[mou-net] Common Redpolls and Peanuts

2024-04-07 Thread Steve Wilson
Common redpolls finally came into feeders here in the NE several weeks ago,
and at our feeders in Isabella have been inhaling peanuts. I first noticed
this in Tower two years ago. Oddly, when I inquired about this on Ely Field
Naturalists, two well-established feeding stations reported the same, while
two others, further west, reported they weren’t touching them. That raises
the possibility that this is an individual flock behavior, and even the
possibility of social contagion of a learned behavior, à la England’s great
tits. The sample size is far too small to draw that conclusion, so I’m
hoping others will share their observations one way or the other with me. It
would also be helpful to know your general location, how many years you’ve
been putting out peanuts, and to the best of your recollection, when they
started eating them, if they are.

 

Much appreciated!

Re: [gentoo-user] Re: What to do about openssl

2023-10-04 Thread Steve Wilson

From https://www.php.net/manual/en/openssl.requirements.php

PHP 7.1-8.0 requires OpenSSL >= 1.0.1, < 3.0.
PHP >= 8.1 requires OpenSSL >= 1.0.2, < 4.0.

So it looks like you need to upgrade php to 8.1

I've a similar problem with my server requiring php 7.2 and trying to 
figure out the upgrade path for all php based sites/apps is a pain.

Indeed. OpenSSL 1.1.1 is dead. Support ended a few weeks ago.

Thanks for that, I think this is the route I'm going to take.

The original exim install was to migrate from qmail and is why the 
historical maildrop transport is in there. As it's no longer required it 
should simplify the router and allow for a single LMTP transport.

[exim] Untainting help

2023-07-24 Thread Steve Wilson via Exim-users
I'm currently running exim 4.92 and having no taint issues, the moment I 
update to 4.96 I get the below message in the logs and messages bounce.
I understand the tainting and not trusting 3rd party entered data but 
I'm looking to fix this the right way, as google has presented a few 
hacks and that's not how I'd like to go.


1qJtZ6-0004kS-1z ** st...@swsystem.co.uk R=mysql_user 
T=local_dovecot_lda: Tainted arg 2 for local_dovecot_lda transport 
command: 'st...@swsystem.co.uk'


My understanding is that this comes from my transport 
(local_dovecot_lda) and some documentation states I can use 
${domain_data} and ${local_part_data}, however local_part_data doesn't 
seem available for the transport.
Should I be doing a mysql lookup for local_parts in the router or is 
there a better way to simplify my config?


Router:
mysql_user:
  driver    = accept
  domains   = +local_domains
  condition = ${lookup mysql{ \
    SELECT CONCAT(username,'@',domain) AS 
email \

    FROM user \
    WHERE 
username='${quote_mysql:$local_part}' \

    AND domain='${quote_mysql:$domain}' \
    AND SMTP_allowed='YES' \
  }{true}{false}}
  local_part_suffix = +* : -* : _*
  local_part_suffix_optional
  transport = ${if 
exists{/home/vpopmail/domains/${domain}/${local_part}/.mailfilter} 
{local_mysql_maildrop} {local_dovecot_lda} }


Transport:
local_dovecot_lda:
  driver    = pipe
  path  = "/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin"
  environment   = 
"HOME=/home/vpopmail/domains/${quote_mysql:domain}/${quote_mysql:$local_part}/;ORIG_LHS=${original_local_part};ORIG_RHS=${original_domain}"
  home_directory    = 
"/home/vpopmail/domains/${quote_mysql:$domain}/${quote_mysql:$local_part}/"
  current_directory = 
"/home/vpopmail/domains/${quote_mysql:$domain}/${quote_mysql:$local_part}/"
  command   = "/usr/libexec/dovecot/deliver -d 
${quote_mysql:$local_part}@${quote_mysql:$domain}"

  log_output
  delivery_date_add
  envelope_to_add
  return_path_add
  message_suffix =
  temp_errors = 64 : 69 : 70: 71 : 72 : 73 : 74 : 75 : 78
  user  = vpopmail
  group = vpopmail

local_domains is defined as:
domainlist local_domains = ${lookup mysql {\
    SELECT domain FROM user WHERE 
domain='${quote_mysql:$domain}' \

  UNION \
    SELECT domain FROM alias WHERE 
domain='${quote_mysql:$domain}' \

  UNION \
    SELECT domain FROM catchall WHERE 
domain='${quote_mysql:$domain}'\

   }}

Am I correct in thinking I should add a local_parts lookup to the router 
as below or is there a more elegant way to get the $*_data variables to 
the transport?

local_parts  = ${lookup mysql{ SELECT username \
    FROM user \
    WHERE 
username='${quote_mysql:$local_part}' \

    AND domain='${quote_mysql:$domain}' \
    AND SMTP_allowed='YES' }}

Looking at my current config it's been in place since 2010 with minor 
updates, I've spent hours trying to get my head round what needs doing 
and would appreciate any available advice.


Regards
Steve.

There is not much time left to submit proposals for 2023 Savaloja grants. Last 
year we received the fewest proposals since 2002, no doubt because of 
pandemic-related complications in conducting projects. Consequently, not all 
available funds were awarded. Let’s not let that happen again!

If you have an idea for a project that increases our understanding of birds, 
promotes preservation of birds and their natural habitats, or increases public 
interest in birds, information and application guidelines are at

[mou-net] Suet-eating Redpolls

2022-04-24 Thread Steve Wilson
In a previous post, I asked for reports of redpolls eating suet that didn't
have seeds in it. Several replies came in where observers had suet with
seeds in it, but they could tell the redpolls were eating the suet, not just
the seeds. If that was something you observed and didn't report, I'd
appreciate hearing about it. And incidentally, about 90% of the hundreds of
redpolls that were at our Tower feeder yesterday disappeared overnight. Same
at our Isabella feeder.

[mou-net] Common Redpoll Feeding Frenzy - St Louis County

2022-04-22 Thread Steve Wilson
Unprecedented numbers of common redpolls have been frequenting bird feeders
in NE MN this late winter/spring. An extended period of regular snowfalls
has kept natural foods covered, left the redpolls largely dependent on bird
feeders, and resulted in something of a mob mentality at feeders. These two
videos illustrate the lengths they'll go to score a meal.

If you are ever fortunate enough to experience this, and know a young person
you'd like to see escape from the digital into the natural world, give them
a handful of seeds and ask them to be still for a few minutes. It could be
the transformational experience that opens their eyes to a whole new world,
and eventually be part of the next generation of bird enthusiasts sharing
their passion on this forum.

