Universities selling their address space are probably oblivious to where it is going, but they should care. One day people are going to realize a lot of these high rep addresses are getting transferred to very different resource stewards.

Just added Web Reachability API (at least that’s what I’m calling it) support to https://ip.small-web.org.
It’s for testing the reachability of your Small Web servers (using a domain or, more importantly, an IPv4/IPv6 address). I’m using it to implement Web Numbers¹ support in Auto Encrypt² and Kitten³.

I got a free HP wireless printer, and it seems that it is not designed to work on a subnet other than the one where the print job is sent from.
I had to configure an Outbound NAT rule in pfSense so that traffic from print jobs is sent out with the pfSense IP address to trick the printer into thinking that the sender is on the same subnet.
What a hassle!

STM32MP2 PCIe bringup update: the PCIe IP has 4 MB of address space allocated to it, but touching anything past the first 2 MB seems to hang.
When I dump any of the register blocks in the first 2 MB, they all report the same Synopsys : 0550 device ID.
All of the registers are the same in each of the mirrors, with the exception of 8 bytes starting at 0x174 and 4 bytes starting at 0x728.
Somehow there has to be a way to see devices behind the root complex.

My rpi openwrt router is set up. If all works as intended I'll be surfing from my home IP address when @ my girlfriends house as it tunnels all trafic over tailscale to an exit node in my livingroom. That means.... that we can use my streaming services at her place without the provider is bugging me about another household. Well it's proof of concept right now so I'll let you know how it goes when it's installed at her place.

🥳 Minor releases
• Auto Encrypt 5.1.0: Moves automatic IP address detection from top-level await to asynchronous createServer() method to enable servers that import to run offline when they’re running on localhost) and exports IPAddresses class so servers can carry out their own automatic IP address detection (IPv4 and IPv6) if they want full control over exactly which domains and IP addresses are included in provisioned TLS certificates.¹

“you can just supply an IP address of a MongoDB instance and it’ll start ferreting out in memory things such as database passwords (which are plain text), AWS secret keys etc. The exploit specifically looks for those class of credentials and secrets, too.”

Do I know any C programmers?
I’m fiddling with a 20yo *trivial* C program and my editor(!) is warning me about the twisted casts in the first line of this:
if ((int)(addr = (void *)inet_addr(argv[1])) == -1) {
errnum=errno;
strerror(errnum);
perror("ERRNO");
(void) printf("IP address must be of the form a.b.c.d\n");
exit (2);
}
I can no longer understand what I was thinking. Can anyo…

NetworkManager is a fucking nightmare
I love having something that silently reverts changes I made with 'ip'
I love waiting a full minute for it to give any indication that I've plugged a wired Ethernet cable in
Ok so I set eth0 to "unmanaged" with a little config snippet - fixed, right? Nope, now eth0 is a brick. Even if I bring the interface UP, `dhclient` just hangs and never gets an address because nm is (apparently(?)) STILL fucking with it. Confi…

Hey, guess what?
I just saw the first Small Web site (the Kitten Chat example¹ from Kitten²) running at a Web Number³:
https://91.98.66.193/
👉 Update: I’m shutting it down in a few moments so it might not be there when you try it :)
Come say hi (I don’t know how long I’ll keep it on for, will update this when I turn it off.)
🥳
PS. This is only in the ip-address-support branch of Kitten right now and should be considered experimental. Will likely make it in…

I reinstalled MX Linux on my father's mini PC because because it wouldn't connect to the Internet or the local network. After half an hour of scratching my head, I still didn't know why.
After reinstalling and configuring everything (network printer, email, accounts for various websites, etc.), I realized that the IP address I had assigned to it was already taken.
It doesn't matter how much you know about system or network administration if you're a complete m…

Yay, first shot of Auto Encrypt¹ running a HTTPS web server at a Web Number (IP address).
https://ar.al/2025/06/25/web-numbers/
Next step: find out why some of the tests are failing on the Linux box, fix, and implement Web Numbers support in Kitten² and Catalyst³.
