| 10:43.16 | Guest95236 | hi |
| 10:45.32 | Guest95236 | i hade a dhcp server (isc-dhcp-server) on PC_A. I have PC_B that take IP from PC_A. On PC_B i have 2 OS: devuan (hdd1) and and widpws7 (hdd2). I wish PC_A release ip to PC_B when it run devuan but NOT when it run windows7. is it possible? and if yes, how? |
| 10:46.23 | gnarface | Guest95236: i don't know but the docs for isc-dhcp-server should say |
| 10:46.45 | gnarface | Guest95236: it would be a feature of isc-dhcp-server (i suspect you might have to do some shell scripting) |
| 10:47.30 | gnarface | Guest95236: what you're looking to do is change the rules for the lease times to be custom |
| 10:49.08 | Guest95236 | gnarface, the final goal is to avoid window get access to internet. i was thinking to use (in some way nmap from PC_A and "sniff" PC_B to undertand what OS is running on, thne wit iptable, route or route not the PC_B connection to internet). But your idea seems to me smarter than mine. thanks. |
| 10:49.19 | gnarface | Guest95236: (if i recall right, you can key off a number of things, like dns hostname or a client-provided optional string field, but it's typical to use the hardware MAC address |
| 10:49.23 | gnarface | ) |
| 10:51.21 | gnarface | Guest95236: well, it depends on how badly you want to try to stop the windows install from getting to the internet, changing the dhcp rules won't stop the user from providing a static ip... so you might want to also consider some blocking at the firewall... i realize now MAC address keying won't work either if it's the same machine with only one network device |
| 10:52.31 | Guest95236 | gnarface, no no, look: the pc A and B belongs to me in my home office. i just want thant when i boot debina, it can goes to internet but win7 must be not allowed to do. |
| 10:53.12 | gnarface | oh, well if you can be sure nothing will give itself an ip address, then you can probably do this just with isc-dhcp-server customization, yea |
| 10:53.35 | Guest95236 | just to avoid "nasty things" windows can do without my permissions. |
| 10:53.39 | gnarface | but then you could also just not give windows an ip at all, right? |
| 10:53.59 | gnarface | well that could be handled at the dhcp server too though easily |
| 10:54.16 | gnarface | but there'd be no point in even running dhcp on the windows install then |
| 10:54.22 | Guest95236 | gnarface, WTF! so easey i didnt think avout: disable then network card! |
| 10:54.39 | Guest95236 | im getting old and stupid :-( |
| 10:54.47 | gnarface | yea, you can i belive uninstall the ipx and tcp drivers, disable file sharing, etc |
| 10:55.09 | gnarface | don't assign dhcp address to the network device (i think you can't once you uninstall tcp but i'm not sure) |
| 10:55.27 | gnarface | it's been a really long time since i've done any significant amount of windows admin |
| 10:56.58 | yeti | windows are overrated... |
| 10:57.10 | yeti | only needs air, not light |
| 10:57.12 | yeti | :-Ã |
| 10:57.13 | Guest95236 | anyway, i dont trusto microsoft OS at all.. i think i must ALSO does something on PC_A to isolate PC_B crom internet... |
| 10:57.34 | gnarface | it would be smart to do so, if pc_a is also the router |
| 10:57.58 | gnarface | but then |
| 10:58.13 | gnarface | you could run the windows install in qemu and just not even enable networking at the qemu level |
| 10:58.19 | *** join/#devuan silentjet (~jet@staticline-31-182-193-145.toya.net.pl) |
| 10:58.28 | gnarface | and then windows wouldn't even have direct access to the hardware let alone the network, unless you allowed it |
| 10:58.44 | gnarface | that's more work but that is a great solution because then you don't even have to reboot to use windows either |
| 10:58.52 | gnarface | (though gaming performance would be hampered) |
| 10:58.52 | Guest95236 | gnarface, this is the topology: internet--modem/router--my_dhcp_server_homemade(PC_A)---PC_B |
| 10:59.43 | Guest95236 | i dont play onlyne... im a old, fat guy that still play offline games of 10-15 years ago |
| 11:00.09 | gnarface | well, opengl is a particular sticking point on windows7 in qemu |
| 11:00.18 | gnarface | i've been looking into it for a friend and haven't found a way around it |
