I have my wife and her mother in the kitchen talking about growing up and all kinds of other things like family tend to do. Meanwhile I have been trying to plan my drive to Phoenix and then over to the people's republic for a couple weeks to help my father with his floor and cabinets. I did manage to not have to pick my step daughter up and bring her back with me so there I get to save about 3000 miles of driving but I still have to take the dog with me.
I just finished up a small FreeNAS so that my step daughter in Phoenix will have access to a Plex and some stuff to watch as well as a VPN connection so I can handle any repairs. Meanwhile I have been TRYING to get my router up and running without any hitches. Using pfSense and setup Snort for filtering out all the crap since IPV6 is up and running Squid so I can save a little bandwidth with three adults each with a computer as well as three phones and three tablets not to mention the FreeNAS and finally pfBlockerNG to filter out the ad servers to save a little more bandwidth and prevent all the Malvertising from making it through along with "Windows telemetry". Figuring out exactly how to setup Snort has been a PAIN and some weird problems seem to pop up every now and then, at one point some sort of incorrect http_inspect no length error from OKshooters was even killing my access here. Hopefully everything is up and running well enough to not have any problems when I leave in a couple days.
I need a vacation... And sadly where I am going I am not likely to get it.
