Whoohoo! πŸ’ͺ Last night I added support for SSH Agent Forwarding to sshbox that now enables me to use it as an SSH Reverse Proxy to a private SSH service. I can now use this to front my Gitea's SSH service πŸ‘Œ (_without exposing my infra behind the proxy or the IP addresses_).

For my reference, but anyone else too... Creating a new Wireguard public/private key pair and bringing up a new client:


wg genkey | tee /etc/wireguard/private.key
cat /etc/wireguard/private.key | wg pubkey | tee /etc/wireguard/public.key
# Optional
vim /etc/wireguard/wg0.conf
wg-quick up wg0

So... Been a while since I've done this... But on macOS the best way to rip DVD(s) now is to 1) Use MakeMKV to backup the DVD disk and decrypt it 2) Use Handbrake to re-encode the backed up DVD disk into something more reasonable 3) Put it on a NAS or Media Server.

@emmanuel Btw I already figured out why accessing your web server is slow:


$ host wald.ovh
wald.ovh has address 86.243.228.45
wald.ovh has address 90.19.202.229


wald.ovh has 2 IPv4 addresses, one of which is dead and doesn't respond.. That's why accessing your website is so slow as depending on client and browser behaviors one of two things may happen 1) a random IP is chosen and 1/2 the time the wrong one is picked or 2) both are tried in some random order and 1/2 the time its slow because the broken one is picked.

If you don't know what 86.243.228.45 is, or it's a dead backup server or something, I'd suggest you remove this from the domain record.

@bender @mckinley To be honest I didn't even know you could run a Minecraft server. At least my understanding was that since Microsoft bought it, you can no longer play it without a Microsoft Live account, even with running your own server? πŸ€”
