 1. Branded hosting by OpenBSD project

 I will be first in line to pay 2x of what I am paying now to host my
 domain on OpenBSD platform in Canada, knowing that it is looked after (or
 at
 least periodically checked) by core developers.

 No no you do not want this. I truly respect the OpenBSD Devs and I am sure
some of them run very successful production servers. However they are Devs,
its a totally different mindset than production support. Some switch very
quickly between the two, some do not.

Keep the Devs developing. Stop trying to reinvent this wheel. This is a
very successful project, probably more than than a few outside the core
team now.  OpenBSD code is everywhere.



Re: resolver question

2013-12-24 Thread Jeff O'Neal
Peter,

From the resolv.conf man page:

http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=resolv.confsektion=5


The domain and search keywords are mutually exclusive. If more than one
 instance of these keywords is present, the last instance will
override.

I believe what is happening is the search keyword is sticking
centroid.euto probably everything. This isn't a issue with the code,
its a
miss-configuration.
Of course I could be horribly wrong and someone might come over and kick my
dog to teach me a lesson

  I'm not clear on what the leak you are worried about is.

 Hi Ken, Merry Christmas!

 I was browsing http://chealth.canoe.ca when I saw the above log.  I'm
 supposing
 the resolver looks up chealth.canoe.ca, and then eventually does a lookup
 for
 chealth.canoe.ca.centroid.eu.  centroid.eu is the domain I configured in
 resolv.conf by means of DHCP.

 I'm wondering why it does that though?  Someone in the US, like the NSA,
 can
 then sit back and see my browsing habits, which I call a leak.  I'm hoping
 on
 finding the knob that turns this off.  The leak wouldn't happen if my
 centroid.eu nameservers were just in .de but then you can just replace NSA
 with BND the german intelligence sniffers (s/NSA/BND).

 I'd really just rather replace the function that allows
 chealth.canoe.ca.centroid.eu lookup to exit my DSL as all that should
 exit is
 a lookup for just chealth.canoe.ca, which takes a different lookup path
 in the
 Internet.

 Regards,

   My resolv.conf file looks like this on the workstation here in germany:
  
   jupiter$  more /etc/resolv.conf
   # Generated by re0 dhclient
   search centroid.eu
   nameserver 192.168.34.1
   domain centroid.eu
   lookup file bind
   family inet6 inet4
  
  
   The leak only happens with  queries, like said.  Any hints on
   tracking this down and squelching it?
  
   Regards,

 same thing that happens for any open source volunteer project, or any

 may not.  They may succeed in keeping the team together, they may not. 
 The project may improve, it may lessen.

What a bunch of worrying balony.

I have asexually reproduced a few times, and put the other copies of
myself in stasis.

In the event that I fall off a mountain or get attacked by group of
dogs in central Turkey, a copy is automatically brought out of statis
to continue to effort.

The process is so transparent, that you won't even know if it has
happened before...
