Some of the gear for the move-the-rack project has arrived. The Unifi US-8-150 has been configured and so has the AP-AC-LITE. The Unifi controller makes that easy. Later today, some cat53 cables & keystone jacks will arrive.

Tuesday, a US-8-60W and some Wiremold conduit will arrive.

Thursday, the stacking hardware for the washer/dryer arrives. Coincidentally, so does the the electrician, to install the 20A outlets.

Measuring, I'll need 2x30ft lengths of cat5e cable. 1 used, 1 spare. It will be exposed to the outside, but possibly in conduit.

If it's in conduit, does it have to be anything special? Just usual cat5e cable should suffice?

Now that summer is here, I have given thought to moving the rack to the basement. Here are my thoughts so far, but I have no idea yet if I'm going through with this.

I've upgraded the bsd.network instance to v2.4.0rc3.

**AS PART OF THIS UPDATE I HAD TO ROLL THE 2FA CODES! *** Your two-factor auth codes have been deleted, and will need to be re-created. If I already manually rolled yours, it's been rolled again. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Do you have 2FA enabled here? Do you dare log out and make sure it works? Mine is very upset and not letting me in via 2FA.

One laptop got logged out. I'm typing this from a long-established session.
