Welcome to my blog

I’m Abhishek Yerraguntla, and welcome to my patch of the Internet (you can call me Abhi). I’m learning security, exploring Microsoft tech, and diving into networking. Here’s where I share what I break, fix, and figure out.

A Rust server for free?

The motive Implementing proxmox, buying server parts, and spending countless hours troubleshooting and learning stuff that is constantly breaking can be tiresome , but it also comes with actual perks like hosting servers, webpages or whatever other niche stuff there is that I am oblivious to.

Since I’ve already put a lot of “about me” content on my About page, I won’t repeat that here. Instead, let’s talk a little about what this site is made of and what you can expect from it. ...
