Hiperkitty under moderation
by Carlos E. R. 27 Sep '23

27 Sep '23

Hi, On the Spanish mail list, I added a header check. All mail which have user-agent=HyperKitty on https://lists.opensuse.org/ are now moderated. Reason is that the list has got recently (September) a dozen or more English language spam, all coming via that interface, from "non members" apparently. Somehow spammers found a hole and they are exploiting it. Interesting thing is, the first hit provoked a reply from the spammer, sent to users-es-owner(a)lists.opensuse.org. It is possible that they interpret the rejection post as a "reply to our spam" that triggers a "reply to customer" automatically. If that is so, I may eventually have to silently reject or delete all email from hiperkitty. It would then be preferable to simply close the page, in order to not confuse possible good faith posters. Curio: https://lists.opensuse.org/manage/lists/users-es.lists.opensuse.org/members… has 9491 entries including this last attempt. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from openSUSE 15.5 (Laicolasse))

Question regarding Heinlein sponsoring
by Lars Vogdt 14 Sep '23

14 Sep '23

Hi there! Heinlein[1] is listed as Sponsor for openSUSE since a long time now. And from my old memory, Per offered in the past to provide Email accounts for openSUSE members for us (via mailbox.org). As there is an ongoing move of the openSUSE infrastructure planned during the next weeks, I'm thinking to myself: what about using the momentum and re-thinking the current setup??? 1) keep the own mx*.opensuse.org servers as they are They are already somehow redundant (with mx1 & mx2 in the SUSE DC in Nuremberg, mx3 in a Colocation and mx4 in the SUSE DC in Provo - but I don't know the status of the last two) and do their work well from my point of view. 2) allow openSUSE members to request an own, real @opensuse.org mailbox With this "opt-in", everyone who wants to read (and write!) Emails as $member(a)opensuse.org would be able to do so. -> No more problems with some providers who do not accept Emails sent as $member(a)opensuse.org ... 3) Maybe extend the sponsorship for a while? While meet.opensuse.org runs fine and without problems (thanks!) at the moment, Heinlein started just recently with an additional service: OpenTalk[2]. As Jitsi might be not available during the migration into the new SUSE DC, what about asking if openSUSE can (temporary) use (test) the new Videoconferencing solution? With kind regards, Lars -- [1]: https://en.opensuse.org/Sponsors#Heinlein_Support [2]: https://opentalk.eu/en/product

The CDN is only partially used atm - either via opt-in or automatic for some regions. We need to improve the config some more before it can become the default for everyone. 2. The CDN contract comes with limited bandwidth, so the current plan is to serve only small files (<100kB) directly via CDN (because there latency matters most) and for larger files cache the redirect or metalink pointing to mirrors. Plus we serve files through CDN that are not yet found on any mirrors. In one random sample, we found that download.o.o redirected 1.5 TB/h worth of traffic to our 100+ mirrors - it would be expensive (around 6kUSD/mon) to replace all of that. And abandoning our mirrors would mean, we have no good fallback in case of CDN outages. 3. The CDN is a caching proxy. It is good because we only need to transfer files that are really requested. It is bad because it adds latency when caches are cold or expired. Using a mirror directly is still the fastest for many users. Ciao Bernhard M.

I get the wiki notifications: [opensuse-admin-wiki] 'Machines' wiki page has been updated but I am apparently no longer authorized to see the wiki?? I guess it is related to my change of userid / email. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (16.3°C) Member, openSUSE Heroes

HELO hostname of mailing list server unresolvable
by Dominik George 22 Aug '23

22 Aug '23

Hi, I have stopped receiving mails from openSUSE mailing lists some time late on Monday. The issue is that the HELO hostname sent by the machine does not resolve anymore: 2023-08-22T11:15:53.721108+02:00 nuss postfix/smtpd[4123954]: NOQUEUE: reject: RCPT from proxy-nue1.opensuse.org[2001:67c:2178:8::145]: 450 4.7.1 <anna.infra.opensuse.org>: Helo command rejected: Host not found; from=<factory-bounces(a)lists.opensuse.org> to=<nik(a)naturalnet.de> proto=ESMTP helo=<anna.infra.opensuse.org> DNS has this to say: ;; OPT PSEUDOSECTION: ; EDNS: version: 0, flags:; udp: 512 ; EDE: 22 (No Reachable Authority): (At delegation infra.opensuse.org for anna.infra.opensuse.org/a) ;; QUESTION SECTION: ;anna.infra.opensuse.org. IN A My guess is that something was migrated somewhere or renamed, and someone forgot to adjust the HELO hostname ;). Cheers, Nik
