Podcasts about Lubuntu

In today's fast-paced technological landscape, the rapid evolution of hardware often leaves older devices obsolete, particularly when it comes to operating systems. The increasing requirements for modern operating systems, such as Windows 11, pose significant challenges for charities and individuals looking to repurpose older laptops. However, one viable solution that not only extends the life of these devices but also promotes sustainability is the installation of Linux operating systems.The Challenge of ObsolescenceAs technology advances, operating systems and software applications demand more from hardware. Windows 11, for instance, requires at least an 8th generation Intel CPU, along with other specifications that many older laptops do not meet. This creates a dilemma for organizations like charities that receive donated laptops. While these devices may be functional, their inability to run the latest operating systems often leads to their disposal or relegation to e-waste recycling - a process that is not only environmentally taxing but also wasteful.The Benefits of LinuxLinux emerges as a powerful alternative for repurposing old laptops. Unlike Windows, Linux distributions (or "distros") are designed to be lightweight and flexible, making them suitable for older hardware. Here are several compelling reasons to consider Linux for repurposing old laptops:Compatibility with Older HardwareMany Linux distributions are specifically tailored to run on older machines. Distros like Ubuntu MATE, Lubuntu, and Xubuntu are known for their efficiency and can breathe new life into laptops that struggle with more demanding operating systems.Cost-EffectiveLinux is open-source and free to use, which means that charities and individuals can install it without incurring licensing fees. This is particularly beneficial for organizations that operate on tight budgets and seek to maximize the resources they have.Security and UpdatesWhile Windows 10 is approaching its end of life and will no longer receive security updates unless users pay for extended support, many Linux distributions offer regular updates and support from their communities. This ensures that users can maintain a secure computing environment without the looming threat of outdated software.Diverse Software EcosystemLinux provides access to a vast array of software applications for various needs, from productivity tools to multimedia editing. Users can find alternatives to popular software that runs on Windows, allowing them to perform everyday tasks without the need for expensive licenses.Community SupportThe Linux community is known for its robust support networks. Users can easily find help through forums, online documentation, and user groups, making it easier for those unfamiliar with Linux to transition smoothly.Environmental ImpactBy choosing to install Linux on older laptops, we are not only extending the life of these devices but also contributing to a more sustainable future. E-waste is a growing concern, with millions of tons generated each year. Repurposing laptops with Linux helps reduce this waste by keeping devices in use longer and minimizing the demand for new hardware. In an era where environmental sustainability is paramount, this practice aligns with broader efforts to reduce our carbon footprint and promote responsible consumption.ConclusionRepurposing old laptops with Linux is a practical and sustainable approach to technology that benefits both individuals and the environment. As discussed in the Piltch Point podcast, the challenges posed by modern operating systems can be mitigated through the adoption of Linux, which offers compatibility, cost savings, security, and community support. By embracing this alternative, we can ensure that older laptops continue to serve their purpose, providing valuable resources to those in need while reducing electronic waste. In doing so, we take a meaningful step towards a more sustainable and responsible technological future.

Tornare a linux. Meraviglioso. Fluido, naturale !Invece win 11 abominevole. Sempre meno libera la personalizzazione della UI.Ricominciare con un nuovo OS significa rivalutare le cose importanti.E rimettere ordine.Consigliatissimo.Fioriscono in rete i tool per riconquistare la privacy in win11 (ma anche win10 !):https://wpd.app/download/https://www.techno360.in/xd-antispy-reclaim-your-windows-11-privacy/https://github.com/builtbybel/xd-AntiSpy/releases/tag/4.13.0Per cosa ho perso tempo? Per reimpostare gli shortcuts di sistema. Volume, play pausa, etc etc.Buon ascolto !

Windows servers updating to 2025 without being asked, Microsoft tries wooden datacenters to reduce carbon footprint, Outlook crashes if you open 60 emails!!! New Printer but old PC can't print, Win 11 File explorer user desktop issues, Microsoft is forcing Outlook install, Mu Facebook home page will not work so clear your cache, How can I see what's being backed up on my iPhone? MAC Mini to move to Linux best Ubuntu or Lubuntu, New 4TB SSD seems to be failing should I replace it?

Os sinos tocam a rebate; o podcast está prestes a perder os patrocínios e a ter resultados negativos no final do trimestre. Os accionistas atiram-se do campanário da igreja em desespero - os anfitriões riem, encharcados em Kubernetes antidepressivos e a flutuarem nas nuvens. Já dizia a nossa avó: "em casa onde não há patrocínio, todos ralham e praticam lenocínio". No meio desta rebaldaria, o Diogo foi gabar-se no Linkedin e empinocar-se com rímel nas pestanas do Firefox; vimos como o Webber resolve tudo no Ubuntu Touch; aplicações ciclistas "open source" não são bem bem bem "open source"; o Lubuntu pula e avança como Wayland colorido entre as mãos de uma criança; o Diogo alimentou ainda mais famílias chinesas e porque é que o Miguel vai comprar um chicote de cabedal para ler artigos na Internet.

Num verdadeiro terramoto de novidades, ficámos a saber como correu a Mantic Party; como cortar os dedos nas arestas de Openbox em Lubuntu; o que fazer quando os sítios web nos querem fazer exames involuntários; como fazer dinheiro com o OnlyFangs e aplicar dicas de poupança forretas; para que servem Teras a mais; como fazer com que as baterias do portátil fiquem bem bojudas - e ainda desejámos boa sorte e boa viagem ao nosso Enviado Especial, de partida para a Letónia.

Além das nossas costumeiras aventuras semanais, que esta semana envolveram containers, Ubuntu Touch, Home Assistant e Ansible, nesta semana o maior foco tinha de ser um olhar sobre a Beta do Ubuntu 23.04 Lunar Lobster, em antecipação da release no dia 20 de Abril. Ubuntu, Ubuntu Mate, Lubuntu e Ubuntu Studio.

