Over the past month or so, I’ve been investigating the BCM43602 chip, and its ability to: 1. work on freebsd using wifibox, 2. suspend with acpi’s s3/suspend-to-ram.| Joshua.Hu Joshua Rogers’ Scribbles
By default, FreeBSD uses the standard ntpd(8) daemon that is built with the FreeBSD world. This daemon only supports symmetric keys for encryption which must be configured per client/server duo, and thus cannot at-scale guarantee authenticity of the data received from the Network Time Protocol (NTP) server. Recent developments like RFC 8915/Network Time Security (NTS) have allowed for the automatic establishment of those keys over TLS. With a focus on both authenticity (so an attacker on-the-...| Joshua.Hu Joshua Rogers’ Scribbles
Unlike systemd-based Linux distributions, FreeBSD does not come with a switch to automatically turn on DNS-over-TLS (DoT) for the system resolver, and requires a bit of work to use an encrypted channel for domain resolution. In this post, we’ll look at how to set up DoT for FreeBSD using unbound(8), enable some hardening, and block all non-encrypted DNS traffic over port-53.| Joshua.Hu Joshua Rogers’ Scribbles