| 11:00.29 | gnarface | but anything that doesn't rely on opengl would probably work fine |

| 17:29.21 | fsmithred | refreshgui, I did it a week or two ago. |
| 17:29.39 | fsmithred | had to unpack the deb and put the files in place (for the installer) |
| 17:29.56 | fsmithred | and had to put a few live-config files in place |
| 17:30.06 | fsmithred | and it worked |
| 17:30.18 | fsmithred | so then I made a live-config-runit package that did the same thing |
| 17:30.25 | fsmithred | and I broke the system |
| 17:30.35 | refreshgui | oh great thanks! ill try it on antix and report back in case you havent already checked |
| 17:30.36 | fsmithred | and could not get it back to the original state |
| 17:30.59 | refreshgui | ill try it in mxlinux too in due time |
| 17:31.11 | fsmithred | thanks |
| 17:31.44 | refreshgui | so wait...is it broke now? |
| 17:31.49 | refreshgui | fsmithred: |
| 17:32.38 | fsmithred | <PROTECTED> |
| 17:32.49 | fsmithred | first iso worked without live-config at all |
| 17:32.52 | fsmithred | mostly worked |
| 17:33.08 | fsmithred | second one had all the necessary files and worked |
| 17:33.28 | refreshgui | i guess it wont work if i just add devuan sources.list, install refracta tools and try it in antix/mx then... |
| 17:33.40 | fsmithred | after that I tried to do it with live-config-runit and that's when I broke it |
| 17:34.22 | fsmithred | no, you lose sysvinit with runit, so you can't have live-config-sysvinit and you must have that or equivalent for refractainstaller |
| 17:34.48 | fsmithred | download packages from sourceforge and unpack them or else pull the files from git |
| 17:34.54 | refreshgui | the other "issue" was that it seemed to require a ton of storage (or ram on a live-session) - moreso than comparable tools on antix and arch/manjaro like archiso/buildiso |
| 17:35.15 | refreshgui | is it 2 or 3 times the iso size that I need as storage? |
| 17:35.39 | fsmithred | what? |
| 17:35.46 | fsmithred | what are you trying to do? |
| 17:36.25 | fsmithred | refractasnapthos requires lots of free hard drive space, because it makes a copy of your filesystem before it squashes it |
| 17:37.24 | refreshgui | i was trying to create an iso and burn it, dont remember if refracta creates a directory with all files first (before making iso) but the whole thing was taking more than 4gb ram - was doing it on a live-dvd of devuan 3 beta or something |
| 17:38.16 | refreshgui | so iso was between 1-1.4gb - do i need 2 or 3 times extra space/ram until i have an iso I can burn? |
| 17:38.32 | refreshgui | or more? |
| 17:38.45 | fsmithred | you're trying to make a snapshot while running a live system or an installed system? |
| 17:38.51 | refreshgui | LIVE |
| 17:38.59 | refreshgui | live ...sorry caps |
| 17:39.43 | fsmithred | so you are mounting some storage space and setting a different snapshot_dir and/or work_dir in the config file? |
| 17:39.44 | refreshgui | im buying new devices with more ram, i hope 8gb will be enough... |
| 17:40.22 | refreshgui | actually the ram itself was the "storage" though I could use usb drives if i wanted |
| 17:40.33 | fsmithred | aaakkk! |
| 17:40.40 | refreshgui | lol |
| 17:40.43 | fsmithred | yeah, add a usb for storage |
| 17:41.36 | refreshgui | ive done the same on antix many times...its lighter weight and its snapshot tool as well, perhaps |
| 17:42.03 | fsmithred | maybe they figured out how to squash the fileystem directly |
| 17:42.04 | refreshgui | with 4gb ram, |
| 17:42.52 | fsmithred | until recently I built my isos on a 2006 athlon X2 with 2G ram. |
| 17:43.13 | refreshgui | the grass isnt all greener at antix though...there are issues installing jitsi...although zoom installs fine fwiw |
| 17:43.49 | fsmithred | would be nice if zoom would update their deb packages to something newer than jessie |
| 17:44.16 | refreshgui | i prefer your tool fsmithred though, because both antix/mx dont want to allow upgrading the kernel (without using a liveusb-kernel-updater from a liveusb itself) for stability reasons |
