Re: [DNG] systemd breaking linuxcnc ...

I've got around 80 servers running Ubuntu 16.04 and 18.04. I noticed the
time was yet again screwed up on them a few weeks ago. Not sure when it
started happening but would guess it was the last systemd update on
12/2019. All hosts are all running timesyncd (after trying to get Chrony
and NTP working). We ran regular old NTP for 8 years and system time was
never a problem. After we upgraded our old 14.04 hosts last year, time
syncing has been a major WTF/PITA. Luckily we don't run an NFS services
so it's mainly log correlation that gets screwed up. After seeing this
video, I'm like "aha, ok. Makes sense now".

[DNG] [OT] reboot did not work on Systemd based system

2019-12-03 Thread dev via Dng
Had to reboot a Debian based system this weekend to apply kernel patches
but it would not reboot. All commands (poweroff -p, reboot, init 6)
would return with this error message or similar:

   Failed to start reboot.target: Transaction is destructive.
   See system logs and 'systemctl status reboot.target' for details.

Systemctl produced no useful details whatsoever and only reiterated the
command line error in more verbosity. The only recourse was to power
cycle the system after a umount of the major filesystems.

Thank you Devuan for providing a stable and re-bootable system. The bar
continues to be lowered.

Seems like this would be a nice bridge for windows malware to infect linux.

Hi Martin,
Perhaps Proxmox could ship running Devuan one day? *wink,nudge*