Empecé a usar Linux en el año 2005 con Ubuntu. Desde entonces he probado diferentes ditribuciones como Manjaro, Elementary, Lubuntu, Linux Mint, etc, pero nunca me había decidido a instalar y probar en serio Fedora. Paralelamente y respecto a entornos de escritorio siempre me he movido entre XFCE, LXDE, Gnome 2 y Cinnamon pero nunca me había dado por probar KDE Plasma. Por requerimientos laborales me he visto trabajando con máquinas con este entorno y he decidido ya de una ponerme en serio a probarlo, y que mejor que fusionar las dos cosas, así que ya llevo unos días usando únicamente Fedora 36 KDE Plasma y sólo puedo decir que me está encantado. A título personal he ido dejando por escrito aquello que he tenido que instalar a lo largo del proceso y he redactado unas notas a modo de recordatorio y material de consulta que también os comparto aquí: Notas para después de instalar Fedora 36 KDE Plasma, para que podáis consultar si es de vuestro agrado.

OSGeoLive is a self-contained bootable DVD, USB thumb drive or Virtual Machine based on Lubuntu, that allows you to try a wide variety of open source geospatial software without installing anything. It is composed entirely of free software, allowing it to be freely distributed, duplicated and passed around. It provides pre-configured applications for a range of geospatial use cases, including storage, publishing, viewing, analysis and manipulation of data. It also contains sample datasets and documentation. We spoke to Enoch about OSGeoLive and how to get started with it. He spoke at the State of the Map Africa conference on "Beyond mapping! Reusing OpenStreetMap Data and FOSS4G". This episode is the 2nd installment of the SOTM series and here Enoch dives deep to the discussion about OSGeoLive, his passion for Open Source and what he hopes to see in the future and the growth of Open Source software.

Samsung N150 Plus upgrade from Lubuntu 16.04 LTS to Lubuntu 20.04.1 - performed 17/12/20 Backup and prep process Copied all documents and important files from Samsung laptop to removable hard drive. Used Lubuntu gui file manager which crashed at least twice, probably due to netbook limited RAM. Found out that a direct upgrade from 16.04 LTS to 20.04 LTS is not possible, refer to the following links. Upgrade path from 16.04 LTS to 20.04 LTS Ubuntu release-cycle Downloaded Lubuntu 20.04.1 Found a spare 32GB USB stick and copied all the files that were on it to a removable hard drive. Opened downloaded Lubuntu image using Disk Image writer (1st time I've used this), wrote image to 32GB SD, found process very easy On Samsung netbook hit F2 at boot time to select boot from USB Booted from USB stick containing LUBUNTU 20.04.1 Live distro 1st boot. Once booted I found the trackpad speed to be very slow and my first attempt at adjusting the speed in preferences made no difference. Connected to WiFi, setting this up seemed much more clunky than previous connection method, however it did work. Went to Youtube and played some video, everything worked fine, also found that volume keys on netbook worked. Install Process Went through install and selected manual partitioning, Used existing swap on sda6 and format and mounted new Lubuntu root filesystem on sda7 replacing 16.04 with 20.04.1 After first boot Upon first boot was surprised that it had remembered my WiFi connection details and told me there were updates It asked if I wanted to perform a full upgrade without giving any details. At the time I didn't know what this meant. I wasn't sure I would remain on an LTS or upgrade to 20.10. After the full upgrade I check OS release using the following command. This confirmed I was still running 20.04 LTS cat /etc/os-release The logon screen has desktop options, by default it's set to Lubuntu, I found this to be a bit slow and unresponsive also the screen decoration on terminals was rather clunky taking up unnecessary screen space. The next time I entered the logon screen I selected LXQT. I was pleased to find that this option was remembered. The netbook was now a bit more responsive though not quite as good as it was before the upgrade. The terminal screen was now much tidier and more usable. Preferences / LXQT settings / Keyboard and mouse / Mouse and Touch Pad / Acceleration speed now 5.0 think was 0.1, also selected single click to activate item Installed mc, ncdu, screen, pv, moc, ssh Generated RSA ssh keys and copied them to Pi13, they installed with no problems and allowed me to SSH into my Pi13. Copied all my files and documents from my portable hard drive back onto the laptop. This time I used mc "Midnight Commander" to copy the files back which I found much easier than using the GUI file manager the first time around. Midnight commander is an Ncurses file manager. I had forgotten just how good the ncurses file manager Midnight commander is. Midnight Commander gave a constant percentage progress of each individual file being copied and the overall progress which was very useful and reassuring with such a slow laptop. The first time around the laptop actually crashed a couple of times when I was using the LUBUNTU GUI file manager to try and copy the files from the laptop to the hard drive. Also even though I generally use keyboard shortcuts for copy and paste operation I still tend to use the track pad at places when using a file manager. It's easy to limit yourself to keyboard navigation using mc. I found this to be greatly reassuring and I feel doing this makes the likelihood of disastrous errors much less likely. General thoughts and Observations The keyboard screen brightness buttons don't work however I can adjust it within preferences. Further investigation will be needed to resolve this minor annoyance if / when I get the time and inclination. The netbook now has a much slower boot time The netbook now feels a little sluggish but I think it's still perfectly usable. I have a feeling this might be the last upgrade this netbook sees as it's now getting a bit long in the tooth. It also has a broken power switch which I believe was a common fault. I have to use a pair of scissors to turn it on.

Si eres administrador de sistemas, ¿quien soy yo para hablarte del terminal?. Pero, si que quiero preguntarte ¿Que aplicación utilizas para emular un terminal?¿El que viene por defecto en Ubuntu o la distribución que utilices?¿O instalas uno específico como puede ser Terminator?¿O prefieres los terminales desplegables? Si eres un usuario novel, recién llegado a Ubuntu, o a la distribución de tu elección, es posible que el terminal, todavía te produzca respeto. O, ni siquiera eso, simplemente pienses que el terminal, es cosa del pasado, que hoy en día ya no es necesario. Sin embargo, para los administradores de sistemas, hoy por hoy, es una herramienta esencial. Fíjate hasta que punto es necesario el emulador de terminal, que Microsoft ha vuelto atrás en el tiempo, y ha integrado hasta bash en sus sistemas. Pero no solo es para los administradores de sistemas. Si eres de los que te gusta cacharrear como es mi caso, sin lugar a dudas que la Raspberry, ocupe una parte importante de tu tiempo de ocio. Y a menos, que la tengas con un entorno de escritorio como puede ser Lubuntu o Ubuntu Mate, cosa que no te recomiendo, lo normal es que te hables con la Raspberry Pi, mediante un teminal. Pero, ni siquiera me quiero cerrar a la Raspeberry Pi para el uso de la terminal. Un usuario normal, puede mejorar considerablemente su productividad recurriendo al terminal para realizar determinados trabajos o procesos. Así, por ejemplo, recientemente publiqué un sencillo script que te permite convertir un audio en vídeo para posteriormente subirlo a YouTube. Si, por supuesto que lo puedes hacer con un editor de vídeo. Sin embargo, no me negarás que es mucho mas sencillo, rápido y productivo hacerlo, de forma desatendida e incluso masiva, desde el terminal, con un sencillo script.

