I have trouble getting IPv6 with my OpenBSD router through my provider. With
an AVM router I was able to get it but not with OpenBSD, so I asked my provider:
My question:
Ist die IPv6 implementierung die M-net benutzt irgendwo beschrieben? Seit ich
meinen router ausgetauscht habe bekomme ich kein IPv6 mehr und will mich da
reinarbeiten.
ISP's answer:
An Ihrem Anschluss wird noch eine IPv4 vergeben. Eine IPv6 ist offiziell nur mit
unseren neuen Vertr?gen m?glich.
Sie k?nnen allerdings nach dem Benutzernamen das @v6.mnet-online.de hinzuf?gt.
Bitte beachten Sie, dass wir zu dieser M?glichkeit keinen Support anbieten
k?nnen. Hierbei handelt es sich um das damalige IPv6 Testsystem. Auch muss Ihr
Router IPv6 f?hig sein.
My second attempt
Ja das ist es. Nur es spricht nicht v6 ?ber das PPPoE. K?nnen Sie mir sagen
welches protokoll benutzt wird um die IPv6 configuration auszutauschen? Welche
standarden oder protokolle die in RFC's stehen benutzt werden?
ISP's answer:
IPv6 ist das Protokoll. Ein IPv6 f?higer Router sollte mit dem genannten Zusatz,
die Verbindung aufbauen k?nnen. Wie bereits mitgeteilt, k?nnen wir hierf?r
keinen Support geben oder Informationen zur internen Infrastruktur.
Sorry for the german, there is no translation. This conversation was akin to
talking to a dead doorknob anyhow. What happened to RFC slinging technologists? They are not at my ISP unfortunately!

I have ordered:

I'm hoping to get more insights in these two databases.

How should we punish aggressors?
March 2nd, 2014
As I don't like politics too much I'll keep it short. Currently Ukraine
is in crisis. It is my opinion that Russia is an aggressor. In my view
the only way to de-conflict this is to put UN policing in Crimea. Preferably
from South America as Russia would not want a NATO country that close probably.
I fear we may see the second iron curtain fall. And this shifts the ordering
of the world once more. If the European Union protests by buying less
natural gas it puts pressure on Russia. But we'd be screwed in Germany with
our Energiewende ideal. Less natural gas would mean the nuclear power plants
may live longer than we wanted. Keep thinking of Chernobyl though! It's a
giant risk! And we should speed up the Energiewende at once, in order to have
better odds down the road.
I will think of the Ukraine and give hope. Hope for a resolution! At the same
time I hope for being worry free from war, we don't need war in Europe again!
Peace!

First of March
March 1st, 2014
While officially still winter until the 20th, March here in Germany will
bring us spring weather soon. I already exchanged winter coat for spring
jacket last week. Is this a winter to remember? We had 2 snow days this
winter season! I don't know and I think I'll forget about this winter
next winter. Hopeing for a bit of snow. I'm attaching my 4 seasons
picture I made a few years ago.

Win for the Consumer in Germany
February 25th, 2014
Consumers who have been locked in by their ISP to use a certain router don't
have to comply to this anymore. Apparently the Bundesnetzagentur has made it
law starting today that "Routerzwang" is not legal anymore. This is a win for the consumer in my eyes. Those
ISP's that don't give up access data to their users are making themselves
liable to be sued.

Upgraded my FritzBox Repeater 300E
February 20th, 2014
AVM the manufacturer of routers and networking gear has provided a fix on
most of its products against a root-exploit. My AVM Repeater 300E was also
affected so I flashed its firmware. It took me 30 minutes after that trying
to figure out why my network didn't work anymore. Turns out that the upgrade
changed the MAC address of the repeater and network nodes behind it and I
used static permanent ARP on my OpenBSD router. Hence nothing worked until
I deleted the arp entry and updated it with a new one.

My Apartment: Year 1
February 19th, 2014
On February 13th, 2013 I moved in here.
I don't regret moving here at all. It's a nice place. The setup that you see
in the photo is pretty well what it is now, sans the G4 Cube which has been
donated to the OpenBSD Project. Anyhow...