[mou-net] Common Redpolls Eating Suet

2022-04-16 Thread Steve Wilson
In early February I noticed my first observation of common redpolls eating
suet that did not contain seeds of any type. At first it seemed to be a
single bird, then a few, and has gained in popularity to where they are
mobbing the suet ball today. Others in NE MN are reporting the same. It
should be noted that reports of hundreds of redpolls at a single seed feeder
are not unusual in the last week or so. I've not found anywhere, including
in the authoritative Birds of the World species' account, that mentions suet
as a food item. I'd like to document the extent of this behavior. To that
end, I would appreciate receiving any reports on common redpolls eating
non-seed-containing suet this winter, or in past winters, for that matter.
If you noted any dates, please include them. Even approximations of when the
behavior was first noted, numbers, and how the behavior progressed - or
didn't - as time went on would be much appreciated. And of course the
location. Replying to me individually is fine. 

 

Footnote: I just had two feeding on peanuts, which I've also not seen
before, but peanuts are not so far afield from their supposed winter diet
limited to vegetable matter.

 

Thanks!

Redoing the process just by hitting "enter" soled the problem; new

make olddefconfig will the same as oldconfig while picking the defaults,

[mou-net] Spruce Grouse Flock - Lake County

2022-02-28 Thread Steve Wilson
Yesterday Bob Tamannen of Soudan encountered a flock of spruce grouse on Hwy 1 
about 2 miles east of the Spruce Road - he did not note the precise location. 
There is an interesting backstory of the spruce grouse roadkill that didn't 
happen, a refreshing change. As he was driving down the highway, he noted a 
brown object ahead in the road. It wasn't until he was almost on it before it 
took the shape of a grouse, but it was too late to stop their motorhome to 
avert a collision. He looked in the rearview mirror, expecting to see feathers 
flying, but there sat the lump, seemingly intact. Doubting that it had actually 
been a grouse, he turned around and went back. Upon returning to the spot, to 
his surprise, the lump was still there and it was an unharmed spruce grouse. 
Apparently the bird hadn't flinched, even as a large motorhome passed just 
overhead. As he and Pat watched, first one, then two more, and eventually a 
total of nine other spruce grouse flew in from the surrounding woods and joined 
the lucky bird. When another car came along, Bob flashed his lights and blew 
his horn to get the car to stop, then shooed the grouse off the road so they 
would be safe, at least for the time being.

[mou-net] Gray Jay Vocalizations

2022-02-23 Thread Steve Wilson
Bird vocalizations aren't a common topic on this site, but I'm posting a link 
to a recording I made that includes nice calls by a pair. What makes the video 
so compelling, though, is the context, which you'll understand if you read the 
caption under the video and then watch the video. I may be a little biased, 
though: the gray jay (yes, I know they changed the name) is my favorite bird:

[mou-net] Spruce Grouse, Lake County

2021-12-16 Thread Steve Wilson
Yesterday three spruce grouse (one, unfortunately a car-kill) were found in the 
traditional area along Lake County Hwy 2, in this case, 2.1 miles north of the 
Sand River crossing. This is in the Greenwood Burn, which means at least some 
birds survived as the fire swept through there in August. What remains to be 
seen is whether they will survive and reproduce long term in their 
highly-altered habitat.

2021-11-05 Thread Steve Wilson
Blue jays do, indeed, cache food. I've watched as a single jay crammed up to 80 
sunflower seeds into its bulging, expandable throat and esophagus before flying 
off to cache them in the ground, and repeat this many times/day. Our gray jays 
do the same with peanuts, mealworms, suet and a number of other offerings, 
except they use their sticky saliva to form a food bolus which they typically 
attach to a conifer tree for later retrieval. Incredibly, researchers believe 
they can cache - and retrieve, through spatial memory - up to 100,000 
caches/season. So next time someone throws out "bird brain" as an epithet, you 
may want to drop that fact bomb on them.

From:Judith Clayton 
Subject: birds caching food

I’m wondering how common it is for birds to caching food?
Currently, I’m offering peanuts in the shell to Blue Jays.  Their usual 
behavior is to pick up a peanut in the shell and fly off with it:  often to the 
White Spruce trees in my back yard.  I can’t say that I’ve actually seen them 
caching a peanut, but I wonder.  I think that I’ve seen crows caching seeds 
from my feeders rather close distance from the feeders.  Also, do pelagic birds 
or other birds cache food?  Just now I’m thinking about the “butcher bird” or 
Shrikes.
I’m looking forward to your comments.  TIA  Judy in Douglas county,

[mou-net] Greenwood Fire Affects Traditional Spruce Grouse Viewing Area: Lake County

2021-08-21 Thread Steve Wilson
The Greenwood Fire started last Sunday and grew rapidly, breaching the
9,000-acre mark yesterday while making a four-mile run as it jumped Lake Co.
Rd. 2. Unfortunately, about 1.5 miles of the two-mile, iconic "Spruce Grouse
Alley" was affected. For the first half mile going north from the Sand River
crossing, the fire appears to have burned just the east side of the highway.
This is based on a map on the Superior National Forest Facebook page; the
area is closed to the public. For the next mile or so the map shows the fire
having burned both sides of the highway. The map shows the fire along the
entire length of Hwy 2 as "intense." There is the distinct possibility that
the fire has reset the successional clock back to a forest dominated by
seedlings and saplings. Good for some birds, not so much for spruce grouse. 

 

I won't be able to respond to comments, because for some reason unknown to
me, I stopped receiving automatic updates on the 16th.

Re: [RCU] [DMARC-Fail] Continuing DKIM problems with RCM servers?

2021-05-09 Thread Steve Wilson
As this list adds/ensures "[RCU]" is in the subject, that's at least one 
component that's changing. It also appends the mailing list signature as 
a footer to the body which changes that too.

If only this list is showing DKIM validation failure while sending to 
you test email say gmail show DKIM validation as working, you should 
have all the information you need in order to find the cause.


 1) The case where it always breaks.
 2) The case where it always succeeds.
 3) The same test which can exercise both.
 4) Access to compare the results to look for differences

Email a message to the list from the troubled DKIM signing service, 
and CC your gmail account which shows DKIM signing works.


To be the most kind to list members, make your test be something that 
is on-topic to the list, so it isn't a junk message sent to all list 
members, distributing a cost of reading and deleted or just deleting a 
test message among many people. (You could imagine the kind of wasted 
time if everyone on the list tested DKIM with test messages of no 
value to any other members.)


Complete a character-by-character comparison of each of the items your 
MTA uses to compute your DKIM sig between the message to the list, and 
the copy of the same message you CC-ed to your gmail account. (Subject 
is a common place for a message to get marked-up like with adding 
[RCU] to a subject. This is often resolved by adding another DKIM sig 
which includes those changes, and get used instead of later DKIM.


