To import a wireguard config to NetworkManager in linux, use the following command:
sudo nmcli connection import type wireguard file yourvpn.conf
This can be helpful because adding a wireguard configuration manually in desktop environments like KDE doesn’t always work.
This is more of a note to myself but if you want to upgrade PHP 7.4 in one go in FreeBSD, run the following command:
pkg install `pkg query %n-%v | grep php|grep --invert json | sed 's/74/80/; s/-7.*//'`
Note: The above command excludes anything with json, the reason is because the json extension is enabled in PHP 8 by default, so there’s no such package for it. If you have other PHP json packages installed, those will be excluded too.
To check what packages the command will replace, run:
pkg query %n-%v | grep php |grep --invert json | echo `sed 's/74/80/; s/-7.*//'`
If you know what you’re doing you can edit the command for other PHP versions.
Remove-AppxProvisionedPackage : The system cannot find the path specified.
Does this look familiar? This might help fix that error for you!
It could be a mismatch somewhere that makes that command to fail.
Instead check what packages dism.exe reports is installed, we use YourPhone as example here:
DISM.exe /online /Get-ProvisionedAppxPackages
Now look at the PackageName reported by dism, then start File Explorer and go to “C:\Program Files\WindowsApps”. Here you might see a folder called Microsoft.YourPhone_2019.1126.308.0_neutral_~_8wekyb3d8bbwe which is in fact the version installed on your system, to remove it, run:
DISM.exe /online /Remove-ProvisionedAppxPackage /PackageName:Microsoft.YourPhone_2019.1126.308.0_neutral_~_8wekyb3d8bbwe
And that’s it, you have successfully removed YourPhone from your computer.
NOTE: If you do not find the app you’re looking for under “C:\Program Files\WindowsApps”, then it isn’t installed and you have a stale entry somewhere. I do not know how to remove the stale entry that dism reports though, I’ll update if I manage find to out.
If a package/ebuild fails to compile on gentoo you can use this feature to continue where it failed. Useful if a compile fails and you need to make manual edits to the files. Or if a compile fails because of out of memory, can happen when you compile chromium. Run the following command:
FEATURES=keepwork emerge -av <package>
If you don’t use the “keepwork” feature, gentoo will unpack the source code again, configure and restart the compile, which might not be ideal in all cases.
There’s no need to have apache utils or tools to generate a Basic authentication password for nginx. Type the following in bash and replace user with the username you want:
printf "user:`openssl passwd -apr1`\n" >> /etc/nginx/.htpasswd
Let’s say your Windows domain is “domain.local” and your Windows DNS IP address is “192.168.1.55” and “192.168.1.56”
In OpenWrt, add this to /etc/config/dhcp:
option rebind_protection '0'
list server '/domain.local/192.168.1.55'
list server '/domain.local/192.168.1.56'
The trick here which isn’t well documented is that rebind protection MUST be set to ‘0’ otherwise lookups for *.domain.local will fail.
UPDATE: Be sure to NOT have filterwin2k set in dnsmasq (/etc/config/dhcp), if you do, gpupdate and AD-domain lookups will fail.
Now your other computers/devices/servers that use the dnsmasq DNS-server can resolve computers that are AD-connected.
