02:58.08InocuousHow do I make my installation of Devuan as secure as possible? is there firewall, or a utility to easily setup iptables?
03:13.26DocScrutinizer05ksx4system: I'm two days late
03:16.36DocScrutinizer05hmm, I wonder if opensuse-firewall2 would work on any system with iptables/netfilter
03:17.50DocScrutinizer05>>SuSEfirewall2 is basically a script that generates iptables rules from configuration stored in the /etc/sysconfig/SuSEfirewall2 file.<<
03:19.42Inocuousc
03:19.50DocScrutinizer05mot that i'd think it's particularly good or anything, it's simply just the only one I know
03:19.56InocuousThanks for the reply. I missed it.
03:19.56DocScrutinizer05not*
03:20.28InocuousI get mixed feedback some people say I don't need anything. I don't know.
03:21.49DocScrutinizer05well
03:22.50DocScrutinizer05a) there are definitely better firewalls out there, than this entry level suse-fw2. b) I get same mixed feedback and I have no notion
03:24.28DocScrutinizer05I think the more nasty software like systemd or PolypAudio or dbus you're running on your system, the more you'll need a sane firewall catching up the BS those softwares may do without you even noticing
03:29.43Inocuousso is this already installed an working in a new installation?
03:32.52debdogno, the opensuse-firewall is not available as a devuan package
03:34.02debdogthere is, however, firewalld. not that I've ever used it, thoug
03:34.36debdoghttp://www.firewalld.org/
03:34.53debdogbut non of them is installed/enabled by default
03:36.04Inocuousthanks debdog
03:37.01InocuousI'm so used to windows.
03:38.51debdogjust stubled on puppet for which a firewall module is available.
03:39.35debdoghttp://projects.puppetlabs.com/projects/puppet
03:41.46debdoghmm, prolly not suited here
03:52.55InocuousI just installed firewalld. It seems to be working.
03:58.18ksx4systemInocuous, debdog: why not ufw?
03:59.40ksx4systemit's very simple yet powerful enough for any desktop and most of server instances
03:59.55Inocuousisn't that ubuntu?
03:59.56*** join/#devuan DocScrutinizer05 (~saturn@openmoko/engineers/joerg)
04:01.22debdogksx4system: wasn't aware oif that. thanks!
04:01.29ksx4systemInocuous: afair it's python based, works like a charm under Devuan :)
04:02.05ksx4systemdebdog: enjoy :)
04:02.16debdoghaha
04:03.32InocuousI found one website that scans your ports for you to see if they are open or not, this site only does 8 ports but they were all good.
04:04.13ksx4systemInocuous: nmap -A -T4 -Pn 1.2.3.4 (change to your real IP, scan from another computer)
04:05.02ksx4systemthat's what I use to check ports :)
04:07.17ksx4systemand if you'll use ufw remember to "ufw limit ssh" and *not* "ufw allow ssh"
04:07.46ksx4system(yes, this has ghetto fail2ban replacement)
04:11.12Trilso how do I report bugs in devuan
04:11.56DocScrutinizer05ksx4system: that sounds dang useful

