Lots of excellent reasons.
Is there any document available which describes your concept of how
systems running OpenBSD are used?
E.g. mobile laptop, home user desktop, office desktop, single local
net server, multiple local servers,
single gateway, multihomed gateway, server(s) to general world, etc, etc.
If those aren't valid categories, could you mention what are valid ones.
I'd like some idea of where your concept of the 99% vs 1% division lies.
The usage case is irrelevant. We are the developers and we get to make
the decisions without creating a 'document'. You overstate your
position by demanding an explanation. We don't even need to be replying
to these rude emails.
Sorry if this came over as rude. I'm trying to get information to plan
for the next
couple of years.
The situation is actually pretty simple:
dhclient is not strongly priv-seperated, and pretty much the riskiest
program people run on their machines. People have gotten addicted to
it.
Agreed. It's a fragile <mess>
In 2016 we held a hackathon whiteboard session and come up with a rough
design that would satisfy all the resolver-related security concerns.
All the pieces have now been written, and we will continue the
refinement in-tree.
Thank you very much. That's what I needed to know.
If you insist upon a document I am sure florian and I can come up with
one, please contact us privately for Standard Rates.
You've answered my question - thank you for taking the time.
Four sentences are plenty.
