Denise Fishburne has a 7-part series on IPv6. Nice to see that work on getting Linux up and running and fully functional on Apple’s proprietary M1 chips is progressing well. There’s some networking stuff, a few security links, and even a hardware-related article. Networking. Operating Systems/Applications.

Simon Leinen (from SWITCHengines) explains their use of IPv6 with OpenStack. There was a fair amount of wailing and gnashing of teeth when Apple updated the MacBook Pro line with the Touch Bar. Flatpak is a (relatively) new application packaging/sandboxing mechanism for Linux applications. Servers/Hardware.

Wireguard, if you’re not familiar, is a relatively new solution that is baked into recent Linux kernels. Since the configuration of the clients and the servers is largely the same (especially since both client and server are Linux), I haven’t separated out the two configurations. There is also support for other OSes.)

Want to run Docker Swarm with IPv6? This Yelp Engineering blog post talks about one of these unintended side effects (processes running as PID 1 are treated differently by the Linux kernel). I haven’t messed with Puppet for a while, but here’s a good post by Gareth Rushgrove on using Puppet with CoreOS. Ubuntu 16.04 Just sayin’.

Tor Anderson has an article on using IPv6 for network boot using UEFI and iPXE. This article provides a good introductory overview of Linux iptables commands for configuring host-based firewall rules on your Linux systems. on an Apple Xserve 3,1. Welcome to Technology Short Take #57. I hope you find something useful here!