05:13.16golinuxfirewalld coming from Redhat/Fedora? The 'd' should give you a clue why it's probably not a good idea to go there.  ;)
05:21.21nextimegolinux: as long as it doesn't depend on systemd and it's in line with the unix philosophy of do one thing and do it well, firewalld is welcome in devuan
05:21.33nextime( i don't really know it, never used it )
05:25.15golinuxIt relies on D-bus
05:25.32golinuxIsn't that something we'd like to get rid of?
05:27.16nextimegolinux: as long as it can be removed or you can choose to run without it, it's ok to have it in the repo
05:27.30nextimemaybe we will remove it in default install ( at least for non-desktop installs )
05:27.41nextimebut this doesn't mean that it needs to be unavailable
05:27.44golinuxI did some searches and it seems to be all tied up with services
05:27.48golinuxTo start the service and enable FirewallD on boot:
05:27.48golinux1
05:27.48golinux2
05:27.48golinux
05:27.48golinuxsudo systemctl start firewalld
05:27.49golinuxsudo systemctl enable firewalld
05:28.13nextimereally this isn't meaning that it depend on systemd
05:28.26nextimeanyway, as i say, i DON'T know it
05:28.26golinuxfirewalld.service - firewalld - dynamic firewall daemon
05:28.27golinux<PROTECTED>
05:28.44nextimebut as long as it can be used without systemd and launched by sysvinit or manually
05:28.48nextimeit's ok to have it in the repo
05:28.53DocScrutinizer05WOOOT  firewall with dbus, BINGO
05:29.57golinuxI don;t know it either but coming from the Redhat camp guilty until proven innocent.
05:30.00DocScrutinizer05I don't care if it's available in devuan, but I'm pretty sure I don't want a firewall that uses dbus
05:30.40nextimei just got 5kg of pure mercury, wow!
05:30.46nextimeit's OT
05:31.04golinuxMaybe there's a way around systemd but is it worth it?
05:31.23golinuxI'll bite . . . what's that for?
05:31.56nextimegolinux: are you talking about firewalld or the mercury?
05:32.02golinuxmercury
05:32.18nextimegolinux:  i don't yet know, but i will find something to do with it
05:32.19nextime:D
05:32.26DocScrutinizer05yay
05:32.47golinuxGood grief!  Isn't that dangerous with kids around?
05:32.50nextimesomeone is suggesting me to build an internet connected steampunk barometer with it :P
05:33.35golinuxAnyway . . . bedtime here
05:33.37nextimegolinux: in my laboratory there are plenty of very dangerous things, and my kids are well educated to enter in my laboratory only when i'm in and don't touch anything without my prior permission
05:35.44DocScrutinizer05mercuric fulminate, will be much and loud fun to contaminate around one square mile of countryside
05:36.34nextimelol
05:37.30DocScrutinizer05or build a proton source and turn it into gold ;-)
05:38.00nextimewell, i'm working on things you don't expect from sane people
05:38.48nextimefor exami have this in my personal todo list: http://www.instructables.com/id/Build-A-Fusion-Reactor/
05:38.57nextimes/exami/example
05:40.31DocScrutinizer05hmm fusion sounds fun
05:40.49DocScrutinizer05might be useful for the hg->au project as well
05:45.13DocScrutinizer05apropos - did you already check natural lightning for neutron radiation from fusion?

08:25.47enycherrrms.... devian using same codename 'jessie' as debian this is confusing my chroot naming
08:26.22enycif 'testing' is to use a different name "ascii" , should stable do similarly ??
08:31.52DusXMTenyc: Jessie is named Jessie, but not as the toy in Toy Story (the debian case), but as in the dwarf planet. (ascii is also a name of a dwarf planet iirc) I guess the first stable release was decided to have the same name to signify it as a diverging point, as something the same but not quite, and it'll just diverge more and more. But that's just a thought, might not be correct

12:07.36parazydit's just that it's not free software

12:12.00DusXMT"Free Software" is the predcessor of Open Source, by the way; but unlike Open Source, it focuses more on the phylosophical part of the issue (Open Source advocates generally have no problem with using proprietary software, including the founder himself)
12:12.19InocuousI'm all about stopping systemd but when they distribute a software with no limit on the evaluation period. That's splitting hairs with being free.
12:13.48DusXMTInocuous: But does it provide the 4 basic freedoms? Either way, it's everyone's personal choice whether they want to use non-free software or not, I don't want to be anyone's moral judge here (as no one likes that), but I think the freedoms are important
12:14.08DusXMTs/important/very important/
12:15.05InocuousYou are very principled. I respect that.
12:19.20InocuousIf I could ask, what are the four basic freedoms you referenced DusXMT ?
12:19.42zdzichuInocuous: I've provided a link to them 10 minutes ago
12:19.55DusXMT14:08 < zdzichu> Inocuous: https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.html
12:23.35Inocuoussorry, I missed the link before.
12:25.33InocuousDo you limit yourself to using only software that fits this criteria? I mean, what if you need some specific thing that there is no free, (as outlined there) version for?
12:26.29zdzichumaybe you forgot in which channel you are
12:26.58zdzichuthis is a development channel for devuan, a distribution made from debian, which is built around those 4 freedoms
12:27.20DusXMTIf I'd need it for school or work, then i'd unfortunately have to use it. Otherwise, I I'd find an alternative; so far I can do everything I need with free software
12:29.52InocuousI'm not against the view you have, I like devuan but I don't apply as stringent requirements on the other software I use.
12:30.46InocuousPlease understand I'm not being critical or judgemental, I'm just discussing
12:32.17parazydInocuous: even debian doesn't package sublime, if that's your issue

