13:47 thd tcohen: What Firewall management system if any do you use with Docker?  I have been testing FirewallD for supposed better isolation of Docker interference in firewall rules.  I also note that RedHat has deprecated iptables in favour of nftables while Docker does not yet support nftables.
13:49 tcohen I think we set UFS
13:49 UFW
13:49 on the servers
13:49 it uses iptables
13:49 and I don't care what RedHat uses :-P
13:50 FirewallD: nice
13:50 another d-bus dependency but looks interesting
13:50 thd Docker officially reports that it is designed in such a way as to automatically create iptables rules which interfere with UFW.
13:51 Another RedHat dependency.
13:51 tcohen dbus is part of systemD anyway
13:51 we should've used dbus instead of RabbitMQ :-P
13:52 fridolin left #koha
13:52 thd The problem specifically between Docker and UFW is that UFW goes up and then Docker clobbers some UFW created rules.
13:53 tcohen that's interesting, if you have a link please share
13:58 thd In FirewallD, Docker creates a docker zone and provides docker-user filter in the docker zone for user rules to be taken account of by the automatic rules.  More importantly, the docker zone is isolated from other FirewallD zones avoiding interference.  Setting zone precedence is tricky and FirewallD puts ipset configurations in its own firewalld subdirectory in /etc/firewalld requiring firewalld specific commands to interface.

14:03 thd tcohen: https://docs.docker.com/networ[…]tering-firewalls/
14:05 There is a section for FirewallD integration and the section at the end warning of trouble when using UFW meaning that UFW and Docker ignore one another in unhelpful ways which can cause routing problems.
14:06 tcohen thanks for that
14:07 thd The commonly advised mitigation is to disable Docker management of the firewall but that also disables automatically created network bridges between containers and also between containers and the host system for exposing ports.
14:16 Too much potentially good user contributed configuration examples and assistance with particular problems for FirewallD is on RedHat mailing list or forum archives requiring a RedHat service contract to access.  Fedora is very public and people use Fedora often just to see what they can break but CentOS, RockyLinux, and RedHat Bugzilla do not compare with the abundance of use cases for UFW and other firewall management systems for open discussi
14:16 on of use case problems.

14:49 tcohen mtj: is your koha-build-pkg repo up to date?
14:49 I'm not finding where `yarn build` is called, and then the generated assets handled
14:50 in koha-dpkg-docker we are not being able to get the compiled assets get included on the final package
14:59 edveal Hello

15:03 lukeg hi
15:32 JasonGreene[m] I've built a 2nd server that should be a bit faster CPU.  Is there an easy way to transfer the current Koha system to the new server?
15:37 I found this > https://www.linkedin.com/pulse[…]-dump-backup-khan
15:54 paulderscheid[m] Dump and load.
15:55 Should work if the version is identical.

