  • IP address blacklist seemingly doesn't [true only for proxied Kiwis, fixed in v1.336]

    Okay, today's v1.336 release now applies the ip blacklist to incoming connections made via the proxy. Because the filtering in done in the Kiwi server instead of iptables a Kiwi log entry is made when the blacklist filter hits. iptables is still used for non-proxy connections for performance reasons.

    The "ipt" shell alias now automatically includes the "-v" argument so you can see the packet counter for the iptable filtering rules. I.e. an incrementing packet count means the blacklist filter has been hit. Use "iptz" or "iptc" to clear the counters. These aliases can be used on the admin page console tab.

  • Kiwi BBAI software installation instructions [updated 4-Mar-24]

    I am currently using a couple of those stacking headers with the extra-long 8.5mm tails. The trick is to insert the pins only partially into the AI headers. This is not difficult because the insertion force is so great. The problem is to get all 46 pins aligned and moving together without bending any. The Kiwi board can go flush onto the new headers as usual. It gives you about 12mm more spacing between the two boards.

    Not the best photo, but you can sort of get the idea. Also note the PMIC heatsink. It wasn't exactly what I wanted but is better than nothing. The random wires is a hack for the console serial port so I didn't have to wait on shipping for the special adapter cable from DigiKey. On the left going out of frame is the USB connection for the fan power.

    The rationale for the device tree / kernel overlays change is given here: https://elinux.org/Beagleboard:BeagleBoneBlack_Debian#Where_did_the_slots_file_go.3F

    You should be able to use the "clone" admin function. All that does is copy over .json file to kiwi.config/ and do an immediate restart. You'll have to re-select 14-channel mode and anything else you've changed of course.

  • wsprdaemon and kiwirecorder

    And you've probably noticed there is a new forum category "WSPR, wsprdaemon, kiwirecorder". Should hopefully make it easier to find things.
