Projects

My homelab, security labs, troubleshooting notes and programming work.

Homelab

I’m connecting a Raspberry Pi NAS, an Ubuntu server, Linux workstations and client devices into a lab I can keep expanding.

Raspberry Pi NAS

Shared storage built with a Raspberry Pi and an external hard drive. I use it to learn storage administration, permissions, file sharing and networking.

Linux home server

Older desktop hardware repurposed as an Ubuntu server for Linux administration, containers and self-hosted services, including Jellyfin and Portainer.

Security and recovery

Cowrie SSH honeypot

I deployed Cowrie on a Raspberry Pi, tested controlled connections from another machine and reviewed authentication and session logs. The setup involved troubleshooting Linux services and port conflicts.

Arch Linux boot recovery

I recovered an Arch Linux environment by checking partitions and EFI files, repairing the boot path and correcting the EFI boot order.

Python

Small scripts and exercises in parsing, command-line workflows and repeatable tasks. I’m working toward useful log-parsing and system-administration tools.

Next steps

Network segmentation, central logging and a detection lab are the next additions I want to explore.
