strange behaviour with route-to, default route, and ping -I

Hello, I use route-to in my pf.conf to route packets from my LAN through 4 non-equal WAN links (multipath routing is disabled). It works nicely, but if I try to send pings from the firewall itself through a specific WAN interface with ping -I or traceroute -s commands, it's always the default

Fan Speed - Supermicro

Hi, I know this is probably a simple question, but we have searched, found very little, and tried various things to no effect. We have a Supermicro server running OpenBSD which is _screaming_ loud due to fan noise. BIOS is latest and power mode is "Balanced" (during POST it is nice and quiet

Ok you are right im sorry. Im definitively sure that iridium(its like chromium) is getting slower after a couple of weeks. Its so slow that im waiting 7+ sec to start. Also cpu is high and everything on the browser is really slow. The problem is solved when i clean my history etc. Now it takes

Re: Fan Speed - Supermicro

Just to share for others here. This worked a treat! I never knew that on BMC based systems, the fan control was taken away from the OS by IPMI like this. Simply set it to "Optimal", and now the fan speed is controlled automatically based on the different temperatures. Surprised this is the
