| I need money! I have a resume posted here: | I was actively involved in the Personal Telco Project from about 2000 to 2006, building and deploying dozens of nodes and serving in an official capacity as the project's Network Engineer during DarrinEden's term as president. I moved to San Diego from 2008 to 2010, and grew apart from the project during that time, but in February 2011 I returned to Portland and began getting reacquainted with the project. |

| * 2005.05.02: Still hacking web stuff after midnight. Checked up on PTP's web statistics; they all seem to be working okay, but the data is terribly stale from being neglected. Consider writing a simple script to keep them fresh by polling. Noted, neither alitheia or cornerstone HTTPS is using an SSL certificate from the PTP CA, and when first I looked, cornerstone HTTPS was entirely disabled. I've brought it back up and it seems to be working again. Replaced a few of the Subversion checkouts which had been damaged by repository corruption issues. Cleaned up quite a few crufty, unused, old Web configuration bits from Subversion. Implemented most of the cool features described in http://plone.org/documentation/tutorial/plone-apache working, although configured somewhat differently than described there. Created a couple of 'PTPnet domains' (as if .ptp were an Internet TLD) and set them up with zones and Apache virtual hosts for development and testing purposes. Spent some time hacking PTPnet itself - fixed what is currently my 'primary VPN router', herod, by enabling IP forwarding, then added routes to myself from all three of the core servers, and tested them. Set up Smokeping to monitor the routes I can reach. Thoughts of dynamic routing quickly become urgent, but I'd really rather not break any of the existing network, so I'm going to hold off on that for now - and work on setting up a testbed. Updated checkmate, and tweaked a number of important things, getting much closer to a potential Metrix image. Got most of the dynamic routing testbed ready, including adding another node to the tunnel network. Hacked on io, trying to make it halfway usable; still haven't succeeded. Back at it in the afternoon; pushed the HistoricMississippiCommunityNetwork forward a bit, getting Metrix equipment ordered, then finished up the majority of the configuration on buick, the border gateway. Chatted with AaronBaer and JimmySchmierbach about PTPnet DNS structure and node code deployment. Started dealing with email in the early evening. Updated quite a few nodes - right up through midnight. | * I operate [[NodeTB]] at my parents' house and NodeElsewhere at my home. |

* 2005.05.01: FF3 in the morning. Spent most of the afternoon working on my own website, including a great deal of mucking around with DNS, iptables, Apache 2 and Plone. Updated local systems. Extracted a couple of old workstations from storage and searched them for a file, but didn't find it. Updated them as well, anyway, then put them back into storage. Rolled over old entries from this page to KeeganQuinnAttic. Today is one month from the day I got reliable Internet connectivity here at the house! Some kind of celebration is probably in order. Moved info into ["NodeTB"] and ["NodeTB151"] wiki pages, and updated them a bit. FF1 in the early evening. Got io booted up again and a RoofNet filesystem image downloaded onto it. Fixed a long-standing but minor information disclosure vulnerability in bone's webserver configuration. Put in several hours of nonstop work on web statistics and redirections, right up through midnight. * 2005.04.30: Installed a NIC each in doublebubble and zoe. Updated local systems. Researched Plone and set it up on oxygen. * 2005.04.29: Just after midnight, installed Debian base on a NuCAB named zoe at JimmySchmierbach's request, then spent a few of the morning's small hours finishing up the installation of io. RobertPetersen seems to think I'm "getting back in the game." I suppose he could be right... Headed into town with Robert in the mid-afternoon, seeking NICs. Found a couple at TomHiggins' house, along with a UPS for cornerstone. * 2005.04.28: Haven't been doing much with the web lately. Still connected (quite reliably) to the Linksys Community Network node which I discovered on the 1st. Early afternoon, installed Debian base on a NuCAB named doublebubble at RobertPetersen's request. Robert then stopped by, with one of DarrinEden's RoofNet-ized Netgear APs and a set of 1.44MB floppy disks, which I began using to install Debian base on an ancient Toshiba notebook now named io. Also mucked around with embedded hardware through the evening. * 2005.04.05: Awoke to discover that my Subversion working copies are quite broken, all complaining about checksum mismatches at various different points. Grumbled about this for a while, then set out to discover the extent of the problem, and figure out what needs to be done about it. * 2005.04.04: Finished tweaking ra, started catching up on e-mail. RobertPetersen stopped by briefly, and we collectively failed to configure a fairly ancient Teletronics WL2000S (or something like that) access point. * 2005.04.03: Continued burning backups of studio material to CD, then ran out of CDs. Spent most of the day configuring a Sun Ultra 5 workstation, named ra, for use as my home desktop. * 2005.04.02: Continued burning backups of studio material to CD throughout the day. Headed to RobertPetersen's apartment in the late afternoon, then went to AaronBaer's BBQ. * 2005.04.01: Aimed my Andrew 24dBi parabolic grid antenna a few degrees to the West and found a new Linksys Community Network with Internet access. Retreived a few much-needed software packages. Updated local systems. Began burning backups of studio material to CD. * 2005.03.02: Continued final preparations for decommissioning bone in the night, offline. Online at JimmySchmierbach's starting in the early afternoon. Cleared the administrative request queue for the commit mailing list. Restored the Subversion repository to working order. Moved master DNS service from bone to cornerstone. * 2005.03.01: Online in the evening. Updated local systems, synchronized working copies and caught up on PTP e-mail. Took care of final preparations for a massive shift of services away from bone, which will begin tomorrow. * Previous entries have been moved to the attic: see KeeganQuinnAttic. === Related Pages === [[FullSearch()]] |

Hello, I'm Keegan Quinn.
Professionally, I am a software and systems consultant. Personally, I'm a strongly-opinionated Portlander with a passion for music and a taste for great beer. If you'd like to know more about me, check out my blog. I can also be found on Google+, Twitter and Facebook.
