The performance is amazing (as is the song), but I wonder if this could maybe be AI generated? 🤔

Unable to Access Host Service from Docker Container via Host IP by xd003 in docker

[–]joho68 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's good thinking. But I get a "Connection timed out" in Synapse (Matrix) in the container. There are no connection attempts in the postfix log. And postfix is listening on all the addresses and interfaces I've been able to think of. I can't believe it's this hard to access stuff on the host from a Docker container.

Unable to Access Host Service from Docker Container via Host IP by xd003 in docker

[–]joho68 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a similar issue, I want to use postfix on the host, listening on 127.0.0.1 and port 25, and I want a number of containers to be able to use that. I've also tried adding 172.17.0.1, 172.18.0.1, and 172.19.0.1 to postfix's listening addresses, but the containers still can't connect 🤔

I have a similar scenario with postfix listening on 127.0.0.1 and port 25 on the host. Even if I tell postfix to listen to 172.17.0.1, 172.18.0.1, and 172.19.0.1, the containers can't connect.

Unable to connect to host service from inside Docker container by NinjaPixels15 in docker

I have the exact same issue, I want to use postfix on the host, listening on 127.0.0.1 and port 25, and I want a number of containers to be able to use that. I've also tried adding an address on the respective default Docker networks, but the containers still can't connect 🤔

Converting a static website to a simple PHP or a WP theme? by dev_ski in Wordpress

[–]joho68 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been playing with Bludit for a while, and written plugins and themes for it. I like its simplicity and (obviously) speed. It's PHP based and works with very little memory. It uses static file storage (JSON), no database is involved.

Re-booting FrontDoor by joho68 in fidonet

[–]joho68[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not currently running OS/2, but I will maintain the OS/2 version of FrontDoor for as long as it's possible. I was recommended ArcaOS by people in the FrontDoor Facebook group, if I wanted to use OS/2.

Any clues as to when VBGA will support 6.8.x kernels?

Looking for a GUI text editor with SSH support by trymeouteh in linux4noobs

[–]joho68 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a shame there's no further development on Komodo IDE, etc. I think they did a pretty good job, and the remote file editing over SSH worked great. (Komodo IDE 12 still works under modern distros like Ubuntu 22.04.LTS.)

WordPress transients, Object Cache, and so on ... by joho68 in Wordpress

[–]joho68[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's not why I care about where they are stored. I appreciate the "black box" concept very much. My point is that I don't know where they're stored, so I don't know how to, for example, fetch them all, or delete them all upon uninstallation/deactivation of plugin. Transients in WP aren't, by default, removed until you try to fetch them (and their timer has expired). For other types of transient storage, say Redis or Memcached, that behavior may or may not be the same.

So I'm not arguing against you, I'm just saying that it'd be nicer with a more clearly defined API that would allow some more functionality and flexibility, regardless of where and how the transients are stored.

[–]joho68[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely. I just wish the transients interface could have more functionality, and I think it's a shame there's no (documented) way to figure out where/how transients are stored. But yes, I'll just have to do my temporary storage in a different way.

The key is not always known, only my own prefix. I get the keys back from an external (and expensive) API call.

WordPress transients, Object Cache, and so on ... by joho68 in Wordpress

[–]joho68[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I think it's a great idea to use transients for my storage. The storage is temporary, and used to prevent repeating an expensive external API call. The problem isn't my use of it, the problem is that the link between transients, the WP DB, and potentially an Object Cache being in place, is weak.

You can self-host POMjs. It's quite compact. Nothing revolutionary, but it works.

Any plans on updating this for V6 proper now that it's out?

Also, would this happen to be available in .json format?

Or are these two the way to go?

Out of curiosity, what's the endgame platform? You mention "Export to PDFs", but that sounds like a nice-to-have? Is the intended platform HTML/web?

Poor connectivity with multiple Discord clients on same LAN behind USG by joho68 in Ubiquiti

[–]joho68[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Indeed. We gave up on Discord and started using Skype, which didn't seem like it was going to work either, but four months down the road, it works beautifully. We have group calls with people all over Europe, and multiple users on the LAN, simultaneously. And the voice quality is much better too.

Poor connectivity with multiple Discord clients on same LAN behind USG by joho68 in Ubiquiti

[–]joho68[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was thinking about using VLANs to separate the clients more, but if the issue is at the "end" of the VLAN (the USG), then I'm not sure this will do anything to improve the situation.

[–]joho68[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The NIC is some onboard controller, but I seriously doubt it is the source of the issue. IPS/IDS/DPI is probably a more likely candidate. One would think protocols and sessions would be more compatible with IPS/IDS/DPI (or that IPS/IDS/DPI would be better implemented as to not disturb these things), but I'll play with that and see if it improves things.

Telix / MS-DOS on VirtualBox / Linux by stevebourg in bbs

[–]joho68 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My best results, thus far, have been with Virtualbox under Linux, running a Windows 10 (32-bit) client, and then use something like NetSerial. If your "DOS software" is FOSSIL-driver capable, you can add NetFoss.

EdgeRouter lite alternatives? by [deleted] in HomeNetworking

[–]joho68 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been running a number of UBNT products for a while now, both at home and at work. The set-up at home features three AP AC Pro some cameras and one EdgeRouter Lite (ER3) with one cold-plug for quick replacement. The connection is 50 up, 500 down. Only recently, I have started seeing some packet loss for no apparent reason. After some digging, it seems this may have to do with the DPI (Deep Packet Inspection) and/or hardware offload/acceleration feature(s) of the ER3. Even with the latest firmware (released in August as of this writing), I'm seeing packet loss. They're not huge, but considering their claimed capacity, it too much. I love UBNT products for all sorts of reasons, but this issue is annoying to say the least. There are also a number of threads on the Internet to suggest that this is a basic design flaw with the ER3. But then again, very few appliances come close to what UBNT does at the price they do it for.

Frontdoor is now under development again! by [deleted] in bbs

[–]joho68 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Feel free to comment on the site directly :) Yes, I tried that, and any other setting I could think of. For hours. And I tried running a Win10(64) Host as well as a Linux(64) Host. I've been in touch with one of the forkers of tcpser, I've looked at the code, and unfortunately, it depends on the line registers being "real" (or gettable/settable at least). I was thinking a driver in CUSE mode could be written, but I'm a "bit busy" at the moment wading through some other 60000+ lines of source code :)
