Thanks man, this is exactly what I was looking for. All the other sites I've come across are dross and don't offer the solution you did. Thanks for existing and rock on!

I learnd the same. FIDO(2) is a very good Idea, but the most of the Services do not have a function to accept more the ONE Key.

Love this script, thank you!

Instead of:

> :local hostaddr [/ip dhcp-server lease get value-name=address $lease]

.. I use:

> :local hostaddr [/ip dhcp-server lease get value-name=active-address $lease]

This way static leases in a waiting/not-active state don't get added to DNS.

I found this slight difference useful for hosts which can connect via two (or more) interfaces each of which has its own IP address, e.g. a notebook computer that is sometimes on the network wired and other times on the network wireless, but only one at a time, and for which only one hostname is desired in DNS (so that, whichever interface happens to be the one that is connected from time to time, just one hostname will always be the right name to use to find the host).

With the original code, which reads the address parameter, static waiting addresses do get added to DNS (and might get added before the other, actually active address, resulting in only the non-active address being put into DNS, I guess because it's found after the actually-active DHCP lease, and it overwrites the DNS entry that the actually active DHCP lease had just been read by the script and written into static DNS).

Thanks for this helpful text! It allowed me to get things working. One thing however I'd love to see is a bit of explanation on the RDP-Option with Gnome Connections you refer to, and which you seem to prefer. I can confirm that the "Spice-Client" is extremely instable, so I'd love to use that rdp-based alternative. I know from platforms with native Windows Remote Desktop clients, that you can chose relolutions from the server. However I have not found a way to achieve this with Gnome Connections. Remmina allows it to some degree, but I'd love to see it in the "native" Gnome Connections. Could you add a few sentences - if only a link. I've Googled, of course, however 'Windows - Fedora/Linux - Host - Guest' result in so many cases that I've not found a single page so far that would handle this particular constellation: Windows 11 guest on Fedora (41) host. Thank you for your consideration.

People have been complaining about this since the app's inception. I've personally complained several times but to no avail. I've never known a company treat it's clients with such distain. Most people just turn the alarms off, which effectively renders this potentially life-saving feature useless. There is no alternative recognised by the health insurance system here in Germany so I have no choice other than to use the Libre3 app.

The token system has been completely removed at some point before 7.14 and it's no longer possible to become an exit node at all. I'm not sure when (or more importantly why) exactly these changes were made as their changelogs are straight up garbage and I gave up digging through github commits and issues after an hour, but I feel like the current version could be worth re-examination. The pre-release version 8.1x even supports BitTorrent v2 which would solve another of Tribler's issues.

Also the 'c' attribute (compression) makes it fail.

In my situation, I was trying to move files between 2 shared folders on Synology DSM (on the same btrfs volume), except one of them was marked for compression. Rather than take compression off the whole shared folder, I targeted the parent folder with "chattr -c".

I wouldn't have though this would prevent the CoW, but it worked fine after that.

When contacting Abbott, tell them you will give their app the lowest rating, post this problem in all relevant forums and suggest people use the competitors instead.

Thanks for this post. I was running out of inodes by copying tons of jpegs from motion running on a RPi with camera to my main machine via an rsync cron job and kept getting the 'no space left on device' error. Never thought I'd had to reformat but that is what I'll need to do for this rather extreme disk use case

mailbox.org does not support MFA (multi-factor authentication) at all. Therefore it is NOT GDPR compliant because it does not offer reasonable security. It will also not be considered CRA compliant when Cyber Resilience Act comes into force. I don’t think it is compliant with BSI requirements, yet it offers [packages to the public sector](https://mailbox.org/en/education-and-public-authorities), but what about all the news about government entities being hacked for ransomware and data theft? Mailbox.org has a section about [your social and ecological responsibility](https://mailbox.org/en/company#our-responsibility) on your website, but what about your responsibility to your customer’s security?

In the [recent SANS Newsbites](https://view.email.sans.org/?qs=533959a804114f542720fb441a50fc1b5ae0ca7f2b35400a108504c695c220871225af4d289c01cc8a57847d83e147e607330d3d38e6996526b297a451804fdd7da41d2aeef5c25175554b7128f6b1e5), the attack against Spanish Telephonica is discussed and a quote about MFA:

> In today’s threat environment, implementing Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) is now table stakes for all systems, but in particular sensitive systems, whether they are internal or external-facing. MFA should now be viewed in the same regard as seat belts in a car, and those that don’t use MFA viewed in the same way as those who don’t wear seat belts.
