Local Networks Go Global When Domain Names Collide – Krebs on Security
krebsonsecurity.com

The proliferation of new top-level domains (TLDs) has exacerbated a well-known security weakness: Many organizations set up their internal Microsoft authentication systems years ago using domain names in TLDs that didn’t exist at the time. Meaning, they are continuously sending their Windows usernames and passwords to domain names they do not control and which are freely available for anyone to register. Here’s a look at one security researcher’s efforts to map and shrink the size of this insidious problem.

    I dropped truenas, ran fedora server + zfs dkms module. It’s been perfectly fine for a couple of years (even accounting for that nasty silent data corruption bug…)

    And domain permissions work properly now. People have been asking Ix for proper support for IPA for over a decade, they aren’t interested in solving it.

      Which is why I’m no longer interested in supporting them lol.

      You don’t get to run a commercial entity under the guise of open source software, and giving back to the community, while prioritizing inter-compatibility with the king of EEE over the most popular FLOSS alternative.

      Rocky has been good to me, but I still miss centos.

      Honestly the only thing I’ve had trouble getting working with freeIPA with no alternative is some sort of centralized ROM management. Then again they all kinda lack any sync features with retroarch which is what would really bring me to them anywho.
