[edit] History

TonyB's Lan is estimated to be the 4,574,578,528,456th greatest thing on the planet. Of course, this estimation was made by communists, and it is widely accepted to be closer to the 6,458,500th greatest thing on the planet - but this estimation is thought to have been made by mice, when in fact - these mice were really communists. As a result of all the communist propaganda attempting to lower the status of TonyB's Lan, it's actual position on the list of the greatest things on the planet are still mostly unknown. TonyB's Lan was originally founded in the late 60's, by drunken and high hippies - after they realized what they created was not, in fact, a toaster (which was what they were, at the moment, attempting to create) - they took some pot, and smoked it until it WAS a toaster (from their points of view, anyway...). The original name of TonyB's Lan was, obviously, Toaster - After the hippies all died out in the great hippie slaughter of 1982 (perpetrated by the NAACP, for reasons unknown to anybody) - Toaster was taken over by the government of Cuba - who renamed it ToasterNet, then renamed it CastroNet, then just Castro, and finally CastroIsGodAllWillObeyHimNet. During the Cuban War on Terror (which was not, in fact, a war - it just had war in the name), the Americans decided it would be very important to protect CastroIsGodAllWillObeyHimNet, so they stole it and renamed it to AmeriNet - after verifying that it contained no Weapons of Mass Destruction. The former communist control of the network is the most likely cause for all the negative communist propaganda against the network. In 1995 - AmeriNet was stolen by tonyb (using only a tube sock and a bit of goldfish food), and then renamed it to its current name, TonyB's Lan. When Fidel Castro stepped down in 2008^[1], his successor (also Castro) has sworn he will get TonyB's Lan's back eventually. So far the Automatic Defense System has taken care of all the approching Cubans. In the event TonyB's Lan is in danger, the secondary defense system has been shown to obliterate all living, nonliving, and anthropomorphic creatures within a reasonable radius while sparing individuals pretagged.

[edit] Boxen

The box that acts as the main router is Vector - this runs Debian GNU/Linux with Xen on it, and is also known as vector.cluenet.org. This box hosts all the services on tonybox.net (such as paste.tonybox.net and blog.tonybox.net), and a ClueNet IRC node. Vector has dual core Pentium D at 3.2GHz. TonyBox is tonyb's main workstation - it has an nVidia GeForce 7600GS with 512mb video ram, dual monitors, a quad core Core 2 Quad Q6600 at 2.4GHz, and is blue and shiny. This box hosts workstation.tonybox.net. The Fonera router is the WiFi AP on TonyB's Lan, it runs DD-WRT and is bridged to TonyB's Lan. Nokia 770 is the (aptly named) Nokia 770 that often connects to the WiFi portion of TonyB's Lan.

[edit] Notes

Information in History Section has not been independently verified, and does not cite any references.
Cluenet does not claim any responsibility for the mental health of Tonyb. The accident was entirely unrelated to network activities and Tonyb has been convinced to not press charges.
Tonyb was last seen executing an escape plan and successfully escaping from a psychiatric hospital using only a sock, a bluetooth headset, 30 grams of homemade C4 (made with another sock and an empty water bottle!), a block of lead, 30 sheets of paper, a makeshift grappling hook (made with yet another sock, a Cat6 cable, and a bit of gunpowder), a funny hat, a stack of 100 linux CDs, a telephone, wire clippers, and his aspire one netbook.
Tonyb may not be around to fix problems with his network due to recent events. His whereabouts are currently unknown and have been since the psychiatric nurses chased him to the far reaches of UnderNet where they lost him due to the large crowd of denial of service bots.
