zylone.org
I’ve had this domain since 1996. Zylone goes back even further, into the BBS days before the internet became normal, and this is its permanent little shelf on the web.
Mostly this is homelab notes, network docs, practical references, and whatever else I wanted written down. It is not a polished publication or a portfolio. I am just a nerd with a long-running domain and too many systems to remember unaided.
The pages here are written for myself first. If something is useful to someone else who wandered in from Discord or search, good enough.
