Having some routing issues tonight, first v4 and now v6, probably related to earlier maintenance stuff
We're back on the primary IPv4 link now so hopefully redundancy etc works, the switch back worked without glitch at least
IPv4 is back but redundancy is not enabled/working, so there might be some more disconnects coming

Server overview 2021
I haven’t really talked about the backend infrastructure for Blinkenshell in a long time, so I thought I would give an update on the servers/VMs that are currently running as of now. Most people probably think it’s just a shell … Continue reading

This morning at about 05.00AM the CPU fan in the server broke down, causing the system to shut down. Fortunately, I was visiting my parents this weekend (where the server is at), so I managed to fix it and boot … Continue reading