If every single character (including whitespace tabs vs space, \r vs 
\n, etc), extra whitespaces, especially in between strings without 
previous spaces and alphabetic characters match for headers specified 
in DKIM header for sigs are exactly the same, then 2 sore-spots for 
you to investigate which are common sources of problems:
 1) The separation between "headers" and "body" : some services will 
violate an *implied* process for adding headers to e-mail messages and 
"add them at the bottom" between the headers / body separation, which 
can sometimes cause problems with dkim validation. (IIRC, the mail RFC 
only says header ^Received.* lines must be added at top top in order 
they are added, but I don't recall comment for other headers mentioned 
in email RFC being required to always be added only to the top. (Other 
RFC for other e-mail headers can indicate only adding to top in 
chronological order.) Most of the time, MTA and milters will do the 
commonly accepted thing and add only to the top, but some do not, and 
can break the method used to separate headers from body and break DKIM 
eval. It can happen with the last header adding an extra '\n' or 
adding a '\r' or other causes.
 2) Footers added by lists (and extra characters including 
whitespaces) can also break DKIM evaluation of the body, consider 
copying the broken message to a text file and run your favorite DKIM 
validation tool against the message with the bad DKIM check, removing 
items or revising items not included in the gmail received message or 
change on list-message compared to gmail message.


The above can usually help a mail admin identify the causes email from 
for *their* failing DKIM checks on lists with DKIM checks from other 
users are fine. There are other cases for causing problems, but the 
above is usually enough to identify most causes. If the above is not 
enough, consider possible multibyte charset homograph replacement, and 
check for those.


Other tests can be done if you can control the attributes that DKIM 
uses to generate a sig, but that "trial and error" approach to 
diagnosing problems is usually considered very bad for mailing lists 
members.


Next, if you are using a 4k key for DKIM signing, that can cause 
problems with some older dkim validation tools. 2k seems well supported.


Last, consider changing your dkim hashing ALG from sha1 to one of the 
sha2 class of hashing (sha2 or sha256 (a=rsa-sha256;), etc.) (As of 
the writing of this message, sha1 has been phased out of many crypto 
systems for hashing. In the

I'm not sure that you've followed the thread fully, George.

Your search will pick up "The Repair Shop" programmes in the cache, no
problem. The original question (from Steve Wilson) is about picking up
programmes that are not in the cache, but available on iPlayer, such as

"box

sets" and those broadcast through the "red button" or the iPlayer itself,

like

the Formula E races.

Admittedly in my example only two or three of the lines are essential -

pid,

pidrecursive, and output (if you don't want all downloads going to the

same

folder).

The others are put there by the "web interface" as they are my default
options.

I hope that's clear.

load of eps on MVGroup.org and Torrenting.com. There's quite a
discussion on the various Facebook groups about no. 23!! Thanks for
your info. CJB

They suggest that you keep checking but if you have a pvr script for

[Elecraft] My K3 just wasn't working right today

2020-03-07 Thread Steve Wilson via Elecraft
I've had the K3 and P3 for a while. Bought them used from a SK estate. I've 
always felt that it hasn't quite worked 100%. I've followed the manual and Fred 
Cady's book about adjusting audio, gain, etc. Today for the DX contest, I just 
couldn't make consistent contacts, but I made some. Whenever I couldn't get a 
contact that I felt I should, I switched over to my Kenwood TS-590S on the same 
antenna, and made the contact. I'm not sure where to start troubleshooting this 
other than dropping off to Elecraft to have them check it. Any suggestions?
Thanks, Steve  K6WW

Re: rewriting $arg into request.

2020-01-31 Thread Steve Wilson
Hugo's alias basically creates a /alias/index.html file which contains a 
meta refresh. I managed to find something using an if which does the 
job, however using the map solution presented is much more elegant as it 
would reduce the redirects.


    if ($args ~ "^p=(\d+)") {
    set $page $1;
    set $args "";
    rewrite ^.*$ /p/$page last;
    break;
    }

I knew there'd be a simpler way and I due to the time of night I was 
struggling.

Without knowing how hugo works, I would suggest ignoring its "alias"
feature for this, and just letting nginx invite the client that requests
"old", to instead request "new".

Assuming that you have the list of old-and-new urls that you care about,
and that the old urls are unique case-insensitively, then using a "map"
reading "$request_uri" (old) and writing, say, "$hugo_url" (new), would
probably be the simplest.

 map $request_uri $hugo_url {
   /?p=1234 /this_nice_title;
 }

in http{} (add more lines as wanted), along with something like

 if ($hugo_url) { return 301 $hugo_url; }

in the correct server{}, should work, I think. (Untested by me!)

(Maybe change the "return" line to include "https://this-server$hugo_url;,
if you want that.)

(If all of your "old" requests have the same content from the first /
to the ?, then you could choose to isolate the "if" within the matching
"location = /" block for efficiency; there may be extra config needed
in that case.)

rewriting $arg into request.

2020-01-30 Thread Steve Wilson

I'm currently in the process of transitioning from wordpress to hugo.
For anyone not familiar with these, wordpress is php based and hugo 
outputs static content (keeping it simple)
Currently wordpress is using ugly urls for posts, so "/?p=1234" in 
wordpress might be "/this_nice_title" in hugo.
Now hugo allows me to specify aliases too which I'd like to leverage to 
maintain links, but this is where I seem to be struggling with 
rewrite/map etc.


Am I missing a way to access the arguments?

What I'm currently wanting to do is rewrite "/?p=1234" to "/1234/", 
"/p=1234/" or even "/p1234/" but can't figure it out.


Anyone got an easy way to do this, or a better way?

This is the last call for Savaloja grant proposals for 2019. Grants can be 
awarded for projects that increase our understanding of birds, promote 
preservation of birds and their natural habitats, or increase public interest 
in birds. Proposals that include those currently underrepresented in 
Minnesota's birding community are welcome as a means of broadening public 
support for birds and their habitat.

Details on past projects and how to apply can be found at 
http://moumn.org/grants.html. The deadline for receipt of grant applications is 
January 20, 2019. Grant recipients will be notified by April 1, 2019. 

A record $17,000 is available for 2019 grants, thanks to the MOU Board’s 
decision at their November 30 meeting and the generosity of our members over 
the past year. To continue this level of support, though, we’ll need to up our 
game in 2019. If you’d like to become a supporter of Savaloja projects that

I filed patent 3,810,234 on Aug 21, 1972. It includes a dual-d pfd with
variable delay in the feedback path to eliminate deadband. The term
deadband is not included in the patent since it did not exist at the time.
The google url is

https://patentimages.storage.googleapis.com/53/fc/f0/26d83e477e999a/US3810234.pdf

The dual-d is items 24 and 26 on page 4. The feedback is item 58, and the
variable delay is item 28 on the same page. It turns out the delay was not
needed in production since there was no deadband when it was shorted out.

