Sometimes a slow network can make the struggle to install lots of module dependencies too much to bear.

I finally left behind the 32-bit address space with a new Asus motherboard and 8GB of RAM.
For a recent project, I needed to find reliable server hosting with good connectivity inside India. After doing some research, I decided to use E2E Networks, which offers reasonably-configured virtual servers at good prices, and has well-connected hosting facilities in Delhi and Mumbai.
Here's how I set up a web application behind a reverse proxy to serve unauthenticated pages over HTTP, and everything else over HTTPS-only.
Using resolvconf is supposed to make it easier to coordinate updates to /etc/resolv.conf, but I've never really learned to get along with it. At best, we have an uneasy truce.
I just moved the OBI web site to my new hosted server at Hetzner and—because I couldn't retain my old /29 netblock—to a new IP address as well. Here are a few notes about the migration, including the stupid (but harmless) mistake I made.
Doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results is exactly how I finally managed to reset the contradictory network configuration on this printer.
A small patch to add IPv6 support to authbind.
I ran "service ssh restart", and got the following error message:
restart: Rejected send message, 1 matched rules; type="method_call", sender=":1.75" (uid=1000 pid=3409 comm="restart) interface="com.ubuntu.Upstart0_6.Job" member="Restart" error name="(unset)" requested_reply=0 destination="com.ubuntu.Upstart" (uid=0 pid=1 comm="/sbin/init"))
It turns out this is how Upstart (Ubuntu's init(8) replacement) says "you're not root".
I migrated from one dedicated server at Hetzner to another, and everyone must know all of the fascinating details thereof!
