amtm amtm - the Asuswrt-Merlin Terminal Menu

[Skeptical.me]

I just upgraded to 384.15_beta1 and this is the result I'm getting:

admin@RT-AX88U-E390:/tmp/home/root# amtm
-sh: /jffs/scripts/amtm: not found

Edit: Using "unalias amtm" as a command solved this issue for me. Everything is as it was before the update

 

[L&LD]

@Skeptical.me type unalias amtm and then try amtm again.

After you're in amtm, type 'uu'.

Thank you very much kind sir.

And thank you to Merlin and @thelonelycoder for building awesome tools we can all enjoy using.

Hi Lonelycoder

Im getting this when trying to regenerate CA cert.

 This re-generates the pixelserv-tls CA certificate
 and purges all domain certificates genereated
 by it.

 This is necessary with the new required security
 settings enforced by Apple and other Companies.

 The new pixelserv-tls CA certificate will need to
 be replaced or imported into browsers and devices.

 Continue? [1=Yes e=Exit] 1

This is because I have the following structure /opt/var/lib/cache/pixelserv/ - has this been reported before ??

Move it to the standard directory /opt/var/cache/pixelserv/ then it works.

Is Unbound in amtm somewhere?

I thought it was going to be added but I can't seem to find it, unless I'm not looking in the right section.

 

[L&LD]

No, it's not (yet).

[DAVID LONG]

Ok, thanks.

 

[heysoundude]

Unbound is an alternative to dnscrypt, right?
More modern or easier to configure, or “better” in some way that I’m not recalling, but if it’s getting included in amtm, it’s got to be something good to go along with upcoming Merlin etc versions.
I’m waiting for this flurry of new activity to settle down on all this beta action before the release versions make their way to my router. Maybe by then I’ll have it all put together in my head.

@heysoundude, I would say superior.

Not only more secure but much snappier too.

If you use dnscrypt because you require your DNS queries to be encrypted (hence that name), then Unbound isn't comparable out-of-the-box. Unbound cuts out the middle-man and let's you become your own DNS recursive resolver, but it does not encrypt those recursive queries. It can do DoT, but not in combination with recursive resolving.

So if you want DNS encryption, stick with dnscrypt or stubby. If you want to stop trusting public DNS servers (e.g. ISP DNS, Google DNS, Cloudflare, Quad9, NextDNS, etc.), then you can be your own DNS server with Unbound.

I've never trusted anyone but myself. Unbound forever!

Live and Let Die, eh?

I’ll have to think on that one...

Of course snappier: you’re eliminating a number of steps.

[L&LD]

@heysoundude and a number of attack vectors too.

 

[heysoundude]

How much space does my own DNS server need, I wonder?

Unbound is not an alternative to DNSCrypt, it's an alternative to Bind/dnsmasq, which happens to offer a few extra built-in features.

 

[L&LD]

On a 256GB USB drive like I have? Not much.

With a 2GB swap file, I'm using 2.17GB total.

 

[heysoundude]

It seems I’ll have to check the size of the memory stick I’ve got entware on...I suspect upgrading things will require hardware as well...
