hostname -i on cb.vu says the IP address is 78.31.70.238, but if you ping a host from the interface, the pings originate from 178.33.34.4 (according to tcpdump).

Bro Pages (instead of "man" pages) is a similar resource I find myself using surprisingly often http://bropages.org/browse

Damn, I remember the HN thread about that. The derailing was phenomenal. Interesting that the project lives on.

I love the "why not try this" attitude of your comment.

Is this due to an LB fronting?

It was on my bookmarks for a long time. I thought it would be nice to share with you guys. There are so many times I do searches on HN to recall about some nice things I've seen oh the web... Quite often, the comments are the gems!

Yeah I found this via HN a couple years ago. This along with the following links will help anyone getting into sysadmin work:

just tried out to install bro pages with a fresh ruby 2.2.1 from rvm on OS X and got this reproducable. Seems broken for me:

    $ bro curl
    The curl command isn't in our database.
