system library:BIO_connect:Connection refused:../crypto/bio/bio_sock2.c

I got the strange error message 
system library:BIO_connect:Connection refused:../crypto/bio/bio_sock2.c
on executing 
openssl s_client -starttls smtp -connect mail.area23.at:587
when testing sendmail smtp tls with an Let's Encrypt SSL certificate.

If you got the same error message, ensure that
  1. sendmail is running (on mail server / relay host)
    test it with init rc script 
      /etc/init.d/sendmail status
    or simple by process listing tools, like 
      pstree | grep sendmaail
      pidof sendmail-mta
      ps fauxwww | grep sendmail
    and network server socket is bound 
      netstat -avn 2>&1 |less
    or fuser and your sendmail port
      fuser -v -n tcp 25
    or various variants of lsof, like
      lsof -i TCP:25

  2. sendmail is well configured (on mail server / relay host)
    this will take a little bit too long for that article
    in my case it was a wrong IPv6 address in sendmail.mc

    DAEMON_OPTIONS(`Family=inet6, Name=MTA-v6, Port=smtp, Addr=2600:1f14:1d6d:f202:8d53:fc57:c45d:6590')dnl
     
  3. mail server is reachable from outside 
    test it with 
     telnet [mailserver] [port]
    or brutal way with a network scanner, like nmap
      nmap -p 25,465,587 [mailserver]

    if mailserver is not reachable from outside, 
    then you must lookup on server and on client firewall rules, e.g
    .
      iptables -t filter --list
      iptables -6 -t filter --list
You could also simply run strace to see, what happens:
  strace openssl s_client -starttls smtp -connect mail.area23.at:587

strace openssl s_client -starttls smtp -connect [mailserver] [port]

Danger of huge monopolisation and checks and balances to keep up a living strong democracy

(Draft)

Monolopy (Conspiracy theory warning)

In mercantilism owning and potentially using a monopoly was considered as tactical advantage. Think about it, that China soonly has a monopoly on a lot of industrial products, but most of China's hardware exoported have an american, south korean or japanse label. 

When there might be a common closed source smart phone. personal computer or smart phone with only one operating system with market dominance over 90%, then we might run into a trap.

If later then, disassembling, reversing engineering is punished with high penalties and international legal claims, then social credit program can be introduced step by step by backdoor.

If your social credit is negative, then you might not have all functions enabled (on your monopoly phone or monopoly personal computer) (THIS MIGHT BE VERY DANGEROUS)


Attention, Huawei, Chinas biggest smart-phone brand and ready to soonly be main player also in african markets, is still android and open based on open source linux and I don't claim, that China will use such practices. But there is no guarantee, that US or Chinese companies would develop or exrend their powers to collect more data or control more individuals in entire world by monitoring them permanently. 
In open system, you can choose a other os to install on every hardware. I remember, that Sony Playstation implemented an other OS bootloader, where you could run linux on it. The community demanded it. Today no one tries to recommand LineageOS compatbility on Smart-Phone hardware.

Great ipv6 news from austrian mobile networks

Great ipv6 news from austrian mobile networks

Allmost all mobile providers in Austria implemented ipv6 protocol for 3G/4G/5G mobile net. 
When running ifconfig inside an android terminal, you can see, if ipv6 is already enabled at your device.

I tried to ping6 my little amazon server ipv6.darkstar.work and ping6 over icmp succeeded. 


When pinging6 from android, I started a tcpdump on my little amazon server in Oregon, to see if packets are coming well through.
Then, I tried to ping6 in the opposite direction and was so delighted. that the icmp6 ping6 from amazon subnet in Oregon passed without routing or netfilter blocking problems to my android device.



I was courious, if a service broker from the internet could reach a server socket on my android, so I installed Simple HTTP Server:


I tested my local android device http server successfully by using curl, wget, lynx and a test once from Tor Onion Router.
 