I recall finding an article on the dual-d pfd that was earlier than my
patent but I forget where I found it.

Ignore the name Steve Wilson. That is my online name to foil id theft and

[mou-net] Three-toed Woodpecker Country Western Song?

2018-03-03 Thread Steve Wilson
Yesterday I and two friends returned to the location in the Lost Lake Peatland 
outside Tower where we'd previously found both black-backed and American 
three-toed woodpeckers (see Feb 3 post). We were fortunate enough to find both 
species again, including a pair of American three-toed woodpeckers that we were 
able to observe at length. One was especially cooperative, allowing Connor to 
approach and photograph it from perhaps ten feet away as it flecked bits of 
bark from a dead spruce just above eye level and slightly upwind of Connor. 
That wind direction mattered became apparent minutes later when we heard Conner 
mutter "I'm getting 3-toed woodpecker sawdust in my eye." We advised Conner, 
that while he might have the makings of a good country song title there, his 
complaint was unlikely to elicit much sympathy in the birding community.

[Elecraft] New KAT500/KPA500 setup and utility software problems

2018-02-09 Thread Steve Wilson via Elecraft
Hi there,
I'm assisting my godfather with setting up a new KAT500 & KPA500 to add to his 
K3/P3.
Issues I am having:
1) KAT500 makes quite a racket whenever keying up. It seems to settle down, but 
as soon as I speak, it freaks out again. He has two antennas...a hex beam on 
ant 1 and a G5RV on ant 2. The KAT500 seems to behave the same on both.
2) He is running Norton on his PC. Norton allowed me to download the KAT500 
utility, but not the KPA500 utility. It automatically deletes it. What's up 
with that?
Thanks for any assistance. I tried to contact Elecraft support, but I guess I 
was too close to closing.

What concerns me though is that we have heard very little from Millennia about

It would just be nice if they kept us in the loop as to what was happening.

[mou-net] Three-toed and Black-backed Woodpeckers -- St Louis County

2018-02-03 Thread Steve Wilson
There is an area outside Tower, on the edge of the Lost Lake Peatland, where 
black-backed and three-toed woodpeckers have consistently been found in recent 
days, and it appears from the trees in the area that they have been there for 
some time. Today we found four individual three-toed woodpeckers and two 
black-backed woodpeckers, but there could easily have been a few more 
individuals. They are feeding in an area of only a few acres, and are fairly 
easy to approach. I won't give the location details here because they are a 
ways off the road and those unfamiliar with the area would likely trespass on 
private property in trying to access the site. However, if there is interest, 
we (Marshall Helmberger, who found the site, Mary Shedd and/or myself) are 
willing to lead a group in there next Saturday, February 10. Those interested 
would meet in Tower at 9:30am and convoy to the site about 20 minutes from 
town. Access is by snowshoe on a packed trail about 1/3 mile in length. There

[mou-net] Spruce Grouse in Lake County

2018-01-14 Thread Steve Wilson
Not sure if word is getting out about numerous spruce grouse being seen on Hwy 
1 south of the Kawisihiwi River. All reports I have are second-hand, so I don't 
have complete details, but here's what I have. Seven were seen on Hwy 1 on or 
about Jan 10 between the Kawishiwi River and FR1902, and two more were seen 
further south from there. Two were seen "in the same vicinity" on Jan. 9. The 
most striking report was of about 50 birds during a drive by someone traveling 
up Hwy 1. Regardless of whether the estimate is off, this person saw quite a 
few birds because I saw video taken by him of groups of 10, 7 and 3 birds.

Re: [LegacyUG] Bing Maps and Geo-Code

2018-01-04 Thread Steve Wilson
Hi,

 

I just recently purchased and downloaded the new version of Legacy. 

 

I use the Bing Maps and geo-code extensively. 

 

I am extremely disappointed to discover that this part of the program was not 
working at the time to updated program was made available.

 

How long will I have to wait before this problem is fixed?

[mou-net] Savaloja Fund Donations

2017-12-04 Thread Steve Wilson
At Saturday's annual paper session there were five well-received presentations 
by current or former Savaloja grant recipients. At the end of the meeting I 
announced that we were within $840 of receiving all the donations needed to 
receive the full match from a $5000 conditional donation made for Savaloja 
projects this spring. Several MOU members generously donated on their way out 
the door, putting us within $500 of being able to claim the full matching 
amount. The catch: The deadline to claim the matching funds is this Sunday. A 
few folks have contacted me because they've been unsure where or how to donate, 
so if you want to help us claim the full matching amount, just go to the MOU 
home page (http://moumn.org/) and click on the "Donate" link at the upper 
right. You can use Paypal, a credit or debit card; just make sure to put 
"Savaloja Fund" in the "Add  Special Instructions to Seller" space. Or you can 
simply mail a check to:  MOU, Carpenter Nature Center, 12805 Saint Croix Trail 
South, Hastings, MN 55033. Write "Savaloja Fund in the memo line and as long as 
it is postmarked by this Saturday your donation will be eligible for the match. 

If you didn't make the paper session and want to read a brief summary of each 
of the projects we supported this year, go to http://moumn.org/grants.html. 
Thanks to all of you who have or will become Savaloja donors!

[mou-net] First Announcement: Savaloja Proposals Sought

2017-10-21 Thread Steve Wilson
MOU is seeking proposals for bird-related projects to be funded from the 
Savaloja Memorial Fund. Grants are awarded for projects that increase our 
understanding of birds, promote preservation of birds and their natural 
habitats, or increase public interest in birds. Proposals that involve 
populations currently underrepresented in Minnesota's birding community are 
especially welcome as a means of broadening public support for birds and their 
habitat.

Awards typically range from a few hundred dollars up to as much as $4000.  In 
2017 a record $17,000 was awarded by MOU to eight diverse, bird-related 
education and research projects (http://moumn.org/grants.html). We don’t know 
how much money is available for 2018 yet, but through the generosity of MOU 
members (you can donate at http://moumn.org/signup.html) we hope to at least 
equal the amount awarded this year.  

Application information may be obtained at the first link given above. The 
deadline for receipt of grant applications is January 31, 2018. Grant 
recipients will be notified by April 1, 2018.

