Who am I?
I am a computer engineer from the Isle of Man and have been working in the ISP arena since 1999.
Having been with my current employer Domicilium (IOM) Ltd since 2004 I enjoy the many varied aspects of the job and the tasks given to me.
In my spare time, I like to fix vintage computers. I have a collection of Apple Macintosh hardware as well as several Commodore Amigas. You can read more about that here. retro-mann.online
Background
Working for service providers since the age of fifteen, I have built a solid foundation in networked computer systems. I have experience with desktop and server-based operating systems such as Novell Netware, Windows NT and Unix.
In 1999 I helped build an ISP with a colleague in my spare time. I transferred full-time to the ISP which gave me in-depth exposure to IP and core ISP services such as DNS and SMTP.
I have skills relevant to the current versions of Microsoft IIS, Apache, NGINX and SQL. As well as firewall and VPN technologies.
As a showcase this site is hosted on my own private cloud using the popular KVM Linux hypervisor.
