MC's journal

I'm glad to announce that I will be speaking about how to make IPsec scale at this year's FSCONS on 9, 10 & 11 November, in Göteborg, Sweden.

New patch released.

Edit to correct language.

Repost because of broken images.

For a few years I have been increasingly annoyed that web filtering companies have categorised the hack.org web server (and, presumably, the *.hack.org subdomains) under a category they call "hacking" that Websense defines as: Sites that provide informati…

Last week my eldest son, Ludvig, graduated from upper secondary school.

Yesterday I wrote that .SE will finance my BTNS project. .SE has now published a press release (in Swedish) but it originally had an unfortunate error: The project title and the description describes parts (specifically Scenario 2) of another project, Usi…

I'm pleased to announce that the .SE Foundation has again deemed me worthy to receive funding for my research.

As you probably know I'm not usually running Linux but I confess that there are a number of GNU/Linux systems in my home.

I held a presentation about the mcwm window manager at the the FSCONS 2011 conference in November, 2011.

A while ago I bought a new computer.

In 1991 I discovered a wonderful program called screen.

Updated.

Updated*2.

About a week ago, while on the train to Linköping to celebrate the ex wife's birthday, I finished a small program, hidden.

I have written a small forwarding DNS resolver in Perl that I use in the opportunistic IPsec project.

Here be a new set of patches to racoonctl and racoon: ipseckey-20120220.patch.bz2 racoonctl can now load a binary RSA public key from a file into a running racoon.

Today I got the administrative tool racoonctl to talk to racoon and load an RSA key.

After including Christian's patch to allow other clients to unmap windows in mcwm I also added a key to hide windows.

Finally got around to include Christian Neukirchen's patch to mcwm which will allow windows to be unmapped by client request, that is, to be be iconified or hidden.

Back in October, 2010, I wrote a blog entry in Swedish about running Firefox as another user as a sort of sandbox light.

I finally found the time to work on the racoon IKE server again for the opportunistic IPsec project.

I have written a beginning HOWTO type document on how to use IPSECKEY DNS records with my very early racoon patches.

I have cleaned up my racoon patches for the opportunistic encryption project at least a little bit.

In my opportunistic encryption project I envisioned two possible scenarios.

Here's a short status update about my racoon hacking (project pages).

At least some progress to report in my IPsec project.

As you all know it is now YOLD 3178 according to the Discordian calendar.

Note that David's patches also introduces new functionality and overrides certain key bindings besides unbreaking the build.

Those of you living on the bleeding edge (hello Arch Linux users!)

I recently posted a first blog entry about my Opportunistic Encryption project.

I have spent the last two weeks looking into the problem of doing opportunistic encryption on the IP layer using IPsec Transport Mode and public keys in DNS.

Finally committed my changes for privelege seperation to the radns project.

As you may know if you subscribe to the mcwm-announce mailing list I released a new version of the mcwm window manager in late november.

I recently attended the FSCONS conference in Gothenburg.

Your humble correspondent recently had the pleasure to be invited to this nice country cottage: Figure 1: A cottage on a lonely road.

Seth Mos told me that the pfSense firewall/router project is looking to incorporate my radns program.

radns is now in the FreeBSD ports system as dns/radns.

We have a machine in co-location at XS4All in Amsterdam, The Netherlands.

The other day I was standing ~10 cm from some Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Ultra Thins.

The Post-It craze reaches the neighbours.

As you may or may not know, I have received some funding for the radns project, my IPv6 Router Advertisment client from .SE, the foundation behind the Swedish ccTLD.

No, it's not a movie or a comic book.

I've been asked several times if I would consider writing my blog in English.

Jag fick ganska nyligen en Genesi Smartbook av min vän Linus.

Det finns en ny release av mcwm.

Lite för tidigt har jag fått årets födelsedagspresent från mig själv.

Min barndomsvän Magnus var nyligen på besök hos oss.
