Next time I try to install a server, I should check if the Ethernet cable is not broken.

😐

Le server setup 😊 (laptop is one as well)

try Proxmox again?

How many servers you got?

@linuxxx ohh, I see. There it is :)

@jakobev The laptop and the dedicated one under that :)

@linuxxx is the one underneath a "professional" server system?

@jakobev Yeah that's an actual HP Proliant server :)

@linuxxx okay thats cool 👍

haha

Is that an Apple desktop pc I see?

@linuxxx, is that a Zelotes mouse?

@Gerrymandered Yup I bought it once for one purpose: as a sitting thing. It still works ;)

@DewWisp Cheap ass Maxxter mouse haha

@linuxxx I've got a power mac G3 as well! Great stuff, mac os 9 and all

ESXi! DO IT! VMWARE MASTERRACE

@n3xus If it's closed source - nope ;)

And you're going to run that 24/7 at your place? Electricity must be cheap where you stay

@LrdShaper It's not but I need to be able to develop my skillset further and its my hobby!

Hobbies are always justifiable. Enjoy your toys, I hope the fans don't keep you up

I recently got a decent basic end to end network tester with a crimper and a bunch of connectors for like 10 bucks shipped on banggood.com. You could see if they still have that deal. It's not the highest end stuff but it's well worth 10USD just to be able to test lan connections thru walls or just test cables, and then repair instead of buying replacements! You might have that stuff already, but if not it's a good deal! :)

Couple weeks back, I was installing a new server in a new office.

Turns out, two of the four ethernet cables were crossover cables.
