Pretty slick if it actually works!

Topic: MythTV channel listing updating...

I havent changed yet as zap2it still works for me, at least in my messed up mythbox state (still rebuilding) I suppose Im going to go with the SD.org method, they claim the price will drop once more people start using it.

Topic: MythTV channel listing updating...

I got in on the beta of schedules direct. http://www.schedulesdirect.org/ $15/3 months. It’s alot more expensive than free was from zap2it, but it’s not a horrible price. So far I’ve been able to download the data with xmltv by modifying the urls in tv_grab_na_dd and then importing that data into mythfilldatabase…

It’s not elegant but apparantly there IS an integrated solution already in SVN for mythtv. I just have not gotten there yet. I’m planning on building a new box with the latest version once everything is out, since my box is still on a quite old version and running only mildly happy on a P3 667mhz machine… But it works – so I aint gonna “fix it” until I get a new working system in place.. once I do the old machine will get the same upgrade and go upstairs so I can have mythtv in the bedroom too.

Topic: anyone using OpenBSD+PF and maybe CARP for corporate firewall use.

Guys, I setup the OpenBSD+PF+Carp+pfsync firewall cluster at ISG. I’m very happy with the results. The configuration is basic and not too exotic. We’ve got a handful of subnets behind the cluster hosting a variety of public services (dns, web, smtp, pop, imap, instant messaging, VOIP and others.)

My favorite feature of the cluster has always been the CARP automatic fail-over. We can service one node (firmware/OS upgrades) without affecting service.

The SCOSUG.org site is on our network behind this firewall.

It was simple to setup and just works.

Topic: anyone using OpenBSD+PF and maybe CARP for corporate firewall use.

There was a commercial company selling OpenBSD PF configs and they might have some case studies on their site. (Not that I remember who it was) Ive used it in the past in front of things and it worked very well on sites up to a few thousand hits a day (under 10) and email traffic of about the same. Sorry I cant offer more info then that.

Topic: anyone using OpenBSD+PF and maybe CARP for corporate firewall use.

We’re pretty happy with that kind of setup at ISG. We don’t have nearly that many users behind our firewall, but have a fair number of websites, email, hosted application servers, etc. living back there, and have had no problems that I’m aware of.

Thanks for posting that up john, appreciate it.

Like what John posted, I am looking for a case study or even just a “I setup OpenBSD w/ PF as a firewall in environment X, Y, Z with N number of users for Company Blah.com”.

This information would be for internal use only.

Thanks in advance!