| 17:46.04 | refreshgui | is there a forum thread/wikipage/etc tracking where the tool has worked? (ubuntu/debian derivs with systemd? other devuan derivs?) |
| 17:46.32 | refreshgui | i imagine it wouldnt work with pclinuxos or other distro fams? |
| 17:47.30 | refreshgui | fsmithred: |
| 17:48.17 | fsmithred | refreshgui, yeah there's an old thread about that |
| 17:48.21 | fsmithred | I'll get the link |
| 17:48.35 | fsmithred | it's worked with a lot of debian-based distros |
| 17:48.50 | fsmithred | some require tweaking |
| 17:51.00 | fsmithred | sorry for all the javascript - not my doing, and I left that forum. https://www.tapatalk.com/groups/refracta/refracta-installer-and-snapshot-used-on-other-distros-t111.html |
| 17:51.06 | refreshgui | dev1g thread 2952? (sorry im without gui rn, cant copy paste |
| 17:51.29 | refreshgui | irssi + links2 |
| 17:51.40 | refreshgui | ty for link |
| 17:52.26 | refreshgui | s/cant/dontknowhowto/ |
| 17:52.46 | fsmithred | oh, maybe it's there, too. |
| 17:54.02 | refreshgui | hmm...i skimmed through the 2952 thread...i dont see any distro names, so its general info at best |
| 17:55.03 | fsmithred | no, that thread won't help |
| 17:55.16 | fsmithred | what distro you want to try? |
| 17:56.24 | refreshgui | realistically i just wanted to know if it worked for most/all debian and ubuntu and devuan derivs... |
| 17:56.33 | fsmithred | basically, yes |
| 17:56.44 | refreshgui | trisquel comes to mind...if they can nosystemd, all the better |
| 17:56.51 | fsmithred | some versions of ubuntu were missing live-config-sysvinit, I think |
| 17:56.56 | brocashelm | trisquel has systemd |
| 17:57.22 | brocashelm | you'd break your system trying to remove it |
| 17:57.30 | refreshgui | i know brocashelm but one day perhaps, theres definately some interest for it on their forum over the years |
| 17:58.03 | brocashelm | i think they are set on keeping it, since it is foss, just badly made |
| 17:58.04 | refreshgui | pureos could be another, though thats mainly debian |
| 17:58.22 | brocashelm | what was your issue with devuan/refracta? |
| 17:59.16 | refreshgui | fsmithred: is it not as simple as adding live-config-sysvinit (or other missing packages) from some devuan or other sources.list? |
| 18:00.29 | fsmithred | in that case, yes. I put the missing packages up on my old website so they were easily available |
| 18:01.21 | refreshgui | my old website = tapatalk? like it was registered under your name/control? |
| 18:01.31 | fsmithred | ibilio |
| 18:01.32 | refreshgui | antix's old forum was also on tapatalk... |
| 18:01.36 | fsmithred | ibiblio |
| 18:01.37 | refreshgui | ah |
| 18:01.56 | fsmithred | yeah, I closed the tapatalk forum and haven't used it since they turned orange |
| 18:02.17 | fsmithred | the orange wasn't the deal-breaker |
| 18:02.20 | refreshgui | i know that site as well...I see it now has https :) |
| 18:02.41 | fsmithred | the "donate to refracta" button that allowed users to donate to tapatalk was the killer feature. |
| 18:04.07 | refreshgui | brocashelm: one of the issues with devuan was perhaps the lack of https/tls working with apt... |
| 18:04.37 | refreshgui | because of round robin system i think, but still unfortunate |
| 18:05.58 | refreshgui | fsmithred: theres been no news about distros working since 2017 (last post on that thread)? |
| 18:06.07 | fsmithred | for https you just have to pick a mirror that supports it |
| 18:06.16 | refreshgui | ty fsmithred |
| 18:06.53 | refreshgui | i didnt remember seeing that in the thread saying https wasnt working, but ill take your word for it |
| 18:07.03 | brocashelm | i hate tapatalk |
| 18:07.04 | fsmithred | refreshgui, it will most likely work with any debian-based distro |
| 18:07.31 | brocashelm | refreshgui: try fsmithred's solution and report back |
| 18:07.49 | refreshgui | great then...ill try with some linux-libre distros...some of which are devuan derivs |
| 18:07.50 | brocashelm | devuan is as non-systemd as it gets for a debian base |
| 18:08.12 | brocashelm | you could try miyo gnu/linux |
| 18:08.17 | brocashelm | miyo = make it your own |
| 18:09.26 | fsmithred | miyo already uses refracta-tools but usually (always?) includes some non-free firmware |
