I don't think you are becoming a burden. It's just odd timing really with a number of things all coming together. I am having to dig in very deep to figure out all of this stuff to get the ruleqa running again. It's quite frankly a mess from years of different people helping out while running on different OSes. I would like to get it going again and then standardize/consolidate everything in a logical manner soon.

Kevin is busy so I will help finish off your onboarding steps. I think you are close. I think Keven opened a Jira ticket to get you added to sa-vm1.apache.org. Can you SSH into it with your SSH key? If so, can you sudo to root using OPIE?

What time zone are you in? I will try to give you a call this afternoon after I am off work. I am in Dallas, TX (Central).

When I took the Unix Admin position where I work now it sort of went like

They gave me a workstation, direct root access to all servers and routers
in the network and more or less said have at it and thats what I have been
doing for the last 13 years with a few bumps along the way.

This created a shell around me that I am trying to break, almost an anxiety
shell of leaving my always root home. Always dealing with the same people
and so on.

Breaking into OpenSource to help with the skills that I have seemed to be
the best way to break that shell. Though I feel at this point I am becoming
more of a burden than a help since I have yet do do anything though between
everyone else at least half of the system seems to be up.

Does anyone see anything else that I am missing in my on-boarding steps.