[Elecraft] "Hot" setup for Field Day with op headset, logger headphones, and speakers

2017-06-27 Thread Steve Wilson via Elecraft
Hi all,
With Field Day behind us, and since our club runs mostly K3's, I thought I'd 
ask if anyone had suggestions for the best way to configure the K3, use 
adapters, audio distribution box of some sort, etc., to allow for a headset for 
the operator, headphones for the logger, and speakers for the "gallery" to hear.

Re: Last roadblock changing from Apache: SSL & PHP

2017-05-14 Thread Steve Wilson
Hi,

It doesn't look like that's actually getting passed to php-fpm.
You're possibly missing the php handling in your server{} block.
Check that you've got a location set for php files to do a fastcgi_pass.

eg.
location ~ \.php$ {
fastcgi_pass   unix:/var/run/php-fpm/sock;
fastcgi_index  index.php;
fastcgi_param  SCRIPT_FILENAME
$document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
client_body_timeout 300;
include /etc/nginx/fastcgi_params;
}

The above is from one of my roundcube instances and makes sure that php
files are processed by php.

Re: [Elecraft] K3 & Heil HM-10 Dual

I may have misread the Heil webpage. Heil responded and told me to read the K3

It did not, IMHO, and Elecraft couldn't help either. It would help if people, 
such as Heil, understood that we aren't all mic experts!

[Elecraft] K3 & Heil HM-10 Dual

2017-04-17 Thread Steve Wilson via Elecraft
Hi all,
I setup a K3, that my godfather is borrowing, while his Kenwood is off the air. 
I reviewed the webpage on the Heil Sound website here: 
https://heilsound.com/heil-amateur-radio/support/dsp-settings/all-things-elecraft/
  Unfortunately, the page refers to the mic with regard to the front panel 
setting, but does not specifically refer to the mic model with respect to the 
mic gain and mic bias settings. I sent an email to Heil Sound suggesting that 
the missing detail be added for this particular mic. But thought I'd ask here, 
in case anyone knew the answer. I deduced that the setting should be Front 
Panel, Low, No Bias, but am not 100% sure about that!
Here's the strange part about this story. I did have a QSO with a station in 
North Dakota after setting up the rig, so we knew all was working. We shut off 
the rig and I left for home. Later in the evening, my godfather turned the K3 
on and tried to transmit, but noticed that he wasn't getting any moving bars 
with the transmit audio. I walked him through putting the K3 into test mode, 
turning down the mic gain, and then turning up the mic gain while he was 
transmitting to find the optimum level, but we couldn't get the meter to show 
any response to the audio. I did the same procedure on my own K3 to make sure I 
was talking him through the right steps and it worked fine on mine. He did try 
a Heil headset with the same results. I plan to try and get up to visit again 
this weekend and bring a hand mic with me to try and make sure that it is 
definitely the K3 and not the mic.
So unless I'm missing something obvious, it seems like there is an issue with 
the K3 itself. Unfortunately, Elecraft support couldn't go beyond the same 
tests that I did last night.
Does anyone have any suggestions short of shipping to, or dropping off the rig, 
at Elecraft for a thorough test? 
Thanks, Steve  KG6HJU

[Elecraft] K3 slightly off frequency

2017-04-08 Thread Steve Wilson via Elecraft
A few of us in Fremont, CA have a weekly 10 meter net. I have a friend with a 
K3 who always sounds off frequency. When I use my K3, I've been told that I am 
off frequency. There are a couple of KX3 users who don't seem to have a 
problem. When I use my Kenwood TS-590 I seem to be on frequency.
Is the K3 known, in general, for being slightly off frequency?

With root level access I doubt you'll be able to meet your requirements. 
There's tools like ssldump which can be used to decrypt the network 
traffic, even implementing something via a module/lua would require the 
encryption key to be read and available for the sysadmins to use.


Personally I'd look at avoiding caching if it's got sensitive data by 
identifying common request data (paths/cookies etc) and excluding from 
the cache.


Alternatively, as Maxim has said, review and restrict access to the 
server.

It looks like the default for this is to be true so it would need to be

[Elecraft] Beware of the speaker magnet on the KX2

2017-01-28 Thread Steve Wilson via Elecraft
The other day I turned on my newly acquired KX2 (thanks Santa!) and found that 
the audio had a horrible buzzing noise. I started to assume the worst, but I 
didn't have time to troubleshoot it.
This morning, I turned on the rig and observed the buzzing again. I turned the 
rig over and started to laugh! A used staple was caught in the speaker grill. 
Once I removed the staple, the audio was perfect. This incident reminded me of 
my old BlackBerry. One day a paper clip was stuck to it. I had no idea how 
magnetic it was!
Bottom line...be careful of any loose, metal objects that may be under your 
KX2! :-)

MOU is seeking proposals for bird-related projects to be funded from the 
Savaloja Memorial Fund. Grants can be awarded for projects that increase our 
understanding of birds, promote preservation of birds and their natural 
habitats, or increase public interest in birds. Proposals that involve 
populations currently underrepresented in Minnesota's birding community are 
welcome as a means of broadening public support for birds and their habitat.

Awards typically range from a few hundred dollars up to as much as $4000.  In 
2016 six grants, totaling nearly $10,000, were awarded by MOU for education, 
research and habitat management (further details on these and past projects can 
be found at http://moumn.org/grants.html). However, $5000 in available funds 
was not awarded because of a lack of qualifying proposals. So if your 
organization has an idea for a great project, please consider applying! 

Application information may be obtained at the link given in the previous 
paragraph. The deadline for receipt of grant applications is January 31, 2017. 
Grant recipients will be notified by April 1, 2017.

Re: NGINX http-secure-link iphone issue !!

2016-08-10 Thread Steve Wilson
My initial thoughts here are that you're potentially putting private
information in the public hands.

iirc to use http_secure_link you need some "private" information to
generate the md5sum. This data should not be part of a mobile
application. Personally I'd look at a way to get the full url from
something only you have access to, even if it's the basic of asp/php
pages to prevent you putting the secure part of the md5 generation into
public hands where anything can happen. What would happen if you decided
to change this private date and people/customers didn't want to update
their applications or didn't understand the impact of not doing the
update right now?

[mou-net] Horned Grebe Plumages

2016-08-01 Thread Steve Wilson
Three days ago I found 3 horned grebes on a large wetland in central St. Louis 
County. Each was sporting a different plumage: one was clearly still in 
breeding plumage, a second appeared to be transitioning to winter basic 
plumage, but the third one was a puzzle--no "horns," and an all darkish (but 
not as dark as breeding plumage) head with the only evidence of differentiation 
between the upper half of head and cheeks a pure black line extending in back 
of the eye, and with a brownish-white foreneck. I'm trying to figure out if 
this might have been a first-year bird, which are described as having "duskier" 
heads than the winter basic plumage. One clue may be eye color. It had the 
bright red eye of an adult. Does anyone know when first-year horned grebes 
acquire this iris color? Also, I'd be interested in discussing the finer points 
of this observation with anyone who has extensive experience with horned grebe 
plumages, especially formative (first fall).

