RedwoodSec<p>I’ve never looked at systemd doc before, but honestly, this is pretty fabulous as far as documentation goes. Generally, technical documentation has improved by leaps and bounds since the 80s. I’m excited GNOME is going to depend on systemd’s userdb.

Farooq | فاروق<p>Hmm am I the only one who think this doesn't make much sense?</p><p>On one side, I have to make changes to network configuration using the <code>ip</code> utility. But then to make them persistent, I have to play with <code>systemd-networkd</code> stuff. The problem's that I have to learn two things. Why not have a system with which you could configure your network through the same CLI tool using the same syntax?</p><p>Not that I want to join the anti systemd train. I haven't tweaked my PC at this level before. But recently I'm doing so and I wished I didn't have to spend few hours to get the thing working. Maybe it could be good if there was a system with which you could configure networking stuff on boot using the same <code>ip</code> utility?</p><p>Or maybe I'm doing it the wrong way and there is a way to make changes done with <code>ip</code> persistent?</p><p>Any enlightening comment is welcome!</p><p><a href="https://cr8r.gg/tags/systemd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>systemd</span></a> <a href="https://cr8r.gg/tags/Linux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Linux</span></a> <a href="https://cr8r.gg/tags/FOSS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>FOSS</span></a> <a href="https://cr8r.gg/tags/LinuxNetworking" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>LinuxNetworking</span></a> <a href="https://cr8r.gg/tags/Networking" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Networking</span></a> <a href="https://cr8r.gg/tags/CLI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>CLI</span></a> <a href="https://cr8r.gg/tags/sysadmin" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>sysadmin</span></a> <a href="https://cr8r.gg/tags/systemadministration" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>systemadministration</span></a></p>

Memo<p>Meine Diaspora-Migration von Debian 11 auf Debian 12 verlief eigentlich reibungslos. Nach einem Datenbank-Update konnte ich das Skript problemlos starten.</p><p>Was nicht mehr funktioniert, ist das systemd-Startskript, wenn der Parameter "-lc" in der Zeile enthalten ist:</p><p>ExecStart=/bin/bash -lc "script/server"</p><p>Ohne diesen Parameter funktioniert es einwandfrei. Zumindest dachte ich das die letzten vier Tage nach dem Update.</p><p>Heute Morgen stellte ich jedoch fest, dass Diaspora (seit meinem Beitrag gestern Abend) „hing“. Es wurden keine neuen Beiträge abgerufen und der letzte Beitrag nicht gesendet.</p><p>Nach einem manuellen Neustart scheint Diaspora wieder reibungslos zu laufen.</p><p>Jetzt frage ich mich jedoch, ob dieser „Hänger“ mit dem oben genannten Parameter zusammenhängt, was er eigentlich bedeutet und ob es einen „Ersatzparameter“ für Debian 12 gibt.</p><p><a href="https://mstdn.mv2k.com/tags/Diaspora" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Diaspora</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.mv2k.com/tags/Admin" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Admin</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.mv2k.com/tags/Debian" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Debian</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.mv2k.com/tags/Systemd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Systemd</span></a></p>
