New ISP using FTTH |
Posted by admin on Wednesday, 14 February 2018 - 22:58
|
|
 Having had the possibility to order FTTH (Fiber to the Home) for half the price of what our current provided charged us for ADSL v2, we decided to give it a try.
After some hickups (fiber could not pass due to the sheath stuck outside of our property under the road), I had to make ti pass through the neighbors connection point. That being done, we finally have the FTTH connected to our MPOE, and after having removed the ADSL limitations to keep interactive connections interactive, we now ha...

UPS added to MPOE |
Posted by admin on Saturday, 14 January 2017 - 12:57
|
|
 As the current stormy weather caused quite lots of power interruptions, I wondered if the lower internet connectivity quality in the last months was not due to the fact that the MPOE had no UPS backup. Checking this on my logs, a correlation on poor internet connectivity and ADSL Modem moved to the MPOE, existed. Knowing this, I finally got a UPS and connected the MPOE's power supply to this UPS. The fact that many people in france actually use electric heating reduces the voltage of the cur...

NAS (OMV) Has been upgraded |
Posted by admin on Wednesday, 16 November 2016 - 20:47

|
 to Debian Jessie (8.x), and OMV to v3.x. The main issue was that in the move from Debian Wheezy to Jessie, the init-system was moved from SystemV Init to SystemD - with all the changes this implies. Also - quite some quircks needed to be fixed on the Docker-Containers (Before the upgrade, I made the mistake to Apply ACL's to all directories - including the docker-container directory). The Apple netatalk failed, as did the SMB configuration when upgrading OMV 2.x to 3.x. Also, some configuration ...

Servers and NAS moved to basement |
Posted by admin on Sunday, 2 October 2016 - 23:15
|
|
 It was a long Weekend, but I finally managed to move the Servers out of the office into the Basement. That is, Web/Mail Server and UPS went into one 10" rack, while the NAS and a new firewall based on Shorewall went into a Smaller 10"rack.
As a new MPOE was also setup some weeks ago, 8x1Gbps Cat6a SFP cables were set over to the server racks. The NAS is now connected using 2x1Gbps bonding. The max-speed per channel may only be 1Gbps, however 2 systems can s...

New MPOE for home network |
Posted by admin on Monday, 12 September 2016 - 22:41
|
|
 After some thinking, a new Main Point Of Entry MPOE setup has been installed in the basement. The idea is to put Cat6 cabling into the entire house (actually, using the old phone-line conduits havong unshielded cheap cables), and the central hub of all the conduits was the basement.
The MPOE was chosen to be large enough to also host the first point of contact with the local Telco. In the current case ADSL, while end of the year fiber is planned. Note that moving the ADSL Modem i...

 The RC Models database has been released. It is based mostly on the dyntbl extension which enables users to create and configure their own storage systems while taking advantage of the secured code of the phpPhobos website.
So far - the only accessible interface is the RC Model Listing for people to be able to see the models. Going on the details of the models, one can see what hardware is being used and the details will provide even more insight on the used hardware devices and batteries.[...

Certificates from letsencrypt movement |
Posted by admin on Monday, 2 May 2016 - 18:30
|
|
 New keys and certificates have been created using the code from the Letsencrypt.org movement. At the same time, the allowed cipher combinations to reach the web-server have been reduced to a set of strong/high secure ones.
Also - the mail-server (SMTP and IMAP) has received a set of new key/certificates, and also the allowed Ciphers and protocols have been restricted further to allow only high grade encryption to pass.
The Certificate warning err...

Blacklisting reaction improved |
Posted by admin on Sunday, 24 April 2016 - 22:48
|
|
 Since I noticed some script-kiddies to actually launch a distributed cross-site-scripting and directory traversal attacks, and at the same time spawn 5 to 10 jobs per site, the blacklisting reaction time needed to be shortened and enhanced.
What happens now is that the system not only reacts on par with the remote attackers request, but it also tells the firewall to directly terminate all active connections to the attackers IP address.
The first reports have shown that the first re...