[mou-net] 2016 Savaloja Grants Awarded

2016-05-03 Thread Steve Wilson
Savaloja grants support projects that increase our understanding of birds, 
promote preservation of birds and their natural habitats, or increase public 
interest in birds. At their spring meeting, the MOU Board awarded just shy 
of $10,000 in Savaloja grants to the following recipients:

Edgerton Elementary School in Maplewood received $4405 to bring a 
program that uses birds as an integrating theme between different 
disciplines to their school (previous Savaloja grants  originated the same 
program for 2nd + 3rd graders at neighboring Harambee Elementary).  
Savaloja Committee member Ann Kessen captured the sense of the 
committee when she observed, “This is a well-developed plan for 
incorporating bird study into primary school curriculum and has a proven 
track record of success.  Appreciation for birds, and the natural world in 
general, needs to start early in life.  Additionally, this project, like the 
Harambee School project before it, serves a large number of folks who are 
under-represented in the birding community.” One reason this project is so 
exciting is the potential for this approach to be replicated in schools across 
the state.

Friends of Mississippi River received $2000 to help underwrite the cost of a 
natural resources management plan for the new 400-acre Hampton Woods 
Wildlife Management Area in Dakota County. The plan will ensure this site 
will be managed to provide habitat for forest-dwelling birds in an area 
sorely lacking in this type of natural community

Wood Lake Nature Center in Richfield will receive $400 towards the costs of 
a live owl show and bird banding demonstration at their Third Annual Big 
Day Birdathon. These programs help spark interest in birds among 
participating families from a diversity of communities .

Hawk Ridge Bird Observatory of Duluth was granted $1000 to create an 
online registration system for enrolling participants in the Western Great 
Lakes Owl Monitoring Survey. This means a more user-friendly experience 
for surveyors, less time spent on administration and more time spent on 
learning about the uncommon owl species that are now the subject of the 
survey.

University of Minnesota graduate student Annie Bracey received $1376 for 
a study of colony productivity and survival in Western Great Lakes Region 
Common Terns. A species in decline, this well-designed study should help 
identify factors that are negatively influencing the population’s productivity.

Project Minnesota/León received $640 to hire an interpreter for eight 
Spanish/English bird presentations given at churches, schools and wildlife 
refuges in the Twin Cities area by Francisco Jose Muñoz, author of the new 
bi-lingual field guide Birds of Nicaragua. The programs should reach local 
Spanish speakers, and increase appreciation for the linkages between some 
of our migrants and a small country in Central America. 

MOU members -- through their memberships and donations -- are 
responsible for our ability to support these projects. Please consider

Re: OpenStack Revenues Approaching $3.4B: 451 Research

2016-04-28 Thread Steve Wilson
I agree that CloudStack works and is great technology.  However, OpenStack won 
the marketing war because their foundation was set up to do so.  All attempts 
that Mark Hinkle and others made to pull together a real marketing alliance to 
promote CloudStack as an industry initiative seemed to run afoul of Apache 
rules/processes/organization.

This is an area where CloudStack could really do better.

The decision to turn over OpenStack to a foundation in 2012 stands in contrast 
to the CloudStack platform and its parent, Citrix. Citrix 
donated
 CloudStack to the Apache Software Foundation, but it was never set up with the 
same true, multi-stakeholder, stand-alone foundation as OpenStack's.

"If Citrix would have done a foundation around CloudStack, we would now be at a 
Cloudstack Summit, not OpenStack Summit," Sadowski said." Sadowski said.


The bold highlighted line was hurting a little bit!

Re: Redirection 301 create "Redirection loop" while using wordpress site.

2016-04-12 Thread Steve Wilson
It sounds to me like wordpress believes that www is required and nginx
doesn't want it. 

I'd try commenting out the redirect server{} block and add the
server_name to the xxx.com one and see what you end up with in your
browser, then have a look through the wordpress settings to see what
it's wanting in the address bar. 

For my wordpress there seems to be 2 options under Settings/General,
"Wordpress Address (URL)" and "Site Address (URL)".

[Elecraft] help with improving transmit eq

2016-02-02 Thread Steve Wilson via Elecraft
Hi all,
I have a newly acquired slightly used K3.  Feedback on my voice audio quality 
is that it sounds tinny with no low or mid range.  Unfortunately, the K3 manual 
really doesn't provide much guidance on how to adjust the transmit EQ other 
than the mechanics of what buttons to push.  If I need to increase the low and 
mid, does this mean I should increase the values of the first half of the 8 
settings and decrease the second half..or something similar?  It's been a while 
since I've dealt with audio equalizers.  I would appreciate any suggestions. 
Thanks, Steve  KG6HJU

Hi,

Thank you all so very much for your input. I have a lot to consider now.

What I have been doing when entering U.S. Federal Census data is to list each 
member of the household with the following information under the text section 
of the details page:  Relationship to Head of Household - , Age - , Occupation 
- , Marital Status - . Adding household staff will be easy to do this way 
without adding anyone to the family list.

Thanks again!

[LegacyUG] Household Staff on Census Forms

2016-01-13 Thread Steve Wilson
Hi,



I have a question about staff/servant that are listed as part of a household
on a census form.



I am looking at a 1910 United States Federal Census that has 2 people listed
as part of the household; a cook and a nurse. I do not include these people
as part of the household when entering census information. What do other
people do?



Thanks, Steve W.

[mou-net] Savaloja Grants Available

2015-12-06 Thread Steve Wilson
The deadline for applying for a Savaloja Grant from the MOU, Jan. 31, is 
fast approaching.   A record $15,000 is available for projects beginning in 
2016 that increase our understanding of birds, promote preservation of 
birds and their natural habitats, or increase public interest in birds, 
including in populations currently underrepresented in Minnesota's birding 
community.
In 2015 MOU awarded $12,800 through eight grants ranging from $400 to 
$2700. Projects included: Scholarships to Flying Wild workshops for 
educators working in urban low-income and minority areas; an owl-banding 
program at a nature center; binoculars for two urban nature centers; a 
nature center’s educational big birding day; a study of bird immune system 
defenses against nest parasites; a pilot program encouraging seniors in a 
low-income neighborhood to become involved in birding activities; and a 
program that uses birds as an integrating theme in teaching disparate 
subjects to elementary school students.

