Björn GohlaIt turns out I had an OpenBSD.Amsterdam instance I had never upgraded 😬
Luckily, going manually from 7.2 to 7.9 worked 😅
Jan@tubsta I used https://comfy.guide/server/smtpd-email/ for the dmarc part that I was not used to. I found out that it is not hard. All the other parts were setup using the great manual pages:
https://man.openbsd.org/wg
https://man.openbsd.org/pf.conf
https://man.openbsd.org/smtpd.conf
And #openbsdams ptr guide:

I learned, that I can run a frontend on a tiny VM and don't need much storage there. I get all the benefits of a full mail server for just a few euros. And it runs openbsd - perfect
OpenSMTPD + Dovecot email server
Installation For OpenBSD (opensmtpd should be installed by default): pkg_add opensmtpd-filter-rspamd rspamd dovecot For Arch Linux: pacman -S opensmtpd opensmtpd-filter-rspamd rspamd dovecot For Debian Linux: apt install opensmtpd opensmtpd-filter-rspamd rspamd dovecot-imapd dovecot-lmtpd Prerequisites Open ports 25 (SMTP), 465 (submission) and 993 (IMAPS). Port 25 will be used by other email servers to deliver mail to your server, 465 will be used by your server for submitting mail to other servers, and 993 will be used for serving mail to your email clients (e.
BørgeSo this is where my peeps at!
Hello everyone, my name is Børge and I am happy to get back into the BSD world, though only for personal projects for now.
I was a sysadmin for a small telco a while ago and we used Solaris/SPARC and FreeBSD/i386 for our servers, while I tried my hand at OpenBSD for my personal server. The network was all Cisco at the beginning, with some Juniper equipment for peering at the end but I did not get any experience with those unfortunately. I do have a certificate in SS7 somewhere, the signaling protocol telcos use for voice calls, but have forgotten pretty much all of it.
These days work is "cloud everything", which all seems to be based on Linux-something.
Reminiscing of "the good, old days" I wondered if I could run a BSD server anywhere to tap into my sysadmin background a little, or if I would have to use some Linux distribution.
Searching for BSD hosting providers, I am very happy I discovered #OpenBSDAms which I use for OpenBSD hosting (obviously).
Then I came across #BoxyBSD where I was lucky enough to get a FreeBSD instance.
Last but not least I came across a cheap VPS provider where I could run NetBSD. I don't mention the provider because I'm not sure I can recommend them yet.
I've been on Mastodon a little while, mostly reading as there is so much of interest to find here, though also because I'm quite shy, but hope to maybe post something about what I do now and then.
I really like all the *BSDs, they just do things in a way that seems sensible to me, so being here feels a lot like coming home.
So that's me a little about me. #introduction
How are you?

Freshly setup OpenBSD 7.6 host on @OpenBSDAms
Next steps are setting up a gopher server and hacking around on it.

gyptazyI just got some mail - I mean real mail - with stickers!
I love getting such mails! Thanks a lot for shipping them @[email protected] & @[email protected]!
PS: Just have a look at the stamp ❤️

Paul Buetow@45H @mischa @OpenBSDAms @h3artbl33d @solene Am a proud #openbsdams user, too, btw! Everything smooth and seamless there.
Samuel Chase@chakuari I am self-hosting TheLounge on an #OpenBSD VM from obsd.ams #openbsdams
TheLounge is rather usable on mobile devices. I can just open it in my mobile browser.
Was a long time irssi/weechat user (on a tmux/screen session), but it's nice to have this in the browser, and use emoji and stuff.

Andy Alderwick@solene Ah cool! Thank you 😊 I was just thinking I actually did the reverse when I got my #OpenBSDAms VMs in the first place: I used /bsd.rd to back up the original disks elsewhere before I started playing with FDE. I'm glad I wasn't missing anything obvious!
