The goof formerly known as TimshelKnoll ...
I was TimshelKnoll, but am now married and in possession of a double-barrel nameI live at NodeDDE in Footscray. Yes, Timshel is a wierd name, but it's my real name, so don't abuse it
.I'm a final year (yes... or at least I'm telling myself that this is my final one) Computer Science student at
RMIT. Until recently, when I converted to using and working on NetBSD, I was a Debian GNU/Linux developer/maintainer, and have been hooked onLinux and BSD *nix stuff since my first RedHat
3.3 install in '97. As well as being a Melbourne Wireless member, I'm a member of
Linux Users of Victoria. My povo student status means that I'm taking my time getting enough stuff together to build my node. :-(I've got an Enterasys card and RICOH PCI cradle and am currently working on a Waveguide Cantenna using a Golden Circle juice can. Read NodeDDE for more details.
TODO
- Do more testing / playing
- Finish building and test some home-brew cantennas - I do the "other" sort of home brewing, so I want to test how homebrew kit cans go as cantennas ...
- Build a dedicated box
- Read up on and play around with various protocols, including OSPF (Zebra / Quagga) and IPSEC (FreeS/WAN)
- Get up on the roof and set up some kind of antenna mast. My housemate actually scored a 12M mast from somewhere, but I think it's too tall to legally use without a permit. I'm not sure how long I'll be in my current house, either, so might wait and see what the next house provides ...
- Borrow a digital camera and put up some photos from my roof ...