Application information can be found on the MOU web page 
(http://moumn.org/grants.html). Again, the deadline for receipt of grant 
applications is January 31, 2016. Grant recipients will be notified by April 1, 
2016.

When I add a USA based location for birth, death or marriage events I usually 
list the city, county, state and USA in the location field.
However my son married his wife in a small town in Alaska near Glacier Bay 
National Park that does not belong to any county. The town, Gustavus is a part 
of what is known as the "Hoonah-Angoon Census Area".

Of course when I enter that Legacy tells me no such county in Alaska exists.  
Would it still be appropriate to enter that in the County field or should it 
just be left blank?

Re: Http2 not getting enable

2015-10-03 Thread Steve Wilson
>From the limited testing I did when I enabled http2 on my sites, I found
that the few sites I used for testing were actually checking for spdy
and not http2/h2 as the next protocol.

I've had the spdy indicator plugin in chrome for a while which I believe
uses the chrome internals to check protocol usage, this was showing blue
(http2) rather than green (spdy) and clicking through to the diagnostics
page sure enough it was using http2.

Using the same tool I can see that www.onestopmarketing.club:443 is
using h2 protocol. Looking at the ssllabs test also shows h2 as a next
protocol too.

I suspect a lot of these "http2 test" site jumped on the bandwagon when
spdy was still the big thing, now http2 is becoming more common and
replacing spdy they need to catch up. It would be interesting to compare
a site they claim is http2 to see exactly which NPNs are available but
I've not felt like digging that deep yet.

Hopefully someone will know a site that does some real reporting for
this test which will become like ssllabs is for ssl checking.

Looking at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_HTTP_header_fields it
suggests it's a non-standard request header.

You can probably strip this out of the request to the real server with

proxy_set_header "Proxy-Connection" "";

Although I'd expect the backend server to ignore invalid request headers
rather than bork on the request.

I’ve tried the more_clear_headers from the ngx_headers_more module and

Re: nginx makes mysqld die all the time

2015-08-19 Thread Steve Wilson
It looks like your machine is running out of memory, again this is 
something I think I've dealt with in php-fpm by configuring it to 
recycle the child processes so they don't start consuming too much 
memory.


Here's my fpm pool config file:

[www]
user = www-data
group = www-data
listen = /var/run/php5-fpm.sock
listen.owner = nginx
listen.group = nginx
listen.mode = 0660
pm = dynamic
pm.max_children = 15
pm.start_servers = 3
pm.min_spare_servers = 2
pm.max_spare_servers = 3
pm.process_idle_timeout = 10s;
pm.max_requests = 10

Do not take this config as-is. I've a group of nginx+php-fpm servers 
running for wordpress and drupal (2 each) but your activity may be 
considerably higher than what I've got.


The key parts here are the pm. options so you'll probably want to 
investigate each setting and tune to your requirements.

}

and this is configuration for one of the wordpress sites, I only 
changed

the domain name. The configuration is due to the fact that, for several
reasons out of my control, I **must** run two fully independent 
wordpress

installations, but nested into each other, that is:

myblog.example.com/   (english blog, by wordpress installed in
$documentroot/myblog)
myblog.example.com/it (italian version, by separate wordpress
installed in $documentroot/myblog_it)

the above worked fine with apache. Can the equivalent config for
nginx be related to the problem I'm seeing? If yes, how, and how to
fix it? And while we are at this: advice on anything else I could 
optimize is

also very welcome of course, even if not related to the main problem.

Re: nginx makes mysqld die all the time

2015-08-18 Thread Steve Wilson

Hi,

When I migrated from apache+mod_php to nginx+php-fpm I found I had a few 
websites using persistent mysql connections which never closed. I had to 
disable this in the php.ini so all the sites fell back to using 
non-persistent connections.
I don't know if this will help as it was mysql not maria or other. I 
imagine there'll probably be something logged somewhere which needs a 
bit of time to find.

[mou-net] Savaloja Grants Awarded for 2015

2015-04-01 Thread Steve Wilson
At their March 16 meeting, the MOU Board awarded $12,800 in Savaloja 
grants, a record amount thanks to the generosity of MOU members and 
supporters who responded to last year’s Savaloja challenge match. The 
grants are named for Terry Savaloja, a respected Minnesota birder and TS 
Roberts Award recipient who died in 1992. Savaloja grants support projects 
that increase our understanding of birds, promote preservation of birds and 
their natural habitats, or increase public interest in birds.  This year’s 
grant 
recipients include eight diverse projects:

Audubon MN (St. Paul) received $1960 to provide scholarships to Flying 
Wild workshops for educators working in urban low-income and minority 
areas. The intent is to encourage the integration of bird education and 
conservation activities into the school curriculum in an engaging, 
successful, and academically purposeful manner. 

Carpenter Nature Center (Hastings) received $575 to support a northern 
saw-whet and long-eared owl banding program.

Harambee Elementary School (Maplewood) received $2580 for a program 
that uses birds as an integrating theme in teaching disparate disciplines. 
The grant will allow students to remain in the program for two consecutive 
grades (2nd and 3rd), rather than just the second grade, which was funded 
by a Savaloja grant last year. 

Hawk Ridge Bird Observatory (Duluth) was granted $625 to cover part of 
the stipend needed to hire a count trainee for this fall’s migration.

Interfaith Outreach and Community Partners (Plymouth) received $2690 
for a pilot program that will encourage seniors in a low-income 
neighborhood to become involved in birding activities. The program, which 
will provide binoculars and develop bird habitat near feeders and 
observation benches, is expected to reach up to 50 older adults. If this pilot 
program is successful, they’ll look to expand it to six additional 
neighborhoods.

Sarah Knutie (Hubbard + Clearwater Counties) was awarded $1600 to start 
long-term research on tree swallow and eastern bluebird behavioral and 
immune system defenses against nest parasites.  It’s an elegantly designed 
study promising to answer both basic and sophisticated questions in host-
parasite co-evolution and ecology, and more specifically host defenses. She 
will also create a bird-parasite education toolbox for use with local schools.

Three Rivers Park District (Minneapolis) received $2100 to purchase 28 
pairs of binoculars to facilitate birding activities for children and adults at 
two education centers: Kroening Interpretive Center in North Mississippi 
Regional Park in North Minneapolis, and West Coon Rapids Dam Visitor 
Center in Brooklyn Park. 

Wood Lake Nature Center (Richfield) received $400 to support their second 
annual Friends of Wood Lake Big Day Birdathon. As part of this fun, 
entertaining and educational family event, the grant will pay for a Raptor 
Center demonstration.

