  • Then that’s misleading to the customer. When you buy something online and have paid for it, it should be collected and delivered.

    When you need to pay a tip to get the omployers/contracters of the company to do business with to do their job, there is something terribly wrong with the situation. Tips should be for complementing employers with their good/excelent serice, not to ensure they have something to eat while the company earns enough and underpays their staff.

    That’s how an open market should work, companies paying their straff living wages and charging what a product/service costs to be viable. When the product/service is good enough, the customers will come, when it isn’t, they go out of business, freeing employers for work that is values correctly. The US market of underpaying employers and required tips from customers looks more like modern slavery/forced labour.









  • You need to include the files in the zone file. Bind 9.18.18 is a mess with the changed DNSSEC setup, it broke my domains as well. I’t isn the bind documentation, so I have to refer you there. I have no access to my setup now (or my browser history) as I’m not at my computer.

    Edit: managed to get in dns.

    named.conf.local: zonefile needa to be the .signed file the unsigned zone file must have both keys included, best is via absolute path:

    $INCLUDE "/etc/bind/keys/example.com.123456.key"
    

    for both the ZSK and KSK keys. The include is to get the RRSIG entries.




  • I’ve setup my email via a VPN to my own server.

    • DNS, mail, business web, cusromer web on VPSes (2, 1 primary, 1 secondary DNS only)
    • Personal email, incoming and outgoing via VPS, personal websites (all static) on local system (RPi 4 8GB)

    This gives the advantage that your outgoing email always comes from the VPS ip address (pick a VPS provider that is trusted) and when your line is down, incoming email is cached on your VPS. It’s a tad of double work, but pretty secure. Even connecting to my employer to work from home is not a big issue. (and that connection is limited to it’s own vlan)

    Also, with this method, you can route the mail into your network via port 26 when 25 is blocked or even set an outgoing vpn to your VPS and route the email that way. You’ll be provider independent at home. (I even have a private ipv6 /48 via a tunnel broker)

    You’ll need to work a lot on your knowledge though, without DNSSEC, SPF, DKIM and DMARC the big 2 (Google and hotmail) will refuse your email.







  • I bought a fun domain in '98, used it for email only. Next to that I bought a domain with just my surname. I have several sites in that domain, for my personal stuff, one for the pets, our wedding,… It’s a lot more flexible then using the complete name. (But you have to be lucky enough to catch it)

    Next to these 2 I have 2 others in my countries tld for messing about with. Those are a lot cheaper and my company has 3 more domains. The total set costs me €90 a year.