| 18:09.34 | *** join/#devuan ToxicExMachina (~toxicexma@77.79.151.220.dynamic.ufanet.ru) |
| 18:09.41 | refreshgui | i know miyo indeed brocashelm - but he also states not to depend on him on his sf.net readmes |
| 18:10.07 | refreshgui | voyager (?) was the linux libre devuan - its meant for music/multimedia prod |
| 18:10.09 | fsmithred | you don't really need to depend on him |
| 18:10.13 | fsmithred | it's devuan |
| 18:10.20 | fsmithred | virage |
| 18:10.53 | refreshgui | yup |
| 18:11.33 | refreshgui | so yeah, ill try refracta on virage if its not been reported as working yet |
| 18:12.03 | fsmithred | btw, I just uploaded new installer debs to sourceforge and they are also in ceres repo |
| 18:12.10 | fsmithred | 9.5.6 |
| 18:13.08 | refreshgui | great news...are changelogs anywhere? i remember synaptic in devuan not being the most descriptive with package descriptions/no ability to download changelogs either |
| 18:13.38 | fsmithred | changelog is on git and on the sf page with the debs |
| 18:13.56 | refreshgui | ty |
| 18:14.26 | fsmithred | https://sourceforge.net/projects/refracta/files/tools/ |
| 18:15.04 | refreshgui | is refracta.org (distro) your project/url too? |
| 18:15.17 | fsmithred | yeah, that's mine |
| 18:15.20 | fsmithred | and current |
| 18:15.52 | refreshgui | nice |
| 18:18.41 | refreshgui | fsmithred: is ibiblio stale/not current then? |
| 18:19.01 | fsmithred | refreshgui, if you're going to make a live-iso from a running live system, will the snapshot be different from the original? |
| 18:19.28 | refreshgui | possibly |
| 18:19.30 | fsmithred | ibiblio is not current. I still use it as a file/image host sometimes |
| 18:19.52 | refreshgui | at the very least its a convenient way to create isos with up to date sw, including the kernel, which I cannot update with antix/mx tools |
| 18:20.06 | fsmithred | possibly? If it's not going to be different |
| 18:20.07 | fsmithred | oh |
| 18:20.14 | fsmithred | that won't work |
| 18:20.32 | fsmithred | unless you run apt udpate && apt full-upgrade |
| 18:20.41 | fsmithred | and that will use up your ram for sure |
| 18:20.41 | refreshgui | but I was maintaining my own iso with my own sw/configs for a few months/10-20 consecutive snapshots last year |
| 18:21.26 | fsmithred | if you have 12-15 GB hard drive space you can spare, install in a VM and use that for making isos |
| 18:22.04 | fsmithred | maybe more if you want a really fat desktop |
| 18:22.09 | refreshgui | im buying 8-16-32gb devices soon...at least one will have enough ram |
| 18:22.44 | refreshgui | i find the ram-only solutions "cleaner" for security reasons... |
| 18:23.13 | refreshgui | usb keys that get put into multiple devices...dont know if they've been compromised, cant reliably checksum them |
| 18:23.47 | refreshgui | its a little more cleanroom when creating iso images that are supposed to be clean, perhaps for others to use/distribution as well |
| 18:29.20 | refreshgui | i understand not all are that security conscious, but I guess I just see possible secu ssues and try to avoid them if its not too complex. Reproducible builds would be helpful as well, and not too pricey if devuan (or other distro) uses a free CI in the cloud (void dev was telling me how travisCI (?) was free for foss projects ) |
| 18:30.27 | refreshgui | perhaps one of the two compiles could be on a CI, lowering compile costs/time |
| 18:32.14 | fsmithred | have you looked at live-sdk? |
| 18:32.34 | refreshgui | so yeah...dream distro...libre,nosystemd,reproducible and i can refresh my kernels so they are always secure vs all but 0day |
| 18:32.45 | fsmithred | it's a little more complex to get it up and running, but once you do, builds can be automated |
| 18:33.04 | refreshgui | ive heard of it, not looked into much yet |
| 18:33.42 | fsmithred | I wrote a howto on the forum, but it might not be accurate at this point |
| 18:34.22 | refreshgui | ill look into it...are you/others still using it? perhaps update the docs? |
| 18:34.35 | fsmithred | yes, devuan live isos are made with it |
| 18:35.14 | fsmithred | oh, you might not like it |
