I'm just going to be vulnerable for a minute here. I met the first person in real life who had similar server-y linux-y obsessions to me and we'd send eBay links of systems to drool over to eachother. They ended up being a terrible person but hid it from me pretty well until they couldn't anymore and now I no longer have someone to chat with about those things.

So um, I guess I'm open for applications for the position of "nerdy friend who I nerd too hard with about network infrastructure and Linux packages" now

Thats a shame!

Once upon a time, me and a few buddies had a pretty nice BGP setup going between a few sites.

He maintained two sites, I maintained both my home network, and a cloud-based router, and had my other friend connected up.

It was a pretty sweet setup. iBGP routing, we had a form of dynamic multipoint VPN.

Was a fun experiment. But, good things can't last forever. So... my network is the only piece left.

And- I don't trust anyone else enough to setup any access at all.
