Debian has shown willing in the past to make fixes allowing the correct building of containers, I don't see why they would drop this now 1418812870 M * beng_ hope uselessd project comes on quickly 1418813183 M * Ghislain http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/ContainerInterface/ 1418813218 M * Ghislain Do not drop CAP_MKNOD from the container., Do not drop CAP_SYS_ADMIN from the container. 1418813705 M * Ghislain beng_: agreed this container part should be an option not a core forced feature 1418813797 M * beng_ that page has irritated me, feels like its saying that if you aren't doing their prescribed take on containers, you aren't doing them right 1418813845 M * beng_ not sure what we can do with an attitude like that 1418813915 M * beng_ well next stage for me is to try this all out 1418813963 M * beng_ I'll have a go at getting Debiam Jessie installed 1418814101 M * beng_ Bertl, do you have patches for any newer kernels in the works?

1418818456 M * ard for my arm environment I use a home build lxc, since debian lxc more or less requires systemd, which can not be used for booting 1418818461 M * ard beng_ : just hosts... 1418818477 M * ard on guests I haven't seen systemd, since they mostly are wheezy+backports 1418818508 M * ard or ubuntu 14.04 which work flawlesly right now in lxc 1418818517 M * ard so they probably work on vserver too 1418818531 M * beng_ really looking like a hard release cycle for Debian/Ubuntu 1418818541 A * ard had a rough time installing ubuntu a few years back 1418818544 M * ard due to upstart 1418818561 M * ard But upstart is now pretty stable... 1418818578 M * beng_ but they are dropping it for systemd 1418818594 M * ard Yes, next year... 1418818601 M * ard 14.04 will be there a long time 1418818616 M * ard and when that needs to be upgraded, we have uselessd 1418818620 M * ard :-) 1418818639 M * beng_ I'm hoping I can hold out until there's a less intrusive system for sure 1418818642 M * ard or maybe systemd then finally is a bit stable and better behaved 1418818653 M * ard sysv-core is installable... 1418818669 M * beng_ it's really not looking like systemd is progressing to being better behaved 1418818677 M * ard on jessie you don't need to run systemd, but you must be very careful to always install sysv-core 1418818687 M * beng_ top tip ard, thanks 1418818709 M * ard I got 3 systems hosed like that... do an upgrade, not paying attentions, and boom, not bootable anymore 1418818719 M * beng_ sysvinit-core do you mean? 1418818727 M * ard yes, I think so 1418818732 M * ard sysvinit-core and systemd-shim 1418818879 M * ard systemd-shim will install a cgroup manager thing, which is incompatible with the debian build lxc. 1418818915 M * ard the debian lxc maintainer and the cgroup manager maintainer and upstream lxc maintainer have differing opinions 1418818916 M * beng_ so basically Debian arm doesn't upgrade safely to Jessie at the moment? 1418818931 M * ard It does I think... 1418818939 M * ard just make sure about the sysvinit-core 1418818951 M * ard I had to unplug my emmc, and fix it in another arm... 1418818979 M * ard or did I boot with bin/bash 1418819007 M * beng_ "the debian lxc maintainer and the cgroup manager maintainer and upstream lxc maintainer have differing opinions" - I have honestly never known such a mess around something so fundamental as an init system in the Linux community 1418819008 M * ard fortunately this ARM has a real serial console 1418819032 M * ard debian lost 4 good people on the systemd debacle 1418819047 M * ard 2 from the pro side, and 2 from the freedom side 1418819268 M * beng_ I hope there's some massive release delay that lets this get a bit more sorted 1418819289 M * beng_ filing bugs for all associated systemd problems is really the start 1418819351 M * ard debian has lost its server touch... 1418819372 M * ard I miss a lot of fcoe utilities... 1418819407 M * beng_ fibre channel?

"sshd that get's restarted on every interface that is configured (on a firewall with 100 interfaces...)" - surely that's easy to change? 1418819617 M * ard personally I am a bit hesistant to become a debian-maintainer... 1418819636 M * ard yes, you have to just enter exit 0; in some if-up.d/ script 1418819679 M * ard restarting is only necessary if you bind sshd to certain ip addresses, so it is not totally stupid 1418819697 M * beng_ if you do have packages available you want distributing, I have a repo you can use to host 1418819699 M * ard but if you bind to 0.0.0.0, you don't need the restart 1418819722 M * beng_ sure 1418819745 M * beng_ but binding to 0.0.0.0 breaks vserver, amongst other things 1418819749 M * ard I was considering setting up a repo myself... 1418819757 M * ard not on my installations ;-) 1418819765 M * beng_ how come? 1418819779 M * ard https://github.com/ardje/tem-vserver 1418819792 M * ard I use network namespaces... 1418819806 M * ard so the host and the vservers already have split ip stacks 1418819838 M * ard on some installations I use a shared ip stack per DMZ, but the host is like an out-of-band management thing 1418819877 M * beng_ good setup, I still haven't tried network namespaces, despite their availability for some time 1418819916 M * ard Well, the thing is, there are 1000 ways to rome, but you all have to implement them yourself :-). 1418819953 M * ard my current scripts assume always a 2 vserver setup, with the second vserver having an ip +1 of the first. 1418819959 M * beng_ shame, would be good to have them an OOTB option 1418819969 M * ard mac addresses are generated from the ip 1418819990 M * ard you can use that package... 1418820004 M * ard But it still needs a lot of work 1418820019 M * ard it does run production however... 1418820101 A * ard has a firewall inside a vserver 1418820112 M * ard working, complete with ipvsadm and such 1418820194 M * beng_ :) 1418820195 M * ard and let's not forget, with l2 failover ;-) 1418820201 M * beng_ also :) 1418820242 M * ard I just create vrrp-gw devices configured and all, and when a failover occurs I just up the devices.... 1418820265 M * ard combine that with ipv6 radvd, and all switches are updated with the new location of the mac address :-) 1418820598 M * beng_ I've not used radvd, looks useful 1418820893 M * ard beng_ : what do you use to make debian repositories?
