Is it OK to change /etc/machine-id?

August 11, 2022 by Magenaut

I cloned a disk (SSD) and put the cloned disk into another machine. Now both systems have the same value in /etc/machine-id. Is it any problem to simply edit /etc/machine-id to change the value? Can I do this while the system is running (or do I need to boot from a Live USB)?

Universal way to logout from terminal via dbus

August 7, 2022 by Magenaut

I’m new with dbus, and saw different ways to log out from terminal depending on desktop env. But I’m curious is there any way to log out from any desktop env using dbus messages?

Connect with D-Bus in a network namespace

August 7, 2022 by Magenaut

I am using network namespaces such that I can capture network traffic of a single process. The namespace is connected through the “host” via a veth pair and has network connectivity through NAT. So far this works for IP traffic and named Unix domain sockets.
