Yeah the Hakme project isn’t dead, good things take time folks.  The garage is finally networked, and i’ll be getting stuff online this week.  Main priority is figuring out what to use for a firewall box.  I’m going to give a bunch of stuff a try, from pfSense to m0n0wall, and others.  Once I am confident that I can expose a server to be attacked without too much fear of someone breaking into my personal computers, things will start rolling a bit smoother.  Obviously I am not going to be able to protect against the most elite hackers out there, but hopefully they’ll have better fish to fry.
