Yes! Qsl cards are very much still alive and well. Some traditions will never die. The special event stations are fun to get cards from.
Super cool anecdote on the telescope thing, I've never heard of that.
I hope you get back on the radio, it's a great hobby. It's a nice stress relief outlet for me these days too.
Love to hear things like that! When I first got licensed the solar cycle was utter trash. We're past the peak now, but band conditions are still pretty good generally. A few watts and a wire will still get you somewhere with CW and some other forward error corrected modes (like FT8). I have a lot of fun with the digital stuff like AREDN, but it's definitely a different ball game and the old school SSB-based radio still has its place in my heart.
False positive what? I didn't give any specific examples of alerts, just simply monitoring metrics. Are you referring to the note on the Dnsmasq memory leak?
For any hams here, maybe this blog post will be up your alley. 73!
I write a tech and radio blog, if that's your schtick. If not, no worries. Post your rss feed when you're done!
They misspelled "backdoors."
The OIDC settings in the Authelia config reference were the most nebulous to me, but they weren't entirely stumping. The hard part was interpreting whether my errors stemmed from an issue on the client application side or on the Authelia side.
I would imagine you could likely extend the config snippets from my post to work in your situation with a few tweaks. The big lift, the OIDC provider is covered, so I'd be curious to hear what else you have to tweak!
Hey good for you, that's awesome! My home network is also dual stacked.
You're right about the apples to oranges comparison, but it's not so wildly off, because the commentary is on adoption of new standards, regardless of bolt-on "fixes." Unauthenticated SNMP went through three revisions prior to adding authentication and encryption support.
And IPv6 was codified in RFCs and first addresses issued in 1999 but look where we are now. I'd bet your corporate network doesn't use IPv6 still. It's unfortunate, but sometimes the wheels of change are slow.
Nagios is a premium offering. They have some open source components, but the software model is absolutely not built around the spirit of GPL.
Zabbix is the obvious alternative in my mind, and it is AGPLv3, so absolutely in the same spirit as the LibreNMS license. It's a slightly different tool though, and less network-specific. Having used both, I prefer LibreNMS for specifically network monitoring, it's laid out to cater more to an ISP-type entity running it, and I like that. Zabbix still gets my wholehearted stamp of approval though.
Updated the post to reflect your feedback here. Thank you!
