[01:26] Techrights-sec If you are using new keys instead of hte old ones, can you confirm the

[01:26] Techrights-sec fingerprint of the ECDSA key which the SSH daemon is now using?

[01:26] Techrights-sec $ ssh-keygen -lf /etc/ssh/ssh_host_ecdsa_key.pub

[01:27] schestowitz-TR gm

[01:27] Techrights-sec gm thanks

[01:27] schestowitz-TR I think some perl modules are needed to get the gemini capsule updating, but have

[01:27] schestowitz-TR choked for time due to rss feeds etc

[01:28] Techrights-sec yes, I'll make a list

[01:28] schestowitz-TR waiting for irc+ipfs+bulletin time to catch bugs and correct them on the spot, yt

[01:28] schestowitz-TR then much needed sleep

[01:29] Techrights-sec can you add tmux?

[01:30] schestowitz-TR adding

[01:30] schestowitz-TR added

[01:33] Techrights-sec thanks

[01:33] schestowitz-TR at the moment agate runs sort of interactively from the CLI, I cannot quite recall how it was configured, but at least people get served (got some emails asking about gemini down)

[01:33] Techrights-sec liburi-perl - module to manipulate and access URI strings

[01:35] Techrights-sec libtime-parsedate-perl - collection of Perl modules for time/date manipulation

[01:35] Techrights-sec libpath-iterator-rule-perl - iterative, recursive file finder

[01:35] Techrights-sec libhtml-treebuilder-xpath-perl - Perl module to add XPath support to HTML::TreeBu

[01:35] Techrights-sec ilder

[01:35] Techrights-sec I think those are the only ones ^

[01:36] schestowitz The following NEW packages will be installed:

[01:36] schestowitz libauthen-sasl-perl libclone-perl libdata-dump-perl libencode-locale-perl libfile-listing-perl libfont-afm-perl libhtml-form-perl libhtml-format-perl libhtml-parser-perl libhtml-tagset-perl libhtml-tree-perl libhtml-treebuilder-xpath-perl libhttp-cookies-perl libhttp-daemon-perl libhttp-date-perl libhttp-message-perl

[01:36] schestowitz libwww-robotrules-perl libxml-xpathengine-perl perl-openssl-defaults

[01:37] Techrights-sec agate was run from a systemd unit file so whatevery CLI options need to be

[01:37] Techrights-sec included in that, it should go in /etc/systemd/system/agate.service

[01:37] Techrights-sec then systemctl enable agate.service ; systemctl start agate.service

[01:37] schestowitz-TR I tried to find that file, but after a while gave up

[01:38] schestowitz-TR perl stuff installed

[01:43] Techrights-sec thanks

[01:43] Techrights-sec there is also

[01:43] Techrights-sec libxml-feed-perl

[01:43] Techrights-sec libdate-calc-perl

[01:47] schestowitz-TR s

[01:48] Techrights-sec and that might be all of them

[01:48] Techrights-sec ok, I can make a new unit file, but what would you like on the CLI? Can you

[01:48] Techrights-sec paste the manual options?

[01:49] schestowitz-TR perl install at 95%

[01:49] schestowitz-TR regarding agate, I can give you the command I ran

[01:49] schestowitz-TR I realised they changed the syntax

[01:50] schestowitz also needs deploying (not rotating things yet) sudo service gemini-tcpdump-logger start

[01:53] schestowitz-TR perl done now

[01:53] schestowitz-TR apt-get actually timed out a bit towards the end, I had to rerun it

[01:53] Techrights-sec ok

[01:53] Techrights-sec ok

[01:54] schestowitz the command I ran:: /home/gemini/bin/agate.armv7-unknown-linux-gnueabihf --content /home/gemini/gemini/ --certs /home/gemini/certs/ --hostname gemini.techrights.org --lang en-GB

[01:56] Techrights-sec thanks

[01:57] Techrights-sec ok, ~/bin/ has agate.service it goes in /etc/systemd/system/

[01:57] Techrights-sec then stop the manually launched agate and try the enable, start, and status

● Jan 18

[02:02] Techrights-sec cp ~gemini/bin/agate.service /etc/systemd/system/

[02:02] Techrights-sec systemctl enable agate.service; systemctl start agate.service;

[02:10] schestowitz from root cron

[02:10] Techrights-sec which is used:

[02:10] Techrights-sec ./log_gemini_new.sh

[02:10] Techrights-sec ./tcpdump-logger.sh

[02:13] Techrights-sec cron is not necessary, afaik, systemd recovers if agate were to crash

[02:13] Techrights-sec or is that just for the logs?

[02:13] Techrights-sec gemini is now available!

[02:13] schestowitz-TR I saw it having an issue and gave it a kick

[02:14] schestowitz-TR there was a job running as root as a process, writing connections with addresses

[02:14] schestowitz-TR to a daily file under log and I think that's a missing piece

[02:16] Techrights-sec oops I see the status as failed now

[02:16] Techrights-sec chown?