People generally offer this bit of wisdom just to lend some solace after a misfortune. But sometimes it’s actually true. It certainly was for Ken Thompson and the late Dennis Ritchie, two of the greats of 20th-century information technology, when they created the Unix operating system, now considered one of the most inspiring and influential pieces of software ever written. A door had slammed shut for Thompson and Ritchie in March of 1969, when their employer, the American Telephone & Telegraph Co., withdrew from a collaborative project with the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and General Electric to create an interactive time-sharing system called Multics, which stood for “Multiplexed Information and Computing Service.” Time-sharing, a technique that lets multiple people use a single computer simultaneously, had been invented only a decade earlier. Multics was to combine time-sharing with other technological advances of the era, allowing users to phone a computer from remote terminals and then read e-mail, edit documents, run calculations, and so forth. It was to be a great leap forward from the way computers were mostly being used, with people tediously preparing and submitting batch jobs on punch cards to be run one by one. Over five years, AT&T invested millions in the Multics project, purchasing a GE-645 mainframe computer and dedicating to the effort many of the top researchers at the company’s renowned Bell Telephone Laboratories—­including Thompson and Ritchie, Joseph F. Ossanna, Stuart Feldman, M. Douglas McIlroy, and the late Robert Morris. But the new system was too ambitious, and it fell troublingly behind schedule. In the end, AT&T’s corporate leaders decided to pull the plug. After AT&T’s departure from the Multics project, managers at Bell Labs, in Murray Hill, N.J., became reluctant to allow any further work on computer operating systems, leaving some researchers there very frustrated. Although Multics hadn’t met many of its objectives, it had, as Ritchie later recalled, provided them with a “convenient interactive computing service, a good environment in which to do programming, [and] a system around which a fellowship could form.” Suddenly, it was gone. With heavy hearts, the researchers returned to using their old batch system. At such an inauspicious moment, with management dead set against the idea, it surely would have seemed foolhardy to continue designing computer operating systems. But that’s exactly what Thompson, Ritchie, and many of their Bell Labs colleagues did. Now, some 40 years later, we should be thankful that these programmers ignored their bosses and continued their labor of love, which gave the world Unix, one of the greatest computer operating systems of all time. The rogue project began in earnest when Thompson, Ritchie, and a third Bell Labs colleague, Rudd Canaday, began to sketch out on paper the design for a file system. Thompson then wrote the basics of a new operating system for the lab’s GE-645 mainframe. But with the Multics project ended, so too was the need for the GE-645. Thompson realized that any further programming he did on it was likely to go nowhere, so he dropped the effort. Thompson had passed some of his time after the demise of Multics writing a computer game called Space Travel, which simulated all the major bodies in the solar system along with a spaceship that could fly around them. Written for the GE-645, Space Travel was clunky to play—and expensive: roughly US $75 a game for the CPU time. Hunting around, Thompson came across a dusty PDP-7, a minicomputer built by Digital Equipment Corp. that some of his Bell Labs colleagues had purchased earlier for a circuit-analysis project. Thompson rewrote Space Travel to run on it. And with that little programming exercise, a second door cracked ajar. It was to swing wide open during the summer of 1969 when Thompson’s wife, Bonnie, spent a month visiting his parents to show off their newborn son. Thompson took advantage of his temporary bachelor existence to write a good chunk of what would become the Unix operating system for the discarded PDP‑7. The name Unix stems from a joke one of Thompson’s colleagues made: Because the new operating system supported only one user (Thompson), he saw it as an emasculated version of Multics and dubbed it “Un-multiplexed Information and Computing Service,” or Unics. The name later morphed into Unix. Initially, Thompson used the GE-645 to compose and compile the software, which he then downloaded to the PDP‑7. But he soon weaned himself from the mainframe, and by the end of 1969 he was able to write operating-system code on the PDP-7 itself. That was a step in the right direction. But Thompson and the others helping him knew that the PDP‑7, which was already obsolete, would not be able to sustain their skunkworks for long. They also knew that the lab’s management wasn’t about to allow any more research on operating systems. So Thompson and Ritchie got crea­tive. They formulated a proposal to their bosses to buy one of DEC’s newer minicomputers, a PDP-11, but couched the request in especially palatable terms. They said they were aiming to create tools for editing and formatting text, what you might call a word-processing system today. The fact that they would also have to write an operating system for the new machine to support the editor and text formatter was almost a footnote. Management took the bait, and an order for a PDP-11 was placed in May 1970. The machine itself arrived soon after, although the disk drives for it took more than six months to appear. During the interim, Thompson, Ritchie, and others continued to develop Unix on the PDP-7. After the PDP-11’s disks were installed, the researchers moved their increasingly complex operating system over to the new machine. Next they brought over the roff text formatter written by Ossanna and derived from the runoff program, which had been used in an earlier time-sharing system. Unix was put to its first real-world test within Bell Labs when three typists from AT&T’s patents department began using it to write, edit, and format patent applications. It was a hit. The patent department adopted the system wholeheartedly, which gave the researchers enough credibility to convince management to purchase another machine—a newer and more powerful PDP-11 model—allowing their stealth work on Unix to continue. During its earliest days, Unix evolved constantly, so the idea of issuing named versions or releases seemed inappropriate. But the researchers did issue new editions of the programmer’s manual periodically, and the early Unix systems were named after each such edition. The first edition of the manual was completed in November 1971. So what did the first edition of Unix offer that made it so great? For one thing, the system provided a hierarchical file system, which allowed something we all now take for granted: Files could be placed in directories—or equivalently, folders—that in turn could be put within other directories. Each file could contain no more than 64 kilobytes, and its name could be no more than six characters long. These restrictions seem awkwardly limiting now, but at the time they appeared perfectly adequate. Although Unix was ostensibly created for word processing, the only editor available in 1971 was the line-oriented ed. Today, ed is still the only editor guaranteed to be present on all Unix systems. Apart from the text-processing and general system applications, the first edition of Unix included games such as blackjack, chess, and tic-tac-toe. For the system administrator, there were tools to dump and restore disk images to magnetic tape, to read and write paper tapes, and to create, check, mount, and unmount removable disk packs. Most important, the system offered an interactive environment that by this time allowed time-sharing, so several people could use a single machine at once. Various programming languages were available to them, including BASIC, Fortran, the scripting of Unix commands, assembly language, and B. The last of these, a descendant of a BCPL (Basic Combined Programming Language), ultimately evolved into the immensely popular C language, which Ritchie created while also working on Unix. The first edition of Unix let programmers call 34 different low-level routines built into the operating system. It’s a testament to the system’s enduring nature that nearly all of these system calls are still available—and still heavily used—on modern Unix and Linux systems four decades on. For its time, first-­edition Unix provided a remarkably powerful environment for software development. Yet it contained just 4200 lines of code at its heart and occupied a measly 16 KB of main memory when it ran. Unix’s great influence can be traced in part to its elegant design, simplicity, portability, and serendipitous timing. But perhaps even more important was the devoted user community that soon grew up around it. And that came about only by an accident of its unique history. The story goes like this: For years Unix remained nothing more than a Bell Labs research project, but by 1973 its authors felt the system was mature enough for them to present a paper on its design and implementation at a symposium of the Association for Computing Machinery. That paper was published in 1974 in the Communications of the ACM. Its appearance brought a flurry of requests for