Maxwell configuration

The NixOS configuration of Maxwell

Switching configuration

1. Mount remotely the secrets directory

   $ ssh -A maxwell sshfs wigfrid.ydns.eu:$PWD $PWD -o allow_other

2. Run nixos-rebuild

   $ nixos-rebuild test -I nixos-config=configuration.nix --target-host maxwell --use-remote-sudo

3. Unmount the secrets directory

   ssh -A maxwell fusemount -u $PWD

Testing changes

1. Build a VM

   $ nixos-rebuild build-vm -I nixos-config=testing.nix

2. Change the open files limit

   $ ulimit -n 90000

3. Run the VM without internet (to avoid a mess)

   $ unshare -nc result/bin/run-maxwell-vm