[02:17] schestowitz-TR it went into a weird state

[02:19] Techrights-sec running in the window manually too see the possible errors

[02:19] *DaemonFC (~daemonfc@r3zgarhjgt6ha.irc) has joined #boycottnovell

[02:21] Techrights-sec there is some problem with at least one type of client in regards to TLS

[02:21] Techrights-sec in principle we should require TLS 1.3 or later, however 1.2 might have a long

[02:21] Techrights-sec tail.

[02:21] Techrights-sec 00 "TLS error" error:peer is incompatible: Server requires TLS1.3, but client omi

[02:21] Techrights-sec tted versions ext

[02:22] schestowitz-TR I noticed that when I first started the process i/o sort of hanged in there, unti

[02:22] schestowitz-TR l I press crtl+c

[02:23] schestowitz-TR I noticed that when I first started the process i/o sort of hanged in there, unti

[02:23] schestowitz-TR l I press crtl+c

[02:23] Techrights-sec Probably the wrong settings in the Unit file, it's esoteric and not clearly

[02:23] Techrights-sec documented so I had to guess.

[02:23] schestowitz-TR g --lang en-GB

[02:23] schestowitz-TR was what I ran

[02:24] Techrights-sec yes, that part is ok AFIAK the Unit file

[02:24] Techrights-sec has all kinds of weird options and they have to combine just right

[02:24] Techrights-sec try recopying now and the daemon-reload etc

[02:26] schestowitz-TR ok

[02:26] schestowitz-TR i think you aced it this time

[02:26] Techrights-sec systemctl daemon-reload

[02:26] Techrights-sec systemctl restart agate.service

[02:26] Techrights-sec I hope so, it's hard to do much more than cargo cult based on other unit files

[02:27] schestowitz-TR ibm did TWO articles about buying suppor rt this monday

[02:27] schestowitz-TR in redhat.com

[02:27] Techrights-sec yes the decommoditization of Linux

[02:28] schestowitz-TR let me focus for the next few mins on irc bulletin etc. ipfs follows at 3am

[02:30] schestowitz sudo /bin/systemctl restart gemini-tcpdump-logger.service

[02:30] schestowitz Failed to restart gemini-tcpdump-logger.service: Unit gemini-tcpdump-logger.service not found.

[02:32] Techrights-sec ok

[02:32] Techrights-sec yes the logging does not have a service file yet, but I see in

[02:32] Techrights-sec journalctl that there is already logging, it is "just" a matter of processing

[02:32] Techrights-sec and extracting

[02:40] Techrights-sec journalctl -u agate

[02:40] schestowitz-TR this one is different because it uses another source for the data

[02:48] schestowitz-TR so far the workflow has gone as expected, but let's see ipfs at 3am

[02:48] schestowitz-TR gemini is alomost perfect now

[02:48] schestowitz-TR just need the refresh cycles and stats, I think, and that's all done

[02:48] Techrights-sec ok logs on the way

[03:02] schestowitz-TR i see now

[03:02] schestowitz-TR tyhe logger we have uses tcpdump

[03:02] schestowitz-TR i think it is the latest version

[03:02] schestowitz-TR and that accomodates the file we need ro run the script that also updates the sta

[03:02] schestowitz-TR ts page, irc scrollback page etc

[03:02] schestowitz-TR it also ues the format that lets me see who hoards traffic

[03:03] Techrights-sec yes, checking

[03:12] schestowitz-TR I think tcp* is the one we used

[03:12] Techrights-sec yes that IPFS script goes in cron iirc

[03:15] schestowitz-TR at 3:32am, I will check it runs ok as it's easier to fix when done early

[03:18] *SomeH4x0r (~someh4xx@vbku88433t7ju.irc) has joined #boycottnovell

[03:36] schestowitz-TR it looks like you got the gemini cron running agsin

[03:36] schestowitz-TR the files did get copied over at 3:32, but I am not sure poermiissions are

[03:36] schestowitz-TR correct or rather file ownershi

[03:36] schestowitz-TR I will check tomorroe

[03:36] schestowitz-TR very tired

[03:36] Techrights-sec I haven't looked at cron yet, the logs are probably in root's cron.

[03:36] Techrights-sec better rest for now

[09:04] Techrights-sec Could not fetch IPFS log summary

[09:04] Techrights-sec we'll also need Gawk for the scripts, Mawk seems kind of broken

[09:04] Techrights-sec te

[09:04] Techrights-sec Failed feed for 'http://techrights.org/feed/'

[09:04] Techrights-sec Could not find feed at URL: "http://techrights.org/feed/"

[09:04] Techrights-sec probably networking or other connectivity

[09:04] Techrights-sec The Gemini index is fixed now, so is the fetching of new pages via RSS

[09:04] Techrights-sec There are some connectivity issues reaching TR from gemini.techrights.org

[09:05] schestowitz-TR yes, I can see this now, will look into it sjortl

[09:05] schestowitz-TR *shortly

[09:15] Techrights-sec I have a loop in the scrip but it only tries to fetch the feed 5 times,

[09:15] Techrights-sec I'll need to tweak it a bit more.