copies of the software. This put AT&T in a bind. In 1956, AT&T had agreed to a U.S government consent decree that prevented the company from selling products not directly related to telephones and telecommunications, in return for its legal monopoly status in running the country’s long-distance phone service. So Unix could not be sold as a product. Instead, AT&T released the Unix source code under license to anyone who asked, charging only a nominal fee. The critical wrinkle here was that the consent decree prevented AT&T from supporting Unix. Indeed, for many years Bell Labs researchers proudly displayed their Unix policy at conferences with a slide that read, “No advertising, no support, no bug fixes, payment in advance.” With no other channels of support available to them, early Unix adopters banded together for mutual assistance, forming a loose network of user groups all over the world. They had the source code, which helped. And they didn’t view Unix as a standard software product, because nobody seemed to be looking after it. So these early Unix users themselves set about fixing bugs, writing new tools, and generally improving the system as they saw fit. The Usenix user group acted as a clearinghouse for the exchange of Unix software in the United States. People could send in magnetic tapes with new software or fixes to the system and get back tapes with the software and fixes that Usenix had received from others. In Australia, the University of New South Wales and the University of Sydney produced a more robust version of Unix, the Australian Unix Share Accounting Method, which could cope with larger numbers of concurrent users and offered better performance. By the mid-1970s, the environment of sharing that had sprung up around Unix resembled the open-source movement so prevalent today. Users far and wide were enthusiastically enhancing the system, and many of their improvements were being fed back to Bell Labs for incorporation in future releases. But as Unix became more popular, AT&T’s lawyers began looking harder at what various licensees were doing with their systems. One person who caught their eye was John Lions, a computer scientist then teaching at the University of New South Wales, in Australia. In 1977, he published what was probably the most famous computing book of the time, A Commentary on the Unix Operating System, which contained an annotated listing of the central source code for Unix. Unix’s licensing conditions allowed for the exchange of source code, and initially, Lions’s book was sold to licensees. But by 1979, AT&T’s lawyers had clamped down on the book’s distribution and use in academic classes. The anti­authoritarian Unix community reacted as you might expect, and samizdat copies of the book spread like wildfire. Many of us have nearly unreadable nth-­generation photocopies of the original book. End runs around AT&T’s lawyers indeed became the norm—even at Bell Labs. For example, between the release of the sixth edition of Unix in 1975 and the seventh edition in 1979, Thompson collected dozens of important bug fixes to the system, coming both from within and outside of Bell Labs. He wanted these to filter out to the existing Unix user base, but the company’s lawyers felt that this would constitute a form of support and balked at their release. Nevertheless, those bug fixes soon became widely distributed through unofficial channels. For instance, Lou Katz, the founding president of Usenix, received a phone call one day telling him that if he went down to a certain spot on Mountain Avenue (where Bell Labs was located) at 2 p.m., he would find something of interest. Sure enough, Katz found a magnetic tape with the bug fixes, which were rapidly in the hands of countless users. By the end of the 1970s, Unix, which had started a decade earlier as a reaction against the loss of a comfortable programming environment, was growing like a weed throughout academia and the IT industry. Unix would flower in the early 1980s before reaching the height of its popularity in the early 1990s. For many reasons, Unix has since given way to other commercial and noncommercial systems. But its legacy, that of an elegant, well-designed, comfortable environment for software development, lives on. In recognition of their accomplishment, Thompson and Ritchie were given the Japan Prize earlier this year, adding to a collection of honors that includes the United States’ National Medal of Technology and Innovation and the Association of Computing Machinery’s Turing Award. Many other, often very personal, tributes to Ritchie and his enormous influence on computing were widely shared after his death this past October. Unix is indeed one of the most influential operating systems ever invented. Its direct descendants now number in the hundreds. On one side of the family tree are various versions of Unix proper, which began to be commercialized in the 1980s after the Bell System monopoly was broken up, freeing AT&T from the stipulations of the 1956 consent decree. On the other side are various Unix-like operating systems derived from the version of Unix developed at the University of California, Berkeley, including the one Apple uses today on its computers, OS X. I say “Unix-like” because the developers of the Berkeley Software Distribution (BSD) Unix on which these systems were based worked hard to remove all the original AT&T code so that their software and its descendants would be freely distributable. The effectiveness of those efforts were, however, called into question when the AT&T subsidiary Unix System Laboratories filed suit against Berkeley Software Design and the Regents of the University of California in 1992 over intellectual property rights to this software. The university in turn filed a counterclaim against AT&T for breaches to the license it provided AT&T for the use of code developed at Berkeley. The ensuing legal quagmire slowed the development of free Unix-like clones, including 386BSD, which was designed for the Intel 386 chip, the CPU then found in many IBM PCs. Had this operating system been available at the time, Linus Torvalds says he probably wouldn’t have created Linux, an open-source Unix-like operating system he developed from scratch for PCs in the early 1990s. Linux has carried the Unix baton forward into the 21st century, powering a wide range of digital gadgets including wireless routers, televisions, desktop PCs, and Android smartphones. It even runs some supercomputers. Although AT&T quickly settled its legal disputes with Berkeley Software Design and the University of California, legal wrangling over intellectual property claims to various parts of Unix and Linux have continued over the years, often involving byzantine corporate relations. By 2004, no fewer than five major lawsuits had been filed. Just this past August, a software company called the TSG Group (formerly known as the SCO Group), lost a bid in court to claim ownership of Unix copyrights that Novell had acquired when it purchased the Unix System Laboratories from AT&T in 1993. As a programmer and Unix historian, I can’t help but find all this legal sparring a bit sad. From the very start, the authors and users of Unix worked as best they could to build and share, even if that meant defying authority. That outpouring of selflessness stands in sharp contrast to the greed that has driven subsequent legal battles over the ownership of Unix. The world of computer hardware and software moves forward startlingly fast. For IT professionals, the rapid pace of change is typically a wonderful thing. But it makes us susceptible to the loss of our own history, including important lessons from the past. To address this issue in a small way, in 1995 I started a mailing list of old-time Unix ­aficionados. That effort morphed into the Unix Heritage Society. Our goal is not only to save the history of Unix but also to collect and curate these old systems and, where possible, bring them back to life. With help from many talented members of this society, I was able to restore much of the old Unix software to working order, including Ritchie’s first C compiler from 1972 and the first Unix system to be written in C, dating from 1973. One holy grail that eluded us for a long time was the first edition of Unix in any form, electronic or otherwise. Then, in 2006, Al Kossow from the Computer History Museum, in Mountain View, Calif., unearthed a printed study of Unix dated 1972, which not only covered the internal workings of Unix but also included a complete assembly listing of the kernel, the main component of this operating system. This was an amazing find—like discovering an old Ford Model T collecting dust in a corner of a barn. But we didn’t just want to admire the chrome work from afar. We wanted to see the thing run again. In 2008, Tim Newsham, an independent programmer in Hawaii, and I assembled a team of like-minded Unix enthusiasts and set out to bring this ancient system back from the dead. The work was technically arduous and often frustrating, but in the end, we had a copy of the first edition of Unix running on an emulated PDP-11/20. We sent out messages announcing our success to all those we thought would be interested. Thompson, always succinct, simply replied, “Amazing.” Indeed, his brainchild was amazing, and I’ve been happy to do what I can to make it, and the story behind it, better known.

