Today, the Linuxulator did its job, and it did it very well.
A client is experimenting with moving from Docker to FreeBSD and jails, and they seem very happy with it so far.
The issue is that part of their build process - as so often happens - relies on Node dependencies that only compile on Linux, macOS, etc., but not on FreeBSD, due to a missing binary that isn't provided for it. Currently, they build on their local machines and push the output to the server, but sometimes they need to make quick changes on the fly.So, I set up a Linux jail (Ubuntu) using BastilleBSD, installed the dependencies, set up a bind mount, and granted them access to the jail. The result: now they can compile right from there too, improving their overall workflow.
The Linuxulator - and even more so, illumos's lx zones - are truly remarkable pieces of technology.

Another day exploring ppt and pcie passthrough on #illumos #omnios
After a year of shaking my fist at it i can finally say i managed.
I did it with a usb card.But here is something i didn't understand
I have an Atlantic NIC on my motherboard. No drivers available for OmniOS. perfect to pass it through to something.
But i can't find it in /devices Ghost nic?
I remember the device tree from exploring various openboot systemsWell it took me 13months to get here
Thanks for your shoulder. -

TFW when you need to quadruple the storage on your machines because your open-source project is finally successful.
On that note, https://lab.atomdrift.org/ will be down for the next couple of hours so I can upgrade our #OmniOS #PostGreSQL master & #FreeBSD frontend replica to 4TB of NVME so that the drive doesn't fill while I go on vacation.

Is there a good man page for this?
I found another ipf.conf buried in the nwam folder
i suspect that ipnat.conf goes there too -
After being locked away for 10+ years in the Cloud; it's so refreshing, and frustrating to deal with all of the little things; like filesystems, database replication and locks, replacing fans and NICs, debugging OOMs, and crashing daemons on #FreeBSD, #OmniOS, and #Linux;
I feel like everything moves a little more slowly and sustainably this way; but most of all - I really missed getting lost in the details.

nwadm on wan interface only?
or should I disable nwamd all together and use ipadm dhcp?
I am still on my router firewall project 🤭🤭
Reason i ask is because i don't have a friggin clue since i went in head first trying to build a fw / router with Tribblix
And got wierd results when my rj45 was connected to incoming internet -

@jselea Thanks goes out to Jonathan for this (still quite relevant) tidbit. For those of us who spent a lot of time with Sun #Solaris up through Solaris 10 there's a lot to appreciate here.
Solaris has been parted out, but here is an Enterprise production scale incarnation that's worth a looksee and testdrive. It's really a shame that the Evil EllisonCo destroyed so much - just discarded it like trash, following aquisitions, and what they didn't toss out in the trash they dissappointed the developers so much that it spawned forks that exist to fill the vacuum to this day:
- MySQL ==> MariaDB
- OOo ==> LibreOffice (The Document Foundation)
- Sun Enterprise Servers - rebranded as Oracle boxes
- Sun Solaris 10 ==> OpenIndiana and others (OmniOS, for one)
- Sun VirtualBox - Oracle VirtualBoxSo without dwelling on the past or further ado, let's follow Jonathan's tour, shall we?

In the spirit of there always being 1 more #vi clone than one thinks, notice that @lpar 's list is lacking Ali Gholami Rudi's #neatvi which is packaged in #pkgsrc and about a decade old now.
https://pkgsrc.se/editors/neatvi
And even then the rule still applies. There's 1 more clone: Sterling Huxley's and Brent Roman's #viless, a quarter of a century old and what #BusyBox supplies.

Well thats a bummer, can't even boot #SmartOS on my dell T630, kernel throws some complaints about xhci (guessing it doesn't like something about the USB controllers or USB 3?) , crashes and reboots. Hrmm.. Nothing in the forums, just some vague references and ancient bug reports that didn't seem resolved.