[09:28] schestowitz-TR i am adding some more missing packages now

● Jan 18

[10:01] Techrights-sec ok

[10:17] schestowitz-TR I have just installed tcpdumb and so the script, if run manually, runs OK. Is it configured as a daemon too?

[10:28] Techrights-sec I can't recall how that was set up to run. Perhaps a unit file is necessary.

[10:28] schestowitz-TR i have just checked wifi device name

[10:28] schestowitz-TR the irc scrollback in gemini is now back

[10:28] schestowitz-TR but the logger sends no output to the file except start and end

[10:28] schestowitz-TR maybe debian 11 changed somethihing

[10:39] schestowitz-TR regarding irc, having just solved the ipfs index (html) mystery,

[10:39] schestowitz-TR did you get no file at all?

[10:39] schestowitz-TR (the one with ipfs bobits)

[10:42] Techrights-sec y.

[10:42] Techrights-sec I'll check IPFS again (got distracted)

[10:43] Techrights-sec nope:

[10:43] Techrights-sec Could not fetch IPFS log summary

[10:43] Techrights-sec are the files in the expected directory?

[10:44] schestowitz-TR checking...

[10:45] Techrights-sec THe latest on is from the 16th, yesterday's is missing.

[10:48] schestowitz-TR seems like a likely permissions issues

[10:48] schestowitz-TR ipfs needing write access in links

[10:52] Techrights-sec chgrp ?

[10:52] schestowitz-TR yes, I was just doing that

● Jan 18

[11:00] schestowitz-TR I think it is OK now

[11:00] schestowitz-TR I created a group ipfslinks

[11:00] Techrights-sec ok I have to check the script, the keys don't work

[11:05] Techrights-sec ok I have to check the script, the keys don't work :

[11:05] Techrights-sec the diectory /home/links/ must be in the group links for that to work

[11:05] Techrights-sec since o=rx ipfs will be able to pass through down to the relevant subdirectory

[11:05] Techrights-sec and write access is not needed (in addition to breaking keys).

[11:05] Techrights-sec $ sudo chgrp links /home/links/

[11:05] Techrights-sec ok testing

[11:05] Techrights-sec ack

[11:06] schestowitz-TR I changed that back

[11:06] schestowitz-TR short story: I was trying to overwrite an old file, which was not possible

[11:06] schestowitz-TR So I was messing with directories instead

[11:06] schestowitz-TR that file was the output.txt file

[11:10] Techrights-sec the two latest files are in the wrong date format:

[11:10] Techrights-sec should be 220117.html and 220116.html like the others

[11:10] Techrights-sec (lots of loose ends in an OS migration)

[11:13] schestowitz-TR aaaaaahhh

[11:13] schestowitz-TR I seee

[11:13] schestowitz cp $IRCDATE.html /home/links/ipfs/$ISODATE.html

[11:13] schestowitz-TR don't woprry about that

[11:13] schestowitz-TR it's because I did not follow the script

[11:14] Techrights-sec can they be renamed so the script can get them?

[11:14] Techrights-sec The input to the script is filtered so that it cannot fetch arbitrary files.

[11:14] Techrights-sec only root or xxxxxx can do that

[11:14] Techrights-sec or links

[11:17] schestowitz-TR yes, hold on

[11:17] schestowitz-TR I have renamed the two latest files

[11:17] schestowitz-TR the scripts will choose the right date, starting tonight

[11:17] schestowitz-TR I ran manually something which I didn';t realise is changing data formats in the

[11:17] Techrights-sec thanks

[11:17] schestowitz-TR cp command

[11:21] Techrights-sec checking...

[11:22] schestowitz-TR it's a good thing that all this happened during a slow/holiday/mlk weekend

[11:22] schestowitz-TR and I ended up with a spare drive, 2 times more space, security updates, OS upgra

[11:22] schestowitz-TR de

[11:22] schestowitz-TR not the ideal way to do all this, but it gave the push

[11:22] schestowitz-TR i think we are nearly done, I need to check on git around midday and then revisit

[11:22] schestowitz-TR the logging

[11:22] Techrights-sec mawk strikes again. could you add gawk? mawk apparently can't handle simple

[11:22] Techrights-sec posix patterns :( thanks

[11:22] schestowitz-TR installing gawk

[11:23] schestowitz-TR done

[11:23] Techrights-sec looks good on site, now testing the script

[11:24] Techrights-sec yes! it works!

