Back online
Up and running with the firewall on the new box, sakura.bithose.com. The new OpenBSD 3.6 install is performing great, haven't seen any hardware bugginess pop up in the console messages so far.

I love Sun hardware when it is behaving itself, which is most of the time. This particular box has run 24/7 for the better part of 8 years (it had Solaris 2.4 on it when I turned it on!) so it's well burned-in by now. Maybe after kerochan is back together again I'll think about putting a new(er) hard disk in this box, since that's the one thing liable to eventually die. The inside of the box is so clean, it looks like the fans have never seen a speck of dust in their lives. So that much seems to be really solid.

The major issues I think are resolved well enough for me to go to sleep finally. Tomorrow I'll see about getting VPN tunnels running and DHCP tested.
