Work In Progress

Since 2000 I've been working for Juniper Networks in Sunnyvale CA.

Needless to say my day job consumes most of my time...

I'm a committer to both the FreeBSD and NetBSD projects.

Private hacking includes tools to organize my digital photos.

Speaking

BSDCan 2011 Building BSD in meta mode

BSDCan 2014 FreeBSD bmake and meta mode

BSDCan 2018 Adding verification to FreeBSD loader

BSDCan 2019 Securely controlled privilege escalations via maclabel

Others

• Bmake autoconf'd version of NetBSD make utility.

• Sandbox tools for controlling builds

• DNS Magic or how to run a big DNS and stay sane.

  Describes using make(1) to keep zone file serial numbers up to date, and SCM (CVS, git etc) and regression testing to keep you healthy.

  Works fine for small sites too, new DNSMagic.tar.gz release replaces Perl with Python.

• CONFIGS a host configuration tool.

• APC Smart-UPS monitoring scripts

Ancient history

• Secure user space NFS server/client.
• BSD r* over SSL
• Secure TELNET
• Public Domain Korn Shell

Pre-history

I did the original port of JDK 1.1 to NetBSD but lost interest when it proved impossible (impractical) to distribute JDK binaries, and Java isn't really suitable for a lot of the tools I write. Python is probably a better bet for OS independent apps.

Blatherings

Occasionally I post something in what passes for a blog
