Hi Andrew-<br>
<br>
Yes I have a crimper & ends, but standard practice is to put a
jack on each end of a cable (rather than a plug) and then use a
patch cord (which can be as short as 6" or as long as needed) to the
device at each end.<br>
<br>
Crimping plugs onto twisted pair cable isn't recommended because
twisted pair solid conductor wire should be fastened permanently in
place and not subjected to flexing etc., otherwise the cable can
downgrade or the plugs can go faulty. If the door device has an
Ethernet jack on it and will be permanently mounted, then it's safe
to crimp a plug onto that end of the wire. <br>
<br>
I'm sure I have some Cat5 jacks around, I'll look. <br>
<br>
At some point we can discuss doing the whole patch panel thing
upstairs. <br>
<br>
Meanwhile tonight I have some diagrams to produce for a client...
more stuff about door stuff! For some weird reason I've gotten
stuck in a "door stuff" groove recently. It must be the squirrels.
The answer to many puzzling coincidences is "squirrels."<br>

sorry for YELLING, but this is critical to sudo

I just spent some time updating all the software,
fixing some<br>
networking issues, and disabling services on the raspi
in question. It<br>
had a full X server + desktop environment booting by
default, even<br>
with no display attached! So I disabled all that and
now the memory<br>
usage is much lower. I suspect the "OOM killer" was
causing these<br>
problems, which fits our experience of
features/services dropping one<br>
by one until nothing worked at all - first captive DNS
would go away,<br>
then web server would go away, then dhcpd would go
away...<br>
<br>
It works now. Maybe this time it will work a few hours
later. :)<br>