In the most setups the actual server only acts as the host system for the jails while the applications themselves run within those independent containers. Traditionally every jail has it’s own IP for the user to be able to address the individual services. But if you’re still using IPv4 this might get you in trouble as the most hosters don’t offer more than one single public IP address per server. Create the internal network In this case NAT (“Network Address Translation”) is a good way to expose services in different jails using the same IP address. First, let’s create an internal network (“NAT network”) at 192.168.0.0/24. You could generally use any private IPv4 address space as specified in RFC 1918. Here’s an overview: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Privatenetwork. Using pf, FreeBSD’s firewall, we will map requests on different ports of the same public IP address to our individual jails as well as provide network access to the jails themselves. First let’s check which network devices are available. In my case there’s em0 which provides connectivity to the internet and lo0, the local loopback device. options=209b [...] inet 172.31.1.100 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 172.31.1.255 nd6 options=23 media: Ethernet autoselect (1000baseT ) status: active lo0: flags=8049 metric 0 mtu 16384 options=600003 inet6 ::1 prefixlen 128 inet6 fe80::1%lo0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x2 inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 0xff000000 nd6 options=21``` > For our internal network, we create a cloned loopback device called lo1.

By this moment you should already have a clue of which services you want to expose. If this is not the case, just fix that file later on. In my example configuration, I have a jail running a webserver and another jail running a mailserver: Public IP address IP_PUB="1.2.3.4" Packet normalization scrub in all Allow outbound connections from within the jails nat on em0 from lo1:network to any -> (em0) webserver jail at 192.168.0.2 rdr on em0 proto tcp from any to $IP_PUB port 443 -> 192.168.0.2 just an example in case you want to redirect to another port within your jail rdr on em0 proto tcp from any to $IP_PUB port 80 -> 192.168.0.2 port 8080 mailserver jail at 192.168.0.3 rdr on em0 proto tcp from any to $IP_PUB port 25 -> 192.168.0.3 rdr on em0 proto tcp from any to $IP_PUB port 587 -> 192.168.0.3 rdr on em0 proto tcp from any to $IP_PUB port 143 -> 192.168.0.3 rdr on em0 proto tcp from any to $IP_PUB port 993 -> 192.168.0.3 > Now just enable pf like this (which is the equivalent of adding pf_enable=YES to /etc/rc.conf): sysrc pf_enable="YES" > and start it: service pf start Install ezjail > Ezjail is a collection of scripts by erdgeist that allow you to easily manage your jails. pkg install ezjail > As an alternative, you could install ezjail from the ports tree. Now we need to set up the basejail which contains the shared base system for our jails. In fact, every jail that you create get’s will use that basejail to symlink directories related to the base system like /bin and /sbin. This can be accomplished by running ezjail-admin install > In the next step, we’ll copy the /etc/resolv.conf file from our host to the newjail, which is the template for newly created jails (the parts that are not provided by basejail), to ensure that domain resolution will work properly within our jails later on: cp /etc/resolv.conf /usr/jails/newjail/etc/ > Last but not least, we enable ezjail and start it: sysrc ezjail_enable="YES" service ezjail start Create a jail > Creating a jail is as easy as it could probably be: ezjail-admin create webserver 192.168.0.2 ezjail-admin start webserver > Now you can access your jail using: ezjail-admin console webserver > Each jail contains a vanilla FreeBSD installation. Deploy services > Now you can spin up as many jails as you want to set up your services like web, mail or file shares. You should take care not to enable sshd within your jails, because that would cause problems with the service’s IP bindings. But this is not a problem, just SSH to the host and enter your jail using ezjail-admin console. EuroBSDcon 2018 Talks & Schedule (https://2018.eurobsdcon.org/talks-schedule/) News Roundup OpenBSD on an iBook G4 (https://bobstechsite.com/openbsd-on-an-ibook-g4/) > I've mentioned on social media and on the BTS podcast a few times that I wanted to try installing OpenBSD onto an old "snow white" iBook G4 I acquired last summer to see if I could make it a useful machine again in the year 2018. This particular eBay purchase came with a 14" 1024x768 TFT screen, 1.07GHz PowerPC G4 processor, 1.5GB RAM, 100GB of HDD space and an ATI Radeon 9200 graphics card with 32 MB of SDRAM. The optical drive, ethernet port, battery & USB slots are also fully-functional. The only thing that doesn't work is the CMOS battery, but that's not unexpected for a device that was originally released in 2004. Initial experiments > This iBook originally arrived at my door running Apple Mac OSX Leopard and came with the original install disk, the iLife & iWork suites for 2008, various instruction manuals, a working power cable and a spare keyboard. As you'll see in the pictures I took for this post the characters on the buttons have started to wear away from 14 years of intensive use, but the replacement needs a very good clean before I decide to swap it in! > After spending some time exploring the last version of OSX to support the IBM PowerPC processor architecture I tried to see if the hardware was capable of modern computing with Linux. Something I knew ahead of trying this was that the WiFi adapter was unlikely to work because it's a highly proprietary component designed by Apple to work specifically with OSX and nothing else, but I figured I could probably use a wireless USB dongle later to get around this limitation. > Unfortunately I found that no recent versions of mainstream Linux distributions would boot off this machine. Debian has dropped support 32-bit PowerPC architectures and the PowerPC variants of Ubuntu 16.04 LTS (vanilla, MATE and Lubuntu) wouldn't even boot the installer! The only distribution I could reliably install on the hardware was Lubuntu 14.04 LTS. > Unfortunately I'm not the biggest fan of the LXDE desktop for regular work and a lot of ported applications were old and broken because it clearly wasn't being maintained by people that use the hardware anymore. Ubuntu 14.04 is also approaching the end of its support life in early 2019, so this limited solution also has a limited shelf-life. Over to BSD > I discussed this problem with a few people on Mastodon and it was pointed out to me that OSX is built on the Darwin kernel, which happens to be a variant of BSD. NetBSD and OpenBSD fans in particular convinced me that their communities still saw the value of supporting these old pieces of kit and that I should give BSD a try. > So yesterday evening I finally downloaded the "macppc" version of OpenBSD 6.3 with no idea what to expect. I hoped for the best but feared the worst because my last experience with this operating system was trying out PC-BSD in 2008 and discovering with disappointment that it didn't support any of the hardware on my Toshiba laptop. > When I initially booted OpenBSD I was a little surprised to find the login screen provided no visual feedback when I typed in my password, but I can understand the security reasons for doing that. The initial desktop environment that was loaded was very basic. All I could see was a console output window, a terminal and a desktop switcher in the X11 environment the system had loaded. > After a little Googling I found this blog post had some fantastic instructions to follow for the post-installation steps: https://sohcahtoa.org.uk/openbsd.html. I did have to adjust them slightly though because my iBook only has 1.5GB RAM and not every package that page suggests is available on macppc by default. You can see a full list here: https://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/6.3/packages/powerpc/. Final thoughts > I was really impressed with the performance of OpenBSD's "macppc" port. It boots much faster than OSX Leopard on the same hardware and unlike Lubuntu 14.04 it doesn't randomly hang for no reason or crash if you launch something demanding like the GIMP. > I was pleased to see that the command line tools I'm used to using on Linux have been ported across too. OpenBSD also had no issues with me performing basic desktop tasks on XFCE like browsing the web with NetSurf, playing audio files with VLC and editing images with the GIMP. Limited gaming is also theoretically possible if you're willing to build them (or an emulator) from source with SDL support. > If I wanted to use this system for heavy duty work then I'd probably be inclined to run key applications like LibreOffice on a Raspberry Pi and then connect my iBook G4 to those using VNC or an SSH connection with X11 forwarding. BSD is UNIX after all, so using my ancient laptop as a dumb terminal should work reasonably well. > In summary I was impressed with OpenBSD and its ability to breathe new life into this old Apple Mac. I'm genuinely excited about the idea of trying BSD with other devices on my network such as an old Asus Eee PC 900 netbook and at least one of the many Raspberry Pi devices I use. Whether I go the whole hog and replace Fedora on my main production laptop though remains to be seen! The template user with PAM and login(1) (http://oshogbo.vexillium.org/blog/48) > When you build a new service (or an appliance) you need your users to be able to configure it from the command line. To accomplish this you can create system accounts for all registered users in your service and assign them a special login shell which provides such limited functionality. This can be painful if you have a dynamic user database. > Another challenge is authentication via remote services such as RADIUS. How can we implement services when we authenticate through it and log into it as a different user? Furthermore, imagine a scenario when RADIUS decides on which account we have the right to access by sending an additional attribute. > To address these two problems we can use a "template" user. Any of the PAM modules can set the value of the PAM_USER item. The value of this item will be used to determine which account we want to login. Only the "template" user must exist on the local password database, but the credential check can be omitted by the module. > This functionality exists in the login(1) used by FreeBSD, HardenedBSD, DragonFlyBSD and illumos. The functionality doesn't exist in the login(1) used in NetBSD, and OpenBSD doesn't support PAM modules at all. In addition what is also noteworthy is that such functionality was also in the OpenSSH but they decided to remove it and call it a security vulnerability (CVE 2015-6563). I can see how some people may have seen it that way, that’s why I recommend reading this article from an OpenPAM author and a FreeBSD security officer at the time. > Knowing the background let's take a look at an example. ```PAMEXTERN int pamsmauthenticate(pamhandlet *pamh, int flags _unused, int argc _unused, const char *argv[] _unused) { const char *user, *password; int err; err = pam_get_user(pamh, &user, NULL); if (err != PAM_SUCCESS) return (err); err = pam_get_authtok(pamh, PAM_AUTHTOK, &password, NULL); if (err == PAM_CONV_ERR) return (err); if (err != PAM_SUCCESS) return (PAM_AUTH_ERR); err = authenticate(user, password); if (err != PAM_SUCCESS) { return (err); } return (pam_set_item(pamh, PAM_USER, "template")); } In the listing above we have an example of a PAM module. The pamgetuser(3) provides a username. The pamgetauthtok(3) shows us a secret given by the user. Both functions allow us to give an optional prompt which should be shown to the user. The authenticate function is our crafted function which authenticates the user. In our first scenario we wanted to keep all users in an external database. If authentication is successful we then switch to a template user which has a shell set up for a script allowing us to configure the machine. In our second scenario the authenticate function authenticates the user in RADIUS. Another step is to add our PAM module to the /etc/pam.d/system or to the /etc/pam.d/login configuration: auth sufficient pamtemplate.so nowarn allowlocal Unfortunately the description of all these options goes beyond this article - if you would like to know more about it you can find them in the PAM manual. The last thing we need to do is to add our template user to the system which you can do by the adduser(8) command or just simply modifying the /etc/master.passwd file and use pwdmkdb(8) program: $ tail -n /etc/master.passwd template::1000:1000::0:0:User &:/:/usr/local/bin/templatesh $ sudo pwdmkdb /etc/master.passwd As you can see,the template user can be locked and we still can use it in our PAM module (the * character after login). I would like to thank Dag-Erling Smørgrav for pointing this functionality out to me when I was looking for it some time ago. iXsystems iXsystems @ VMWorld ###ZFS file server What is the need? At work, we run a compute cluster that uses an Isilon cluster as primary NAS storage. Excluding snapshots, we have about 200TB of research data, some of them in compressed formats, and others not. We needed an offsite backup file server that would constantly mirror our primary NAS and serve as a quick recovery source in case of a data loss in the the primary NAS. This offsite file server would be passive - will never face the wrath of the primary cluster workload. In addition to the role of a passive backup server, this solution would take on some passive report generation workloads as an ideal way of offloading some work from the primary NAS. The passive work is read-only. The backup server would keep snapshots in a best effort basis dating back to 10 years. However, this data on this backup server would be archived to tapes periodically. A simple guidance of priorities: Data integrity > Cost of solution > Storage capacity > Performance. Why not enterprise NAS? NetApp FAS or EMC Isilon or the like? We decided that enterprise grade NAS like NetAPP FAS or EMC Isilon are prohibitively expensive and an overkill for our needs. An open source & cheaper alternative to enterprise grade filesystem with the level of durability we expect turned up to be ZFS. We’re already spoilt from using snapshots by a clever Copy-on-Write Filesystem(WAFL) by NetApp. ZFS providing snapshots in almost identical way was a big influence in the choice. This is also why we did not consider just a CentOS box with the default XFS filesystem. FreeBSD vs Debian for ZFS This is a backup server, a long-term solution. Stability and reliability are key requirements. ZFS on Linux may be popular at this time, but there is a lot of churn around its development, which means there is a higher probability of bugs like this to occur. We’re not looking for cutting edge features here. Perhaps, Linux would be considered in the future. FreeBSD + ZFS We already utilize FreeBSD and OpenBSD for infrastructure services and we have nothing but praises for the stability that the BSDs have provided us. We’d gladly use FreeBSD and OpenBSD wherever possible. Okay, ZFS, but why not FreeNAS? IMHO, FreeNAS provides a integrated GUI management tool over FreeBSD for a novice user to setup and configure FreeBSD, ZFS, Jails and many other features. But, this user facing abstraction adds an extra layer of complexity to maintain that is just not worth it in simpler use cases like ours. For someone that appreciates the commandline interface, and understands FreeBSD enough to administer it, plain FreeBSD + ZFS is simpler and more robust than FreeNAS.