15:03.07Inocuousmy window manager Xfce has 3 options for program/system notifications as far as style and color. Anyone know if this is something that can be added to? modified? does it require a tool of some sort perhaps?
15:06.20InocuousI found a channel for Xfce but it's not very well populated.
15:27.12fsmithredI've seen ZOMG-PONIES in /usr/share/themes, but I never knew what that theme was for.
15:27.41fsmithredyou should be able to use that or Smoke as a guide, and create your own theme.
15:28.29fsmithredInocuous, did you try changing the theme to see what those others look like?
15:28.30golinuxInocuous: You might look here http://xfce-look.org/
15:28.36fsmithredI'm afraid of the ponies.
15:28.50golinuxI use smoke
15:30.26fsmithredI assume the notification themes and the desktop themes are structured differently, since themes are accessible to one or the other, but not both.
15:31.18fsmithredOh! It's just a gtkrc.
15:31.37fsmithredInocuous, yes, it's hackable. Easily.
15:32.50InocuousIs it text file?
15:32.55fsmithredyes
15:33.55InocuousNice. that's what I like!
15:36.53fsmithredgogle for XfceNotifyWindow to find information.
15:36.54InocuousI was able to add a menu item yesterday. Of course then I found that the app had already put one in under a new menu group.
15:37.16Inocuousgreat! thank you very much fsmithred
15:37.17fsmithredlol
15:37.37fsmithredyeah, customizing the menu in xfce is kind of a pain.
15:37.59golinuxInocuous: Just reading the scrollback . . . it is very risky to install packages from ubuntu or other repos than devuan.
15:38.18golinuxYou could easily end up with a frankendevuan.
15:38.26fsmithredgolinux, I start with the assumption that it's bad to mix repos.
15:38.55Inocuousgood point. So far though,that's been my only deviation.
15:38.58fsmithredYears ago, I killed a zenwalk system that way. Fixed it by switching to debian.
15:39.34fsmithredYes, you can get away with it with no problems in some cases.
15:39.40golinuxYou may not see the consequences for a while.
15:39.42fsmithredMaybe even many cases. I don't know.
15:39.46fsmithredtrue.

16:01.35golinuxcrhylove: Just read your review.
16:01.41golinuxWelcome aboard!!
16:02.14golinuxBut seems you haven't heard about this http://www.pcworld.com/article/3036509/linux/iceweasel-will-be-renamed-firefox-as-relations-between-debian-and-mozilla-thaw.html
16:04.30golinuxSo iceweasel will be going away.  That makes me sad . . .
16:04.58MinceRfirefox is going to hell anyway
16:05.37DusXMTYeah, I liked iceweasel as one was allowed to mess with it however one wanted; it's going to be more difficult with Firefox (especially when it comes to porting it to different platforms)
16:06.11golinuxYeah it's going down the tubes
16:06.48DusXMTThough personally, I find that Firefox' performance to have degraded significantly since around version 24, and so I've switched to Seamonkey, which supposedly uses the same web engine, but runs much smoother in my experience
16:07.00golinuxBut that link was in response to this review posted while I was sleeping: https://crhylove.wordpress.com/2016/05/07/imma-ready-do-this-a-modest-devuan-beta-1-review/
16:07.58InocuousPersonally I found Chromium under Ubuntu to be very good. I don't know, is it available for Devuan?
16:08.20fsmithredI believe chromium is no longer maintained.
16:08.43golinuxI have an update waiting on Devuan
16:08.43DusXMTnot to mention that it only worked on x86-based computers the last time I checked
16:08.44Inocuousthat's too bad, but anyway, iceweasel has been doing well for me
16:08.52muep_my impression is that the software is, but no idea about packaging

