not worked with it, yet I see that it is built upon Debian. Any comments? I thought that it looked interesting. Brian -- Brian Lavender https://www.brie.com/brian/ "There are two ways of constructing a software design.

Linux Networking
by Gary 27 Jul '26

27 Jul '26

Can anyone recomment any good Docs/Tutorial/Book/Cookbook on Linux networking? I'm finding I'm a little rusty and need a refresher on everything from VM's to mesh and making AP's. Plus things change. I'm not as familiar with ip was I was with the older stuff and it's time to upgrade that too. Step by step with examples would be my preference. But I'll take what is out there.

Apparently, TLS does not start for the mailing list server. I am investigating. Brian -- Brian Lavender https://www.brie.com/brian/ "There are two ways of constructing a software design.

Linux job
by Brian E Lavender 26 Jul '26

Check this one out at Gulfstream. It mentions using Linux and python. I like the description where they say gust conditions versus turbulence. That sounds about the equivalent of bending the paper clip once versus continuously bending it back and forth. IIRC, if you bend it into the plastic region of stress, it will eventually break. https://careers.gulfstream.com/job/Savannah-Loads-and-Dynamics-Engineer-GA-…
