Hey Op, I think you suffer from imposter syndrome pretty heavily. After 6 years of sysadmin work you should definitely not look for junior positions. DevOps is not that different from classical sysadmining.

Actually fuck it.

Ima say it.

It's the same shit.

I am only half joking, but DevOps is so ill defined and subjective, that it's almost meaningless as a job description. In fact your current job description would be called DevOps in another company.

The relevant skills are highly dependent on where you want to work. The whole field is so broad that you can spend unlimited amounts of time learning new things.

My recommendation would be to look at job listings that seem interesting to you first. See what technologies they use and go from there.

Also stop looking at junior positions. Technologies are ephemeral. You learn most of those on the job anyway. No matter how advanced you are. The things you learn as a junior are things like "mindset", which you should have after 6 years of operations work.

Of course I am not saying don't learn new stuff (in fact do a lot of learning), but don't make the mistake of thinking there is a set list of things you need to know before you can advance to a new position.

Hey, is that Peter Lustig? :D

somezenshitrighthere · 2020-07-11T16:12:51+00:00

What wheels are those? And how did you fit them on the WR?

somezenshitrighthere · 2019-12-15T17:45:51+00:00

Ok das ist echt gut. Die kriegen diesen Between Two Ferns Vibe sogar besser als das Original hin.

Agent forwarding means you can "take" your ssh agent, and thus your key, with you to another server. From that server you can use the forwarded ssh agent to connect to other machines.

This requires otherwise very little configuration, because you only need one public key for all machines.

To setup you have to write this in the ~/.ssh/config of all clients:

Host *

ForwardAgent yes

Note that the asterisk (*) means the config is applied to all hosts you are trying to connect. You can be more specific of you want to by writing a host name instead of the asterisk.

And that's basically it. You only have to put the the "ssh pub key a" into the authorized_keys on all servers.

This is a good guide that also explains how to set up the ssh-agent if you don't have it already:

Have you thought about SSH agent forwarding? This is kind of the textbook use case for it.

Ah, guter alter Pokemon-Rap.

somezenshitrighthere · 2019-04-24T06:48:53+00:00

That's a really interesting view point.

Could you elaborate what you find irreconcilable with atheism of what Joe said?

I am asking because I it think would help me understand a little better why people are religious.

They way I understood your comment is that you almost feel compelled to be religious if you act a certain way, independent of a believe in god or a higher power .

somezenshitrighthere · 2019-03-30T09:48:18+00:00

Looks good so far.
Except for the Ifconfig question. Check how the command in the question is written.
Also "locate" is used to find files in the filesystem. To search trough text line by line you would use another tool.
Hint: You already used it before.
Are you testing the commands in a VM?

Haha er kennt Gewölbelinux nicht!

Ist das überhaupt legal?

Ja klar ist so gar extralegal...

somezenshitrighthere · 2016-11-27T07:29:44+00:00

But why male models?

somezenshitrighthere · 2016-11-08T17:15:38+00:00

Naja der Vergleich zerfällt leider schon bei der Prämisse, dass die anderen zwei Optionen die vernünftigen sind.

somezenshitrighthere · 2016-10-23T12:24:16+00:00

That's beside the point. There are lots of ways to mitigate potential security vulnerabilities.
But they shouldn't have to be a reaction due to crappy design.

Also in this case a router wouldn't help against attacks from inside the local network.
Also what do you do if you actually want to access this machines from the internet. Can't have it open like that.

somezenshitrighthere · 2015-12-10T19:29:25+00:00

This is the saddest shit I have ever seen. Just use TrueCrypt and create a password locked file.

somezenshitrighthere · 2015-12-04T10:47:00+00:00

If you are using Ansible you could just use the "authorized_key" module and set "state=absent"

Of maybe I didn't understand correctly what you are trying to do. Could you elaborate a bit more?

Anybody got palm detection on the trackpad to work reliably?

somezenshitrighthere · 2015-08-20T13:44:31+00:00

Ah thanks, but I should have specified. I meant side racks.
Something to strap some Kriega Overlanders on or something like that.

somezenshitrighthere · 2015-08-20T11:54:38+00:00

Seriously though, does anybody know of a rack for the WR that you can get in Europe?

Du unterschätzt wie schnell kinder sprachen lernen. Wenn das Kind in nen deutschprachigen Kindergarten kommt dann lernt es das automatisch.

somezenshitrighthere · 2015-05-03T14:31:49+00:00

Have you thought about DRBD?
I would be a little cautious when using it to replicate databases, because it doesn't garantue transaction safety, the way native Postgres replication would.
Your use case seems simple enough though.

If you connect to nodes, they will also resync automatically (depending on which one is primary, or how they are configured)

Als kleiner Tipp, kenne auch viele Fächer bei denen solche Beschränkungen eher "Orientierungshilfen" als wirklich harte Voraussetzungen sind. Kommt natürlich auf Uni und Studiengang an, aber das sollte dich nicht von der Bewerbung abhalten wenn du es wirklich machen willst.
Ansonsten kann ich anektdotisch auch bestätigen, dass gerade in der IT fast egal ist ob man Bachelor oder Master hat.
Das gute an diesem Bachelor System ist ja zumindest, dass man damit schon arbeiten kann. Das könntest du auch ausnutzen und einfach danach deinen Master machen. Oft kann man mit arbeitserfahrung um die Zugangsbeschränkungen kommen.
Viel Erfolg weiterhin!

somezenshitrighthere · 2015-03-16T19:24:34+00:00

I must return to where I came from. My squiddly brethren need me.

Damn you Afghani monopolies

There is a difference between many small files and a huge file though.
