As I’m not very skilled with sysadmin stuff
You sound pretty skilled to me. What an awesome update. Thank you for sharing.
@irmadlad A sysadmin is someone who works hard days and nights, with configurations written by hand, and documentation all around. Working all night till things work as they want them to.
I'm not a sysadmin, I'm asking for help every moment, I'm always afraid to break everything down.
Be that as it may, you’re still sysadmin. In fact, you’re the whole IT dept for your network. LOL Chief cook and bottle washer, as it were. Don’t worry about asking for help either. You’re in the right place for this sort of thing.
@irmadlad I'm scared to do something unrecoverable...
I’ve had to lean on backups many a time. It’s one of the reasons I make them and test them in a VM, because my dim brain coupled with fat fingers are a disaster waiting to happen.
