Zerotier is a mesh VPN, so it's more like a private P2P network. Traffic doesn't have to go through a central server. It's also a hosted service, so you don't have to keep your own box working. Tinc and Wireguard are similar. I keep meaning to get a wireguard network setup, and see if I can get rid of the IPSec/OpenVPN…

Do Cisco, Twitter, Ebay, Amazon, Google, Dell EMC, HP, Fox, Nintendo, or Sony next.

That's a little too real here. The central library is next to the bus stop, and they should have modelled the restrooms after truck stop showers.
-
Sort of. Don't name it something like "Bitch Magnet Hosting" or anything else offensive.

Ironic indeed. :smiley: DeerWillow? We can add deers to the managerie. :smile: Why not riff on that? You've already got a brand with some recognition, presumably, just expand it.

I think this needs a poll. Clear Willow is probably the easiest to recognize immediately.

I like how people have run the equipment for a little while. I know it's not going to fail right away, but on the other hand, I won't be able to RMA it if it's a lemon either. It's also about the person signing the checks, and I don't feel like trying to convince them eBay equipment is fine. That's not a hill to die on.…

> It's a valid question. Refurb stuff just isn't an option at this time. :smile: My own stuff sure, but this isn't my stuff. Oh no! I appreciate the input, and I appreciate your idea! I can be terse at times, and it's not any sort of emotion. It's not happy, sad, angry, or whatever; It just is. I think I was super hyped on…

Because it's for a business production network, and not my personal lab. I love refurb equipment as much as the next poster, but that comes with certain tradeoffs I'm not willing to make when I'm getting paid by someone else. I happily got rid of an Edgerouter a couple months ago. I like Ubiquiti's wireless stuff, but I'm…

New: Yes Support Contract: No It does need to be new equipment, but I don't need a support contract for it, we're not at that level yet. Yeah, I used some Netgears with 10G uplinks and stacking at a previous place, but those are $1.3K new.

AppStreams replacing Software Collections is the biggest change. Everything else is pretty much the same aside from new software versions. The RedHat world has settled down quite a bit after the systemd upheaval of 7.…

Plus * tmux * curl * tree * which * jitterentropy * rsync * systemd * firewalld Minus * wget * nano

Try yum autoremove to get rid of the orphans.

I have a RPi3B+ sitting in my closet. Former job gave it to me for a project that never happened, and I haven't really thought of anything to do with it. My biggest problem with setup was getting Fedora or CentOS running on it. There are lots of things out there that look interesting. I've been thinking about picking up…

I have plans to check out Urbackup, which is supposed to have something like that.

Wow, they made ZDnet. They hit the mainstream.

Do you have to go into the server and kill VM processes? I learned turning on VM Guest Service and not installing the agent with cause Proxmox to hang indefinitely on shutdown until the VM processes are kill. (I don't remember the exact terminology since it's been a while at this point.) Since it's using systemd, it will…

I would go with CentOS on baremetal, and then run VMs or containers on top of it if needed. CentOS is a full operating systems with all the tools and goodies available for Linux. ESXi is a cut down product that is really nerfed unless you can write a check to VMware. It has been a while since I tried to do VMware on the…

I have some OpenWRT stuff around that I would really like to deprecate. These days I'm using OPNsense wherever I can. It doesn't run some weird config system on top of a Unix-like OS, and it has everything I want out of the box, like LDAP auth. I have a Netgear Orbi system at my house, and while the wireless works really…

This seems like a fun project. Didn't someone have a benchmarking script to collect numbers about hosts? Weddings are about seeing how much alcohol can be consumed, so sure. :) We don't eat fast food because it's healthy. Cheap crap is cheap crap, and it gets the job done when the job isn't important. :) I know where to go…

You can get crappy performance using expensive hardware RAID cards too, so they aren't a silver bullet for IO performance. Back in the day when we were lucky to get 2 single core procs, sure get a RAID card with a mem cache and battery backup to offload write caching and parity calculations. Now, it doesn't really matter.