You can use of course another http fs server, like:

Franz Kafka - eine düstere Vorahnung? [Draft]

Bisher wurde das Wirken und Schaffen der Literatur von Franz Kafka rein nur auf mögliche Krankheiten, Persönlichkeit, das Verhältnis zu seinem Vater, den kulturellen Kontext seines Umfeld oder die albtraumhafte Bürokratie der K.& K. Monarchie psychologisiert.
Ich behaupte, dass möglicherweise eine düstere Vorahnung der Schrecken des Holocaust (siehe auch griechische Göttin Kassandra) in seinen Romanen sich manifestierten.

Die Verwandlung

Die unfreiwillige Metamorphose des tüchtigen Mannes Gregor Samsa in einen Käfer, der zuerst viele ernährte, den die Ernährten abschoben, alsbald er nicht mehr arbeitsfähig war, und gleichzeitig selbst erhaltende Berufstätigkeit fanden. ⟹ 

Interpretation: Vorahnung der unfreiwilligen Abschiebung in die Konzentrationslager.

Der Prozeß

Die Verhaftung des Prokuristen einer Bank Josef K. aus heiterem Himmel, weitere Verdächtigungen, Vor-Verurteilung durch sozial-psycholgische Einschätzung von Untergebenen in der Bank und letztendliche grausame Exekution. ⟹ 

Interpretation: Bei der Verhaftung passiert Josef K. relativ wenig, er wird jediglich davon informiert, dass er jetzt verhaftet wird. Personen wie der Prügler, die rein fiktiv zur Zeit der Monarchie waren, könnten eine Vorahnung auf SA & SS gewesen sein. Das Gericht, dass eher einem Schmierentheater gleicht, als einem hohen Gericht ist ein Hinweis auf die Arier Gesetzgebung und die Urteile während des NS-Regimes. Die grausame Exekution von Josef K. ohne offiziellen Henker oder rechtliche Formalität war zu keiner Epoche unseres europäischen Kulturraum üblich und deutet eine Vorahnung auf Ermorden ohne Information an die Öffentlichkeit und ohne institutionelle Todesstrafe durch Henker hin.

Amerika

Der einzig positive Roman von Franz Kafka. [...] ⟹ 

Interpretation: Die Schrecken des NS-Regime und Hitler-Stalin Packt wurden nur durch Kriegsbeteiligung der vereinigten Staaten von Amerika beendet. Deswegen endet die Geschichte "Amerika" als einzige positiv trotz vieler Wirrungen.

Das_Schloss

Ich laß den Roman nie fertig und muss mir noch eine kurze Zusammenfassung organisieren.[...] ⟹ 

Interpretation: [...]

Das Urteil

Georg Bendemann, Sohn eines Kaufmanns, verlobt und kurz vor der Heirat stehend, korrespondiert brieflich mit seinem – aus seiner Sicht – glücklosen Freund in Petersburg. Der Vater wirft Georg vor, die Leitung des Geschäftes an sich gerissen und eine nicht ehrenhafte Verlobte gewählt zu haben, außerdem den Freund aus St. Petersburg als Sohn und Vertrauten angenommen zu haben. Der Vater beendet die Auseinandersetzung mit den Worten: „Ich verurteile dich jetzt zum Tode des Ertrinkens!“ ⟹ 

Interpretation: Vorahnung auf den Hitler Stalin Packt. Der Vater Staat (k&k Monarchie) in der Juden gleichbehandelt wie bürgerliche Christen Chancen und Aufstiegsmöglichkeiten vorfanden wird zum grausamen Scharfrichter, der Stalinisten vertraut und als Söhne annimmt und bürgerliche Juden zum Tode verurteilt.


Achtung: Diese von mir aufgestellte These ist nur eine vage Hypothese.
Der Holocaust und die Schreckensherrschaft des NS-Regimes ist und bleibt eines der grausamsten Verbrechen der Menschheitsgeschichte.

Linux v6.7-rc8 kernel compiled today


Today, when I waked up before the new year, I downloaded the newest linux v6.7-rc8 kernel, made a classic menuconfig and readed a bit kernel documentation, before compiling the kernel.

Those new x86 based processor types are now experimental (beside AMD & Intel) supported by latest linux kernel:
