Looking at this project now, just doesn't seem like they have updated much. I like the idea of being to have more than one unit and create a mesh environment.
Watching this to see how it goes, and if I want to add it to my rPi list.
@scottalanmiller That's the whole reason I want DNS setup. I want to be able to SSH by hostname, not IP address, however I guess your right, maybe I just need to setup the host names on the jumpbox.
that's all that I do. Maintain the /etc/hosts file and I never run into a need to use IP Addresses since I don't SSH from random box to random box.
It is not uncommon to only have servers approved to access the storage listed. So many shops will go in and add a server one by one to enable access. If your servers almost never change, this works pretty well and is extremely secure. You can do this in the firewall too, for even more security. But if you are using DevOps and creating and destroying VMs regularly you will want to automate this in some fashion.
For home laptop use (non-gaming) be sure to check out PC-BSD. It's screaming fast, super stable and very responsive.
In this particular article it was a solid, but not fastest, performer in the transcoding benchmarks they ran, which were about as close to web serfing and video watching. PC-BSD is the fastest bar none if you're compiling software or iops intensive workloads.
That's what I felt like, a full decade!! I really did feel like it was brand new when I started at CitiGroup, just a couple weeks before that. I was managing OF systems then.
It has OpenSSH. If you had only telnet, someone decided to just leave it wide open. VMS Admins are hard to find and always were.
I didn't take well to OpenVMS, mostly because near the end of my time there in 2002 they tossed it at me. Gotta love the, you know UNIX, so you already know everything you need to know about OpenVMS attitude. Couldn't have set me up to fail any better, and I was too young to know what was going down.
