firewall | Python Firewall Library | Firewall library

I am currently trying to connect to an AWS REST API which requires at least TLS v1.2. The documentation stats that clients must also support cipher suites with perfect forward secrecy (PFS) such as Ephemeral Diffie-Hellman (DHE) or Elliptic Curve Ephemeral Diffie-Hellman (ECDHE).

When sending a GET request using the HttpClient, the connection simply times out. I have set the TLS version explicitely to TLSv1.2 like this:

We are getting logs that calls to k8s are being made, despite our cluster being private, as well as being behind the gcp firewall with a rule that blocks all ingress except IAP IPs (and ICMP). What am I missing?

I have seen the question asked here from 2018. I'm wondering if there is a better answer today.

Our work computers are bedeviled by an entire IT security department that seems to exist to make them useless. We are allowed to run R 3.6.3 (4.x hasn't been approved yet). We cannot connect to CRAN from behind the corporate firewall. In the past that meant we took our laptops home to install packages. But now we have a download monitor that blocks CRAN downloads even when we're on our own wi-fi.

I was attempting to get around this by downloading the package .zip files on a personal machine, transferring them via CD, and then installing with repos=NULL. I used this code

I've been trying to get over this but I'm out of ideas for now hence I'm posting the question here.

I'm experimenting with the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) and I wanted to create a Kubernetes cluster which exposes some service.

The goal is:

• A running managed Kubernetes cluster (OKE)
• 2 nodes at least
• 1 service that's accessible for external parties

The infra looks the following:

• A VCN for the whole thing
• A private subnet on 10.0.1.0/24
• A public subnet on 10.0.0.0/24
• NAT gateway for the private subnet
• Internet gateway for the public subnet
• Service gateway
• The corresponding security lists for both subnets which I won't share right now unless somebody asks for it
• A containerengine K8S (OKE) cluster in the VCN with public Kubernetes API enabled
• A node pool for the K8S cluster with 2 availability domains and with 2 instances right now. The instances are ARM machines with 1 OCPU and 6GB RAM running Oracle-Linux-7.9-aarch64-2021.12.08-0 images.
• A namespace in the K8S cluster (call it staging for now)
• A deployment which refers to a custom NextJS application serving traffic on port 3000

And now it's the point where I want to expose the service running on port 3000.

I have 2 obvious choices:

• Create a LoadBalancer service in K8S which will spawn a classic Load Balancer in OCI, set up it's listener and set up the backendset referring to the 2 nodes in the cluster, plus it adjusts the subnet security lists to make sure traffic can flow
• Create a Network Load Balancer in OCI and create a NodePort on K8S and manually configure the NLB to the ~same settings as the classic Load Balancer

The first one works perfectly fine but I want to use this cluster with minimal costs so I decided to experiment with option 2, the NLB since it's way cheaper (zero cost).

Long story short, everything works and I can access the NextJS app on the IP of the NLB most of the time but sometimes I couldn't. I decided to look it up what's going on and turned out the NodePort that I exposed in the cluster isn't working how I'd imagine.

The service behind the NodePort is only accessible on the Node that's running the pod in K8S. Assume NodeA is running the service and NodeB is just there chilling. If I try to hit the service on NodeA, everything is fine. But when I try to do the same on NodeB, I don't get a response at all.

That's my problem and I couldn't figure out what could be the issue.

What I've tried so far:

• Switching from ARM machines to AMD ones - no change
• Created a bastion host in the public subnet to test which nodes are responding to requests. Turned out only the node responds that's running the pod.
• Created a regular LoadBalancer in K8S with the same config as the NodePort (in this case OCI will create a classic Load Balancer), that works perfectly
• Tried upgrading to Oracle 8.4 images for the K8S nodes, didn't fix it
• Ran the Node Doctor on the nodes, everything is fine
• Checked the logs of kube-proxy, kube-flannel, core-dns, no error
• Since the cluster consists of 2 nodes, I gave it a try and added one more node and the service was not accessible on the new node either
• Recreated the cluster from scratch

Edit: Some update. I've tried to use a DaemonSet instead of a regular Deployment for the pod to ensure that as a temporary solution, all nodes are running at least one instance of the pod and surprise. The node that was previously not responding to requests on that specific port, it still does not, even though a pod is running on it.

Edit2: Originally I was running the latest K8S version for the cluster (v1.21.5) and I tried downgrading to v1.20.11 and unfortunately the issue is still present.

Edit3: Checked if the NodePort is open on the node that's not responding and it is, at least kube-proxy is listening on it.

I want to know how can we mount an file as read-only in Linux CentOS 7 Server through Golang. I have tried syscall but that doesn't work, syscall mounts the file but as read-write i have tried to give ro argument in the data but still it's mounting as read-write. Here is my go code:

I used the vpc module to create my VPC via the following code:

I have just set up a kubernetes cluster on bare metal using kubeadm, Flannel and MetalLB. Next step for me is to install ArgoCD.

I installed the ArgoCD yaml from the "Getting Started" page and logged in.

When adding my Git repositories ArgoCD gives me very weird error messages: The error message seems to suggest that ArgoCD for some reason is resolving github.com to my public IP address (I am not exposing SSH, therefore connection refused).

I can not find any reason why it would do this. When using https:// instead of SSH I get the same result, but on port 443.

I have put a dummy pod in the same namespace as ArgoCD and made some DNS queries. These queries resolved correctly.

What makes ArgoCD think that github.com resolves to my public IP address?

EDIT:

I have also checked for network policies in the argocd namespace and found no policy that was restricting egress.

I have had this working on clusters in the same network previously and have not changed my router firewall since then.

I need to query some WMI values using PowerShell from Windows 10 devices. The script is executed in the context of a non-admin user by some software distribution tooling.

There is a local admin account, and for the current purpose (retrieving information before wiping the system) it wouldn't be a problem to put the password in the script. As automation is a hard requirement, there is no way to deal with UAC windows or the user to enter some credentials.

Is there any way to get

I'm trying to use IntelliJ IDEA to run a Tomcat server but failing to so, I keep getting the following error code:

Application Server was not connected before run configuration stop, reason: java.io.IOException: Failed to retrieve RMIServer stub: javax.naming.CommunicationException [Root exception is java.rmi.ConnectIOException: error during JRMP connection establishment; nested exception is: java.net.SocketException: Connection reset]

As seen in the following picture: https://i.stack.imgur.com/yqYav.png

Also, I manage to run a Tomcat server in CMD, but it just doesn't seem to work in IntelliJ. This is a pic of me running Tomcat in CMD succesfully and trying to connect to the same port in the IntelliJ (obviously failing to do so) but it does seem to be trying to connect, as in there is nothing really blocking the connection: https://i.stack.imgur.com/OYIvK.png

I tried every solution I could find:

• specify the same port for both JMX and RMI conversation (here and here)
• configure the Tomcat server again (here)
• make the the path to the Tomcat files is correct (here)
• made sure no Firewall/antivirus is blocking the network connection.
• uninstall and install again both IntelliJ and Tomcat
• specify the IP (here)
• using different ports

Thanks!
