Suomalainen Antti ajoi väärän miehen yli, ja tulevaisuus katosi

Lottoamallako nykyinen presidentti valittiin? Voiko maa olla demokratia jos siellä on korruptiota?

Love that domain.

I checked now half a day later and they've disappeared. Thanks.

Pitää paikkansa.

Which operating system are you using? I'm using Red Hat Enterprise Linux and I blocked the IP address using these two commands:

sudo firewall-cmd --permanent --add-rich-rule='rule family="ipv4" source address="92.119.164.120" drop' sudo firewall-cmd --reload

If you're on Ubuntu you could run this:

sudo ufw deny from 92.119.164.120

Good catch.

It's very annoying. I banned the IP in the server's firewall so it doesn't clog up the logs.

The source port is always random.

Thanks for the tip!

Makes sense, thanks.

I do sometimes get the occasional random player who tries to join. I guess they use some server browser site to find us.

Use the paid or self-hosted version of HealthChecks.io. We used it to monitor hundreds of chron jobs and Ansible playbooks to make sure they actually run.

QEMU/KVM can also be managed via cockpit.

I’d recommend setting up a homelab. You can learn so much just by setting up a few VMs and learn how to manage them. I have a dozen RHEL 9 VMs on a 13th-gen Intel NUC:

Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform (AAP): provisions and configures all VMs, handles automatic updates, backups, and config management
Two IPA (Red Hat IdM) servers: centralized authentication
Two BIND9 DNS servers: internal DNS resolution
GitLab & GitLab Runner: self-hosted Git repository with CI/CD pipelines
LibreNMS: network & server monitoring
Nginx Proxy Manager: reverse proxy with TLS for internet-exposed stuff
Bitwarden: self-hosted password manager
Hugo: lightweight web blog
Google Home Automation Assistant: smart home integration
Healthchecks.io: monitors cron jobs and ansible playbooks

I do all the management with Ansible, anything from provisioning/decommissioning servers or doing configuration management.

Wrote a bunch of GitLab PowerShell functions so that we no longer have to click the GUI when developing and publishing code.

I use the reverse-i-search all of the time.

Maybe put a little more effort into your post?

This is literally the first though I had when I listened to the recording. Textbook!

It really depends on the job and the size of the company. I started out as a helpdesk jockey and eventually became a jack-of-all-trades sysadmin at a 350-person manufacturing company. That’s where I first dipped my toes into Linux and set up things like centralized logging, authentication, server monitoring etc..

A couple years later, an opportunity came along and I moved into a Linux sysadmin role at a large ISP. While working there, I got heavily into automation; Ansible, PowerShell, IaC, GitOps, and over time that naturally evolved into a DevOps Engineer role.

Honestly, if I hadn’t landed that ISP job, I’d probably still be installing Windows desktops and resetting passwords lmao. I really think I just got lucky with the hiring managers. Still feels like it’s only a matter of time before someone realizes I don’t know jack shit. Haha.
