networking vents, mikrotik
Anyone especially knowledgeable about #Linux #networking and willing to lend me a hand?
This is a bit outside of my usual content, so I'm looking for someone to answer a couple questions about KVM and bridging re: a specific rack server I have.
Hoping to stand up a few tools for organizing. It used to be set up properly, but I've actually forgot how I did it and those old VMs got nuked.
And it just seems faster to ask, while I'm fighting with it.
Boosts appreciated.
Fedora users report network issues on both wired & wireless after upgrading to kernel 6.16.3
Root cause: regression affecting IPv4 broadcast packets
Fix expected in 6.16.5 (unconfirmed)
Workarounds:
• Boot older kernel via GRUB
• Fedora Atomic: use rpm-ostree override

Danke an die über 50 Personen, die an der Umfrage zum Teilen von Bildern im Fediverse teilgenommen und diese verbreitet haben ❤︎
Das Resultat fiel ziemlich klar pro Pixelfed aus:
19% "Bilder einfach hier auf Mastodon teilen"
81% "Mastodon + Pixelfed parallel nutzen"

Nun suche ich noch eine geeignete Instanz. Wenn ihr bereits auf einer seid, verlinkt gerne eure Accounts unter diesem Post.
Netcat, often called the “TCP/IP Swiss Army Knife,” is more than a simple utility. It can open raw sockets, transfer files, act as a backdoor, or even serve as a quick chat server between machines. Many sysadmins used it for debugging, while hackers saw it as an easy way to pivot or establish command shells. With just a few commands, you could set up a listener on one side and instantly connect from another, making it feel almost magical in its simplicity. Even decades later, its versatility and lightweight design keep it relevant for both troubleshooting and exploitation.
