How to get rid of all the warnings in Nextcloud.

After the installation of Nextcloud you check for security & setup warnings in the administration panel. Although you followed the pkg-readme for Nextcloud to the point you get some yellow entries there. In this article I show you how you can get rid of these.

Running a Docker Host under OpenBSD using vmd(8).

The OpenBSD virtual machine daemon works pretty well with Linux VMs nowadays. This was time for me to see if I could replace the Synology Docker service with some Docker host provided by vmd(8)...

OpenBSD: Manage DNS, DNSSEC (to automate TLSA records).

My DNS service run since 4 years, under OpenBSD native tool named nsd. I manage DNSSEC with ldns tools, a package into ports. In the facts, I use ldnscript tool to create all needed keys and manage DNSSEC. Starting Juin 2022, I decided to switch from RSA to use ECDSA. Before going any further in this direction, let’s move on to the installation of the necessary prerequisites necessary...

A few of my favourite things about the OpenBSD Packet Filter tools.

The OpenBSD packet filter (PF) was introduced a little more than 20 years ago as part of OpenBSD 3.0. In a series of two posts, I invite you to take a short tour of PF features and tools that I have enjoyed using. At the time the OpenBSD project introduced its new packet filter subsystem in 2001, I was nowhere near the essentially full-time OpenBSD user I would soon become. I did, however, quickly recognize that even what was later dubbed ’the working prototype’ was reported to perform better in most contexts than the code it replaced.

So I lost my OpenBSD FDE password.

The other day I set up a new OpenBSD instance with a nice RAID array, encrypted with Full Disk Encryption. And promptly proceeded to forget part of the passphrase...

mimmutable() for OpenBSD.

Virtual-memory systems provide a great deal of flexibility in how memory can be mapped and protected. Unfortunately, memory-management flexibility can also be useful to attackers bent on compromising a system. In the OpenBSD world, a new system call is being added to reduce this flexibility; it is, though, a system call that almost no code is expected to use.

GCC now includes Modula-2 and Rust. Do they work on OpenBSD?

Two new language frontends have been added to GCC: Modula-2 and Rust. I think this is great news on both accounts: having a Wirth language in GCC fills my childhood heart with joy (though I do wish GNU Pascal can one day be revived and mainlined, as Pascal was the first non-BASIC language I learned). And Rust appears here to stay, so having more than just the one official compiler seemed all but inevitable. I think both languages make sense for GCC and am glad to see that they will be making the upcoming GCC 13.1. Let's see how they fare on OpenBSD...
