Weeve @ gentoo hooked me up with an account on a Sun T2K and I’ve started a tinderbox run over there.
The repo is pretty small in size right now (343 pkgs) but will be growing over time. I can see right now I’ve got lots of bugs to file and poking to do as this arch is lacking behind in stable keyword markings for a lot of standard packages in addition to lots of packages failing that are marked stable. But it will be a while before I can really dive head on into this as I’m moving next week.

Howto: hardened loghost with Splunk (OSL Style)
Corey Shields over at Open Source Labs wrote an interesting peice on remote sysloging and hardened in his Life according to Corey blog.
It’s a well written practical use of hardened in the real world. I’m quite pleased it’s working out so well for OSL. I hope other major universities and the private sector can learn from their experiences.
