Microsoft Teams and Join Link problem

I’ve recently upgraded Microsft Teams to version 1.4.00.4855 (I run it on openSUSE Linux but I think this problem can be related to the rpm build and maybe even the deb) basically the external Join Invite by URL stopped working. Digging around in the browser the content-type: "msteams" it’s opened by the lanucher "/usr/bin/teams" luckily it’s a simple shell script, apparently they added some switch messing up the URL variable. ...

NetworkManager modifies /etc/hosts

There is an annoying bug (or feature depends on point of view) every restart/reconnect managed by NetworkManager, restore the original /etc/hosts loaded on startup. I’ve made a 3 line script inspired by visudo to manual edit the hosts file and prevent the other unexpected modifies: File like (with +x attribute): /usr/sbin/vihosts #!/bin/sh sudo chattr -i /etc/hosts sudo vim /etc/hosts sudo chattr +i /etc/hosts

Linux - Removing all IP information from an interface

If an interface has already had IP addresses assigned to it, and all of the addresses need to be removed (along with their routes), there is one handy command to accomplish all of these tasks. ip address flush takes an interface name as an argument. Let’s look at the output of ip address show just before and just after removing all IPs. [root@logistic]# ip address show dev eth0 2: eth0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast qlen 100 link/ether 00:80:c8:f8:4a:51 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff inet 192.168.99.35/24 brd 192.168.99.255 scope global eth0 inet 192.168.99.37/24 brd 192.168.99.255 scope global secondary eth0:0 [root@logistic]# ip address flush Flush requires arguments. [root@logistic]# ip address flush dev eth0 [root@logistic]# ip address show dev eth0 2: eth0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast qlen 100 link/ether 00:80:c8:f8:4a:51 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
