Getting your public IP address from the command-line
Posted by jpluimers on 2016/01/13
Many sites giving your public IP address return a web page with a bloat of html. From the command-line, you are usually only interested in the IP-address itself. Few services return exactly that.
Below are command-line examples to provide the public IP address mostly from a *nix perspective. Usually you can get similar commands to work with Windows binaries for wget and Windows binaries for curl.
In the end, I’ve opted for commands in this format, as I think akamai will last longer than the other sites (but does not include an end-of-line in the http result hence the echo on Mac/*nix):
- Mac / *nix:
- curl http://whatismyip.akamai.com && echo
- wget -q -O – http://whatismyip.akamai.com && echo
- Windows
- curl http://whatismyip.akamai.com
- wget -q -O – http://whatismyip.akamai.com
I’ve not tried aria2 yet, but might provide commands for that in the future.
These are the Linux permutations for akamai:
curl whatismyip.akamai.com && echo curl ipv4.whatismyip.akamai.com && echo curl ipv6.whatismyip.akamai.com && echo curl ipv4.whatismyip.akamai.com && echo && curl ipv6.whatismyip.akamai.com && echoThe last two are convenient when you have both IPv4 and IPv6 configured on “the outside”.
You can replace curl with wget -q -O – (which outputs to stdout) for each command. You can even ommit the http:// (as that is the default protocol for both curl and wget).

Fighting with IPv6 – There and back again
Posted by jpluimers on 2016/01/09
Interesting:
During the last weeks I finally got my hands dirty with IPv6. A comment on my blog and an email informed me that my server (hosting this blog) is not reachable via IPv6, albeit it has an IPv6 address. That said, I tried to get that running and fell into several holes, due to firewalls, […]

paping – Cross-platform TCP port testing, emulating the functionality of ping (port ping) – Google Project Hosting
Posted by jpluimers on 2015/12/22
Hopefully someone will move this to Github before Google code goes down: paping – Cross-platform TCP port testing, emulating the functionality of ping (port ping) – Google Project Hosting.
Paping (pronounced pah ping) is a computer network administration utility used to test the reachability of a host on an Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) network and to measure the time it takes to connect to a specified port

StartSSL indeed offers free Class1 certificates for any subdomain
Posted by jpluimers on 2015/11/20
StartSSL does in fact offer free SSL certs for subdomains, though they are Class 1 certificates.
It works: just start the process for the domain, then when you get to the step for entering a subdomain, enter any one (of course www works, but you can do the process multiple times so register certificates for multiple subdomains).

Research notes on Diffie Hellman over WebSockets over a MittM http proxy to setup an encapsulated secure channel
Posted by jpluimers on 2015/06/17
Inspired by CloudFlare Keyless SSL, I have this idea of using Diffie Hellman over WebSockets over a MittM based http proxy (which intercepts and decrypts HTTPS traffic) like mitmproxy (but them from a commercial vendor to inspect web traffic) to setup an encapsulated secure channel.
I know SSH uses Diffie Hellman to setup a secure channel over a binary TCP connection.
Binary communication over HTTP usually means WebSocket.
I don’t want WebSSH (which does use WebSockets, but is probably filtered by the MitM proxy anyway).
Maybe either of these open source tools will work:
If these don’t work, I need to do more research.
Since I use C# and .NET for much of my work, I started the WebSocket over HTTP C# query.

Moving my BitBucket mercurial repository to git was a lot harder than I hoped for (but moving to GitHub was easy)
Posted by jpluimers on 2015/06/10
After reading Converting Hg repositories to Git directed me into reading Bitbucket: Converting Hg repositories to Git I hoped moving my Mercurial repository on BitBucket to a Git repository would be something like following the steps.
It wasn’t.
First of all, hg-git on a Windows system requires Python or TortoiseHg. Neither of these I wanted to install for a one-off conversion.
So I took a throw-away Linux VM, and did the steps below. But let me first explain why.
Motivation
My motivation for moving away from BitBucket to GitHub, especially for projects containing markdown documentation.
When writing documentation in Markdown, being able to in-line reference pictures or have relative-references to other documents. This works perfectly in local Markdown tools (like MarkdownPad 2 or LightPaper).