When I am curious about some UNIXcommands’ implementation, I will refer to OpenBSD source code, and I actually gain something every time. E.g., refresh socket programming skills from nc; know how to process file efficiently from cat. b) A better test bed. Although my work focus on developing programs on Linux, I will try to compile and run applications on OpenBSD if it is possible. One reason is OpenBSD usually gives more helpful warnings. E.g., hint like this: ...... warning: sprintf() is often misused, please use snprintf() ...... Or you can refer this post which I wrote before. The other is sometimes program run well on Linux may crash on OpenBSD, and OpenBSD can help you find hidden bugs. c) Some handy tools. E.g. I find tcpbench is useful, so I ported it into Linux for my own usage (project is here). (2) What I give back to OpenBSD? a) Patches. Although most of them are trivial modifications, they are still my contributions. b) Write blog posts to share experience about using OpenBSD. c) Develop programs for OpenBSD/BSD: lscpu and free. d) Porting programs into OpenBSD: E.g., I find google/benchmark is a nifty tool, but lacks OpenBSD support, I submitted PR and it is accepted. So you can use google/benchmark on OpenBSD now. Generally speaking, the time invested on OpenBSD is rewarding. If you are still hesitating, why not give a shot? ##Beastie Bits BSD Users Stockholm Meetup BSDCan 2018 Playlist OPNsense 18.7 released Testing TrueOS (FreeBSD derivative) on real hardware ThinkPad T410 Kernel Hacker Wanted!