16:09.41golinuxKDE  . . . ugh
16:09.44fsmithredbut maybe what I say is not true - there's a much newer version in jessie than in wheezy
16:09.46DocScrutinizer05indeed
16:10.09DusXMTpets epiphany

16:11.22golinuxNo other browser was a customizable as FF back in the day
16:11.24DocScrutinizer05hellekin: honestly * */6 * * *   is a _very_ poor idea ;-)
16:11.31fsmithredInocuous, I'm pretty sure konqueror is still in kde
16:11.54golinuxwith all the bloat included
16:12.02DocScrutinizer05at very least make that 33 */6 * * *
16:12.25DusXMTgolinux: I've heard that they cut down a lot of the bloat in KDE5, but I've never used it myself, so...
16:13.00DusXMT(but yeah, I've used KDE4 at one time, and it was making a fast machine feel outdated x3)
16:13.23DocScrutinizer05Inocuous: (konqueror updated) not so much
16:13.24muep_imo, the refactoring for KDE5 seems more relevant for those who wish to use just some KDE-ish application outside KDE
16:13.42golinuxDusXMT: I installed KDE once.  Never again
16:13.54DusXMThas to agree
16:14.15golinuxEven the apps pull in way too much cruft
16:14.31DocScrutinizer05installed gnome once and never again ;-)
16:15.02DusXMThasn't even tried Gnome3 yet, don't have any systemd-based system to test it on =3
16:16.00rain1hello
16:16.20DocScrutinizer05re KDE I have to add that I tweaked it heavily since KDE1, so it does not exactly look, feel, behave like the default KDE4 install
16:17.25DocScrutinizer05hates bloatware like akonadi though
16:18.21DocScrutinizer05it's same evil design principles like systemd, just for desktop
16:19.33DusXMTI guess konqueror doesn't really need all that many updates if it uses libwebkit as a shared library, since most security features and new web features would probably get added there
16:19.51DusXMTs/security features/security updates/
16:20.45DusXMT(same with epiphany and friends)
16:20.47muep_https://blogs.gnome.org/mcatanzaro/2016/02/01/on-webkit-security-updates/
16:21.20rain1what do you think of zeitgeist
16:21.44muep_webkit based stuff seems like something where some extra care would be useful
16:22.36DocScrutinizer05(akonadi) KDE starts it during session start when file indexing for desktop search is enabled (something I never do so I failed to notice for long time), and then it happily starts polling all your mail accounts, even when you don't have anything started you'd think was a mail client. Go figure! And the KDE folks don't even consider this a major flaw, of course the won't pay my salary when I get fired for reaching out of corporate LAN
16:22.37DocScrutinizer05without even noticing
16:24.30DocScrutinizer05honestly akonadi my ass, WTF?!
16:25.00DusXMTmuep_: I guess that's why I hand-compile my browser :) A browser's something that interfaces the web, a place full of all kinds of nasty javascript and other stuffs, it's important to be up-to-date
16:25.52nextimeDusXMT: and you also read and debug all the browser code every time you compile it?
16:26.10rain1:\
16:26.14nextimethere is no point in compile it every time
16:26.16muep_DusXMT: is it a webkit based browser? are you also rebuilding the webkit libs?
16:26.36nextimea browser it a huge mess of many things, many with dangers
16:26.55nextimethe right way is to isolate multiple browsers for different things
16:27.11DocScrutinizer05https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Akonadi  >>Akonadi communicates with servers to fetch and send data instead of applications through a specialized API.<< YAYAYA
16:27.30nextimesomething like the concepts in qubeos
16:27.35nextimeseparation and isolation
16:27.41DusXMTnods
16:28.38nextimeso, don't use the same browser in the same environment for pornhub and your bank website
16:28.46muep_I think the akonadi concept was pretty neat. for example it'd allow the calendar thing in desktop panel to know what events I have in calendar. but the implementation did not ever seem to get good
16:28.47nextimeand so on
