Figured out the problem with the kernel: they reversed the name order of the physical ports, so lan1 was now wan. Moved the cable, everything worked. VPN software didn't, tho, so I'll fight with that later.

Spent the day fighting with the Espressobin to get it set up as a server. Got that done, finally, and found that the kernel they provide - to this device with three gigabit ethernet ports labeled lan0, lan1, and wan - doesn't include netfilter

I could have sworn I posted yesterday, but apparently not. I guess I must've acknowledged the reminder then gotten distracted? Anyway, uh.. yesterday I went to the Container Store to buy another case of their shoeboxes, which I've been using to organize my office.

Took my car to the dealership to get it appraised, because they want to buy it back. Wasn't serious about selling it, of course, but if the number was right, I'd be willing to think about it at least. While there, I asked the

Started with more video games. Went to Everett for lunch because of a craving. Worked on Eniac some more. Got it generating zonefiles the way I want, including reverse lookups. I might swap some of its output into production this week to see how
