Old Motorolas, they really hate users.

Sort of. The activation license will work as long as you have it. They won’t renew support though, which effectively kills it when the support contract runs out.

Lol no, just old radios. My point is just that my requirements are pretty widely varied.

I’ve seen you recommending this here before - what’s its selling point vs say qemu-kvm? Does Incus do virtual networking without having to straight up learn iptables or whatever? (Not that there is anything wrong with iptables, I just have to choose what I can learn about)

Doesn’t mean anything right now if you are running ESXi, except you can’t reinstall ESXi unless you kept the image and you won’t get ESXi updates.

I need full on segregated machines sometimes though. I’ve got stuff that only runs in Win98 or XP (old radio programming software).

Admittedly I have not dug too deeply into Proxmox but its learning curve appears kinda steep.

Yeah I experimented with Truenas in a VM, it randomly dropped the pool. Do not do this.

Try Zoneedit. I’ve had them for years and barely glanced at them.
