Hmmm. Got everything set uo and working after testing. Update, reboot, no internet connection.
Anybody familiar with DELL PowerEdge servers? I've got a T140 here that I was going to use and replace my VPS as I can run some other services as well as my current ones with this. Getting ready to install Debian to it and have 2 available bootlable drives. A 2tb SATA and "PXE Device 1: Embedded NIC 1Port 1Partiton 1" which shows as approx 500gb drive. I'm not entirely sure what the Embedded NIC port drive is tho. My question is, would installing Debian to it as my main drive and using the 2tb drive for storage be OK?
The server I scored that was left behind by my previous employer is a DELL PowerEdge T140. With power backup/reserve. Pair that with the couple DELL OptiPlex 5080 micro's, HP ProDesk 400 G3 minis & assortment of other towers, monitors, etc & and was a pretty sweet haul.
My previous employer is trying to cheat me and not pay out my unused vacation hours. That's not going to fly with me. You have until the end of the week to initiate a deposit or hand me a check. Otherwise you get to deal with lawyers, labor board, etc.
Cool. Scored a Dell OptiPlex 5080 from work. New owner tossed the previous owners left behind desk computer out so being as I live upstairs, I took it. Wiped the drive and slapped a fresh Debian install on it and everything seems to be working fine. Spoke to new owner and he plans to junk all the equipment left behind and is going to let me take it all. 2 more 5080's, 2 other Dell systems and 2 Lenovos, as well as 3 or 4 Acer v206hql monitors. What I'm super interested in, is the server upstairs. Can't wait to see what's contained in that rack. Pretty sweet score tho.
I've seen the new owners of where I work do more in 3 days than I have seen done in 3 years. Amazing.
Tried introducing somebody to Bitcoin. They invested a dump of money into Chain link "because of what it does, and it has new stuff that more people are gonna use". There you have it.
An IP from Turkey has been busy today trying to access my server. If they gain access, I wish I could see the look of disappointment on their face when they realize they wasted time.

It's crazy how often customers (complete strangers) walk into my work and throw marijuana at me. Dabs, wax, flower, etc. I'm blessed with many forms.
