00:11 <DC-IRC> <.gentooman> Wtf bro, as soon as i open port 22 a chinese ip is trying to connect to my board via ssh

00:13 <archetech> ha been like that for long time

00:25 <DC-IRC> <.gentooman> Fucker did 20 attempts with no success since i have a whitelist and password auth is off

00:35 <DC-IRC> <.gentooman> Chi xin ping rly wants my data

00:47 <nekomancer[m]> <DC-IRC> "<.gentooman> Chi xin ping rly..." <- he wants new members into botnets.

00:55 <DC-IRC> <.gentooman> Might join his army if he asked nicely

00:57 <DC-IRC> <amhieu> hi, i new to this hobby. just want to ask what make armbian more popular on orange pi than ubuntu ?

00:57 <DC-IRC> <amhieu> sry for stupid question

00:59 <nekomancer[m]> did ubuntu really work there?

01:02 <DC-IRC> <amhieu> on the site does have option to download yes ?

01:02 <DC-IRC> <amhieu> https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/857944478269702214/1123418194690965567/Screenshot_2023-06-28_at_1.02.38_AM.png

01:17 <DC-IRC> <tenkawa42> Actually its mostly in reality personal choice and sometimes some distros "do" work better than others however I always prefer to start with going with personal choice and try to figure out how to make things work... (I have been doing this a long time though)

01:22 <DC-IRC> <nicod_sbc> Armbian has regular updates. Has both Ubuntu and Debian versions. Not just one version. Armbian has a crew of people who care. Orange Pi provided images used to be the worst around. And that brought many to Armbian.

01:22 <DC-IRC> <nicod_sbc> Orange Pi even cloned the Armbian project to adapt to their needs, but to my knowledge that died because of lack of knowledge.

02:23 <DC-IRC> <dongie1818> what is the purpose for hiding kernel boot messages by default? Now I'm staring at a board that does nothing and I can't debug it because someone decided kernel messages are haram

03:00 <DC-IRC> <dongie1818> welp, I just switched to ubunto focal instead, that doens't hide boot messages and works.

03:26 <DC-IRC> <nicod_sbc> You are free to go your own way! Use uart if you want full readable boot and kernel messages.

03:32 <DC-IRC> <Werner> Most people don't car about these messages. Almost all distributions do that. Simple enough to bring them back. In case of armbian increase verbosity to 7 in armbianEnv.txt

06:37 <aasami_> What about Assange?

13:54 <DC-IRC> <barrowofdirt> Been running the Ubuntu Jammy on my Orange Pi 5+ for a while, but I get a single kernel thread every time I boot using 3% of one core all the time no matter what, to the point where the login screen always says the load is 12 or 13% at the very lowest. Any ideas on this?

14:04 <DC-IRC> <tenkawa42> Do you use usb media?

14:36 <DC-IRC> <okehgamingtvfan> Yes

14:49 <DC-IRC> <tenkawa42> There's a parameter you might need to pass to the boot line to turn polling off... let me find it... high load occurs otherwise sometimes otherwise

14:49 <DC-IRC> <tenkawa42> Just a sec

14:54 <DC-IRC> <tenkawa42> trying to find the non-rpi generic string to test

14:55 <DC-IRC> <tenkawa42> I know it can be easily tested on the Broadcom SBCs.. not on the OrangePI 5+ the same way though

14:56 <DC-IRC> <speakertomeat> Welcome to the future

14:59 <DC-IRC> <speakertomeat> @.gentooman Either go with key based auth only, or at least install fail2ban

14:59 <DC-IRC> <tenkawa42> As far as I know... people were thrashing connection random attempts to ssh since the internet existed... I use to have logs set up in the 90's and out monitor systems would send out some crazy numbers of attempts

14:59 <DC-IRC> <tenkawa42> As far as I know... people were thrashing connection random attempts to ssh since the internet existed... I use to have logs set up in the 90's and our monitor systems would send out some crazy numbers of attempts

15:00 <DC-IRC> <tenkawa42> And moving ssh to non-port 22 is useless because its almost instantaneous to find the actual protocol connection itself..

15:01 <DC-IRC> <tenkawa42> So yeah use keys or start blocking sources at the routers/firewalls

15:01 <DC-IRC> <tenkawa42> And be prepared to block a lot

15:01 <DC-IRC> <tenkawa42> @.gentooman

15:03 <DC-IRC> <.gentooman> Well i alrdy use key based auth

15:03 <DC-IRC> <tenkawa42> @speakertomeat Notice how it seems there's not been any real "advancements" in this area in recent days

15:03 <DC-IRC> <.gentooman> Tomorrow ill figure outvthe firewall thingy

15:03 <DC-IRC> <.gentooman> Tomorrow ill figure out the firewall thingy

15:11 <DC-IRC> <speakertomeat> yeah but we mean key based auth exclusively

15:11 <DC-IRC> <.gentooman> And i mean it 2

15:12 <DC-IRC> <.gentooman> Password auth disabled
