Re: Full disk encryption by auto install

I'm sorry but I already reached the 2014 thread of the misc archives and have not found any discussion of this. Not sure we have the same definition of "recently" in this case :) Maybe Dekker or somebody can share the thread subject and I'll go from there. Otherwise, I'm open to further advise on

Ripping CDs and DVDs

Hi, In preparation for my retirement in 2050, I am setting up a media server for all my DVDs and CDs. For ripping CD's, I was planning to use abcde as follows: abcde -q high -o mp3 For DVD's, I was thinking of stuff (thanks to Christian "naddy" Weisberger) like mplayer -dumpstream -dumpfile

How to analyse excessive PF states?

We have a firewall with OpenBSD 6.0 amd64 that handles about 1.5 Gbps of traffic. I noticed that from a few weeks the number of states is increased from around 250.000 to almost 2 millions (no change in PF config)! At the same time the firewall started loosing a few packets (around 1-2%,

Re: 2 files, same name, same dir

I can probably blame it on the Joe editor, which leaves trailing spaces on lines in files too. I wrote a program once to strip them off, probably doesn't bother anybody else. When you save a file it prompts with a (previous) filename with the cursor at the end, bumping the spacebar then would do

2 files, same name, same dir

This is in 5.7 but I don't understand how it could happen (and I never noticed it before). Two files in the same directory with the same name, different owners. Last night I was noticing that my edits to my program sometimes weren't taking effect, this seems to be why. Ideas? I can delete the

Correct shebang for Python 3

Hi everyone, I wrote a script which may end up as part of a package on various Linux and BSD flavors, and I have hit the problem of getting the shebang working everywhere. You might know that Python is installed in different locations, with the binary having different names (for example python

This isn't expected to work at all. That is why it was disabled. You'll need to upgrade the Hypervisor to -current, or to 6.1 when it is released. On 2016 Oct 22 (Sat) at 00:06:08 -0200 (-0200), R0me0 *** wrote: :Hello misc. : :For testing purposes : :I compiled kernel with vmd support. :
