## Standing items (brief)
### Visibly reinduct members new (and old?) with the "Wheel Group Ethical Guidelines"
- examining an Ethical Guideline, e.g. asking:
- What's an example situation in which it could be encountered?
- What other guidelines or rules could it conflict with? How would
one resolve it?
### Status check: Regular updates, monitoring
- cloud-mooneye: we'll now start getting charged for it (as of 2021-01-10)
- See how much it costs running it for a month
- We could also sign up for a new AWS account using a new card
and/or email address, and get another free year
- UCC does have >1 credit card
- We could also try another cloud service altogether
- [NTU] says about ~$0.50/day cost.
- e.g. Debian oldstable 9 "stretch" -> Debian stable 10 "buster"
- find candidates on ocsinventory
- has it stopped reporting versions in Debian 10?

## New Matters
## Matters arising previously
- ACTION: xxx, who hasn't tried it recently?: Set and verify reminders of next meeting: `motsugo# crontab -e`
- [TPG] Reports it is working well
- ACTION: [MPT] to look at `meetings.ucc.asn.au`: broken, reporting a nginx 404?
- nothing to do with proxying - issue reproducible using elinks on Motsugo
- Reboot hasn't fixed it (it did have "reboot-required" following an update, so maybe that broke it)
- ACTION: [333] re-run `john` password checker and properly finish the job
- ACTION: [333] to rotate some more IPMI passwords, making sure to let
wheel know as a heads-up
- ACTION: [MTL] to look at uccpass and see if a nice report on password age can be generated
- ACTION: DONE? [MTL]+[MPT] poking zonemake.py and its API-driven replacements and children
- Next steps are:
- to build new authoritive and resolving DNS servers
- move off of mooneye to a CI/CD setup off gitlab.ucc.asn.au
- ACTION: Still TODO: [MTL] to look at UCC web reverse proxies
- ACTION: [MPT] UWA IT liason: matrix test domain
- ACTION: [MPT] update https://wiki.ucc.asn.au/Network with latest traffic paths
- ACTION: [TEC] to look at dashboards for murasoi network traffic
- [NTU] can it capture when bulk TCP resets are sent by upstream connection-tracking routers?
- graph the age of existing non-LAN connections, look for spikes to zero?
- graph new connections, look for spikes?
