moparisthebest: OK, I'll bite: what is the value of "set up right" that keeps fail2ban from locking me out of my own server when something else at the same cafe / hotel / whatever happens to have been hitting it?
-
kousu
I think mopar meant: disable ssh password login and only use keys. Then bots can't break in.
-
kousu
fail2ban is helpful though. It reduces attack surface by a huge factor, and improves the signal to noise ratio of your logs so you can find the targetted attackers. I tune it to unban after 10 minutes and even that drastically cut down how many failed logins I have to sort through.
-
moparisthebest
rozzin, kousu: yep I meant "public key auth and good passwords mean you don't need fail2ban"
-
moparisthebest
I guess if I wanted it I'd whitelist the wireguard port since it doesn't even respond to invalid packets, then you could always get in...
-
rozzin
Oh. Yeah, OK ☺
-
rozzin
moparisthebest: I think I had mis-parsed your "you know what fail2ban *doesn't* fail to ban" pun.

rozzin
Possibly because I _just_ watched `Spaceballs' with my kids and am all punned-out. 😆️
-
moparisthebest
I blame the pun generator

moparisthebest
Ha haven't watched that in ages

Is there a plaintext XMPP roster format I can create and merge with my existing roster? 🤔️

ernst.on.tour
Amolith: on prosody ?

Amolith
ernst.on.tour, I'm just thinking something like a VCF file. I recently started using an SMS <-> XMPP gateway and want to move my contacts over to XMPP

So, you have two accounts and want to merge their rosters? I don't know of any automatism for this. Afaik MattJ is working on moving one account from one server to another but I'm not sure whether this also includes merging two existing accounts. I've heard you could drag'n'drop roster contacts from one roster to the other in older versions. No idea whether this still works.✎ -
MattJ
It's technically not in scope, but probably something I could add

Martin, no I mean going from a list of standard phone contacts with name/phone number to name/JID. For example, +18888888888 in my VCF becomes +18888888888@cheogram.com in a file formatted such it can be imported to my XMPP account

I don’t think there’s a standard for this, but it sounds like something either a specialized mobile client could implement, or a thing you could script one-off with a few lines of your favourite programming language and an XMPP client library.

When investigating in our Help Center I found this useful information: » » **_The app only works with select VoIP carriers, such as Google Voice. Other services may not be supported, so use your smartphone's phone number when creating an account._** » » You can use Lyft on Windows phones and Amazon Devices using our mobile site: m.lyft.com » » The Lyft app works with all major cell carriers (like Sprint, T-Mobile, Verizon, or AT&T) and most minor carriers (like Virgin Wireless, Metro PCS, or Cricket Wireless). » » You need to have at least Google Voice phone to be able to use Lyft App. This is for security reasons, whenever you request a ride you will receive a confirmation text on your phone, until you confirm the ride request in your phone, then we send your request to available drivers in your area. » » There's no other way to use the Lyft App to ride in our platform. » » I hope you find this info useful and clarifying.

and be able to discriminate based on who your telephone company is
-
tom
shouldn't all they be able to see is what your phone number is?
-
MattJ
Phone companies need to know where to route calls to, so that information exists
-
MattJ
and if that data exists, it's guaranteed to be used for other purposes :)
-
MattJ
But.... off-topic

xorman
they may be shielding on some VoIP providers not handling SMS correctly

If you're interested in that sort of stuff, I believe it's on-topic in xmpp:discuss@conference.soprani.ca?join

» Even though the small local ISP is actually just reselling megacorps product, at least around here they have their own asterisk PBX and a SS7 uplink

Afaik there is no ip transit available on the island, so all small players are resellers
