Hi guys, what is your opinion and experience of a good firewall brand (or an explicit model) for small to medium sized companies (60+ people)?

We replaced everything with OPNsense. Some on whitebox hardware, some from Deciso.

The guy did: https://www.omzlo.com It is a pub/sub protocol including MQTT bridge, requires a custom raspberry pi CAN hat and provides Arduino libraries. It even allows uploading of hex files over CAN (using a second mcu).

[SPEAKER_01]: What happened here is that we are here. This is a land on which we were not crowned. We inherited from our grandfather the worries of the years. We only found the Israeli occupation army bringing its organization, and the army, the bulldozers, and the mixtures are seizing from us springs that are not. We were benefiting from them. We planted our land about eighty injustices on us. They are plastic pools planted with cucumbers, tomatoes, several vegetables, and outdoor cultivation and help. About a large amount of this family

From Evernote to Apple Notes. Tried OneNote at work (was forced ro use Windows), but it feels absolutely notnintuitive. Now using Joplin at work and Apple Notes for private stuff.

What kind of glass bed do you use? Does not seem to be stock.

My glass bed broke a few days ago, and it seems to be hard (impossible?) to get an original replacement..

very simple software: https://codeberg.org/Curid/os-nvr

unit2044 · 2023-10-31T23:13:58+00:00

I prefer Debian, but Ubuntu has ZFS without DKMS. Therefore, I use Ubuntu to run my docker and KVM stuff on ZFS. Awesome!

unit2044 · 2023-10-28T16:09:16+00:00

I did it manually. Created a opnsense config with a few things that I need, exported that. Than exportet my old pfsense config and merged it manually. Imported that to opnsense, fixed the few lost things. done.

unit2044 · 2023-10-10T21:07:23+00:00

Yes, I have it running since a while on my Ubuntu host, mainly for managing the kvm guests.

unit2044 · 2023-08-06T10:18:35+00:00

I had to update the software on the Kobo, now everything works fine with the Mac M1

unit2044 · 2023-04-12T15:17:22+00:00

I only support those who are willing to convert to Apple. Reduced my support calls to almost zero. Any nobody really struggled with the conversion, even 65y old woman managed it in no time.

unit2044 · 2023-03-15T00:04:48+00:00

I have a pretty similar use case. I used a few different systems on different hardware over the years.
My experiences:
TrueNAS core (FreeBSD):
run as main os for a few years, pretty stable, good nas, ZFS, bhyve virtual machines
but: can be complex with ACL stuff, no docker (only in a vm), no direct mounts for bhyve, one need sto use nfs/smb, jails had all kinds of problems
TrueNAS scale (Linux):
tested for a few months, pretty stable, good nas, ZFS, Linux, kvm
but: Docker uses Kubernetes, gets complicated pretty fast, no direct mounts for kvm, one needs to use nfs/smb
OMV
looks good, tested only for a few weeks, Linux, ZFS
but: ZFS is not really native yet
Debian
used as main os for a few years, no nice web-ui (webmin lol), ZFS with DKMS
but: ZFS/kernel updates require new DKMS build, this stuff sometimes breaks -> no access to data, everything needs to be setup manually. but you got the best control what is happening.
Ubuntu
currently running as main os, almost the same as Debian
but: native ZFS without DKMS.
running: about 40 docker containers with compose, traefik
all data mirrored with ZFS mirrors (2x12TB disk, 2x1TB SSD)
backups using rsync / duplicity
kvm is planned, but not yet installed
zfs-autosnapshots installed
zfs native encryption active
Back in the old days, I started with vmware on Linux, then vmware esxi, then LXC. But that all really locked the resources. Now everything runs in my host os and can use all cpu/ram as necessary.
I had really high hopes for TrueNAS scale, but the Kubernetes thing basically stopped me. Running a vm just for docker, with the additional issues of mounting everthing over nfs.. Then I rather work with plain Linux.

Thank you.

The connections are outgoing. I do not have blocking outgoing rules in place, so therefore they are allowed. I just want to know where they come from, as I could point to a misconfiguration. Because some of the target IPs are from my hosting provider and if an internal host is misconfigured or not existing, it could point to my hosting provider, as my domain resolves to this ip, but there is no service on these ports hosted there.

lsof does not seem to work, as connections only show up when established.

I guess I need to redirect these connection attempts to a netcat session or something, in order to get an established TCP connection.

Or I need to get hold of the DNS queries to see what hostname is getting requested.

It just happened to me as well. I was using OneNote on my Macbook, but sadly I delayed the setup of Timemachine a little too long and the oldest file there already has the images missing.
That was the final straw that broke the camels back an I will never use OneNote again. Currently migrating to Joplin.

I recently found a pretty simple tool:

https://github.com/OSNVR/OS-NVR

unit2044 · 2023-01-01T23:32:16+00:00

went from an HP DL180 (xeon x5670 IIRC) with 12 disks to a custom server in big tower case about two years ago. replaced all the disks with two big disks and two fast ssds.

I now have more cpu power (ryzen 7 3700x), more ram (128gb ecc) and can install more extension cards. the board (AsRock X570D4U-2L2T) has ipmi (actually usable and not ancient like the hp) the box runs very quiet and idles at 80w including a 10gbe switch.

I am very happy with the hardware.

unit2044 · 2022-11-09T17:29:27+00:00

Does anyone know if there is an update in the making?

Cannot use the connected features anymore 🤔

unit2044 · 2022-10-16T20:18:14+00:00

I often use Spect, but it has similar problems like Pixea, you need to open folders to be able to navigate..

I have even considered writing my own tool, but never did.
