If you are running bleeding-edge DragonFly _and_ installed the newest dports binary package build _and_ you are using Samba, you may need to update and rebuild.
Linked here cause maybe it’ll help someone else with synproxy and pf in DragonFly: synproxy state doesn’t work in Packet Filter.
ifconfig(8) in DragonFly is gaining a description field, to ease porting of CBSD.

In Iran, of all places – Google decided this was spam so I am a few days late in posting it to the mirrors page.
These are extended so HAM-BUG may still be meeting when you read this.
ChiBUG is meeting tonight at 6PM at Giordano’s. Go if you are near Chicago.
I was interviewed by email a short while ago by Alexandre. He’s collecting them from other people, so start with me and keep reading with Vermaden.
The not-official-but-still-used mirror-eu-1.dragonflybsd.org mirror is going away later next month. The main site probably has enough bandwidth to compensate.

I installed new SSL certificates for this server over the weekend and I have to say, Let’s Encrypt and certbot are the easiest SSL setup process I’ve ever done. It worked exactly as expected on DragonFly.
SEMIBUG is meeting online tomorrow, the 21st. The Emacs presentation that was originally scheduled has been postponed to October 19; it’ll be lightning talks instead.
Update: postponed to next week.
The recent tmux package update reminds me to mention ‘pkg lock’. When you update packages, pkg will update everything. If there’s a package you don’t want changed, the pkg lock(8) command will keep it at the current version. There can be some other packages held back because of dependencies, but that’s OK. Don’t forget to pkg unlock when no longer needed…
NYCBUG’s hosting “Extreme scripting with KSH and AWK” with G Clifford Williams, tomorrow. It’s online, so everyone can get the lesson.
If you want to update to the now fixed tmux port, you’ll want to add a -f to the pkg command to force it; the version number hasn’t changed.
tuxillo has built a new set of packages for dports; upgrade using the instructions in his post. (Though ‘pkg upgrade’ has generally worked for me as the quickest solution.)
I didn’t realize this, but there was a bounty offer for porting a hypervisor to DragonFly, listed on the DragonFly Code Bounties page. Aaron LI did it, and now he’s promptly paid, too. Put your name on a bounty if you’re willing and interested in paying.
Aaron LI posted a summary of how he went from zero to done, so to speak, porting NVMM to DragonFly. There’s some interesting future projects there, too.
