Hello visitors looking for Koos van den Hout,
my homepage lives at http://idefix.net/~koos/ where
you find more about me including what I write about IPv6.
idefix.net
idefix.net is my private domain name. Used primarily to have a private domain
name not related to any (current or past) employer, to name a certain machine
which was 'idefix' since 1994 'idefix.net' and to have the possibility to add
subdomains. The name 'idefix.net' is purely chosen from the machine name
'idefix' which was the name of the first unix machine I installed myself at
work (back when a 486dx33 with 8 Mb made a decent Linux server). Back when
hostnames that ended in -ix where a nice theme for unix servers.
There is also a webserver (otherwise you would not have read this), reachable
as idefix.net. This gives me a good (short) placeholder
for my homepage:
http://idefix.net/~koos/ or
page.idefix.net which will redirect to
the same page but is an easier url in audio (podcasts, phone).
I registered the name idefix.net in August 2000 when it finally became
available again. It expired in May 2000 after it had been registered to
someone else (living not too far away from me) for a couple of years so
I decided to wait (and
check whois from a script daily for the domain to become available).
