As of 2017-??? hindenburg's only disk has failed and the new server is a used hetzner machine running much of the same on much more overpowered hardware. A study in minimalism, foiled by spinning rust. The new machine has RAID-1 at least.

Services and technologies
Quite a long list for such a low-powered machine, part of the reason for this is that I want to see how much I can actually run here with reasonable performance:
- mail: Sendmail, dovecot, mimedefang, spamassassin, roundcube
- xmpp: prosody running inside luajit
- ircd: inspircd
- files: FreeBSD ftpd, rsyncd, both low-traffic enough to be run from inetd
- webchat: qwebirc behind nginx
- http: nginx, php-fpm, mysql
- packet filter: pf
- local DNS forwarder: unbound
- various: FreeBSD inetd, KAME dhcp6c, Mediawiki, letsencrypt, jails, OpenSSHd, newsyslog,
UFS without softupdates ZFS, ezjail

Recent changes
- ????-??-??: Aliens have eaten my brain.
- 2016-02-28: Replaced lighttpd completely by nginx, switched everything over to letsencrypt
- 2016-11-03: Replaced last remaining instance of old SSL setup (mail services) over to letsencrypt
Planned
- Mailman 3? I've switched away from mlmmj because it was fairly horrible and now switched to plain aliases based mailing lists, which is also fairly horrible, but a bit less.
- Web interfaces for git/hg/svn/darcs?
- ikiwiki?
- dokuwiki?
- replace sendmail by opensmtpd
