Draft Stratum 1 Microserver HOWTO is up

[Dan Poirot]

Hey Hal,

While we are in it, up to our ears, regarding setup and operation...

Is there a consensus on DDNS? There are a few services which offer 'free
dynamic DNS service':
	http://www.noip.com/
	http://www.xname.org/
	http://freedns.afraid.org/ 

...and the delightful
	https://www.duckdns.org/ 

Would it make sense to bake DDNS registration into the recipe and move away
from IP numbers?


Following that train of thought - all the way to the crash site - how about
certificates?
	https://letsencrypt.org/

Baking in certs from the 'reference' free CA may also be a Good Idea, no?

I thought part of the goal was to get more pool servers.  That needs a fixed
IP Address.

I thought you avoided needing zeroconf by requiring a display and kbd on the
SBC.

If you are assuming zeroconf, I think that should be pointed out very early.

Are there any other assumptions that might not be obvious?
