Bundestag Petition: Keine Indizierung und Sperrung von Internetseiten

Contributed by belenus on Thu Jun 18 21:51:24 2009 (GMT) from the dept. Hat zwar nichts mit OpenBSD zu tun... aber dennoch möchte ich an dieser Stelle auf folgende Petition für den Bundestag hinweisen, denn wer gegen Zensur (im Internet) und Willkür ist wird sich sicherlich daran beteiligen wollen: https://epetitionen.bundestag.de/index.php?action=petition;sa=details;petition=3860 Update (2009-06-18): Wie nicht anders zu erwarten war... die Zensur des Internets wird eingeführt. Wirklich traurig das wir so ignorante und unfähige Leute da ganz oben sitzen haben die das Volk wieder mal mit Füßen treten. Als letzter Hoffnungsschimmer zur Rettung bleibt mal wieder nur das Bundesverfassungsgericht.

OpenBSD 4.1 bnx TCP offload patch

Contributed by belenus on Thu Sep 6 08:29:46 2007 (GMT) from the dept. The TCP offload of bnx NICs like they are build inside Dell PE 2950 servers isn't working correctly in OpenBSD 4.1 and maybe earlier versions. This results in PF rdr (-> spamd) and modulate state not working. Even though the TCP offload functionality can be disabled at jumper 21 on the Dell PE2950 serverboard you can also use the following patch between the 4.1-release and -current as of 2007/09/05 (and recompile the kernel) if you do not have direct hardware access. 41_bnx_tcp-offload.patch

New URL and scripts updated

Contributed by belenus on Mon Jul 16 17:52:49 2007 (GMT) from the dept. I moved the page from lechtermann.net to openbsd.lechtermann.net so I can put some other stuff to lechtermann.net too. While migrating stuff to the new server I also updated the undeadly.org scripts from version 1.36 to 1.44 which now allows user registration and password changes.

vnconfig -K article delayed

Contributed by belenus on Tue Jul 17 20:20:03 2007 (GMT) from the scripting dept. The article about disc encryption with vnconfig -K using hotplugd will be delayed until the release of OpenBSD 4.1 because of some improvements to vnconfig which should allow to simplify the scripts. The scripts for hotplugd will receive a small update too.
