Issue: Network connections were being made but TLS handshakes were timing out due to firewall/proxy intercepting HTTPS responses. Pre-checking with curl -I was hanging. Solution: - Skip pre-checking (was causing hangs) - Attempt direct downloads with aggressive timeout handling - Use both wget and curl as fallbacks (different timeout behaviors) - Try sources in priority order (rfxn, GitHub API, GitHub direct) - Fail fast with proper timeout handling (connect-timeout, read-timeout) - Gracefully fall back to offline archives or manual instructions Improvements: - No more hanging on HTTPS negotiation - Faster failure detection (30s max per attempt) - Both wget and curl tried for redundancy - Clear user feedback on which source is being attempted - Pre-downloaded archives checked if all sources fail - Works on networks with proxy/firewall HTTPS interception
🧪 Linux Server Toolkit - DEV Branch
STATUS: 🚀 Development & Testing Branch (Separate from Production)
This is the
devbranch for testing, development, and experimentation. Changes here are isolated from production and can be safely tested before merging to main.
🚀 Quick Start
One command - pulls dev branch with YELLOW ⚠️ BETA banner:
curl -sL https://git.mull.lol/cschantz/Linux-Server-Management-Toolkit/archive/dev.tar.gz | tar xz && source linux-server-management-toolkit/run.sh
When exiting (option 0), answer "yes" and cleanup happens automatically - no extra steps.
