The real answer here.

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.

I didn't come up with this idea myself, this is straight from OpenBSD disk setup guide (which I personally trust as a good source of info) :

Encrypting External Disks

This section explains how to set up a cryptographic softraid volume for an external USB drive. An outline of the steps is as follows:

  • Overwrite the drive's contents with random data

[...]

# dd if=/dev/urandom of=/dev/rsd3c bs=1m

/usr/share/language/pack/français: Permission refusée

Well as I see it, it will just do a lot of write operations to your disk, which might eventually damage it if you do it a lot (just like any write operation done on a disk). However, this specific command isn't bad per se, and is even technically a good thing to do for preparing to full disk encryption.

sudo cat is pointless here, better do

Not with busybox's rm 🤘

Nevermind I figured it out, you gotta use sudo for it to work properly !

Nevermind I figured what went wrong, I mistyped it initially ! It would have been much easier to copy paste it if it wasn't a picture...

Fun fact, the command displays a nice cat picture in ASCII :)

I just tried your command and it yields a lot of Permission denied. Is it expected or your command is incomplete ?

I tried but got an error:

:& : Command not found

Is it expected ? Did I type something wrong ? I'm confused...

Just like stabbing yourself if the eye is better with a fork than with a rusty fork.

pf gang rise up !

 

I used to rock a bare metal 1Tib HDD server for 17€/month, that I used as an NFS server for all my other servers which needed storage space.

First of all, NFS kinda sucks and I'm looking for alternative solution that I can use on OpenBSD to mount remote volumes.

Secondly, I'm planning to move this server to hetzner (my current provider), but they lack affordable storage (it's 50€/month for 1Tib). Do you know an hosting provider which would provide high volumes for not so expensive prices ?

TL;DR: I use a vim like editor which tackles Vim's greatest weakness: vis.

Yggdrasil as a VPN alternative (yggdrasil-network.github.io)

I've been accessing my servers over Yggdrasil for the last few years and I never see it mentioned in self hosting communities, so here you go !

Yggdrasil works over IPv6 and brings encryption at the network interface level (similarly to a VPN). The cool thing is that your IP address is derived from your private key, so when you try to connect to a specific IP, your packets are encrypted so that ONLY the destination server can decrypt it (thus preventing MITM attacks). And as everything is encrypted at the NIC level, you can safely use plain text protocols ;)

How cool is that ?
