His flow of logic is long and involved, but in my view ACCURATE and important for people here to understand. We need to stop this moral decay before it completely consumes us.

Router Maintenance


Posted on July 15, 2022

This affects all eskimo.com services including our shell servers, virtual private servers, friendica.eskimo.com/, hubzilla.eskimo.com/, nextcloud.eskimo.com/, and eskimo.com.

This evening there will be several times when I/O will freeze for router reboots. I am trying to upgrade software but having some difficulty so need to follow a procedure given to me by Ubiquiti that will require at least two reboots. This machine isn’t the fastest when it comes to reboots so outages may be as long as five minutes in duration.

@insurgens ad opus Well unfortunately socialism and self-castrating men seem to becoming common place world-wide, perhaps it's been too long since the Bolshevik revolution or the Chinese Cultural Revolution for people to remember the outcomes of the last great experiments, or Pol Pot, etc. Or maybe it's too much soy in the diet, I dunno. The point being we aren't any safer here or anywhere on the planet until the current purveyors of this nonsense, Klaus Schwab and the WEF and Bill Gates and the UN, are put to death.

Mail List Recommendations


Posted on July 13, 2022

I am looking for some suggestions for open source mail list software capable of running under Linux to replace the SmartList mail lists we are currently hosting.

SmartList has several fundamental problems. First, neither it nor procmail which it relies on has not been under active development for at least a decade. This means it may be deprecated at any time which would be bad.

Second, SmartList does not re-write the sender address and in situations where the sender’s domain signs their e-mail with SPF, DKIM, or DMARC records, and mail list recipients domains check these things, the e-mail is rejected, dropped, or marked as spam as a result of the server the mail is coming from (ours) not matching the domain of the sender which is still in the header.

Third, many people prefer to administer their lists from a web interface, SmartList provides no method for Web Admin.

Fourth, I’ve had a number of requests for mail list software that has a web archive of lists. SmartList lacks this capability.

So with these things in mind, I attempted to implement Mailman, and I was able to install it but Mailman relies on Python 2.7 which is deprecated and will go away soon, and I was unable to get it to properly recognize the fully qualified domain name and it kept trying to create lists with just the hostname. I was unable to figure out why this is since I do not have just the hostname alone configured anywhere in the software.

So then the next thing I looked at was Mailman3, mailman3 is based upon Python 3.x so current software is supported, BUT it’s split into pieces and does not have a native web interface, this is provided by some separate third party software such as Kitty, Kitty is hardwired to NgNix, and I have a very highly customized and optimized Apache2 that beats NgNix for security, speed, and capability that I prefer to stick with. Second problem with Mailman3 is the documentation is sparse to non-existent and has huge gaps in it’s installation instructions.

So I’m looking for something else, recommendations would be much appreciated.

Mailing List Recommendations


I'm looking to replace antique SmartList mail list processing software with something more modern and capable. The main thing that makes this necessary, aside from the fact that there has been no active development on either SmartList or Procmail upon which it relies for more than a decade, is the fact that it does not re-write sender addresses and does not deal with SPF, DKIM, and DMARC, so has become unreliable at delivery, depending upon whether the senders sites sign their e-mails with one or more of these and the receiving sites check.

Capabilities I need, the ability to re-write and hide the sender addresses, the ability to deal with SPF, DKIM, and DMARC in some sane way. If the addresses are re-written and any originating SPF, DKIM, and DMARC signatures removed this should not be an issues. A web archive of some sort for each list. A web administrative function for list owners. The ability to install on a Ubuntu 22.04 platform, and be totally open source.

I originally looked at Mailman, but it requires Python 2.7 which is deprecated, exactly what I'm trying to get away from. Then I looked at Mailman3, aside from being a real clusterfuck split up into separate bits, it also lacks usable documentation and seems wired to Ngnix and I use Apache2.

So looking for other recommendations.

Need DNSPython < 2.0


I'm trying to build mailman 2.1.39 on Ubuntu 22.04 and ran into the following:

***** dnspython <2.0 not found. It is required for the new
***** dmarc_moderation_action feature. Get it from
***** <dnspython.org/> or
***** <pypi.python.org/pypi/dnspython…
***** You must get a version < 2.0

An early version is not provided in Ubuntu's repositories, and both of the websites the config file references also do not any longer have pre-2.0 versions.

If anyone knows where to get an older version, that info would be appreciated.

Kernel Upgrades 7/8/2022 11PM Pacific Daylight (GMT -0700)


Posted on July 8, 2022

This will affect ALL of Eskimo North’s services including friendica.eskimo.com/, hubzilla.eskimo.com/, nextcloud.eskimo.com/, and eskimo.com/.

We will be upgrading to 5.17.15 which is the last iteration of the 5.17 kernel, we will not be upgrading to 5.18 series yet as it has not been entirely stable on my workstation yet. Keep getting stuck processes with 5.18 and that is no good.

The outages should mainly be between 11pm-11:30pm though some servers may be slightly longer if systemd gives me a hard time.