| 18:35.15 | refreshgui | ok...so i guess some derivs use refractasnapshot, but devuan itself doesnt for official isos |
| 18:35.39 | fsmithred | I just remembered that it needs user to have sudo privs for everything |
| 18:35.45 | refreshgui | maybe the q is what does it add/do that refractasnapshot doesnt? |
| 18:35.49 | refreshgui | if its more hassle |
| 18:35.52 | fsmithred | and if you don't set up nopasswd, it's a pain in the asss |
| 18:36.37 | fsmithred | it builds a new system from downloaded packages instead of copying a non-virgin system into the iso |
| 18:37.21 | refreshgui | what if you just run it from a su terminal session? all other operations made by live-sdk should run with su/sudo just fine no? |
| 18:37.37 | fsmithred | yeah, it's possible |
| 18:37.38 | refreshgui | ah |
| 18:37.48 | refreshgui | perhaps closer to the archiso/buildiso tools then |
| 18:38.08 | fsmithred | I haven't looked at those |
| 18:38.55 | fsmithred | similar in some ways to live-build |
| 18:39.22 | fsmithred | edit some config files, including some package lists |
| 18:39.24 | refreshgui | apparently there are similar tools for pclinuxos and gentoo, at the very least...maybe one day there will be a neat metatool that avoids people remembering specifics of each tool, starting with the different tool names! |
| 18:39.40 | fsmithred | and it does a debootstrap install then chroots to install and configure the system |
| 18:41.08 | refreshgui | some ubuntu derivs also used a gui tool made by pinguy - pinguy builder |
| 18:43.33 | refreshgui | fsmithred: are you fluent/familiar with live-build? that is the tool they use to make official debian isos, right? but i would have to use another snapshot tool or genisoimage to make iso from the new chroot? |
| 18:47.32 | fsmithred | I started making live isos with live-build |
| 18:47.37 | fsmithred | uhhh |
| 18:47.44 | fsmithred | live- |
| 18:47.48 | fsmithred | shit |
| 18:47.54 | fsmithred | it had another name then |
| 18:48.15 | fsmithred | live-helper? |
| 18:48.46 | refreshgui | no worries |
| 18:48.51 | refreshgui | i dont know |
| 18:49.24 | fsmithred | yeah, it was live-helper. I still have configs from that. |
| 18:49.53 | fsmithred | I like refractasnapshot better. WYSIWYG |
| 18:50.08 | refreshgui | live-helper seems eol since 2010 |
| 18:50.22 | fsmithred | with the other tools, you don't know what it looks like until it's done building |
| 18:50.33 | *** join/#devuan luna_is_here (~luna@port-92-201-19-105.dynamic.as20676.net) |
| 18:51.25 | refreshgui | so you never had glitches in the iso you booted that werent there while you were snapshotting? |
| 18:51.52 | refreshgui | w/refracta or other tools, really |
| 18:52.10 | fsmithred | ???? |
| 18:52.18 | fsmithred | uh, I never said that |
| 18:52.26 | fsmithred | I've had all kinds of glitches |
| 18:52.30 | refreshgui | lol |
| 18:52.31 | refreshgui | ok |
| 18:53.03 | fsmithred | with ugly, hacky workarounds |
| 18:53.31 | refreshgui | i was trying to remember if the antix tools had at least 1-2 times a glitch, or if the glitches would just naturally pop up on the live-system as I updated/installed/uninstalled stuff... - the latter happened a few times for sure |
| 18:56.15 | refreshgui | are there any employers/jobs/companies where devuan is used? |
| 18:56.28 | fsmithred | yeah |
| 18:57.06 | fsmithred | I don't have any names to give you, but a lot of the original devs are sysadmins |
| 18:57.55 | fsmithred | consultants |
| 18:58.00 | refreshgui | one of the reasons holding me back from devuan is that it seems on its own, with increasing difficulties i.e. dec2019 systemd debian vote, jaromil mentioning how it was initially an experiment (sorry if misquoting).... i only use antix because mx has a seemingly large user base. |
| 18:58.05 | fsmithred | they install devuan for their clients |
| 18:58.49 | refreshgui | i like the project ,its just that distros need a ton of money, or otherwise-employed devs to survive long term |
| 18:59.21 | fsmithred | we should move to offtopic |
| 18:59.32 | refreshgui | your tool however, seems to work elsewhere, and better, which is why i like it :) |
| 18:59.36 | refreshgui | ah sorry |
