Oh boy – I was not ready for a hit like that. But let me start with the whole picture, shall we? I do run a central syslog using graylog and I tend to ship my logs to that device for easier searching and poking around in those. No big deal until I looked at my DNS traffic […]
ccache on kernels
As I am building debian packages of recent kernels, I have to build the same thing over and over again – pretty much three times to be exact. Once for ‘vanilla’, second time for virtual machines and third time for gameservers using the gentoo patchset. If you check back on my post about ccache on gentoo you might […]

Da nun WD beschlossen hat, ihre WD-Red Series gegen die Wand zu fahren nebst einiger anderer Dinge wie inkorrekte Angaben bei Platten oder SMR, kamen bei mir neue Iron Wolf Pro Platten von Seagate für den Austausch in meinen MicroServer. Um meinen Pool […]
