Moin,
auf einem Server von Stefan läuft nun eine neue VM: files.ffnw.de
Die beherbergt sowohl die Firmware als auch die Cloud. Auf lange Sicht
können wir uns also von srv01 trennen, den ich gestern zum
nächstmöglichen Zeitpunkt (2.2.18) gekündigt habe,
Grüße
Hi,
ich sitze gerade auf appsrv01.ffnw.de und wundere mich sehr, dass dort Ubuntu
läuft. Bisher haben wir immer strikt auf Debian gesetzt und ich würde dabei
gerne bleiben.
Ich finde Ubuntu ist eine tolle Distribution. Ich hatte sie bereits mehrfach
produktiv im Einsatz und habe gute Erfahrungen gemacht. Aber mit dem Einsatz
zweier (oder mehr) verschiedenartiger Systeme in einem Team mit extrem
begrenzten personellen Ressourcen habe ich hingegen ganz schlechte Erfahrungen
gemacht.
Da wir bisher auf Debian gesetzt haben und ich keinen Grund sehe von Debian
auf ein Debian-Derivat zu wechseln bzw. ein solches parallel einzusetzen
möchte ich gerne anregen dass wir bei Debian bleiben und unsere bisher sehr
homogene Serverlandschaft erhalten.
Es ist so, dass es zwischen beiden Systemen durch aus hin und wieder kleinere
Unterschiede gibt (spätestens im Migrationsprozess zwischen zwei Versionen)
und genau diese Unterschiede waren damals bei uns in der Firma ein extremer
Zeitfresser und Frustfaktor den wir dann zum Glück aufgelöst haben. Denn für
diese Stellen muss doppelt Doku gepflegt und doppelt Fehlersuche betrieben
werden und das will wirklich niemand.
Vielleicht kann sich derjenige der das aufgesetzt hat ja mal eben melden ob
dieses System aus unlösbaren Gründen so erhalten bleiben muss oder ob ich es
bei Zeiten auf Debian migrieren kann.
Viele Grüße
Clemens

In our 722nd issue:
* Who Has Your Back?
While many technology companies continue to step up their privacy game by adopting best practices to protect sensitive customer information when the government demands user data, telecommunications companies are failing to prioritize user privacy when the government comes knocking.
Even tech giants such as Apple, Facebook, and Google can do more to fully stand behind their users.
EFF's seventh annual “Who Has Your Back” report digs into the ways many technology companies are getting the message about user privacy in this era of unprecedented digital surveillance.
We evaluated the public policies at 26 companies and awarded stars in five categories, with nine companies earning a perfect five-star score this year: Adobe, Credo, Dropbox, Lyft, Pinterest, Sonic, Uber, Wickr, and Wordpress. Each has a track record of defending user privacy against government overreach and improved on their practices to meet the more stringent standards in this year's Who Has Your Back.
AT&T, Comcast, T-Mobile, and Verizon scored the lowest, each earning just one star. While they have adopted a number of industry best practices, like publishing transparency reports and requiring a warrant for content, they still need to commit to informing users before disclosing their data to the government and creating a public policy of requesting judicial review of all National Security Letters.

* Tell Congress: We Want Trade Transparency Reform Now!
The failed Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) was a lesson in what happens when trade agreements are negotiated in secret. Powerful corporations can lobby for dangerous, restrictive measures, and the public can't effectively bring balance to the process. Now, some members of Congress
are seeking to make sure that future trade agreements, such as the renegotiated version of NAFTA, are no longer written behind closed doors. We urge you to write your representative and ask them to demand transparency in trade.
Passage of this bill may be the best opportunity that we'll have to avoid a repetition of the closed, secretive process that led to the TPP. With the renegotiation of NAFTA commencing with the first official round of meetings in Washington, D.C. next month, it's urgent that these
transparency reforms be adopted soon. You can help by telling your representative in Congress to support the bill in committee.

EFF Updates
* Deciphering China's VPN Ban
Apple removed several Virtual Private Network (VPN) applications that allowed users to circumvent China's extensive Internet censorship apparatus from its Chinese mainland app store. In effect, the company has once again aided the Chinese government in its censorship campaign against its own citizens.
By locking down their devices, Apple can be forced to strip a feature--access to the full, global Internet--from its own products. When the manufacturer controls what kind of software you can have on your devices, it creates a single chokepoint for free expression and privacy.
https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2017/08/deciphering-chinas-vpn-ban
* Internet Censorship Bill Would Spell Disaster for Speech and Innovation
There's a new bill in Congress that would threaten your right to free expression online.
Don't let its name fool you: the Stop Enabling Sex Traffickers Act (SESTA, S. 1693) wouldn't help punish sex traffickers. What the bill would do is expose any person, organization, platform, or business that hosts third-party content on the Internet to the risk of overwhelming
criminal and civil liability if sex traffickers use their services. For small Internet businesses, that could be fatal: with the possibility of devastating litigation costs hanging over their heads, we think that many entrepreneurs and investors will be deterred from building new businesses
online.

* Bassel Khartabil, In Memoriam
Bassel Khartabil--the Syrian open source developer, blogger, entrepreneur, hackerspace founder, and free culture advocate--has been executed by the Syrian authorities. Noura Ghazi Safadi, his wife, received confirmation of her husband's death by the Assad-led Syrian government this month.
We at EFF are heartbroken at the news of Bassel's unjust and unlawful killing. The single consolation is that Bassel, before and after his detention, inspired so many to join the cause he cared so much about. https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2017/08/bassel-khartabil-memoriam
* Stupid Patent of the Month: HP Patents Reminder Messages
The Patent Office recently issued a patent to HP on reminder messages. It's yet another example of the Patent Office failing to consider real products when assessing prior art before issuing a patent. Set yourself a reminder message: this stupid patent on reminder messages will expire on December 16, 2035.

