This looks like a very big OUCH for latest generation of Intel based
laptops!
-- desktops might be okay though.

Is there interest in a kvm tutorial at the beginners sig? The idea would be to have most people running it on their laptops but it's theoretically possible to run kvm within qemu so we might be able to get it running in VMs.

The Internet is entirely dependent on the technical ability of strangers.
Usually the random unpaid strangers are more skillfull and diligent than the
people employed by ISPs.
With this sort of thing there are risks of hostile parties running tunnels,
but all unencrypted data on the Internet is at risk of interception so I don't
think that changes much.
Thanks to 6to4 when I get my home Internode connection working with IPv6 I
will have every system that matters to me on IPv6. It will be some time
before everything works well on IPv6, now would be a good time to get it all
tested.

Sixxs are not processing new users or tunnel requests. They are in the
early phases of a phase out. Their rationale is that it's time ISPs
pulled their finger out and provided IPv6 for their customers, rather
than leaving it up to the major tunnel providers to take up the slack.
There has been quite a bit of discussion on the Fidonet IPv6 echo (Yes,
Fidonet is still around, and yes, I have access!).

I'm trying to setup reverse DNS for a 6to4 address using the above web site.
IPv4: 220.245.31.42
IPv4 (hex): dc.f5.1f.2a
IPv6: 2002:dcf5:1f2a::/48
Reverse: a.2.f.1.5.f.c.d.2.0.0.2.ip6.arpa
Above is the web site's details about my system. Before anyone mentions it I
know it's common practice to obscure details of addresses before posting to
lists, but I'm not publishing anything that couldn't be discovered by reading
headers of mail sent out from my system.
Name server 1: ns.sws.net.au.______
Error Either you have entered an invalid nameserver
description or the
nameserver you refer to has no zone for this reverse
delegation.
When I try to submit the form I get the above errors from all of my DNS
servers.
zone "a.2.f.1.5.f.c.d.2.0.0.2.ip6.arpa" {
type master;
file "/etc/bind/data/a.2.f.1.5.f.c.d.2.0.0.2.ip6.arpa";
allow-transfer { REDACTED };
};
Above is the named.conf.local configuration for BIND.

Above is the complete zone file for a.2.f.1.5.f.c.d.2.0.0.2.ip6.arpa.
Can anyone see anything I've done wrong?

PyCon Australia attracts professional developers from all walks of life,
including industry, government, and science, as well as enthusiast and
student developers. We’re looking for proposals for presentations and
tutorials on any aspect of Python programming, at all skill levels from
novice to advanced.
Presentation subjects may range from reports on open source, academic or
commercial projects; or even tutorials and case studies. If a presentation
is interesting and useful to the Python community, it will be considered
for inclusion in the program. We're especially interested in short
presentations that will teach conference-goers something new and useful.
Can you show attendees how to use a module? Explore a Python language
feature? Package an application?
For more information, please visit https://2016.pycon-au.org/cfp.
Thanks very much to all prospective speakers from the program committee --
we really appreciate it!

G'day all
I have found a couple of projects that assist run osx utilities in linux, however they seem to have died.
All I need is to convert a .iso to .dmg, so that when the result is dd 'd to usb it wil boot my MacBook. The result is an efiboot partition is written to the USB as well as the .iso installation file.
I can't boot into osx using a usb but it takes forever, and ages to run the conversion. Slow enough to seek a better way
Tanks in advance
