Alas, I have to consider some other hardware that is more BSD friendly than what I currently have for my main laptop. Wifi worked great on NetBSD, whereas it was flaky on FreeBSD, but the audio input was the flaky one.

A ThinkPad, maybe? I'll gladly accept hardware recommendations for BSD-friendly models from at least a decade ago (read: cheap).

Do you live in Guernsey?
Do you use FreeBSD?
Do you want to financially support its continued development?

If you answered 'yes' to all of these questions, then I have good news for you - the FreeBSD Foundation's payment provider have made some fixes so you can now donate from Guernsey!

You should also get in touch with me so that we can start a user group :-)

When you see me holding a Macbook at BSDCan, you need to understand, it's running FreeBSD

silverwizard,

Any wifi people have some time? I'm using an ancient bwn card and this threahd (last post) is making me think there's a reversion to something because it's the only mention I can find using 14.0 forums.ghostbsd.org/viewtopic.…

I've already built a kernel accepting the GPL so I'm not super afraid of getting my hands dirty

(I can provide better info in a bit, but the linked forum thread is my exact steps, which, once it was crashing the same way, lead me to that thread)

Seems that to this day a package for is still not built for the raspberrypi in 14-RELEASE. Without it, Office365 isn't 100% usable in it, and I'm forced to choose Debian at work despite the huge performance gap.

Cuh-mon, :(

(N.B.: 100% would ditch it to use only Firefox if the support was the same, but alas, it's MS after all)

Here's how you can use tcpdump command to capture and record specific network traffic, protocols and ports on #Linux, #Unix, #macOS (OS X) and BSD systems like #FreeBSD. This tool is essential for sysadmins and developers to debug networking issues. https://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/tcpdump-capture-record-protocols-port/

"login shell for this non-admin user is not active for security reasons."

Congrats on breaking all of my staging bastions w/the 24.x upgrade!

The excuse, "it is what it is" from Franco: https://forum.opnsense.org/index.php?topic=38665.0 :blobfoxangrylaugh:

Bastions restricting SSH to only allow non-{root/admin} users is proper security, yet Franco thinks only root level accounts should get SSH? 🙄

Goodbye . Migrating bastions to a custom BSD-RP image w/ proper security

Just a thought… Wouldn’t it be nice if capsicum in could be used in such way that you didn’t need to alter binaries, but from e.g. daemon(8) which would jail your binaries with the restricted capabilities

@rvstaveren There you go:

It is called oblivious sandboxing AFAIK.

Ryan Stone has worked on it at one point. I don't remember the details though.