New Computer, the decision factor
February 18th, 2014
In 2 months I'm buying a new computer. I plan on gathering a list on what
I want and then ask a computer store to put it together for me. That's how
I did Jupiter (computer) last. This new computer will be named Mercury.
So far I have gathered these links:
Now this selection leaves a few questions. I know the Xeon is more powerful
than the Core i7, and I don't need a graphics chip so I'll probably go with a
Xeon. But is this CPU compatible with the SABERTOOTH mainboard I do not know.
I've found a site that says they work together but that some functionality of
the Xeon don't work. My question is.. would that make it more unstable? As
far as storage and video card is concerned; I'll be reusing my SSD from
Jupiter and also the graphics card, although when these people build my new
Mercury I'll ask them to put an AMD/ATI card in there.
Mercury will be running the OpenBSD Operating System natively just like
Jupiter did. I'm gonna try to put 32 GB of RAM in there. Jupiter only had
8 GB. Well here's to planning this computer. OBTW if I didn't get OpenBSD
on the thing I'd try Linux or buy a Mac.

OpenSMTPD on FreeBSD with SpamAssassin
February 15th, 2014
Today the spam got to me in such a way that I wanted to try out a spam filter.
I decided to work with spamassassin because I've never tried it before.
SpamAssassin is a perl script that uses Bayesian filters to mark/tag a mail
as spam when a certain score is reached.
So what I did was first bring my FreeBSD's mail jail up to speed. A
portupgrade -af put everything installed from /usr/ports to the latest
version.
Next I installed /usr/ports/mail/p5-Mail-SpamAssassin, I selected to not
run as root which was recommended for some reason. Then I played a bit
with amavisd and couldn't figure it out. Next I tried spampd which uses
spamassassin and it worked right away. With a few tests I installed a new
opensmtpd (which isn't the latest in the ports, I compiled it from an old
snapshot, beware) configuration file and I'll share it with you:
listen on 10.3.2.1 port 25 tls certificate mail.solarscale.de auth-optional
listen on 2a01:4f8:d13:1980::25 port 25 tls certificate mail.solarscale.de auth-optional
listen on 127.0.0.1 port 10025 tag DESPAMMED
table aliases db:/usr/local/etc/aliases.db
table users db:/usr/local/etc/smtpusers.db
max-message-size 90000000
accept tagged DESPAMMED for domain "centroid.eu" virtual deliver to mbox
accept tagged DESPAMMED for domain "galileo.solarscale.de" virtual deliver to mbox
accept tagged DESPAMMED for domain "solarscale.de" virtual deliver to mbox
accept tagged DESPAMMED for domain "io.solarscale.de" virtual deliver to mbox
accept tagged DESPAMMED for domain "amdeutschhof.de" virtual deliver to mbox
accept tagged DESPAMMED for domain "virgostar.net" virtual deliver to mbox
accept for local alias deliver to mbox
# domains in order
accept from any for domain "galileo.solarscale.de" alias relay via smtp://127.0.0.1:10024
accept from any for domain "centroid.eu" virtual relay via smtp://127.0.0.1:10024
accept from any for domain "solarscale.de" virtual relay via smtp://127.0.0.1:10024
accept from any for domain "io.solarscale.de" virtual relay via smtp://127.0.0.1:10024
accept from any for domain "amdeutschhof.de" virtual relay via smtp://127.0.0.1:10024
accept from any for domain "virgostar.net" virtual relay via smtp://127.0.0.1:10024
accept for any relay
And then in spampd I had the following config as read from /etc/rc.conf
spampd_enable="YES"
spampd_flags="--user=spamd --group=spamd --host 127.0.0.1:10024 \
--relayhost=127.0.0.1:10025 --dose --tagall --auto-whitelist"
That was all I had to do. I've run a thousand test mails and have watched
mail come in, the highest score I got was 3.4 out of 5.0, so not quite spam.
But i'm sure I'll get a spam mail one of these days...
