@hexa:lossy.networkhexahttps://mastodon.social/@pid_eins/11620720081533869800:22:03
@hexa:lossy.networkhexaforcing a systemd unit's sockets to be bound to an interface00:22:47
@hexa:lossy.networkhexauseful e.g. for vrfs00:22:53
@adam:robins.wtfadamcstephenswe still need a unit to setup the namespace though, right?12:33:59
@adam:robins.wtfadamcstephense.g. there's no systemd native way to create one? or has that changed12:35:39
@hexa:lossy.networkhexaI'd prefer not saying namespace for vrf because it easily confuses it with netns12:36:07
@hexa:lossy.networkhexathere is a native way to create a VRF with networkd12:36:21
@hexa:lossy.networkhexanetdevConfig.Kind = Vrf vrfConfig.Table = 133712:37:49
@hexa:lossy.networkhexasince vrfs are built upon policy routing you need to pick a routing table id12:38:06
@hexa:lossy.networkhexaand interface membership in the vrf is just12:38:46
@hexa:lossy.networkhexanetworkConfig.VRF = vrf-ifname12:38:55
@hexa:lossy.networkhexa until now you just needed to hack systemd units with ip vrf exec to spawn a process inside the vrf 12:39:21
@adam:robins.wtfadamcstephensyeah, nice improvement12:40:16
@adam:robins.wtfadamcstephensdoes he provide these highlights in any form besides mastodon? i've wanted to reference an old one and had to dig through there to find it12:43:56
@hexa:lossy.networkhexae.g. https://0pointer.net/blog/mastodon-stories-for-systemd-v259.html12:44:38
@adam:robins.wtfadamcstephensyes, exactly. thanks ❤️12:45:51

@tom:dragar.deTom For me it seems to be part of #topics:nixos.org (which itself is in #space:nixos.org). But that means ofc you need to be part of that space too (which you seem to be) and how this then all displayed is probably quite client and settings specific. 13:09:27
@elisaado:elisaado.comEli Saado

hmm yep, I'm part of that space

it doesn't display the room as part of the space on cinny or schildichat next, maybe it's time for a state reset (e.g. unlinking and relinking the room)
