Re: Frames and Motorola's New Router.
That wouldn't be a "Linux won't work" as much as it may be a driver incompatibility or, something that requires some setup. What brand is your wifi card?

Re: Frames and Motorola's New Router.
I think that is it. It is a new motorola router. On Monday, March 13, 2023 at 07:46:17 PM EDT, Thomas Charron wrote: He might mean protected management frames?

Jumbo frames aren't a security feature. They also work under Linux. They also don't make any sense on a home router, where the MTU for the WAN side will almost always be the same or less than regular Ethernet frames, let alone jumbo. -- Ben ___ gnhlug-discuss mailing list gnhlug-discuss@mail.gnhlug.org http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss/ ___ gnhlug-discuss mailing list gnhlug-discuss@mail.gnhlug.org http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss/ ___ gnhlug-discuss mailing list gnhlug-discuss@mail.gnhlug.org http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss/
Boston Linux VIRTUAL Meeting , re, minder, tomorrow, Wednesday, March 15, 2023 - Tinkering With Cryptography
When: March 15, 2023 7:00PM EDT (6:30PM for Q) Topic: Tinkering With Cryptography Speaker: Brian DeLacey Location: Online: https://meet.jit.si/blu.org Live stream: https://youtube.com/live/1H7Rbpq1LR8?feature=share Summary: Making cryptography more accessible and useful with Google's Tink Cryptographic Library Abstract: Brian covers the basics of a relatively new library from Google, with demonstration code running on multiple platforms. We'll also delve into some of the more advanced topics related to this code and take a special, deep dive into Key Management Systems. As part of the discussion, Brian explores the challenges of brittle bytes and how to achieve secure, authenticated access to critical data over time. Demos cover code running on tiny little machines and biggerbut still bargainbuilds. Demonstration code will be in Golang and Python, but the Tink Cryptographic Library also works well with C++, Java, mobile platforms and more. We'll also walk through and demonstrate code and the use of cryptography in “nostr”, which stands for “Notes and Other Stuff Transmitted by Relays”. According to its chief architect, nostr is “The simplest open protocol that is able to create a censorship-resistant global ”social“ network once and for all. It doesn't rely on any trusted central server, hence it is resilient; it is based on cryptographic keys and signatures, so it is tamperproof; it does not rely on P2P techniques, therefore it works.” Attachments Google's Tink Cryptographic Library: https://developers.google.com/tink awesome-A curated (GitHub): https://github.com/aljazceru/awesome-nostr nostr: a truly censorship-resistant alternative to Twitter (GitHub): https://github.com/nostr-protocol/nostr Apple News 2022-12-07: Apple advances user security with powerful new data protections: https://www.apple.com/newsroom/2022/12/apple-advances-user-security-with-powerful-new-data-protections/ For further information and directions please consult the BLU Web site: http://www.blu.org -- Jerry Feldman mailto:gaf.li...@gmail.com>> Boston Linux and Unix http://www.blu.org PGP key id: 6F6BB6E7 PGP Key fingerprint: 0EDC 2FF5 53A6 8EED 84D1 3050 5715 B88D 6F6 B B6E7 ___ gnhlug-discuss mailing list gnhlug-discuss@mail.gnhlug.org http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss/
