 eyJhb | Ended up writing to my ISP about it hexa , since my routes should be setup correctly etc. and the IPv6 I get from my ISP on my WAN has my prefix encoded in it. So there seems to be some funny business going on. :) | 13:48:42 |
| eyJhb | Also, it's such a small ISP, that I think we might only be 3 people max using our own router with them (w/ IPv6). So quite possible that there is something that isn't setup correctly. | 13:49:30 |
| eyJhb | However, small == nice in this case, as they are really really friendly | 13:49:39 |
 ErPepone | hexa: unfortunately it doesn't work, I still get the same error even if I disable parallel compilation | 17:39:35 |
 edrex | Wasn't there a channel for routers specifically at some point? | 18:30:37 |
| edrex | I want to ask if anyone knows of a web router frontend like eg LUCI from openwrt that can run on nixos. Just an info page with DHCP leases and that sort of thing is what I'm mostly after. | 18:32:00 |
| edrex | maybe cockpit has something | 18:32:23 |
| edrex | does it have good systemd-networkd support? | 18:32:54 |
| edrex | oh cockpit isn't packaged because of the porting effort needed. | 18:34:54 |
| * edrex realizes probably what I'm after is a grafana or similar dashboard | 19:18:38 |
 toonn | edrex: This room is the spiritual successor to #nixos-on-your-router@freenode (RIP). | 19:31:44 |
| ErPepone | hexa: maybe I have to define some env vars for PERL? | 19:35:08 |

edrex: This room is the spiritual successor to #nixos-on-your-router@freenode (RIP). Had completely forgotten that. I think networking could quite easily replace that. And somewhat think it has :) | 20:16:23 |
| edrex | seems like rooms need a baseline level of activity or they go silent except occasional spooky mansion visitors (sometimes with a background botologue). so maybe the rate of room specialization needs to wait for matching community growth. | 20:23:43 |
| edrex | matrix spaces sure are a nice upgrade for scaling multi-room communities though. | 20:24:13 |
| toonn | Botologue? | 20:26:57 |
| edrex | Yeah, like when there's a bot that drops a link every time there's a new event in some other systems, and the channel is completely dead otherwise | 20:28:07 |
| edrex | #nixos-wiki:utzutzutz.net is pretty much that RN | 20:29:10 |
| edrex | oof, cablemodems are universally terrible, true? | 20:30:04 |
| edrex | i got a supposedly business grade one but it still can't handle the link macaddr changing, and it stops routing traffic from time to time. maybe I got a lemon | 20:31:27 |
| edrex | does anyone know, with systemd-networkd's DHCPServer option, if there's a way to get something like dnsmasq's builtin DNS proxy with resolution for LAN hosts? | 20:40:52 |
| edrex | with dnsmasq I have a setup where it automatically resolves hostname.mydomain to local address if hostname is on the lan. | 20:42:53 |
| edrex | but maybe I should be doing intranet stuff on top of wireguard exclusively | 20:43:34 |
| toonn | I assume you want to avoid Avahi? | 20:43:49 |
| edrex | i usually run NSS/mDNS. not sure why it's not working on my bridge, need to troubleshoot that | 20:44:35 |
| edrex | it's such a pain to work around limitations in DNS, TLS, etc due to them being designed for large orgs rather than decentralized/ad hoc networks | 20:46:53 |
| edrex | ah, systemd-networkd acts as an mDNS responder as well as resolver (not sure if it provides a local API for service registration tho, I think it probably only advertises the hostname) | 21:11:57 |
| toonn | Ooh, if it does that might let me get rid of my awful mdns hack for nginx. | 21:53:06 |
| 22 Sep 2021 |
| edrex | i should say systemd-resolved acts as responder/resolver. it's not enabled by default but it can be enabled without networkd (it works with NetworkManager too). Also, mDNS isn't enabled by default, but needs to be enabled by a flag, but LLMNR (microsoft's version of mDNS) is enabled by default. resolvectl hostname resolution works for me via LLMNR between two of the hosts on my network, but not the other, and I haven't found any clues as to why. So either i need to fire up wireshark etc or try mDNS :) | 04:39:03 |
| edrex | what's your nginx mdns hack for? | 04:46:36 |