Qui es-tu Sandrine?Je suis technicienne en informatique depuis 1999, plus précisément en support technique. J’ai commencé par utiliser un Commodore 64 avant l’age de mes 10 ans. Dans les années 90, j’ai appris à utiliser MsDOS 3.1 à 6.x, Windows 3.1 sur les ordinateurs de mes amis(es). Malgré que je ne possédais pas d’ordinateurs autres que mon Commodor 64 à la maison, je réparais et configurais ceux des autres.J’ai étudié au Cégep en Génie électrique, plus précisément en Technologie des systèmes ordinés. Dans ces cours, j’appris l’électricité, l’électronique analogique et numérique, le C++, la programmation de microcontrôleur en assembleur, Novell 3.11, Windows NT, Slackware 3(Linux), Windows 98, etc.Mon implication dans le monde du libre se fait de plusieurs façons, mais elles sont toutes un point en commun, le partage de connaissance.Je m’intéresse beaucoup au milieu Maker(DIY), le côté open source du matériel(hardware). J’aime partager avec d’autres mes découvertes et apprendre des autres. Exemple : Le 17 mars dernier, je suis aller Trois-Rivières pour l’événement “World Create Day”. C’était un événement ou des gens se rencontrait pour montrer ce qu’ils font et apprendre des autres avec des Raspberry Pi(sous linux), Arduino et autres plate forme ouverte en électronique et informatique.Par la suite, j’aime bien partager mes découvertes par l’entremise du Podcast BlogueLinux que j’ai joint il y a environ 3 ans. J’avais aussi mon podcast Free Trans Radio, mais par manque de temps j’ai mis le projet sur la glace. C’était un podcast libertarien avec un penchant LGBT. Oui, je suis libertarienne et transgenre. Libertarienne et le monde du libre selon moi vont de paire et je suis tellement Geek et Hacker que j’ai même hacker ma propre personne. C’est quoi le BlogLinux ?Blogue Linux est un podcast qui a été démarré par Patrick Millette et Éric il y a un peu plus de 6 ans. J’ai joint l’équipe du podcast il y a 3 ans après une invitation de la part de Patrick sur Twitter pour une émission aprescast et j’ai fini par y rester. Par manque de temps et d’intérêt Éric a quitté il y a quelques mois, en laissant la porte ouverte pour des visites et peut-être ne sait on jamais un retour.Blogue Linux est un podcast sur la technologie en général, s’il y a un processeur, un micro contrôleur c’est certain qu’on va en parler. Mais nous avons un penchant très fort pour l’open source et Linux.Pourquoi l’univers du libre?Le monde du libre est passionnant parce qu’il nous offre une quantité presque l’inépuisable de possibilité… Et si on ne trouve pas ce qu l’on cherche, il nous est possible de joindre la communauté du libre et d’y apporter notre grain de sel à celui-ci.Vous n’aimez pas une interface graphique, changer le… vous aimez la musique, vous y trouverez des dizaines de lecteurs multimédias pour tous les goûts ainsi que des dizaines de solutions pour créer votre propre musique. Et bien plus… Tout cela est possible sur un ordinateur modeste, librement, et gratuit. Que vous soyez programmeurs, artistes, maker ou simples utilisateurs, vous y trouverez chaussure à vos pieds.Qu’est-ce qui fait qu’on devrait tous s’y intéresser ?La réponse est simple, plus de gens s’y intéressent plus le monde du libre sera vivant et passionnant… et plus nous aurons une diversité de solution informatique pour rendre notre quotidien plus facile, plus agréable et plus libre.Mais une des grandes forces que la communauté du libre a, s’cet le nombre de gens impliqués et l’ouverture du code de programmation des programmes qu’ils créent. Le monde du libre ne cache pas ce qu’ils font et lors de découverte de brèches de sécurité dans leurs programmes et services, des dizaines de personnes se penchent sur le problème et en un rien de temps une solution est trouvée et elle est partagée.Les recommandationsPour les débutantsPour les débutants, je vais dire comme Patrick de BL… Commencer par utiliser des applications libres sur Windows ou Mac. Jetez un coup d’oeil à Firefox, Thunderbird, LibreOffice, GIMP… Changer directement pour Linux peut être difficile et déconcertant. Trouver la bonne application pour remplacer celles que l’on utilise depuis des années peut être difficile et décourageant.Pour les intermédiaires et plus aventureuxVous pouvez télécharger des distributions Linux, les mettre sur des clefs USB ou CD pour les essayer sans l’installer. Et ensuite une fois satisfait l’installer.Qu’est-ce qu’une distribution Linux… C’est un groupe de gens qui offre une saveur de Linux… Un peu comme les crèmes glacées. Linux c’est l’ingrédient principal de la crème glacée et on trouve plusieurs groupes qui offrent différentes marques avec différentes saveurs. Certaines sont sans gras, d’autres sans lactose et d’autre triple chocolat.Pour les débutants à intermédiaire, je propose toutes les saveurs qu’offre Ubuntu et ces dérivés. Ubuntu, Kubuntu, Xubuntu, Lubuntu, Mint, etc.Pour les intermédiairesDebain, manjaro, etcPour les expertsEt pour les experts, Arch Linux, Gentoo, etc.Linux c’est bon, pas cher et surtout c’est beauhttps://www.dexteroid.com/linux/best-good-looking-linux-distro/Pour les enfantsGcomprisLes gagnants du concours pour recevoir la nouvelle “Mon offre” de Guillaume Poggiaspalla.Etienne BRETTEVILLEOlivier @overb62SylvainLaf (sur iTunes)

