Just got back from two weeks on the east coast, celebrating Christmas and New Year with Sarah and her folks. What bliss.
Our two nights out at Fire & Ice were fun, as were the positively stupendous desserts at Finale in Boston.
Anyway, I’ve just put up a new release of bash completion with which to kick off the new year.
I’m back at work tomorrow. Ugh. I very quickly get used to not working, so I can’t say I’m looking forward to getting back into the doldrums.
Anyone played with grsecurity, an excellent security patch for the Linux kernel? This thing is great and nails a system down very tightly indeed. The sysctl interface is particularly good, allowing you to fine-tune parameters to get the precise balance between security and usability that you want. Then you can lock down all the configured parameters by setting one final sysctl. Once that’s set, grsecurity parameters can no longer be redefined.