16:05 caroline those thinking of coming to kohacon, would you be interested in a visit of the national archives? We're not archivists, so I was wondering if it's interesting at all (I think it is, but I'm me). I'm already organizing a visit to the national library, but the archives are in another building elsewhere in the city
16:06 so it would probably be a separate activity
16:08 thd Any national archives would be interesting to me but sadly I may not be likely to come in person.
16:10 caroline yes unfortunately, it will probably be an in-person visit only... I'll try to think of something interesting for remote participants... if anyone has ideas let me know! :)
16:12 afaik there hasn't been cultural activities or social activities online before, unless I'm mistaken?
16:14 thd I would be interested in knowing why Library and Archives Canada sold out to OCLC.  The AMICUS Z39.50 server was previously open to the world and allowed queries of the subject authority records database.
16:14 caroline me too lol!
16:15 I can't believe a national library has closed their Z39.50 server behind a paywall
16:15 they should not be getting public subsidies if they do that
16:17 thd Library and Archives Canada had previously been one of the few world leading models for open records access for providing the authorities databases access via Z39.50.
16:17 edveal_ joined #koha
16:17 caroline but anyway, LAC is in Ottawa, so that is not the one I'm takling about. I'm talking about Bibliothèque et Archives nationales du Québec which has a big central library in Montreal and a big archive center in Montreal as well
16:17 LAC has nothing in Montreal as far as I know
16:19 I was thinking of organizing a off-kohacon road trip either to Quebec city or Ottawa on one of the weekends surrounding the conference (either the one before or the one after)
16:20 thd I had wondered about that.  I assumed that you might have been contemplating a long road trip on the way to Ottawa for the day.
16:20 edveal__ joined #koha
16:21 caroline I thought Quebec city would be more interesting. Ottawa has nice museums, but the city itself is a bit ordinary imo. While Quebec city has nice museums AND the old city is very pretty and it has the citadel, etc.
16:24 reiveune bue
16:24 (bye)
16:24 reiveune left #koha
16:35 thd Perhaps Ottawa follows the unfortunate US pattern of locating administrative functions in a location chosen as a compromise between major population centres and thus is not a major population centre itself.  Hence, the US has Washington DC built on a swamp as a north south geographic compromise and similar compromises for the capital in many states.
16:37 caroline I think it's something like that. It still could have developped in a nice city, but it's really just a city where people go to work Monday to Friday, 9 to 5 and go back home in a neighbouring city. (I'm exaggerating, but at the same time, not ;) )
16:38 It's in between the historical Haut-Canada (now Ontario) and Bas-Canada (now Quebec) so it makes sens that it was chosen as a compromise
16:41 thd I had done some tracing of what is called by link_bibs_to_authorities.pl .  The old build authority records functionality is still present and would take effect if your Koha preference is set appropriately to allow the primitive authority records to be built.
16:45 When authority records are already present, the linking function takes a match from a text query but does not attempt to use possible existing links to an official authority controlled database which may exist for recent or enhanced bibliographic records.
16:46 The link is stored in $9 for Koha so as to avoid clobbering $0 but may have originally used $0 before we may have changed to $9 to avoid clobbering.
16:46 edveal joined #koha
16:48 thd $2 seems as if it may be only used for display.  I did not discover anything using $2 for thesaurus matching in linking.
16:49 Thus the linking is still rather primitive but much better than bibliographic records without an aid to using some degree of authority control.
17:08 tcohen: https://github.com/chaifeng/ufw-docker seemed to be the most well considered approach to mitigating UFW and Docker.  It was not as readily accessible to me earlier as the Docker documentation link given that I have already been testing FirewallD since discovering widely reported problems between UFW and Docker.
17:11 tcohen: Limitations with UFW in Docker could include unintended exposure of Docker0 and rules to block troublesome IP address sources from intentionally exposed ports possibly not being applied because the Docker rule for accessing the port has precedence.  Docker also tries to take control with FirewallD by making the docker zone default but the zone priority issue can be fixed.  Zone priority assignment in FirewallD should be documented more
17:11 and given consideration in any guide.

20:01 JasonGreene[m] tech question.  Why is it that every time I run "apt update"  for koha I get this
20:01 Failed to fetch http://debian.koha-community.o[…]/stable/InRelease  The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 3C9356BBA2E41F10
20:01 and I clear out  koha.list to refresh it and the "failed to fetch" still happens

21:01 thd JasonGreene[m]: aleshia had given you the recently replaced method for managing apt repository keys in Debian based systems.  The new method isolates key trust to the particular repository for which they were intended instead of trusted for everything as in the now old method.
21:04 aleisha sorry that's right it is old. we have this documentation JasonGreene[m] https://wiki.koha-community.or[…]precation_warning
21:13 JasonGreene[m] <aleisha> "sorry that's right it is old. we..." <- I follow the old way and the new way on that page and get the same thing

21:20 lukeg anyone else experiencing patron searches not working in k-t-d? no errors, I am just not turning up any results

22:35 dcook .
23:03 dpk EO: I am looking to add some ansible scripting to apply some or all of the systemic changes we need for the migration from 44.24 to 44.25.  This includes fixing SNMP community address, NTP client, DHCP provide dns and ntp addresses, ip dns servers, and logging destination.
23:04 I have some Ansible scripts that check for wrong settings before modifying a server, but I could just set the value to the desired state and save some steps.  Any feeling on the approach?
23:05 One alternative is to write a fact gathering module and then only trigger a script based update if one of the facts does not match expected value.
