Trinitycore has a guide https://trinitycore.info/ if you follow it properly it will result in a working server. Any time I’ve seen someone have a problem following it, they either missed a step by mistake, or tried to go off on a tangent, configuring it for their own needs during install/setup.

First make it work with the instructions, and once it is working, then tinker with it :P

It’s more likely trinitycore (which forked from mangos quite some time ago). https://github.com/TrinityCore/TrinityCore/

Mangos do still have a Wrath server branch. But specifically for 3.3.5 trinitycore is more often used.

Wireguard vpn into my home router. Works on android so fire sticks etc can run the client.

Should it, or should it be “1”? (just removing one, one)

Yeah but if you tick TCP and pay the extra postage you can get proof of receipt.

Actually how is your ISP giving out IPs to you? Mine uses IPv6 PD to give me a /48. And I then use SLAAC locally on the first /64 prefix on my LAN. Plus another /64 for VPN connections.

If you mean receiving RA/ND packets from your ISP (which are used to announce IPv6 prefixes) then you need to allow icmpv6 packets (if you don’t want to be able to be pinged, just block echo requests, ICMP in v4 and v6 carry important messages otherwise).

If your ISP uses DHCPv6 Prefix delegation you will need to allow packets to UDP port 546 and run a DHCPv6 client capable of handling PD messages.

If you have a fixed prefix, then you probably don’t need to use your ISPs SLAAC at all. You could just put your router on a fixed IP as <yourprefix>::1 and then have your router create RA/ND packets (radvd package in linux, not sure what it would be on pfsense) and assign IPs within your network that way.

If you have a dynamic prefix… It’s a problem I guess. But probably someone has done it and a google search will turn up how they handled it.

EDIT: Just clarified that the RA/ND packets advertise prefixes, not assign addresses.

I believe the privacy concerns are made moot if all consumer level routers by default blocked incoming untracked connections and you need to poke holes in the firewall for the ports you need.

Having said that, even knowing the prefix it’s a huge address space to port scan through. So it’s pretty secure too with privacy extensions enabled.

But for sure the onus is on the router makers for now.

I used HE for ages until my isp gave native ipv6. I also used sixxs back then too. Both provided good connectivity for the few sites that were around using it at the time.

This is my biggest bugbear about a lot of UK isps. They are dynamically allocating ipv6 prefixes for absolutely no good reason.

I’ve only ever done ipv6 using Linux directly as a firewall or a mikrotik router. So cannot help with pfsense I’m afraid.

You start by adding ipv6 and serving both. One side needs to move first. Content providers or isps.

The big tech companies are using ipv6. In the UK the isps are mostly offering it too.

Host both and help us move towards dropping Ipv4 some day. It’s not going to happen in a day.

Whenever anyone asks if I use AI. My answer is that, so far it hasn’t ever delivered working code. However the majority of times I used it, the code it did provide sent me in the right direction.

So it’s not useless. And I know tools have gotten better. But when I see companies seriously talking “AI first” and wanting vibe coding to be a main development strategy. I do really worry.

Yeah I think allowing a write in answer is too risky. You will end up with 12 unique text answers otherwise.

I do like the idea of the equivalent of an open verdict. Which is probably a mix of options 1 and 3 from your list. If you don’t believe either of the provided options are suitable and you don’t want to skip then this option would be a nice thing.

Needs a skip option for questions you’re really not comfortable giving a reply to (I maybe missed it if there). I hit one I really did feel was far too subjective to give a reply to that might even potentially be taken seriously.

Otherwise a nice idea.

Maybe c# has similar. There’s \r\n or \n like c++ and Environment.NewLine.

Probably it’s similar in that Environment.NewLine takes into account the operating system in use and I wonder if endl in c++ does the same thing?

This was exactly what came to mind when I read the post.

Yeah I don’t see it as a problem when the users control access to their own posts.

It’s when they require a sign in to see anything, it’s a problem.

It’s strategically placed right next to the ESP so that the car gives you a 15.000 volt shock anytime you turn it off.

Just like that poor guy at the start of Ghostbusters.

Yeah, it shouldn’t happen in a release. But, if I had a penny for every time I’ve seen the last minute development that wasn’t tested yet and not even due for the current release squeezed in. I’d literally have a pound, or dollar or whatever else has 100 pennies in.

In a professional sense my experience is that they’re more often the result of under-staffing and rigid, fixed release schedules.

Yeah. I didn’t understand what they meant by the wtf there. Seemed to me someone wondered if the Action would have a localised version of i (making this stay lowercase on a phone was harder than it should be) or if it used the same i. So made a simple test for it.

Not really sure it’s a wtf unless they expected a different result.