Savaloja Committee members Ann Kessen, Steve and Jo Blanich, Pam 
Perry, Mike North and Chuck Neil worked diligently, sifting through the 
dozen proposals received, to craft the above recommendations for the 
board. But it’s  MOU members who allow MOU to support these wonderful 
projects by stepping forward and donating. It’s not too early to build on, or 
join in, that tradition by sending a contribution for Savaloja grants to MOU 
now. 

Savaloja Grants, 2016--Individuals or organizations who are undertaking 
projects in Minnesota like those mentioned above may submit grant 
applications to the MOU for the 2016 grant cycle.  Application information 
may be obtained by emailing:  gra...@moumn.org, or visiting the MOU 
web page at http://moumn.org/grants.html.  The deadline for receipt of 
grant applications is January 31, 2016.

[mou-net] Boreal Owl Update

2015-03-24 Thread Steve Wilson
After a couple of hours trying to catch up with a boreal owl on the south 
side of Bog Lake (Lake County, BWCA) Saturday night, it finally stayed in 
one place long enough for Norma Malinowski and I to watch it singing from 
a large white spruce. A little while later we found it singing from a cavity in 
a dead aspen. If it’s successful in attracting a female, this could become a 
nesting cavity, although that’s not a given because males usually have 
multiple cavities in their home ranges where they alternate singing, anyone 
of which could become the nest tree. Unfortunately, the access to this bird 
is not easy. It requires hiking most of the way (~3/4 mile) into Bog Lake 
on the portage, and then up to a 1/2-mile cross-country hike east, 
depending upon where in its territory the bird is (hopefully) singing, 
through dense forest and difficult terrain. Neither of the other boreal owls 
heard last week were heard last night. I posted a recording of this bird to 
the MOU Audio page (http://moumn.org/cgi-bin/audio.pl), which hopefully 
will become functional before too long.

[mou-rba] [mou-net] Singing Boreal Owls

2015-03-20 Thread Steve Wilson
Two  nights ago I located three singing boreal owls in northern Lake 
County, the first time I've heard that many in one night in many years. 
Unfortunately, none could be relocated last night, but  they are likely on 
territories and will sing again in the next few weeks. One was located about 
3/4 mile or so SE of the Isabella Lake parking lot. Another was singing 
from just south of Bog Lake. By far the most accessible of the three was 
singing from just north of the Tomahawk Road (FR173) at a point 4.8 miles 
east of Hwy 1. However it's song territory extends north from there, so 
even if it is singing, you won't necessarily find it close to the road. If 
anyone does check for these birds, I'd appreciate hearing what you find, 
even if it's that the birds weren't heard.

Re: query about 4.4 usage

2015-02-11 Thread Steve Wilson
Just as a data point, at Citrix we actually decided to skip 4.4 and didn¹t
put out a commercial distribution based on it.  We put all our energy into
fixing bugs that went into 4.5.  We¹re now bringing up large customers on
4.5, but too early to publish results.  Overall, though, I feel good about
4.5 quality.

On 2/11/15, 9:53 AM, Daan Hoogland daan.hoogl...@gmail.com wrote:

H,

Today we had a talk at work (Schuberg Philis) about our CloudStack
strategy. We decided that we will keep at 4.4 until we have a good
test environment of our own and then skip to 4.6 or up, depending on
where we merge our redundant vpc work in. We don't have any time to
put energy in 4.5 and need some features that won't make it there. The
afore mentioned redundant vpcs, but also ipv6 for vpcs and ovm
support.

What I am wondering now is:
Who else is on 4.4 in production systems?
What versions do you run?
How did you test it before going to production?
What are your migration plans?

Re: Will this work, is it the best way?

2015-01-31 Thread Steve Wilson
To add a bit more information.

Server1 is hosted, has both IPv4 and 6.
Server2 is on the end of an adsl line within a RFC1918 network where the
external port 80 points to another server which cannot be changed.
Another complication is that internet access from some client locations
is heavily restricted, so using an alternative port may not work.
The LAN has full IPv6 capability and there's some video streaming done
on server2 so direct LAN access is preferred.

I managed to get it working with the below config on server2.

server {
listen [::]:80;
server_name ~^(?subdomain\w+)\.example\.com$;
set $upstream http://$subdomain;;
location / {
proxy_set_header Host   $host;
proxy_pass $upstream;
}
}
upstream netflow {
server 127.0.0.1:8080;
}
upstream ntop {
server 127.0.0.1:3000;
}
upstream wifi {
server 127.0.0.1:8443;
}

I was initially tripped up by the proxy_pass line, I did not get the
desired effect when using 'proxy_pass http://$subdomain;'

 Hello Steve,

 • Best answer is try and see if it meets your expectations; thanks

 • While reading your snippet, my initial questions are — Why 2
 servers? Why not simplify?

 • In your proposal: server1, listen to ?? TCP port(s) on public IPv4,
 and IPv6 to proxy_pass to server2, then server2 listen
 on public IPv6, and IPv4 to proxy_pass to subdomain, with upstream
 (perhaps for load balance and/or failover?) — As you agree, this is
 slightly complicated

 • Why not simplify? — Reconfigure DNS for cname-server1 to
 server2, for IPv4 and IPv6

 • In your snippet, server2 supports IPv4 and IPv6 if you expect it to
 upstream via private IPv4 127.0.0.1:[…]

 • I don't fully understand why server2 upstream isn't IPv6 ::1:[…]
 considering your primary intent for server2 is IPv6 usage

 • Perhaps you meant upstream localhost:[…] to try both IPv4 and IPv6?
 Thanks

 Hi,

 Slightly complicated setup with 2 nginx servers.

 server1 has a public ipv4 address using proxy_pass to server2 over
 ipv6 which only has a public ipv6, this then has various upstreams
 for each subdomain.

 ipv6 capable browsers connect directly to server2, those with only
 ipv4 will connect via server1.

 I'm currently considering something like the below config.


 server1 - proxy all subdomain requests to upstream ipv6 server:

 http {
  server_name *.example.com http://example.com;
  location / {
   proxy_pass http://fe80::1337;
  }
 }

 server2:

 http {
  server_name ~^(?subdomain\w+)\.example\.com$;
  location / {
   proxy_pass http://$subdomain
  }

  upstream subdomain1 {
   server 127.0.0.1:1234 http://127.0.0.1:1234;
  }
 }

 The theory here is that each subdomain and upstream would match,
 meaning that when adding another upstream it would just need the
 upstream{} block configuring and automatically work.

 I realise there's dns stuff etc but that's out of scope for this
 list and I can deal with that.

 Does this seem sound? It's not going to see major usage but
 hopefully this will reduce work when adding new upstreams.

 If you've a better way to achieve this please let me know.

 Steve.
