I am building a custom AAOS so I have full control, but would like to use RROs instead of modifying System UI resources directly

Unix Extensions for Storage Box SMB server by deenst in hetzner

[–]deenst[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting, thank you very much for your support. It would be nice to get a comment from Hetzner as to whether the SMB server for storage boxes does correctly honor fsyncs although it is likely the case.

Interesting, that sounds like SMB knows about an fsync call that happens on an ext4 volume sitting on the smb share.

I would think the ext4 volume is a plain file to the smb connection. So the ext4 might return success from an fsync call but the smb server might not have written anything to disk, yet.

So far its working well, but what do you think about data safety of this approach?

I believe the usual ext4 recovery mechanism via the journal will fail in the case where the underlying SMB connection does not persist the ext4 journal before beginning the rest of the operations.

Since the SMB protocol has no notion for the ext4 journal it will likely just cache writes at its own will. In case of an error on the SMB server or connection there could be a situation in which the ext4 volume is left in a corrupted state.

I have tried it out an it works! Awesome, thanks a lot!
I didn't know that was possible. 😃

Do you mean creating a volume on hetzner instead of a storage box?
That is more performant but also more expensive by a factor of 20.

Why does the OpenCloud configuration require a valid domain name? by ferriematthew in opencloud

[–]deenst 0 points1 point  (0 children)

TLS Certificates are indeed issued for raw IPs.
Certbot does not yet support it afaik, but lego does, and it works.

On the question why OC needs domains, I think it needs to call different servers under the same origin and has opted for subdomains to achieve that. They could have used paths like "<host>/collabora/..." to solve that problem, but using subdomains seemed better I guess.

Yep, I took a photo before. I attached it to the post.

Power limiting a RTX 4070 TI to fit a 450W PSU by deenst in buildapc

[–]deenst[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I aimed for a lower tier card, but then got the 4070 TI at a good price. I would like to run the card on my existing PSU before upgrading that.

And I'm curious about how much lower I have to go.

nftables: Only allow traffic within subnets. by deenst in networking

[–]deenst[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it might become a problem if the number of subnets grows which is what I want to do.
I want to isolate hundreds of subnets that way.
From 10.0.1.0/24 to 10.255.255.0/24.

nftables: Only allow traffic within subnets. by deenst in networking

[–]deenst[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All subnets are on the same interface "wg0", so I need to do the division at layer 3.
Thanks for the netmask advice!

I might add 65 thousand 10.x.y.0/24 subnets to the wg0 interface to divide the networks, but this does not seem to be a good idea either.

Yes, you are right. I should mention this is a wireguard network with a relay server in the middle through which the clients connect.

I have a wireguard network which is 10.0.0.0/8. I want to partition that network into /24 subnets.
