Domain issues
Well,
My web server sending people to the wrong domain seems to only occur at home. I have no clue what is causing it but it is rather frustrating

Weird domain issue
Well,
I couldn’t get VestaCP to work properly with Nextcloud so I am back to Virtualmin. Problem is, some domains don’t end up going to the correct site although they not do this in all browsers.

Control Panel
I have decided to switch from Virtualmin back to VestaCP for managing my site. There was nothing wrong with Virtualmin from a technical standpoint, just a couple of issues I hated working around (adding a smccloud.com subdomain was the main one). Although I do lose IPv6 support until March, I doubt many people will even notice that.

Charter/Spectrum
Well, I was reading a news article today about how Charter/Spectrum is telling the FTC that Title II is making it so they don’t invest in their network but they are telling investors that it isn’t causing any issues. Also had a link in the article saying that every user on their 60Mbps tier will be upgraded to 100Mbps, the problem I have with this is they are not increasing the upload speed. Still a crappy 5Mbps, its taking me forever to complete my first backup with CrashPlan Small Business due to this.

Docker
Well,
I have been playing around with creating Docker containers. I’ve created two so far. One to mine Monero (XMR) with a CPU where everything is automatically set and the other is to run a full Monero Node. It can be difficult to create the container, but it is actually fun too. Maybe I will create more in the future.

JAVA WEB APPS
I really hate web pages that have a Java web app on them. Especially since the days of being able to run them are going to be going away shortly. Currently, Firefox ESR 52 32-bit allows you to run them, but once they move the ESR to the next version the ability to run them goes away. HTML5 pages are much better, to bad legacy network gear (I’m looking at you old HP ProCurve at work) will never be updated……

Port Forwarding
Well, port forwarding in RouterOS is way different then any other router I’ve used so far. Tonight I’m hoping I have enough time to figure out what I did wrong so I can get the ports I need to forward forwarded out.

Cute Shoveling Helper
Last night we got around 6” of snow. Since the plow company doesn’t get everything we have to shovel some of the snow. Well today Lucas decided he wanted to help me. He did a good job until the end when he started to get distracted. I can however say that he was a super cute helper.