* Throttling on Mobile Networks May Be a Sign of Things to
Come Major mobile carriers are slowing down video streams, a net neutrality violation that heralds things to come if they get their way and roll back legal protections against data discrimination.
Right now, these throttling technologies seem to be used to slow down video data generally, rather than to favor the ISP's content over competitors, but that reality may not be far off.
Without net neutrality protections, little will stop carriers from using that same throttling infrastructure to discriminate against competitors, speech they dislike, or your favorite app.
https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2017/07/throttling-mobile-networks-sign-thing…
* The Pregnancy Panopticon
There are a staggering number of applications for Android and iOS which claim to help people keep track of their monthly cycle, know when they may be fertile, or track the status of their pregnancy. These apps entice the user to input the most intimate details of their lives.
EFF and Gizmodo reporter Kashmir Hill have taken a look at some of the privacy and security properties of nearly twenty different fertility and pregnancy tracking applications.
After uncovering several privacy issues and security flaws, we conclude that while these applications may be useful and engaging, women should carefully consider the privacy and security tradeoffs before deciding to use any of these applications.
https://www.eff.org/wp/pregnancy-panopticon
* Librarians Call on W3C to Rethink its Support for DRM
The International Federation of Library Associations and Institutions (IFLA) has called on the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) to reconsider its decision to incorporate digital locks (sometimes referred to as digital rights management or simply DRM) into official HTML standards.
The IFLA expressed concern that making it easier to impose tech-based protections against infringement without accommodating "legitimate uses of work" puts librarians and other professionals in legal danger when they come across DRM in the course of their work.
EFF is in the process of appealing W3C's controversial decision, and we're urging the standards body to adopt a covenant protecting security researchers from anti-circumvention laws.
https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2017/07/librarians-call-w3c-rethink-its-suppo…
* Border Agents May Not Search Travelers’ Cloud Content
Border agents may not use travelers' laptops, phones, and other digital devices to access and search cloud content "regardless of whether those servers are located abroad or domestically," according to a new document by U.S. Customs and Border Protection published by NBC on July 12.
Much more must be done to protect travelers' digital privacy at the U.S. border. An excellent first step would be to enact Sen. Wyden's (D-OR) bipartisan bill to require border agents to get a warrant before searching the digital devices of U.S. persons.

* Australian PM Calls for End-to-End Encryption Ban
When Australian Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull stated that "[t]he laws of mathematics are very commendable but the only law that applies in Australia is the law of Australia," he was rightly mocked for this nonsense claim.
A ban on end-to-end encrypted messaging in Australia would have no effect on law breakers, who would simply switch to apps that use strong end-to-end encryption. It would instead hurt ordinary citizens who rely on encryption to make sure that their conversations are private.
If enough countries go down the same misguided path, the future could be a new international agreement banning strong encryption. Indeed, the Prime Minister's statement is explicit that this is what he would like to see.

Guten Tag zusammen,
ich bin seit vergangenen Freitag dabei, ein Geschwindigkeitsproblem in
mehreren Hoods auf den Grund zu gehen.
Heute haben wir Erkenntnis darüber erlangt, dass es wohl ein
Hardwaredefekt an einem Hostsystem gibt. Um die aktuellen Netzsituation
ersteinmal zu entspannen, habe ich daraufhin das v6 Routing in alle
Hoods deaktiviert. Sobald wir hier nach Rücksprache mit dem Hoster neue
Hardware verbaut bekommen, wird dieses wieder aktiviert.
Entschuldigt bitte die Störung, aber weitere Nachfragen (diese haben ich
seit einigen Tagen massenweise erhalten) sind nicht notwendig.
Viele Grüße,
Stefan

Hi,
auf srv01.ffnw.de lief noch ein Dist-Upgrade. Das habe ich abgebrochen und neu
angestoßen sodass auf der Kiste jetzt Debian 9 läuft.
Aber Achtung: Viele der Puppet-Module sind noch nicht für Debian 9 getestet
sodass ich noch etwas warten würde bevor wir andere Server hochziehen. Es sei
denn das hat schon jemand ausgiebig getestet ;)
Viele Grüße

Hi,
Stefan hatte mich gebeten die Änderungen auf puppet.ffnw.de ins Git zu
bringen. Alles was dort an Änderungen lag, habe ich in den master-Branch
eingebracht.
Ich habe außerdem das Modul-Management von dem Verfahren mittels Submodulen
auf ein Verfahren mittels des Puppet Librarian migriert. Das einzige
verbliebene Submodul ist das "data"-Submodul in dem die Node-Files liegen. Das
erschien mir ganz sinnvoll, weil das Handling mittels Submodulen nicht ganz
einfach erscheint und der Librarian sich auch gleich um die Abhängigkeiten
kümmert.
Alles andere wird über das sog. Puppetfile (in kombination mit Puppetfile.lock)
gemanaged. Siehe https://git.nordwest.freifunk.net/ffnw-puppet/puppet/blob/
master/Puppetfile
Infos zum Puppet Librarian: http://librarian-puppet.com/
Diese Änderungen sind erstmal nur im Master-Branch sowie auf puppet.ffnw.de
aktiv. Bitte um Review und dann kann das auch in den Production-Branch.
Viele Grüße
Clemens