This time we talk about ... stuff? andstuffpodcast@gmail.com @andstuffpodcast on twitter soyeahandstuff.podbean.com Walker decided to get a TWSBI Eco after reading a blog post by David Rea going into a bit of physics and materials science. Cameron is mildly interested in pens, but couldn't do a whole podcast about it like "those guys". This primer on nibs explains what a "stub nib" is. Despite hearing about them many times, this blog post by Brad Dowdy is probably what made Walker decide to actually look into getting a pen with one. Nathan of Noodler's ink has a youtube video up about the story behind the "Charlie" eyedropper pen that Walker talked about. Cameron wants to get more into uploading videos. Looks like he did since we recorded. Here's a link to Walker's old shredder unboxing video. Look at all the potential discussion topics on wikipedia to use during unboxing videos! Walker found DIY cat tree/condo inspiration here. The kind of "fake joinery" Walker is doing is mostly inspired by the Mere Mortals Workbench designed by Steve Ramsey, although lots of people use this technique. Here's an article for further reading on types of twine. Here's another one. Walker is mixing other people's old forgotten tracks that he found on a Zoom R16 multi-track recorder. Here's Bob Clagget's first Arduino Programming Tutorial video on the I Like To Make Stuff channel. And here is Making It, the podcast he does. More information about arduino can be found on the website. This is what Process Controls is. Controls engineers use something called SCADA. Walker will soon be working with slivers. Arch Linux and its wonderful online documentation can be found here. When using GNU/Linux on a computer Cameron usually uses Lubuntu, a spin of Ubuntu, and Walker usually uses Debian, but sometimes uses Fedora. The desktop environment is the part of many GNU/Linux systems that actually determines what things you see on the screen. Cameron uses LXDE, while Walker is all about XFCE. Here is the Bakelite video on Periodic Videos. Love this channel. Some tracker-based music programs for linux are qtractor and lmms. Walker can't remember which one he used to make the And Stuff Opening Theme Song. Amsynth is the softsynth Cameron has been experimenting with. Walker recommends using a kernel with the PREEMPT_RT patch for music production. He uses a kernel for Fedora that comes patched from Planet CCRMA at Stanford University. It seems that similar things are available for Ubuntu. The programs Walker rattles off that he uses in music production are Jack, Whysynth, Hexter, Alsamodularsynth. Thanks for listening!