[11:26] Techrights-sec published

[11:26] Techrights-sec I had not known that mawk was so incomplete

[11:26] Techrights-sec yes, there are non-standard extensions in Gawk but basic patterns ought to work

[11:26] Techrights-sec even in Mawk.

[11:26] Techrights-sec But they don't

[11:26] schestowitz-TR ;)

[11:46] schestowitz-TR stats/logging back, resxtored

[11:47] schestowitz /home/gemini/bin $ sudo ./tcpdump-logger.sh

[11:47] schestowitz used to be: sudo service gemini-tcpdump-logger start

[11:47] schestowitz which i suppose means you made a unit file as such, which I had in my notes to kick off after power cut or reboot

[11:55] Techrights-sec I can try making another unit file

[11:55] schestowitz-TR :-)

[11:55] schestowitz-TR which year is this?

[11:55] schestowitz-TR they have been doing this for ages :-)

[11:56] Techrights-sec yes it's a repeat, dusting of old, debunked excuses again

[11:56] schestowitz-TR our original ipfs dude wrote a number of articles about this in TR last year or i

[11:56] schestowitz-TR n 2020

[11:58] schestowitz-TR (was thinking: given the new size of the card, we have ample spare space for making an image of the system or part of it -- for a restore of same state on a recently-patched debian 11)

[11:59] schestowitz-TR rianna sometimes uses it as a second desktop for monitoring things, so I restored a number of more thinks last night. not much except firefox and nottes.

[11:59] Techrights-sec Ok, try: agate-tcpdumper.service into /etc/systemd/system/ and then

[11:59] Techrights-sec ./tcpdump-logger.sh into /usr/local/sbin/

[11:59] Techrights-sec then enable, start, status, etc

[12:00] schestowitz-TR trying

[12:00] schestowitz-TR (sorry for typos, it has been a hectic monday, skipped some sleep)

[12:01] schestowitz-TR there is a very good 4-part series coming from andy

[12:01] schestowitz-TR also of note:

[12:01] schestowitz-TR before doing all this advocacy and daily links thing around 2005

[12:02] schestowitz-TR I was able to focus on one task all day long

[12:02] schestowitz-TR like my phd

[12:15] Techrights-sec yes it has been a hectic 2 weeks here too

[12:15] Techrights-sec sleep and exercise are not to be skimped on however

[12:15] Techrights-sec Excellent! His writings have been reallly great to read, very well written and

[12:15] Techrights-sec on very relevant and interesting topics.

[12:15] schestowitz-TR i think this service file has a name collision

[12:15] schestowitz-TR alias for instance

[12:16] schestowitz-TR (I started monitoring disks and syslogs on machines better than before; we got warnings aboiut the pi issues 2 days in advance, I did not notice until fs became R-O)

[12:18] Techrights-sec

[12:18] Techrights-sec checking

[12:18] Techrights-sec thanks try the changed file; and one more typo fixed

[12:18] Techrights-sec Good catch, spotting it early probably saved a lot of trouble even if the

[12:18] Techrights-sec process still was a lot of work

[12:51] schestowitz-TR in my mind what always stayed was the 2M estimate, from around April 2020. People would ridicule those of us who mentioned it.

[14:27] Techrights-sec yes still looking at the logger, tcpdump seems not to be a viable choice

[14:27] Techrights-sec for now, not sure why but have tried about 8 combinations of buffering or

[14:27] Techrights-sec not buffering, nothing is getting through the pipe to awk or anthing else

[14:28] schestowitz-TR that same code worked before, with another unit file but also another OS and another stack (buster)

[14:41] Techrights-sec different OS

[14:41] Techrights-sec it doesn't like bullseye either

[14:41] Techrights-sec the journlctl approach can preserve ip numbers but not resolved names

[14:41] Techrights-sec Is it ok to scale back the logging to what is easy to get from journalctl?

[14:41] Techrights-sec There is probably a regression in tcpdump in regards to output buffering in

[14:41] Techrights-sec Debian 11 and related derivatives.

[14:42] schestowitz-TR ip addressed is fine, that gets purged regardless at the end of each month. if needed, I can run this interactively from the CLI, in the background

[14:42] schestowitz-TR I suppose that sooner or later we'd have had to deal with all those "upgrades"

[14:45] Techrights-sec awk '{print; fflush();}'

[14:45] Techrights-sec does not produce output

[14:45] Techrights-sec ok then add --log-ip to the agate.service file

[14:46] schestowitz-TR is it Ok to remove the sementically probolematic Restart=5s ?

[14:46] Techrights-sec I guess

[14:47] schestowitz it works OK

[14:47] schestowitz where in the service unit file would the parameter go? in the file in sbin instead?

[14:48] Techrights-sec the problem is with Awk again. I think I see a work-around now
