Standup Notes 2021 02 08
Participants (alphabetical): Allie, Conor, Erik, John, Kevin, Kushal, Mickael, Nina
New blocker-level issues:
-
Emails not being sent
-
iptables rules not applied on boot
-
Ossec-agent does not reconnect on reboot, Apache/Python error does not result in OSSEC alert
(Kushal) Mickael, since you have Focal install running, could you post list of installed packages (dpkg -L) (Mickael) Sure (Kushal) There seem to be issues with bento boxes missing certain packages. (Mickael) Agree, multiple such issues - may be worth finding a different vagrant provider (Kushal) That's why things seemed to be looking good in VMs (Conor) John has a PR for testinfra PR in Qubes. Surprisingly, the iptables rules are passing on John's PR. (Mickael) Also try rebooting
