Hello, and welcome to my website!
My name is Ethan Paul, and I am an engineering student at Worcester Polytechnic Institute studying Mechanical Engineering. I am an avid outdoorsman, a former Boy Scout, and can make a mean omlette (if I do say so myself). I'm also a Type 1 Diabetic working on joining the DIY Pancreas and OpenOmni projects.
I do lots of things! I work at WPI Network Operations and spent three years as an intern for the SolidWorks Corporation. I also enjoy programming, fixing my aging car, urban and trail hiking, and squeezing extra life out of decrepit technology.
The ENPaul Network is a homelab environment designed, created, and maintained by me. To be clear: the things I do with my servers are completely unnecessary and wholly ridiculous, but I do them anyway because they're fun! See the Network Section to learn more.
The ENPaul Network provides a number of services for entertainment, reference, security, and productivity.
To learn more about the network as a whole, please read the docs.
Active Directory Domain Services (ADDS) provides federated user authentication, administration, and security for my servers and workstations.
The Virtual Private Networking (VPN) server, powered by Softether, allows me to secure my network traffic from anywhere in the world.
Local cloud storage allows for secure storage of my data. Online access is provided by the Improved File Manager and Apaxy.
GitLab is a git-based source control service for collaborative project development and deployment.
Any system is only as good as its documentation. My docs, powered by MkDocs, are constantly being updated.
Plex is a media management solution for sharing my personal movies, TV, music, and photos with friends and family.
Having trouble accessing a network service? Soon you'll be able to check my network's status online and let me know if there are problems!
