well i’m back agian

bit of a re-structure there, which explains the unexpected downtime.. now things are better than before.

what have i done?

simply put, i’ve perfomed a much needed os upgrade on my nextcloud box.. that was a bit behind, now on debian.

i’ve pulled it behind my DMZ and have an explicit reverse proxy box (hence the url change) this box does nothing but proxy requests to another box.. so it should be easy to automate patching.

what hapened in the interim

well, i’ve also been playing with ansible.

not much success so far, but eventually i will be doing system rebuilds using it my fleet of machines is finally big enough to use something.. but it needs to be able to cope with a lack of standardisation.

it’s a lot of up front work now, to allow me to be lazy later.

eventually full system migrations will be managed by ansible

so, yeah
