I'm quite the self-hosting fiend. That's well-established, at this point, but I wanted to go into some of the details about my recent adventures, exposing SSH service to both my GitLab and Gitea servers.

To host my home services, I need to be able to have a dynamic-DNS, and to do that, I've been using DuckDNS (a great service, by the way), but it's time that I start getting more serious, and remove theCNAME from my domain, and get something a little more proper. But... to do that, I'll need my public IP. Good thing my ISP-provided-router displays that on the front page! Now, it's time for just a little Python...

It's spring; time for spring cleaning, right? Well, that's even more true if you've got half a dozen servers all floating around, waiting to be used. So I think it's about time that I get some of my new servers mounted in the basement to improve the general usage of my resources!
